Ms. Weaver?

Hi.

Why not?
11
What is wrong?

Well, Well, yesterday I felt fine.
13
In the morning, I painted for hours.
14
In the afternoon, I cut wood.
15
Then I built a fire.

Ana, what do you mean?
17
Why can't you come to work today?

I do not feel well.

I think I'm sick.

I had the flu.

What did you do?

I slept a lot and I drank a lot of water.
25
Do you have a doctor?

You should call your doctor and get lots of rest.

Thanks, Ms. Weaver.

Calling my doctor.

I do not feel well.
32
I think I'm sick.

I was sick last week, too.

I had the flu.
35
Now, where does this thing go?
36
Hello, this is Dr. Bennett.
37
How can I help you?
38
Hello, Dr. Bennett.
39
This is Anna.
40
Oh, hi, Anna.
41
How can I help you?
42
I think I'm sick.
43
Let me ask you a couple of questions.
44
Do you have a sore throat?
45
Yes, I have a sore throat.
46
Do you have a cough?
47
Yes, I have a cough.
48
When did you start feeling sick?
49
This morning.
50
Yesterday, I felt great.
51
In the morning, I painted for hours.
52
In the afternoon, I cut wood.
53
Excuse me, Anna.
54
But I don't need to know all that.
55
Do you have a fever?
56
My thermometer says 125 degrees.
57
What?
58
Yeah, that's not right.
59
Oh, wait.
60
The thermometer was in my hot cup of coffee.
61
Please take it again, Anna.
62
Okay, the thermometer says 100.5 degrees.
63
100.5 degrees is not too high.
64
I want you to drink lots of water.
65
Rest in bed and get lots of sleep.
66
That is what my boss said to do.
67
Dr. Bennett, when can I go to work?
68
Don't go to work for a couple of days.
69
Yes!
70
I mean, I don't want to make my co-workers sick.
71
That's right.
72
Call me back in a couple of days.
73
I will, Dr. Bennett, and thanks.
74
When did you start feeling sick?
75
Well, you heard the doctor.
76
No work for a couple of days.
77
I need water, sleep, and, um, lots of movies.
78
Well, the doctor didn't say anything about movies. But it can't hurt.
79
Until next time!

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.
