My name is Maria, and today we're going to talk about why I love winter.
5
I love winter for many reasons.
6
Winter, where I live, is the coldest season of the year.
7
In winter, I like to wear warm clothes.
8
When it's cold, I wear jeans,
9
a sweater, a hat, gloves, and a coat.
10
Wearing my winter clothes makes me feel warm and cozy.
11
At night, it also gets very cold during the winter.
12
I sleep with a big blanket.
13
In the morning, sometimes I don't want to get out of bed
14
because I feel so warm and cozy and the air is cold.
15
Many places are very snowy and icy during the winter.
16
Where I live, it's cold, but there is no snow.
17
Many days, it is cold, but it is still sunny
18
and nice outside i wish it would snow though
19
because i love the snow does it snow where you live Do you like the snow?
20
Sometimes in winter, we drive to the mountains in Spain.
21
These mountains are called the Pyrenees.
22
It snows there every winter her.
23
When we go to the mountains, I like to ski.
24
I think skiing is fun.
25
I used to snowboard snowboarding is also fun skiing
26
and snowboarding are hard to learn you must practice a lot
27
but when you learn skiing and snowboarding is very fun I like skiing with friends
28
My favorite part of skiing with friends is drinking hot chocolate afterwards.
29
I also like sledding.
30
Sledding is when you sit on a sled and go down a hill.
31
A sled is like a small seat that you sit on and use to go down the mountains.
32
Sometimes you go very fast.
33
You go fast when the hill is steep.
34
And after you go down,
35
you have to walk back up the mountain with your sled.
36
Sometimes this can be very tiring sharing.
37
When you reach the top of the mountain, You sled back down again.
38
When I was a little girl,
39
I lived in a place where it snowed in the winter. When it snowed,
40
they canceled school so we did not have school
41
when it snowed when it snowed we would stay home at our house
42
and go sledding it was always very fun do you like to sled
43
or do you like to ski or snowboard?
44
When it's cold, I like to stay inside where it's nice and warm.
45
Sometimes we build a fire in my fireplace.
46
I love the smell of the wood burning in the fireplace.
47
The smell and the heat makes me feel warm and cozy.
48
My favorite time of year to cook is winter.
49
I like making soups and stews.
50
Stews are like a thick soup that has meat and vegetables and potatoes.
51
I also love to bake things in the oven during the winter.
52
I love how it fills my kitchen with warm heat and the smell of good food.
53
I love to bake chicken,
54
fish, pasta dishes, and also pastries.
55

Do you like to cook?
58
What kind of dishes do you like to make in the winter?
59
The days are also shorter in winter.

It gets dark very early.
61

63
or just spend time with my family.

In the summer, I like spending lots of time outside when it's warm and sunny and the days are long.

Over deze les

In deze les ga je Engels leren met video's die speciaal zijn gemaakt voor beginners. Je practicaert met een conversatie over winter, waarin je leert hoe je eenvoudige zinnen structuurt en natuurlijke taalgebruik opneemt. Het focus ligt op het begrijpen van langzame, heldere spraak en het verbeteren van je engelse uitspraak. Ook is het een goede oefening voor IELTS spreekvaardigheid, omdat je leert om over dagelijkse onderwerpen te praten met overtuiging.

Belangrijke woorden en zinnen

  • Cozy: Knus. Bijvoorbeeld: "Wearing winter clothes makes me feel cozy."
  • Sledding: Sleeën. Dit is een activiteit waarbij je op een slee naar beneden glijdt.
  • Stew: Stoofpot. Een dikke soep met vlees, groenten en aardappelen.
  • Fireplace: Kachel. "I love the smell of wood burning in the fireplace."
  • Pyrenees: De Pyreneeën. Een bergketen waar het in de winter vaak sneeuwt.

Praktische tips

Om je spraakvaardigheid te verbeteren, gebruik de techniek van schaduwspreekt. Dit betekent dat je direct na de spreker praat, zo snel mogelijk na haar. Omdat de video langzaam is, is het perfect om te oefenen. Let op de intonatie en de pauzes: wanneer haalt Maria adem? Hoe verandert haar stemtoon bij vragen? Herhaal de zinnen meerdere keren tot ze vloeiend uit je mond gaan. Dit helpt niet alleen met je uitspraak, maar ook met je fluïditeit. Voor extra oefening kun je de dialoog opschrijven en daarna voorlezen, terwijl je jezelf opneemt. Vergelijk je opname met de video en let op de verschillen. Zo leer je stap voor stap je engelse spreekvaardigheid te verbeteren, ook voor toetsen als het IELTS.

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.
