74
It's the holidays and he is in the holiday.
75
And usually when you don't work,
76
do you plan to do what you're going to do or do things a little spontaneity?
77
It depends on whether I'm going to see people or not.
78
If I'm not alone, I'm not going to plan to.
79
And if I'm going to see friends or family,
80
I'm going to plan to.
81
Otherwise, I'm not going to have a time that concord.
82
And do you plan to do what you're going to do every day,
83
rigorously, or rather to go?
84
It depends on the moments.
85
Sometimes I need to plan to plan ahead and other times I'm in vacation and I can't see anything special.
86
So I leave it on the day.
87
And this day with your friend,
88
it was planned for a long time?
89
It was planned for a long time, but it was planned.
90
And after your work, what are you going to do?
91
Me rest, to eat, I didn't expect,
92
I don't know, I don't know, I'm feeling.
93
You usually don't do what you're doing when you don't work?
94
The evening, no, it's reading in general,
95
I work on my computer,
96
on my personal projects, it depends,
97
it depends on the feeling, the mood.
98
In this moment, when it's time,
99
I have less time to focus on things that require a lot of energy.
100
So I like to read,
101
to book a lot, to rest,
102
to watch TV a little bit, sometimes.
103
And are you going to do it every day or do things rather spontaneously?
104
It depends, it depends, like in the movies,
105
you know, the Père Noël is a thing that's hard.
106
It depends if I have a job,
107
there are certain hours that I need to accomplish.
108
But otherwise I'm rather spontaneous.
109
I also work because I'm a comedian.
110
I'm supposed to play in a film,
111
so I'm learning my text.
112
And it's a way to learn,
113
to learn, to learn, to learn.
114
You listen, maybe?
115
No, I just say it in my head.
116
I have the text here,
117
so if I forget a part of the text,
118
I go and watch it.
119
I reply.
120
So you are planning on what you're doing,
121
always doing the same thing?
122
Yeah, at least I have two things I'm sure to do.
123
So the job, then then training and then to see if I'm working with friends,
124
like that, or if I'm going to watch films.
125
What do you do generally in the days where you don't work?
126
Wow, it's very varied!
127
It's hard to answer that question.
128
Good question.
129
Do you have any tâches ménagères or rather?
130
I think a lot of tâches ménagères.
131
I think it's a lot.
132
I like to go and go and go and go and go.
133
I'm not from Paris, I'm usually from there.
134
I'm going to go and see what I'm going to do. So, it's spontaneous.
135
What is your personal projects?
136
You are not obligated to answer.
137
My personal projects is a professional conversion.
138
So I try to look at my strong points, my weak points.
139
I try to see what I like,
140
what is my ikigai, what is my passion.
141
That's why I would like to wake up the morning without effort.
142
so I studied a little all that in view of a professional conversion.

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.
