You've forgotten hundreds of words from vocabulary lists that you've studied over the years, but you haven't forgotten a single thing.
97
Anyone said to you at a hard moment in your life.
98
Maybe when your mother died or your grandfather or your child, unfortunately, in those hard moments,
99
you can remember clearly in those moments, what was said to you by those who loved you.
100
Words attached to people you love don't need to be reviewed.
101
They stick on the first pass.
102
Why?
103
Because that person already is important to you.
104
And now you're attaching words to that person.
105
This is where the language stops being an exercise and it becomes just a part of you.
106
Describing your mother, that's not a task.
107
It's not homework.
108
You're not performing English.
109
You're saying something that's true, something that's real, something that's a fact.
110
And the moment you're saying something true, the fear of making a mistake actually gets smaller.
111
We talked about fear in our last lesson.
112
Why does it get smaller? because you're focused on the person instead of the grammar.
113
You see, it reaches the part of you that English has never touched.
114
Right now there's a version of you that exists only in your first language.
115
The one who's funny, who's tender, who knows exactly what to say.
116
Talking about the people you love is how you start bringing that person into English a translated version of you,
117
actually the real you.
118
So again, the three parts we have head or your interests,
119
hands or your daily life and your heart or the people you love.
120
This leads us now to level two, choose three inside of each of these,
121
your head, your hands and your heart.
122
We need to choose three inside each part.
123
So let's start with your head, the three interests.
124
Now again, you are going to do this.
125
This is how you're going to study to get fluent, but let's do some examples together.
126
Your head or your interests, right?
127
I mentioned earlier, I love cooking.
128
So cooking is one interest.
129
Think about it, what you make, how you learned how to cook, the food you grew up on.
130
Talk about these things.
131
A second interest, football.
132
I actually played flag football in college and I started playing again a few months ago.
133
I enjoy it.
134
My body, I'm not as young as I used to be, but I had a good time.
135
So let's say football is one of your interests.
136
Okay.
137
What team do you follow?
138
My dad loves the Philadelphia Eagles.
139
It's true.
140
The matches you watch.
141
When do you watch the football matches?
142
The arguments you have about it.
143
Oh, my team is better than your team.
144
Think about your interest.
145
And third, what about music?
146
What you listen to?
147
One of my favorite singers, his name is Smokey Norfolk.
148
I'll sing a little bit.
149
One of his songs is I know too much about him.
150
Real quick.
151
I know too much about him and there's nothing to make me doubt him.
152
That's all you get.
153
But again, I like music.
154
So maybe one of your interests is music.
155
So what do you listen to?
156
When do you listen to it?
157
What are the songs that are tied to your emotions or certain periods of your life?
158
Your head is the first part, three interests, cooking, football, music.
159
But what about part two, your hands, three daily activities now.
160
So one activity could be the drive to work.
161
What route do you follow?
162
What's the traffic like?
163
Is it really heavy or is it light and what's playing in the car as you're driving along the road?
164
What are you listening to?
165
Is it a podcast?
166
Is it teacher Tiffany's English lesson?
167
What are you listening to in your car?
168
One daily activity is the drive to work or what about making coffee in the morning?
169
I don't drink coffee, but I have a lot of friends who drink coffee.
170
So maybe you drink coffee.
171
Well, the first thing you did in the morning or the first thing you did to make the coffee, do you use the same cup?
172
What's the order that you follow to make the coffee?
173
Again, a daily activity you do every day so you can start describing it.
174
And again, another activity, picking up your daughter from school.
175
Think about the wait outside when you're sitting in your car, waiting for the teacher to bring your daughter and the other students out
176
or the walk to the car with your daughter or the same question you ask her every day.
177
Think about your daily activity.
178
Part two, your hands, your daily activities.
179
What about your heart now?
180
People you love.
181
Let's think about three people you love.
182
For example, your mother.
183
How did she raise you?
184
What did she say to you on the phone?
185
Maybe you talked to her yesterday and she said something to you on the phone.
186
Think about how your mother spoke to you yesterday on the phone or what you inherited from her.
187
My mom always smiles.
188
My mom literally looks very young.
189
She's 71, but she looks like she's in her early sixties.
190
She looks very young.
191
So the reason I look so young is because of my mother.
192
Think about the things you inherited from her.
