Next up is a product that began as an elementary school project.
2
Hello, Sharks.
3
I'm Cassidy Crowley.
4
And I'm Laurie Crowley, Cassidy's mom.
5
And we're from Honolulu, Hawaii.
6
I'm seeking $50,000 in exchange for 50% of my company.
7
Wow.
8
Sharks, I love to create and invent.
9
When I was seven years old,
10
my baby sister, Emily, would always plant her spoon.
11
And my mom would always get worried that she might accidentally poke or stab her throat.
12
So I wanted to create a product that eliminated that long and sharp design of a traditional spoon.
13
So I invented the Baby Toon.
14
The Baby Toon is a combination of a baby spoon,
15
and it's either all in one.
16
The rectangular body makes it easy for babies to grasp and self-feed.
17
The Babytoon is made of 100% soft silicone,
18
there are no sharp edges,
19
so it's gentle on baby's gums,
20
and it works great for TV.
21
Sharks, all parents know that babies love throwing their spoons on the floor.
22
Well, we have a solution for this.
23
Just put a pacifier clip around the Babytoon Oh.
24
And attach it to the baby's shirt.
25
No more baby spoons getting thrown on the floor.
26
But wait, there's more.
27
What?
28
Baby Toon is made right here in the USA,
29
and it was designed and created by me.
30
So, Sharks, who's ready to take a bite out of the Baby Toon?
31
Together, we can bring Baby Toons to every baby in the world.
32
Wow.
33
Nice.
34
Good job, Cassidy.
35
That was great.
36
Oh, my gosh.
37
So we have some samples we'd like to pass out to you, sharks.
38
How old was Cassidy?
39
I'm 10.
40
She's 10.
41
10 going on 34.
42
Oh, are we going to eat?
43
This one's for Lori.
44
That's for me?
45
For Lori?
46
Yep.
47
Should I feed Lori?
48
We brought from Hawaii, we have poi,
49
which is a Hawaiian baby food.
50
Oh.
51
How did you come up with the design and what did you do to figure that out?
52
So in first grade, I entered a local science fair when I was seven years old.
53
And we have actually my sample,
54
if you guys want to see it, too, right here.
55
Me too.
56
Oh, wow.
57
So that's your prototype?
58
Yeah, this is the one that I made in first grade.
59
Look at this.
60
I mean, partially why I'm just very thankful I'm here is I want to show other kids
61
that they can be open to opportunities they have at school or even at home to create an event.
62
I just really hope I inspire them.
63
It's a dream come true.
64
So are you selling it already, or is it?
65
Yeah, we sell our products.
66
So since September of 2018, we had $5,000 in sales.
67
Wow.
68
Thank you.
69
What does it cost?
70
Our total cost is $6.60.
71
And you sell it for how much?
72
We sell it for $15.
73
$15?
74
For you.
75
Cassie, are you going to be a superstar at your school because you were on Shark Tank?
76
Well, that's obviously not why I'm here.
77
Oh, even better answer.
78
Oh my god, I love you.
79
Cassidy, it's pretty rare that somebody comes in here and offers us 50%.
80
Why did you do that?
81
I mean, let's face it,
82
I'm only 10 years old.
83
I need a partner.
84
I mean, I still have to go to high school.
85
I think you're more of a shark than we are.
86
Cassidy, you've done an amazing, amazing job.
87
I mean, it's incredible.
88
Thank you.
89
To have started a business,
90
to develop a product, to see it through,
91
to make your way here.
92
I mean, just I can't even imagine what's next for you.
93
The challenge I have is just it's really not a fit for me.
94
So I'm out, but great, great job, Cassidy.
95
Cassidy, I've been doing little businesses since I was a kid.
96
I can already tell from your presence,
97
from your poise, from your grit that you're gonna go very, very far.
98
This was three years ago and you didn't give up.
99
You know, manufacturing can be very tricky.
100
I find it fascinating that you pulled this up.
101
Well, actually, just recently, we had to change the durometer of silicone we're using,
102
so we had to lower it.
103
You had to change what?
104
Change the durometer of silicone.
105
What's a durometer?
106
Durometer is how you measure the firmness of silicone.
107
For example, if you have something that's a higher durometer,
108
Who are you, lady?
109
Yeah, exactly.
110
If you have something that's a higher deromative silicone,
111
it's gonna be more stiff and hard.
112
And if you have something that's a lower deromative silicone,
113
it's gonna be more flexible.
114
Cassidy, do you have a patent on it?
115
Yeah, we have our patents right here, actually.
116
Wow.
117
Cassidy, I am beyond impressed.
118
I know you're not allowed to do this in the United States of America,
119
but if in 20 years you wanna marry one of my kids,
120
I'd be very delighted.
121
But in all seriousness, you're so impressive.
122
But don't understand the baby space,
123
And for those reasons, I'm out.
124
Thank you so much.
125
Cassidy, I'm torn because I don't feel that you're willing to quit elementary school.
126
I can go straight to college.
127
Honestly, I don't want you to quit school.
128
It's a little early.
129
I'm out.
130
Cassidy, this is a great product.
131
You just absolutely blow me away.
132
You said you always wanted to go on Shark Tank,
133
and I'm so proud if we had any part in your wanting to become an entrepreneur.
134
So guess what, young lady?
135
I'm gonna make you an offer.
136
Yes.
137
Because I have to be along with this journey.
138
I'm giving you $50,000 for 50%.
139
Wow.
140
Laurie, you have a deal.
141
Congratulations, guys.
142
Yay!
143
Oh, my gosh.
144
Thank you.
145
You are just amazing.
146
Amazing.
147
So exciting.
148
Thank you.
149
Thank you.
150
High five.
151
I'll see you soon.
152
Thank you.
153
Cassidy, guys, before you leave,
154
come up here, sit in the shark chair.
155
Oh, yes.
156
That's where you're going.
157
Let's see you.
158
How does it feel?
159
Yay, Cassidy!
160
Cassidy, look at Kevin and say, you're dead to me.
161
Congrats, Cassidy.
162
Thank you.
163
Congrats, Cassidy.
164
Thank you.
165
Oh my gosh.
166
Can't believe we got a deal.
167
What's fascinating about Shark Tank is I have four kids.
168
My youngest is six years old and she gets glued to the TV.
169
It's a very engaging part.
170
Isn't that amazing?
171
It's amazing.

Consigli per la pratica

Quando utilizzi le tecniche di shadowing, cerca di ascoltare attentamente il ritmo e il tono di Cassidy mentre parla. La sua velocità è moderata, il che rende questa lezione ideale per gli studenti che sono alle prime armi con il shadowspeak e il shadow speech. Ecco alcuni consigli utili:

  • Fai una pausa ogni volta che Cassidy pronuncia una frase chiave, tentando di ripeterla esattamente come lei, mantenendo la stessa intonazione e ritmo.
  • Registra la tua voce mentre pratichi. Questo ti permetterà di confrontare la tua pronuncia con quella originale e di identificare aree di miglioramento.
  • Concentrati sulle espressioni facciali e sui movimenti della bocca di Cassidy per migliorare la tua espressione verbale.
  • Esercitati a ripetere non solo le parole, ma anche le piccole pause e le esitazioni, per rendere il tuo parlato più naturale.
  • Utilizza il vocabolario chiave elencato sopra per creare frasi personali durante la tua pratica quotidiana.

Ricorda, l'obiettivo è migliorare la pronuncia inglese e acquisire sicurezza nel parlare. Più pratichi, più diventerai fluente e sicuro di te stesso!

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.
