1
So, how long have you worked from home?
2
About eight years now.
3
What about you?
4
Only for a couple of months.
5
Why did you decide to work from home?
6
Was it when you had your son?
7
No, I was already working from home when my son was born.
8
Actually, I started working from home as a freelance writer because I got an offer to write a geography book.
9
Before that, I was working as a teacher, but it was really tiring.
10
The writing job wasn't well paid, but it seemed interesting, so I decided to quit teaching and do it.
11
After that project, I applied for other jobs, and luckily the work kept coming.
12
What about you?
13
Oh, I started working from home because the company I worked for was losing money.
14
They had to downsize.
15
A few of my colleagues lost their jobs.
16
The company moved to a smaller building.
17
I could only keep my job if I agreed to work from home, so I did.
18
Do you enjoy it?
19
Not really.
20
I miss chatting to people, joking around, or deciding at the last minute to go for a drink or dinner after work.
21
Just chatting to colleagues, we found things we had in common.
22
I started playing badminton with one girl, and played cards in the evenings with some others,
23
but they've all lost their jobs and moved away now.
24
New people have started work at the company, but I don't get to know them like I did in the past.
25
Yes, I can see that's a problem.
26
Is it the same for you?
27
Not really.
28
As a teacher, I was always too tired or too busy to socialise much with colleagues.
29
Now I'm busy, but not as tired.
30
That means I have enough energy to spend time with people.
31
Of course, I spend time with my family, but I'm also going to an art class at the moment, and I've met a couple of great ladies there,
32
and we often meet up for drinks and chat.
33
Maybe you should do something like that too.
34
Maybe I should.

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.