193
Another person, maybe your younger brother, how you grew up together.
194
What was life like growing up?
195
What did you fight about?
196
What were your arguments about?
197
How has your younger brother changed over the years?
198
Do you see how your life can be the focus to help you getting fluent in English?
199
And what about your closest friend?
200
Think about your friends.
201
How did you meet that friend?
202
How long has it been?
203
Why have they stayed your friend again?
204
Three people you love.
205
Here's the choosing rule in practice.
206
Notice that none of these are impressive.
207
Nothing you have to search for online.
208
No, it's your actual life.
209
Nobody chose philosophy or classical literature or a mentor who changed my life.
210
They chose coffee, traffic, football, and a brother.
211
That's the point.
212
The material has to be true.
213
Now, if your interest is philosophy, choose philosophy.
214
That's good, but make sure it's your interests, not someone else's.
215
The material has to be true because you'll be living inside it for months.
216
Nine starting points now.
217
Nine starting points.
218
We have the three parts.
219
Head, hands, heart.
220
And for each part, we have three different examples.
221
So nine starting points.
222
Now each one goes through level three.
223
This is where it gets really good.
224
Level three, five sets of three for each of the nine, five sets of three for each of the nine.
225
I'll break it down.
226
So everything that we're about to say follows three examples.
227
We have the three examples for head.
228
We have cooking for hands.
229
We have the drive to work and for heart, we have your younger brother.
230
All right.
231
We're going to just use these one from each part to continue with level three.
232
Here we go.
233
Five sets of three.
234
So five examples for each.
235
So this is what you want to do.
236
You now need to find three vocabulary words for that part.
237
The words your topic is built from.
238
So for example, for our head, we have cooking.
239
That's the one we're going to continue working with cooking.
240
We need three vocabulary words connected to cooking.
241
Well, one word is simmer.
242
Sim, simmer.
243
Sorry.
244
That's a song.
245
Okay.
246
Simmer.
247
What does this word mean?
248
It means to cook something in liquid just below boiling with small, slow bubbles rather than violent ones.
249
Here's the sentence using the word.
250
I let the sauce simmer for about 20 minutes while I got everything else ready.
251
Makes sense, right?
252
Another term seasoning, the salt, pepper, herbs, and spices you add to give food flavor.
253
All right.
254
Here's a sentence.
255
It smells amazing, but honestly, the seasoning was a little heavy for me.
256
Still on the topic of cooking, remember, right?
257
Head.
258
Next, leftovers.
259
This is a new word, leftovers.
260
What does this term mean?
261
The food that remains after a meal saved to eat later.
262
I'll eat that a little bit later the leftovers.
263
Here's a sentence.
264
There were so many leftovers that I ate the same thing for three days straight.
265
You got it, right?
266
So again, starting with part one, the head, one of our interests, cooking three vocabulary words, simmer seasoning leftovers.
267
What about hands?
268
We chose the drive to work.
269
We need three vocabulary words.
270
First word, commute, commute.
271
Now the word commute means the regular trip you make between your home and your workplace.
272
It works as both a noun and a verb.
273
Here's a sentence.
274
My commute is about 40 minutes each way, which isn't bad for this city.
275
Here's a second vocabulary word for the drive to work.
276
Traffic.
277
This word means the vehicles on the road, especially when there are so many that everything slows down.
278
Here's the sentence.
279
The traffic was so bad this morning that I sat in the same spot for 10 minutes.
280
And our third vocabulary word connected again to our topic, the drive to work for hands is route.
281
This means the particular path you take to get somewhere, the specific streets and turns.
282
Here's the definition we have.
283
Now the sentence we have.
284
I've been taking the same route for six years and I could drive it with my eyes closed.
285
So for our topic, the drive to work, three vocabulary words, commute, traffic, route.
286
You see, again, we're building.
287
We have head, hands, heart.
288
Now we're finding three vocabulary words for the topic underneath each part.
289
What about heart?
290
We selected your younger brother.
291
Three vocabulary words.
292
Number one, stubborn, stubborn.
293
It means refusing to change your mind or your behavior, even when other people are pushing you to.
294
Here's the sentence.
295
He's the most stubborn person I know.
296
Once he decides something, that's it.
297
Second vocabulary word, protective.
298
It means wanting to keep someone safe and acting to defend them.
299
Here's the sentence.
