You need to improve your English speaking, but how can you do that without someone to speak to?

This is one of the most common questions I get when it comes to learning English and improving.

I think speaking is an area where we all need a bit more practice, but it's very difficult to get practice with other people.

So first of all, getting a teacher can be expensive.

It's difficult to find someone to talk with and pay them because it takes a lot of money.

Of course, I know that it is expensive.

It can be for sure.

And the other methods like language partners can be challenging.

I mean, to find a language partner might take a bit more work.

You might have to do more research, make those connections, make a good introduction and all this kind of stuff that you don't have to do when you're paying a teacher.

And of course, you may have to also spend time in your own language.

So most situations with language exchange partners might be 50 % in English and 50 % in your native language.

So therefore you're not really making the most of your time

because you have to use your own language quite a lot as well.

And of course it may just be quite hard to find

people in your area where you live it may be quite difficult to connect with people who speak English

and for all of these reasons and more speaking can be such a hard skill to practice.

So in today's episode I want to share something

that I've been practicing myself and this is a method to improve your speaking

and get some speaking practice all on your own.

Of course it's not generally going to be as good as with another person

if you're practicing with someone else you're getting live feedback you're getting listening practice as well

and there's a lot more

that goes into it i think we can all agree there's

a lot more in a conversation than just speaking there's also gestures

and facial expressions and all these different feelings and emotions that you don't get when you're speaking on your own.

Having said that, a huge amount of improvement can be seen

when you practice alone and that's exactly what I want to talk about today.

So recently I've been working on a website just for my own personal use to practice speaking in different languages

and I'm going to share that with you today.

This is one of the benefits of using AI these days is that you can code your own web page very easily.

And if you kind of use it well, this can be really, really effective to do many different things.

I think there are many things that you can do on a website

that would be much harder to do in a notebook or in a, you know, Google document or Word document, something like that.

So I'm going to show you what I made today

and I really hope it's going to be useful for you as well.

Maybe it will spark some ideas for you.

So just to give a bit of an overview, this is kind of the website I made for myself.

I am using it to practice my Chinese and my Japanese speaking

and it's been working so well for me

that I decided to just tweak it a little bit tweak means make a small change

and also make an English version just to show you as well.

To be honest, I haven't made this public yet.

Maybe I will when I edit the podcast.

I haven't decided yet.

I mean, if you would like to use this yourself, let me know.

You know, maybe I can add it to my website, but you have to let me know what you think about it. But basically,

I made this with claude claude is a one of the big ai kind of providers these days the llms

and claude is quite good at coding so it you may think you know

if you're not familiar with ai you may think oh it's

not for me it's way too difficult i could never make

a website this really just took i would say five messages to do.

So I wrote my idea to Claude.

I said, basically, I have an idea.

I want to make a website where I can practice my language speaking on my own.

And I said exactly what I want it to have.

I want it to have different question prompts.

So a prompt is something that kind of gives you an idea of what to speak about.

And each day there will be a new prompt to talk about

and it will challenge me to talk for you know maybe 10 minutes

or 20 minutes on a certain topic

and there's a recording button i also asked for an archive

so once i have recorded i can see history and archive of all of my previous

recordings there and also i want to have a streak system

so it will count how many days in a row i study so having

that little streak in there will encourage me to do it

every day i also said i don't think i have time on the weekend

so only do it monday to friday that's what i decided for myself

so it counts the streak from monday to friday

and that's what i started with that it took about three messages to get

that right you know he he made a website for me you know i say he it's an ai

but you know in my mind it's a man for some reason

but yeah claude made a website for me

and it was pretty good i sent another message just to

tweak some things can you make this look different can you

change this part about it oh this isn't working properly

and yeah just a couple messages i ended up with this

i'm showing it on the screen on the video version today

but if you don't want to look that's fine if you're listening

or you're driving that's totally fine it's not a big problem

if you can't see and then i had one more idea the next day

which was to add a vocabulary element too

so down below the recording i have a section called words to practice

so this is where i learn a new word from somewhere i'll add it to this list

and i have the idea to practice

so i've added a few words here like astounded flabbergasted there's some example words

that i can practice here and i can tick them off once i have practiced them

so that's a nice way for me to keep track of these words

and of course the more you practice

and the more you use them the easier they will be to remember in a real conversation

so yeah maybe i will just give you an example now

i thought for today we can do a few examples of this

and i want to show you

and demonstrate to you how this could work for you okay

so let's have a go at this first one here

and this first question says talk for 10 minutes on one

question what makes a good life now i'm going to keep

an eye on my vocab list at the bottom here uh what you know

so before i answer So I'm going to try and think what words might be useful.

