Đang tạo bài học...
1
Right, let's get started. Thanks for joining, everyone.
2
I'd like a quick update on the app launch.
3
Tom, where do things stand on your side?
4
We're slightly behind schedule, to be honest.
5
The search feature turned out more complicated than expected.
6
It's been tested, but a few issues still need fixing.
7
How long do you think that will take?
8
Realistically, we're looking at another week.
9
Okay. Nina, how does that affect marketing?
10
It puts us in a tight spot, I'm afraid.
11
The launch campaign has already been scheduled for the twentieth.
12
If we push it back, we'll lose our advertising slot.
13
I see. Is there any room for compromise?
14
We could launch without the search feature and add it later.
15
That might work, as long as the app doesn't feel unfinished.
16
It won't. Everything else is running smoothly.
17
What would you need to hit the twentieth, Tom?
18
An extra tester would make a huge difference.
19
I'll see if I can borrow someone from the other team.
20
In the meantime, I'll hold off on the press release.
21
Good thinking. Let's not announce anything until we're certain.
22
Should I let the client know about the delay?
23
Not yet. I'd rather wait until we have a clear picture.
24
I'll have a better idea by Thursday.
25
Then let's touch base again on Thursday afternoon.
26
Tom, please keep me in the loop if anything changes.
27
Will do. I'll flag any problems straight away.
28
Great. Thanks, everyone. That was really useful.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
