Hello you beautiful people!
2
Today I woke up and I decided that I want to do something brand new.
3
I want to have a new experience.
4
So today you, me and Chang are gonna learn lots of English using the world around us and exploring a garden.
5
So we are on an organic farm being shown around by the lovely
6
Chang teaching us all about the fresh produce, the fresh herbs and plants that are growing here on the farm.
7
so these are the butterfly pea flowers a beautiful blue flower
8
that is used to color dishes it can make dishes blue if you want a blue pancake or some blue oats
9
maybe a blue face mask it can look like a smurfs
10
this is a black turmeric never had black turmeric before apparently it's very bitter
11
nice in the basket so this is stevia
12
which is like a natural low calorie sweetener they're using lots of products
13
but this is the fresh version this is cheng trying the stevia and it is so sweet. So sweet, right?
14
This is the Thai basil, different to the basil you find in Italy.
15
And it's really fragrant, I would use the smell.
16
Very bright.
17
If you're someone who struggles to speak English, you can understand a lot, but speaking feels hard.
18
I've created an English app that's going to help you prepare for real life conversations,
19
speak daily whenever you want and learn from AI feedback so that you can actively improve your English day by day.
20
The app is called Sprout and
21
if you join Sprout Infinity we have a weekly group class where you can talk with me
22
and other learners from around the world.
23
If you miss the group class you get private access afterwards and you can turn that into an English lesson.
24
You can also turn any YouTube video on any of your
25
favorite topics into your own complete English lesson with flashcards and AI conversation with an AI version of me.
26
He's called J .I and he's going to listen to you,
27
ask you questions and give you feedback on your English speaking so that you can become a more confident English speaker.
28
I am biased but Sprout really works.
29
If you want to find out more you can go to sproutlanguage .com or click the first link in the description box.
30
See you there.
31
We've never done anything like this before.
32
This is a new experience and it's lighting my brain up.
33
I'm learning loads about different herbs, different plants, the effect they have on our body,
34
what happens when we eat the food that is grown in the earth around us.
35
And it's a new experience and it's making me feel happy.
36
I'm spending time outside in the sun.
37
The idea of today is to learn lots of new English
38
and also to hopefully inspire you guys to try some new things wherever it is you live.
39
It's easy to take where we live for granted
40
which means to not appreciate the place that we live in
41
but there's always something new that we can do if we just look a little more deeply.
42
Wow, it's so delicate.
43
It's called a cat whisker because a cat has whiskers.
44
Whiskers are the little hairs on the side of the cat's mouth which help it sense the world around it.
45
And apparently this is good for kidney stones.
46
So I don't have those yet but maybe this will be good in the future. In the basket.
47
This is a kumquat which is part of the citrus family like oranges, limes, lemons and...
48
These kumquats are organic, so that means that they're grown fresh here on the farm.
49
They don't add anything extra to them.
50
In New Year, she just told me that it's very popular for people to have kumquat trees to
51
decorate their homes and have them look beautiful, but they add extra things in which are not good to eat the kumquats,
52
to make the kumquats more beautiful, but not for eating.
53
These are organic.
54
They are very good for your health.
55
So pretty, look at this rose.
56
Wow.
57
So this is a rose and the pink parts are called petals,
58
great word, and this green part here could be called the stem or the stalk.
59
The stem or the stalk.
60
And they dry this out to mix with maybe peppermint to put in a tea
61
or you can use it just to look at and calm you down because it's very pretty.
62
I know that one.
63
Yeah this is rosemary.
64
Do we use it at home?
65
Yes we use dried rosemary in cooking mainly. So apparently
66
if you put rosemary on your skin it's good to reflect the UV rays of the Sun to protect your skin.
67
And apparently it's for your memory
68
so for those of you wanting to learn more english words
69

Banh sèo is a Vietnamese pancake.
133

And you dip it in the water to moisten it,
136
to make it pliable, malleable.

you take the pancake, the bento, put it inside, open it up.
138
Inside we have shrimp, bean sprouts, chives, mushrooms.

140
some grated cucumber, some purple leaves.
141
I don't know what these are.
142
It's hard to do with one hand, some lettuce.
143
Then you're supposed to roll it up like a big cigar.
144
And then you dip it in a sweet and sour sauce with chilli, garlic, vinegar, sugar.
145
Tastes amazing.
146
The rice paper is chewy, the pancake is crispy, you have the freshness from all the herbs,
147
the garlic and chili to give a bit of a kick, the acidity and the sweetness of the sauce.
148
So many flavors, so many textures, that's what makes food amazing and I'm very happy.
149

Novelty is something new or different that feels interesting because you've never done it before.
153
So how can you make your English learning more novel?
154
How can you make it new
155

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.
