Les maken...
1
Are there Australians in?
2
What am I talking about?
3
Saturday night, they're working behind a bar.
4
Have you all seen that incredibly powerful commercial on television where the child morphs back to life, having been run over?
5
Incidentally, that's why you're not allowed to leave the scene of an accident, you miss the best bit.
6
LAUGHTER That advert clearly states if you're doing 40 miles an hour and you hit a child,
7
there's an 80 % chance that child will die.
8
If you're doing 30 miles an hour, there's an 80 % chance that child will live.
9
Here's my question.
10
Where's the ad for swerving?
11
That advert's basically the government going, Hey, watch out, there's a kid in the road.
12
Slow down, take the edge off.
13
But it must learn its lesson!
14
How old did you say you were, sir?
15
14. You're 14 years old.
16
Right, and what's your name?
17
Sam.
18
Sam.
19
Right.
20
Let's say I'm driving to you, Sam.
21
At, I don't know, 40 miles an hour.
22
And you run away at 10 miles an hour.
23
It's an aggregate of 30, isn't it?
24
Not only have you given yourself a chance of survival, you've also learned a little something about maths.
25
Yes.
26
It's a win -win.
27
You all right?
28
Do you like girls yet?
29
You probably don't even know you're gay.
30
Do you know you're gay?
31
You're fully aware?
32
Yeah, yeah, no. Definitely not.
33
We haven't got a camera point to get you or anything.
34
Enjoy school.
35
Let's do some improv, ladies and gentlemen.
36
All I need is suggestions from you.

45
Oliver Cromwell, Noddy.
46
Mother Teresa.
47
God bless her, Mother Teresa.
48
Amazing woman, wasn't she?
49
Very generous with her time and all the ho...
50
You do look at her and think, yeah, a little bit of moisturiser wouldn't have fucking killed you.
51
So, I'm all for helping the poor, but just oil of you, Lea, take the edge off that.
52
Fuck me, it's like a saddlebag.
53
She looks like my balls.
54
I'm joking, my balls are in significantly better kit than Mother Teresa's face.
55
Henry VIII!
56
All right, let's go Henry VIII.
57
He's a classic.
58
Let's go Henry VIII, OK?
59
All we know about him was he was a bit...
60
Shall we say he was aggressive towards women?
61
He did what, sorry?
62
Shag loads of women.
63
He shag loads of women?
64
Yes.
65
He was the king.
66
It's not going to be tricky to get a date, is it?
67
Hey, how you doing?
68
I'm the king.
69
Do you want to see me cock? And the crown jewels.

Over deze les

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
