10
Okay, guys, we are in Montreal.

A city in Canada.
12
A city that is very interesting where they speak French and English.
13
And I am super happy because this is the first time in my life I have heard people speaking French in real life.
14
Not on my phone, not on the TV.
15
I'm super excited.
16
It's only 3 p.m.
17
right now, but we've had a long day already and some cool things have happened already.
18
So I just want to tell you guys a little bit about our day getting here and what we're going to do on this trip.
19
So the flight was really short, but we had to get up early.
20
We got up at 530 this morning and it was an hour and a half flight.
21
Super easy.
22
But after that, something interesting happened.
23
We got an Uber.
24
We got an Uber, and I was looking on the phone and it said that the driver, he spoke French and Spanish.
25
And he said yes.

And this guy was from Haiti, guys.
27
And he was a polyglot.
28
He spoke Haitian Creole.
29
He spoke French, spoke English, Portuguese and Spanish.
30
And his Spanish was super good.
31
So we got to speak a little bit, French and Spanish with him.
32
Then we, Wait.
33
That was on our first.
34
Interesting thing was it.
35
What did I do?
36
Speak your French to a lady who really understand, understood everything that you said.
37
So I got to have my first conversation in real life in French.
38
So, guys, I changed some money from United States dollars to Canadian dollars.
39
I'm going to show you those in a second.
40
But, at the airport, they have this little desk where you can give them your money and they give you back the money of the country that you're in.
41
You guys know that they're in all the airports. But, we went there and she said hello, and I said, in French, can I practice my French with you? And then she said, yes.
42
And then she started.
43
La la la la She started talking really fast, but I understood and I think I did pretty good.
44
My wife was just sitting there like.
45
I think I did pretty good.
46
I was able to tell her what my phone number was, in French.
47
I told her where we were from, and it was.
48
It was pretty cool.
49
She asked me, and I'm going to take this as a huge compliment.
50
She asked me, where are you from?
51
Are you French or from the United States?
52
So I was like, yes, proud moment guys.
53
Anyway, let's take a look at this money.
54
It's pretty cool.
55
So this is a $50 bill or cinquant dollar Canadian.
56
And guys you can see through see me.
57
This money is not like the money in the United States.
58
In the United States, it's paper, but this feels like plastic.
59
And, it's really cool.
60
It doesn't smell like money because the Colombian money smells like United States money.
61
So it's paper money.
62
Paper money smells like money.
63
No matter where you're at.
64
But this is plastic, and it has no smell.
65
If you like, if you get wet this money, it doesn't like...
66
I think you could probably put this money in water and pull it out.
67
This is a $5 bill, and I'm going to keep this one for my son, because it has a little space man on it.
68
He'll think that's super cool. Okay.
69
And then this one my wife likes the best because she's feminista.
70
And there's this I like the purple color.
71
She likes the purple color. So she opens.
72
Hey, my mom likes purple too.
73
Maybe we'll bring her one.
74
And I guess that's the money.
75
Then when we got here, we came to our hotel, but the room was not ready yet, and we were hungry, so we had to try something.
76
That is the, most famous food in Montreal, which is poutine.
77
So we ate some poutine.
78
It was. Okay, guys, I'll be honest.
79
I wish I could say it was awesome, but I think it would be great if you were drunk.
80
If you were boracho.
81
I think it would be super good.
82
It's like a good food to go with beer and partying when you've been out all night.
83
But for just normal people walking around, it's very heavy, super heavy French fries, salsa and meat and a ton of cheese.
84
It was good, but very, very heavy. So we had some poutine.
85
Now we're going to take showers, chill out for a little bit.
86
I am tired already.
87
We only slept for a few hours last night, but there's a bookstore that's really close that has food, coffee and books and I want to buy a book in French, so we're going to do that.
88
I'll talk to you guys a little later.
89
Let me go get a shower, because I don't smell that good.
90

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
