1
I'm sure we've all noticed this in our school.
2
A student sitting alone at lunch,
3
staring across the room like an astronaut lost in space.
4
All around are other kids,
5
happily chatting, laughing, and maybe even sharing food in their own circles of friendship.
6
Sadly, not everyone has friends.
7
And not everyone belongs in circles of friendship.
8
Some of us are quietly facing loneliness and challenges that make us feel different.
9
Today, I want to talk about something that's really close to my heart.
10
Friendships and making friends.
11
But not just any friends.
12
Friends who don't look like us,
13
talk like us, or maybe even have a disability.
14
Now, I know what you might be thinking.
15
I already have friends.
16
Why should I make more friends?
17
it's easier to stick with my friends right now.
18
It's easier, but not better.
19
Because what if that lonely person was you?
20
Sitting alone at recess, struggling to connect with others because of who you are and what you can or cannot do.
21
It's definitely not a great feeling.
22
But guess what?
23
We have the incredible power to change that.
24
You have the incredible power to change that because each of us can create a world where everyone is accepted,
25
loved and included.
26
So today, we're embarking on a mission to reach out and touch more lives.
27
He'll explore the wonders of inclusion,
28
empathy, and education to spread kindness and make friends in a world that sometimes feels a little too lonely.
29
Let me tell you about my friend, Ben.
30
Ben is a little different from most kids in our class.
31
Sometimes he is so full of energy that he runs around in class,
32
and it makes it hard for all of us to concentrate.
33
Everybody seemed afraid of him and stayed away from him.
34
But I thought I should give him a chance.
35
And I'm so glad I did.
36
As I got to know Ben better,
37
I realized something awesome about him.
38
He was an incredible writer.
39
He could put words together in the most amazing way.
40
And his poems always sounded so beautiful.
41
Ben would write letters just for me.
42
And it made me feel so special.
43
But here's the thing.
44
Nobody else seemed to appreciate Ben's talents.
45
No one would invite him to their birthdays or include him in their group of friends.
46
It made both me and Ben really sad.
47
I knew he was such a kind person,
48
and it hurt to see him left out.
49
When it was his birthday,
50
he invited me over to his home.
51
We played some games, had some sushi.
52
Ben was so happy.
53
He felt included and valued.
54
and I felt like I had made a change in his life.
55
Being friends with Ben taught me to be inclusive,
56
which means including everyone and not leaving anyone out.
57
It means looking beyond the differences and seeing the awesomeness in each person.
58
Ben's ADHD didn't define him.
59
It was just a small part of who he was.
60
By being his friend, I showed him that he mattered and that he was seen and valued for who he truly was.
61
So no matter how different people like Ben may seem, let's be inclusive.
62
Let's open our hearts and reach out with a friendly hand.
63
Let's be open-minded and give everyone a chance to shine.
64
Next, I want to talk about my best friend, Mikayla.
65
Now, Mikayla is like super tall.
66
I mean, seriously tall.
67
When I first met her,
68
I actually thought she was the teacher's helper.
69
But when she sat down,
70
I realized that she was one of us.
71
Just like with Ben, my classmates didn't want to talk to Makayla.
72
They thought she was different because she was big and tall.
73
And it made them afraid to talk to her.
74
But I did.
75
And I'm so glad I did.
76
Because Makayla is one of the nicest people I know.
77
I also found out that she became super tall just because her parents were tall.
78
It's as simple as that.
79
It doesn't make her any less awesome or any less deserving of friendship.
80
In fact, her height is what makes her unique and special.
81
Here's the cool part.
82
Mikaela is fantastic at spelling.
83
She's like a spelling superhero.
84
Whenever I need help practicing my spelling,
85
she's right there ready to learn.
86
And she's also always so kind and generous, especially with treats.
87
Being tall, short, or anything in between doesn't define who we are.
88
It's the kindness, generosity, and unique talents we have that really matter.
89
Being friends with Michaela taught me a lot about empathy.
90
Empathy is putting yourself in someone else's shoes and understanding how they feel.
91
So let's celebrate our differences.
92
Let's spread empathy like confetti.
93
And let's create a safe place where everyone is welcomed as who they really are.
94
Finally, I want to share about my friend, Roy.
95
Roy is what some of us call a special needs student,
96
which means he learns in a different way and needs a special teacher's help.
97
It's not easy for Roy to communicate,
98
so he often feels left out.
99
there's so much more to Roy than meets the eye.
100
One thing I discovered about him is his incredible sense of humor.
101
One time during a game of Toss the Ball,
102
he did something that made us all burst into laughter.
103
He put the ball on his head and started wobbling around like a silly robot trying to entertain us.
104
We couldn't help but laugh together.
105
In that moment, I found that Roy has an amazing personality,
106
full of fun and a desire to connect with others.
107
Sadly, many people find it hard to talk to Roy.
108
They may feel uncomfortable or unsure of how to talk to him.
109
That's where education and support comes in.
110
By educating ourselves about those with special needs,
111
we can learn about different ways to communicate with them and have a greater understanding about them.
112
But more than education, we should support them.
113
We should stand up for their rights,
114
their dignity, and their happiness because everyone deserves equal opportunities.
115
So no matter how different people like Roy may seem,
116
Let's educate ourselves about those with special needs.
117
Let's stand up for them.
118
And let's be their allies and champions.
119
I am so glad to have Ben,
120
Michaela, and Roy as my friends and be a part of my life.
121
We learned so much about each other.
122
We understand the challenges we all go through.
123
And we all became a better person because of it.
124
Inclusion, empathy, education and support.
125
These are important things that can build bridges of friendships and change lives for the better.
126
So let's be inclusive and have more friends like Ben.
127
Let's practice empathy and understand what kids like Michaela are going through.
128
And let's learn more and support those like Roy,
129
who are trying so hard to keep up with the rest of us each day.
130
But more importantly, Let's take the lead and be role models for other kids.
131
Because this, this can be our superpower that can make a real change in someone's life.
132
Thank you.

Consigli per la Pratica

Per migliorare le vostre abilità linguistiche, provate a shadow speak il discorso di Emma Liu. Iniziate ascoltando il video senza cercare di parlare, per cogliere il tono e il ritmo. Poi, riproducete il video a una velocità che vi è comoda e provate a ripetere ciò che ascoltate. Ricordate di prestare particolare attenzione alle espressioni chiave e alla pronuncia. Poiché il discorso si concentra su emozioni e relazioni umane, cercate di esprimere quei sentimenti con il giusto tono e intensità. Esercitarsi in questo modo non solo migliorerà la vostra fluency, ma vi aiuterà anche a sentirvi più sicuri nel parlare di emozioni e esperienze nelle vostre conversazioni in inglese.

Con il tempo e la pratica della pratica di conversazione in inglese e del shadowspeak, sarete in grado di comunicare in modo più efficace e con maggiore sicurezza. Ricordate che ogni piccolo passo verso il miglioramento conta e che l'apprendimento può avvenire anche attraverso contenuti significativi come questo.

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.