100

I might come up with for, pray to, and groggy.

101

I'm going to try and use these words.

102

So, okay, what makes a good life?

103

Let me talk.

104

I'm not going to talk for 10 minutes, probably, but let me just have a go.

105

Give you an example so in my opinion there are many things

106

that can contribute to a good life i believe

107

that a good life is often one that has uh

108

that is focused on health so

109

if you look after your body then you will have a better life

110

if you feel good and you look good especially feel is more important then I believe you can have a good life.

111

If you exercise and you walk every day,

112

if you avoid junk food and you eat relatively healthily,

113

I believe these things can have a huge impact on your life.

114

I also think similarly, sleep has a big impact as well.

115

Just the quality of your sleep really affects how you feel the next day.

116

If you don't have a good night's sleep you will wake up feeling very groggy.

117

Groggy is that grumpy feeling in the morning when you're sleepy.

118

If you can get your sleep to a healthy level you will wake up feeling good.

119

Actually I forgot to start recording so let me record here.

120

It's recording me now but yeah you will wake up feeling good and not groggy if you get a good night's sleep.

121

And I just know from personal experience, if I don't sleep well,

122

I feel miserable for the whole day.

123

So that definitely has a huge impact on a good life.

124

I also think two big things that come to mind are hobbies and social connection.

125

So to tackle the first one, if you don't have any hobbies,

126

I don't see how you could live a meaningful, fulfilled life.

127

Just doing things that you love that make you happy every day, to me, that plays a huge role in my enjoyment of life.

128

And I would say.. if I ever feel sad, it might be because I don't have enough hobbies.

129

So that could be one possible reason for not having a good life.

130

And as I said, loneliness could be another one.

131

So social connection is hugely important.

132

If you are surrounded by friends and family, this can make you feel happy and satisfied.

133

However, if you are isolated, you don't have good friends

134

and you spend a lot of time on your own i

135

think over time this can have a bad effect on you

136

and people who fall prey to this kind of temptation of

137

spending time alone will end up being less happy right

138

so fall prey to something is another one of my new words i wanted to practice

139

but to fall prey to is to be a victim to something to accidentally have something happen

140

so i fell prey to

141

not making friends it's very easy not to make friends

142

and live a life alone but this is something we should avoid

143

and not let that not let that problem overtake us

144

so there we go there was my answer

145

if i stop recording here i can i can save it

146

and it takes a second yeah then it says saved nice work today and then if I go to my archive page

147

I can see the question and my answer is here

148

and the date right so this also allows me to go back through time

149

and hopefully see my improvements

150

so let's imagine I'm doing this for one year i can listen to my answer today

151

and to my answer one year ago and hopefully i can hear

152

that difference i can see or hear the improvements in my speaking

153

and i think

154

that will be really motivating once you start to hear your

155

confidence growing i've only been doing this for a few days myself

156

so i haven't got to that point yet

157

but i really hope that's going to be a factor in the future as well.

158

And by the way, if you stick around until the end of this episode, I will tell you how you can make your own website like this for yourself.

159

I'll explain more about that at the end.

160

And if some of you may already be quite familiar with how to use AI and technical stuff like this, but maybe some of you are not.

161

So I'll try to explain it at the end of this episode.

162

And just for this example, I've also allowed myself to go through different days.

163

So if we go through to tomorrow we can have a look at tomorrow's prompt here so

164

if i wake up tomorrow this would be what it said

165

describe your ideal day what time do you wake up where do you go what makes it enjoyable hmm

166

so this one is a little bit easier than before perhaps but describe your ideal day.

167

I might want to use come up with for this one and astounded.

