contents In this work, we propose a simple model to teach the Higgs mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking in particle physics. The basic idea is associated with the analysis of two particles' motion subjected to specific potentials that, in certain situations, will reproduce oscillatory motions with a frequency transfer effect.
