Hi, I'm Miguel, a TFK Kid Reporter.
2
And my question for you, Anne, is I'm really interested in astronauts and space.
3
So what advice would you have for kids like me?
4
And what role do you think young people should play for the future of space exploration?
5
Well, that's a great question, Miguel, because when I was your age, and actually even earlier, I was about three years old
6
when I looked up to the stars and I decided that I wanted to be an astronaut.
7
And that's when I first told my parents.
8
So just the fact that you're enthusiastic about it, that is actually the first start because all of the future astronauts are doing exactly what you're doing every day.
9
They're getting up, they're going to school, they're learning what they can, they're taking lots of different subjects, and so what you're doing right now is actually exactly what you should be doing to come
10
and be part of space flight.
11
Now for anybody that wants to come and be an astronaut
12
or to do any of the many many many different jobs that we have at NASA, the biggest thing is to figure out what you're passionate about and what you love doing
13
and do that because if you're passionate about something you're going to be better at it
14
because all of what we do it takes
15
so much more work than i ever anticipated when i looked up
16
and thought i want to be an astronaut i didn't even see half of the work
17
that it was going to take to get here evenings
18
and weekends and not going out with my friends
19
when i wanted to and canceling trips
20
and just focusing on my work that's what it takes
21
but that's worth it if what you're doing is is something
22
that you love and that you're passionate about and that brings you joy.
23
Because the other part is that, you know, there's so many different jobs at NASA, like I said, not just within the astronaut corps, you know, within the astronaut office, we have, we have doctors,
24
we have scientists, we have geologists, we have pilots, we have people that are not pilots, we have scuba divers, we have submariners,
25
we have all sorts of different ways that you can become an astronaut.
26
However, we also have a ton of people that work at NASA, and they get to work with space exploration every single day, and they're not engineers and scientists.
27
We have educators that go out and they tell the story.
28
We have media and public relations people that tell the story and do the interviews and make the videos.
29
And these guys are the same people that they also get on helicopters
30
and they fly over to Kazakhstan and down to Florida and they see launches and landings, but they tell the story.
31
And so whatever your passion is, you can be part of this if you'd like to.
32
So, but my biggest thing is to not give up.
33
Do not give up.
34
I run into a lot adults
35
that say you know I wanted to be an astronaut but
36
but they say but but I stopped but I decided not to
37
but I decided not to major in engineering
38
but I decided it was going to be too hard
39
but I decided to go do something else
40
and what I realized was most adults stopped pursuing it themselves nobody came
41
and said hey you're not good enough most people gave up themselves
42
and so what I want you to think about is keep making the decisions that move you onto that path
43
because somebody sitting in your classroom today is going to be an astronaut
44
or a classroom just like yours is going to be an astronaut there's the same with the president
45
and the doctors and the lawyers
46
and the professional sports players they're all sitting in school right now
47
so it's those people that stay focused on their mission
48
and keep making those decisions about doing things that they're passionate about
49
that are the ones that end up uh where i am
50
and where other successful people are so good luck and don't give up

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