168

So let's use these two in this answer.

169

So start recording here.

170

So while thinking about what my perfect day would look like, quite a few things are coming to me.

171

It's difficult to come up with, that means think about a perfect day because I have

172

so many different ideas in my mind of what could contribute to

173

that perfect day but to get more specific I think I would wake up quite early

174

because recently I have found that you know waking up early makes my day feel longer and therefore I can extract,

175

take more happiness out of my day.

176

In fact when I first started waking up early I was astounded by just how much I could achieve in the day.

177

Astounded means surprised.

178

I was really astounded by just how much I accomplished in one day

179

and I realized before I was just sleeping too much

180

and therefore I didn't have enough time to do everything I wanted to do

181

so I would definitely wake up early

182

and in regards to where I would go I might like

183

to explore some new area for me seeing something different having

184

a new environment is a big part in the enjoyment of

185

my day it plays a big role in how much I enjoy the day

186

so I probably would just pick somewhere on the map where I haven't explored before and see what it's like.

187

It's a bit of a mystery of course because it might be terrible

188

and boring and ugly but it also might be beautiful and peaceful. and exciting.

189

So I don't know what I'm expecting, but I think the surprise is part of the excitement to me.

190

And yeah, what makes it enjoyable?

191

Well, I kind of already explained that the unknown aspect of where I'm going is what makes it enjoyable.

192

But I think the key thing is that I'm doing something new and I'm doing it with people I like.

193

I know that sounds simple, but I think at the end of the day

194

if you're surrounded by friends

195

that you enjoy spending time with you will have a good day

196

so yeah that could be my answer there stop recording save recording

197

if we go back to the archive now you will see Thursday

198

and Friday both of these recordings are archived and recorded there

199

and I don't know about you

200

but for me recording my practice really makes a big difference

201

so the reason why I made this website is

202

because I was just kind of talking to myself before I would sit down on my at my desk

203

and I would look at some words I want to practice

204

or maybe some grammar and I would just talk I would talk on my own

205

and there would be no way to record it

206

and even though this might be quite useful I just found

207

it it felt very pointless it felt very silly I'm just talking to myself

208

and there's no way to show how I've spent my time I don't know

209

if you agree with me

210

but for some reason recording my practice in like this kind

211

of an archive of everything I do how much time I'm spending on it this really helps motivate me

212

because i can see how much work i've put into it

213

and it's also nice to track each day as well

214

so there's something about

215

that for me that's just recording what i'm doing is more motivating maybe you feel the same

216

and if so

217

if you are like me maybe you can think about other ways you can record what you do i think

218

when it comes to language study i tend to record everything

219

so I've got data on everything I do and

220

that makes it more motivating for me to continue

221

but yeah maybe that's just me but I wonder if

222

if other people are the same as well let me know

223

if you are let's go to Saturday now well actually no this will go ahead so this might be Monday now Anyway,

224

it doesn't really matter.

225

But the next day says, tell the story of a memorable trip.

226

What happened?

227

Why do you still remember it?

228

And what would you do differently now?

229

By the way, I should say, all of these questions, they're not my questions.

230

I just asked Claude to give a list of questions.

231

I think I described what kind of questions to use, like kind of just give everyday questions

232

that would be useful in a prompt not too easy not too difficult

233

and this is these are the questions

234

that claude came up with all on its own i didn't give any really ideas

235

or examples so it's quite impressive that it's got a huge list of questions

236

and i suppose eventually i'm going to finish all of them

237

and at that point i can just give another message to Claude and ask for some more questions, maybe 100 more questions for the next 100 days.

238

That should take a few seconds, right?

239

So yeah, to me, this is a very effective way to use AI.

240

Let's continue until I've finished all of my new words.

241

So a memorable trip, I want to use flabbergasted and irate.

242

These are both adjectives here.

243

Okay, start recording.

