Yes, of course.

Can I take your name?
9
It's Peter Chin.
10
OK, Peter.
11
Well, if you want to ask about the job, and then if we're both still interested, we could arrange for you to come for an interview.
12
Great, thanks.
13
I'm afraid I missed the advert for the job, but heard about it from a friend.

That's no problem at all.
15
What would you like to know?

Well, um, what sort of work is it?

Washing up?

That'd be good.
22
And how many nights a week would it be?
23
Well, we're really only busy at the weekend.
24
So two nights?
25
Three actually, so it would work out at twelve hours a week.
26
That'd be fine.
27
It wouldn't interfere with my studies.
28
Are you at the university?
29
Yes, first year physics student.
30
Oh right.
31
Um, and because I'm not an EU national, would I need a work permit?

We're offering £4.45 an hour.

45
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 5 to 10.
46
Now listen and answer questions 5 to 10.
47
We feel it's pretty good, and we also offer some good fringe benefits.
48
Really?
49
Well, we give you a free dinner, so you eat well.
50
Right.
51
Better than hostile food.
52
We certainly hope so.
53
And we also offer extra pay for working on national holidays.
54
Oh, that's a really good perk, isn't it?
55
Yes, we think so.
56
And then, because of the difficulties of getting public transport, if you're working after 11 o'clock, we drive you home.
57
Oh, that's good to know.
58
Well, we'd certainly be interested in inviting you for an interview, if you're still interested.
59
Oh, yes, certainly.
60
Could I just also ask what qualities you're looking for?
61
Well, for this particular job we want a clear voice, which you obviously do have.

And you must be able to think quickly, you know?

Well, I hope I...

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.