300
He's very protective of our mother, especially since she got sick.
301
Notice I'm creating sentences using the vocabulary word, but connecting it to the topic.
302
And third, we have sibling.
303
Sibling is a brother or sister.
304
The neutral word people use when the gender doesn't matter or when talking about them as a group, my siblings.
305
Here's the sentence.
306
We're three siblings and I'm the oldest by five years.
307
You got it, right?
308
So again, we have for the heart, your younger brother, three vocabulary words, stubborn, protective, and sibling.
309
Now this leads us to the next section, three expressions.
310
Again, head, hands, heart.
311
We have our topic.
312
We already found three vocabulary words.
313
Now you need to find three expressions.
314
You're using your life to expand your English and speak fluently.
315
Now three expressions, how people actually say it, not how a book says it.
316
This is why finding expressions is so important.
317
So for the head, we're still staying with cooking.
318
Here's the first expression.
319
Let it sit for a minute.
320
This means leave the food alone for a short time before serving or cutting it.
321
So it finishes cooking or the flavors settle in.
322
Also used outside the kitchen to mean give it some time.
323
Here's the sentence, take it out of the oven and let it sit for a minute before you cut into it.
324
Topic of cooking connected to our head, our interests.
325
Second expression, a pinch of salt.
326
It means a very small amount of salt as much as you can hold between your thumb and finger, not a measured quantity.
327
Here's the sentence.
328
It tasted flat.
329
So I added a pinch of salt and it came right back.
330
And our third expression, I threw it together.
331
I threw it together.
332
It means I made it quickly and without a plan using whatever I had usually said modestly, even when the result was good.
333
Here's the sentence.
334
Don't be too impressed.
335
I just threw it together with what was in the fridge.
336
You see again, three expressions for our topic cooking, let it sit for a minute, a pinch of salt, And I threw it together.
337
What about three expressions now for hands or the drive to work?
338
What are we doing?
339
We're expanding.
340
We're building upon our own life and getting fluent hands, the drive to work.
341
First expression bumper to bumper.
342
This means traffic is so heavy that cars are almost touching, barely moving.
343
Describes the worst kind of slow traffic bumper to bumper.
344
I don't like bumper to bumper traffic.
345
Here's the sentence.
346
It was bumper to bumper from the bridge all the way downtown.
347
Expression number two, I take the back way.
348
This means I use smaller, less obvious streets instead of the main road, usually to avoid traffic.
349
Here's the sentence.
350
When the highway gets bad, I take the back way.
351
It's longer, but it keeps me moving.
352
And our third expression connected to our topic, the drive to work connected to the part of our body hands.
353
It's I left early to beat the traffic.
354
This means I departed before the busy period specifically to avoid it.
355
Beat here means get ahead of.
356
Here's the sentence.
357
I left early to beat the traffic and still got there with 10 minutes to spare.
358
I left early to beat the traffic.
359
So three expressions for the drive to work topic, which is connected to our daily activity or our hands.
360
Now we get our heart, our younger brother, people we love.
361
Here are the three expressions.
362
Number one, we're close.
363
It means we have a strong, warm relationship and we talk often used constantly about family and friends.
364
Here's the sentence.
365
We fought constantly as kids, but we're close now.
366
Second expression.
367
He takes after our mother, meaning he resembles her in personality, in habits, or in appearance.
368
Take after means to inherit from a family member.
369
Here's the sentence.
370
He takes after our mother, same laugh, same temper, same everything.
371
And our final expression for our younger brother, our heart, the person close to us.
372
He drives me crazy.
373
Now this is a funny expression, but we do use it for people we love sometimes.
374
What does he drives me crazy mean?
375
It means he annoys or frustrates me.
376
Usually said with affection about someone you love.
377
Here's the sentence.
378
He drives me crazy, but I do anything for him.
379
So now we have three expressions for our topic.
380
Your younger brother.
381
We have, we're close.
382
He takes after our mother and he drives me crazy.
383
Head, hands, and heart.
384
Three expressions we're building.
385
We're expanding our English fluency by looking at our lives.
386
This leads us now to the third part, three details.
387
Now the specifics that make it yours and not generic.
388
So we have head, we have hands, and we have heart.
389
We need three details about each topic we have underneath these three parts.
390
Remember for head, what did we choose?
391
Cooking.
