You know, that's unconventional.
25
Are you ready?
26
Yes.
27
Alright, can we get two minutes on the clock?

Okay.
29
When something is physically difficult or physically hard, it takes a lot of
30
energy uh sort of like energy but um it's another another word for energy oh

If I had a pie and before it had a slice cut out of the pie.
39
Hole.
40
Hole, yes.
41
I can smell and I can taste.

This is a sense.
44
Yes.
45
Australia is a country, but it's also a continent.
46
Oh, that's true.
47
But that's not the word.
48
When we talk about politics, we refer to it as a Australia is a number of states.
49
and they are linked together.
50
It's like a country.
51
It's another word for country.
52
Let's pass this one.
53
Okay.
54
So this one's difficult.
55
If you have a lot of things and then you take the things away, what are the things that are still there?
56
That was a very hard description.
57
I'm going to pass that one.
58
That's quite hard.
59
Oh, if you have flour, sometimes you have flour that makes the cake go from small large.
60
Sometimes when you have children, you help them grow into an adult.
61
That is also called parents something their children good parents something with their children.
62
It's like educate, but it's a more holistic approach where you are helping them become good people.
63
So parents, And it's also in cakes.
64
There's a type of flour that helps a flour go from small to large.
65
Oh, that's time.
66
That's time.
67
We can relax.
68
We can relax.
69
Well, I'm so sorry, Renata.
70
We only got four out of ten.
71
Yeah, it was pretty difficult.
72
It was difficult.
73
I was struggling.
74
So I can't imagine how you must have felt.
75
I think that's on me.
76
I think this one, it's my fault.
77
So until next time, $20.
78
Until next time.
79
So we're going to go through the words that we got.
80
You did such a fantastic job with effort.
81
So that was something that was physically hard or draining.
82
Well done.
83
Decide was number two.
84
which is to choose something to make a decision.
85
Excellent work.
86
I use the example of a pie with whole, which means something is full, like you said, or whole.
87
sense was number four, so that was the taste and the smell.
88
But it could also mean like a sixth sense, there's something unknowingness, but that's a bit more difficult.
89
Fifth, I should have said, It's at the beginning of a country's anthem.
90
It's called a So the fifth one was nation.
91
Yeah, it was hard.
92
That one was tricky.
93
This was also tricky.
94
Number six was remain.
95
So I used an arbitrary example,
96
which means a random example of having things and taking them away and the things that stayed, they remain.
97
But I'm sure there's a much better description to that.
98
There was also number seven was raise.
99
So you can raise your children.
100
There's also flour that help raise cakes.
101
Yes, that was tricky.
102
you?
103
So the price of something, the amount something costs, So number nine was season.
104
So what might you have said for season?
105
What would have been a good clue to help you get this word?
106
So maybe describe how there's like four different types of season.
107
So maybe you can say, There's like four different types and people have their own favorite ones.
108
And there's like different climates for each one.
109
Maybe that's going to be a good one.
110
So I could have said what summer, winter, autumn, spring season.
111
Excellent.
112
Number 10 is tax.
113
So what do you think you would have said for tax?
114
Maybe you can say it's something that people should pay.
115
as a part of the law, maybe that would be a good hint.
116
Yeah, and if they weren't getting it, you could say at the end of financial year, you have to pay something to the government.
117
Well, well done anyway.
118

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.
