As a beginner, there're some vocabularies that you didn't learn before, and native speaker's speed seems too fast to understand. But don't worry, let's do it step by step. 
1st time: listen and catch the words you know alreay, have a guess about the content.
2nd time: look at the text to check if you guessed it right. 
3rd time: listen one more time, repeat after it.
4th time: practise until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text.

我去北京了 I went to Beijing（for beginner）

Clara, a brilliant data analyst with a mind for numbers, walked into my office looking like a storm cloud. Networking events were her kryptonite. "I freeze up," she confessed, "Small talk? Forget it! I just stand there awkwardly, feeling like a total outsider."

Clara's shyness was hindering her career. Her analytical skills were top-notch, but promotions often went to colleagues who could "schmooze" with decision-makers. I knew I could help.

Our first step was reframing networking. Instead of a dreaded chore, we saw it as an opportunity to connect with people who shared her passion for data. We practiced "elevator pitches" - concise introductions highlighting her expertise. We focused on open-ended questions, like "What's the biggest data challenge you're facing?" to spark engaging conversations.

Next, we tackled the "shy freeze." Role-playing helped Clara practice making eye contact, smiling warmly, and using active listening techniques like nodding and acknowledging what the other person said. We even practiced "exit strategies" - polite ways to excuse herself from a conversation when she felt overwhelmed.

The turning point came when I suggested Clara volunteer at a data analysis conference.  She'd be interacting with people who shared her interests, but in a less intimidating setting.  It worked! Clara's passion for data analysis shone through, and she ended up having stimulating conversations with attendees.

The next networking event was a different story. Armed with her practiced pitch and newfound confidence, Clara actively approached people, discussed data trends, and even shared a few insights herself. She even left with a business card from a potential mentor!

Today, Clara is a networking pro.  She still gets nervous, but she no longer lets shyness hold her back.  Clara's story proves that anyone can become a confident networker with the right tools and a supportive coach.

¿Por qué una inmersión lingüística de español en el norte de África? Pues porque viajar por ese continente saca lo mejor de uno mismo y eso provoca unas ganas de compartir y eso directamente te hace hablar. Además, el norte de Marruecos fue un protectorado español hasta hace 60 años y hay muchas personas que hablan español. por todo eso.
