1
(upbeat music) - I am Johnathan Grahm and I am the chocolatier and owner of Compartes Chocolate and I'm gonna be your expert for valentines chocolate.
2
I've probably never eaten chocolate like this before so you're gonna be on an adventure with me.
3
It certainly didn't smell chocolaty.
4
It smelled sugary.
5
You know what else, I hate not knowing.
6
This tastes like the candy that you would get when you were a little kid.
7
It's fun, it's candy.
8
It's in a heart shaped box.
9
We've gone a lot bigger as you can see just from the plate.
10
No guide. I'll say it does look nice that there's white chocolate, milk chocolate, dark chocolate.
11
If you don't know what the person likes you've got a good variety box in here.
12
This is better than the previous ones.
13
I might even actually just taste another.
14
I don't know what that one is but it's got some crunch to it.
15
There was a snap on the chocolate.
16
If you want chocolate you should actually go for chocolate.
17
Again, dark chocolate, high cocoa content.
18
I think this would be a good gift to give if you were 21, but if you're 30 you need to step up your game.
19
The most happy this makes me is that there is a guide because that means at least I can kind of see what I want to go with instead of mystery chocolate.
20
One that says Honey Buttery Caramel.
21
No snap on this chocolate.
22
It's not honey, it's not buttery.
23
This type of caramel and this type of consistency means preservatives.
24
That really makes me depressed because all the other boxes, I didn't know what I was getting and now the one that I really wanted is such a letdown.
25
The caramel consistency is really nice.
26
It's a nice deep caramel color.
27
The milk chocolate shell is so thick.
28
They've lathered on so much milk chocolate that it overpowers the caramel.
29
If you're just gonna give your valentine milk chocolate, go buy a milk chocolate bar.
30
The milk chocolate quality of this product is the best of the quality that we've tried.
31
I like the butteriness and consistency on the inside of this.
32
This is more of a true truffle cause it has a creamy chocolate center.
33
This one's okay, it's not great.
34
But it's much more inline with my taste and higher end chocolate than what we've been tasting previously.
35
Again, a lot of the pieces we saw before are very generic looking.
36
This is prettier.
37
Not bad. It had the snap.
38
I don't know if you heard it.
39
It's really plain and milk chocolate and simple but it's okay.
40
I'm not mad at it.
41
If you can't afford a really big box of chocolate, get a smaller box that's good.
42
I think that when you're giving a valentines gift, it needs to be unique.
43
You have one day a year to show yourself.
44
You could screw up the chocolate and be sent home.
45
What about making something at home.
46
You could just buy chocolate and melt it down and get some strawberries and dip them and that's so much more unique and special.
47
I just love the candle and champagne set up. (laughs) You're gonna get chocolate, candles, champagne.
48
We're just missing the flowers.
49
But you know flowers die and chocolate lives forever or until you eat it.

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.
