It's all in pieces, but so beautiful with the old brick.

We're going to stain it, but it looks pretty.

Stone floor is so beautiful.

So pretty, all the details.
36
Okay, this is another approval of the day.

I didn't know what I wanted to do for my fireplace in the kitchen living room, and I'm working with Waldo and Tommy Clements,

and they kind of had this idea to just continue the
39
brick on the inside for the outside of our place and I love it. So, approved.

Honestly, I haven't seen this at all.

45
I don't know if I'm like loving any.

We found this vintage tile.
54
Well Tommy and Waldo did.
55
so we're doing this in one of the showers here and I am in love with it.
56
If it's the only bathroom right now that has a tile moment, it looks a little darker in the shower because it's, they just put it in,

but I think it's going to be very, very fab.

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