392
So three details.
393
Ah, the pan you always reach for.
394
The next detail, the dish you make when you're tired.
395
The third detail, the one thing you never measure.
396
For example, I never measure salt.
397
I never measure garlic.
398
I never measure the seasonings I'm using using.
399
So three details about cooking my interest.
400
What about hands?
401
Remember we have the drive to work.
402
So three details about the drive to work.
403
We have what time did we leave?
404
What did we listen to in the car?
405
And the exact place where the traffic always stops.
406
For me in Maryland, it's around 15 a that's where the traffic always stops when I'm heading to church.
407
Going to work, same place.
408
So you see again, three details about the topic under hands.
409
Now we have our heart.
410
Remember our younger brother, three details, how he laughs, what he does for work.
411
And the thing you always argue about, we're building on your life to get fluent.
412
Why?
413
Because you know yourself.
414
This moves us now to the fourth part.
415
Again, using your life to expand, using your life to become more fluent.
416
These are the ways you do it.
417
Here we go.
418
Now, personal experience, but three personal experiences, the stories that only you can tell for our head.
419
We have cooking.
420
So what story could you tell the first meal you cooked alone?
421
What's another story?
422
The time you burn something badly or another story, the recipe you learned from someone else.
423
Think about it.
424
Personal experiences connected to the topic you chose.
425
What about your hands?
426
Remember the drive to work.
427
Three experiences.
428
Number one, the day you were late for something important.
429
Tell that story.
430
Number two, a conversation you had in the car.
431
Maybe you called a friend or called your family member.
432
Talk about that experience.
433
It's still on the drive to work.
434
Number three, the morning something unusual happened on the road.
435
You're speaking about your experiences connected to your life.
436
And what about your heart?
437
Again, your younger brother, for our example, speak about a time he helped you.
438
Second experience, a memory from your childhood.
439
Third experience, the last conversation you had.
440
You see what's happening.
441
We're using your life.
442
We started again, head, hands, heart.
443
You picked three interests connected to your head, hands, three things that happen in your daily life, heart, three people you love.
444
And now we're drilling down to show you how to expand even more about these individuals, these interests, these activities to speak English fluently.
445
Now we go into the fifth section, the fifth section, three discussion questions.
446
This is what turns a topic into a conversation.
447
You still have your head, your hands and your heart.
448
Let's look at the head.
449
What's the topic?
450
Cooking.
451
Three discussion questions connected to that topic.
452
You can find them online.
453
You can think of your own, but you need to answer them.
454
Here's one for cooking.
455
The first one, what's a dish that reminds you of home?
456
And you answer it.
457
Second discussion question for cooking.
458
Do you cook to relax or because you have to?
459
Third discussion question.
460
What's one thing you refuse to eat?
461
You see how it's expanding.
462
It's like mind mapping your English.
463
Second, your hands.
464
Again, the drive to work.
465
First discussion question.
466
How long is your commute?
467
Second discussion question.
468
Do you prefer driving or being driven?
469
Third discussion question.
470
What's the worst traffic you've ever sat in?
471
And finally your heart.
472
Remember your younger brother, three discussion questions.
473
First, are you close to your family?
474
Second, who understands you best?
475
And third, what's something you've never told him?
476
Here's the arithmetic, the math behind all of this.
477
I love teaching English.
478
I love technology and I also love math.
479
So here's the math behind it.
480
15 pieces of English per topic.
481
Remember, we have the topic.
482
We have three vocabulary words, three expressions, three details, three,
483
yes, personal experiences, and then three discussion questions, team pieces connected to each topic about you.
484
There are nine topics and all of them come from your life nine topics, 15 pieces of information for each topic.
485
I am telling you, as you study following this method, you will speak English fluently.
486
So why this works when nothing else you did before worked.
487
You see, my friend, you don't forget words attached to people you love.
488
You never run out of things to say about your own life.
489
Nobody can correct your material.
490
Why?
491
Because it's yours.
492
Those years you spent quitting.
493
You were not bad at English.
494
You were studying a stranger's life.
495
So where do you begin today?
496
I want you to pick one, one interest, just the head, one interest.
497
Find the three words, then the three expressions, then keep going the details,
498
the personal experiences, the discussion questions you've been living around this material your entire life.
499
So you are going to be able to speak about it.
500

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.
