Please learn the International Phonetic Alphabet before posting next time.
shoe = ʃuː
show = ʃəʊ or ʃoʊ depending on the country.

People complain about this all the time, but if you learn the two common pronunciations of any group of letters, you'll have zero problems. "-ow" is basically always pronounced like it is in "show" or how it is in "now"
Elementary schoolers pick up on these patterns with no issues, and foreigners do too. It's literally always some monolingual American complaining about this.