244

today i want to talk about a memorable trip

245

that i have taken and the first one

246

that comes to my mind is one of my probably my most recent trip besides going back to the uk

247

and that was my trip to south korea now the reason this was memorable for me is

248

because i embarked on a big adventure my goal was to

249

cycle from Seoul in the north to Busan in the south

250

and I can cut to the end of the story now

251

I was successful I successfully crossed the entire country by bicycle

252

and of course it goes without saying

253

that this was a memorable trip what happened on the trip

254

you might be wondering well it's hard to summarize in just a few

255

sentences because so many things happened it was a huge adventure

256

but basically I woke up every day and I got on my bike

257

and I cycled according to the plan

258

that I had made before the plan I had the route on my phone

259

and there were a few things

260

that surprised me about South Korea i think one thing where

261

i felt kind of flabbergasted is just how empty the country

262

seemed i flabbergasted it's a very funny word to me

263

but it kind of just means yeah really surprised or shocked

264

or amazed i flabbergasted whoa that's incredible um it's quite strong word

265

so maybe it's not really appropriate here

266

but i was really flabbergasted i was like speechless with shock almost

267

so yeah maybe it's too strong for this example but anyway I want to talk about

268

when I think of South Korea I think of you know

269

Seoul a big city like many Asian countries I think of like a big population like you might in China

270

or Japan you know lots of people in in one place

271

but what really surprised me was just how rural the country

272

seemed you know as I cycled through I didn't see

273

that many towns or cities there was so much countryside

274

so many mountains and forests and that was a big shock to me

275

and the reason why I remember it now is firstly

276

because it was still quite a recent trip

277

so it's still somewhat fresh in my mind but I think also

278

because it was so different it's not every day you cycle across a whole country

279

and for that reason it's something that I doubt I will be forgetting very soon.

280

What would I do differently now, you ask?

281

That's a good question.

282

What would I do differently now?

283

Let me have a think about it.

284

I would say one area that I wasn't totally prepared for was the food aspect.

285

There were some days where it was very difficult to find food again

286

because it was so rural and I found myself getting more

287

and more grumpy because as I ran out of food I would get angry

288

and I'd have to work really hard and say something went wrong I would just get really irate.

289

Irate means angry by the way.

290

I would get really irate.

291

So say I was cycling, I got off my bike and then the pedal hit my shin, it hit my leg and it really hurt.

292

If I felt normal, if I had breakfast and I had lunch, I wasn't hungry, I would be like, ouch, that hurts, that's painful.

293

But because I was so hungry, I got really irate and I got really angry because not only was I in pain,

294

but I was also very hungry as well

295

and i think i know you can relate to

296

that feeling right it's a horrible feeling so

297

if i could go back in time i would probably prepare some more food to bring

298

and that would allow me to keep going despite uh despite the hunger

299

and also also some more water bottles as well okay you know how it works now as you can see

300

if you do it every day you will have that streak here.

301

I did notice that it has included Saturday, which I think is something I would need to fix on my website

302

because I decided I don't want to study on Saturday.

303

So that's a problem, but it's only an example today, isn't it?

304

And then once again on the archive page, I now have some nice history here that I can compare to.

305

But yeah, I think that's basically it.

306

Oh, Also, I had ponder.

307

So, OK, let me do 30 seconds more.

308

Talk about a mistake that you made. So ponder.

309

Hmm.

310

OK, let me ponder this question for a while.

311

Hmm.

312

Ponder means think about, think about something.

313

If I really ponder on this question, I might talk about the time where I booked,

314

I missed my flight and I had to pay for a new flight home

315

that was a very big mistake that I won't be making again

316

if you want to hear more mistakes

317

that I've made recently I actually did record a full private podcast all about this last week

318

so you can hear my episode on mistakes on levelupenglish .school

319

but yeah anyway that's basically it

320

so it's quite a simple episode today I wanted to showcase my idea to practice your speaking

321

and let me know what you think.

322

this is the part now where I can kind of tell you how you can make this yourself

323

so as I said I used Claude sometimes I do pay for Claude you can pay monthly

324

or annually and I do find it is useful

325

if you're building a big website

326

if you're just building one web page like this I think

327

you can use it for free probably at the moment

328

and it might you know you might use up your usage message temporarily

329

but then if you wait six hours you can send another message and try again

330

and yeah I think you can probably make it for free again

331

if you do it correctly it might just take five messages to get the final code

332

so it will make a code for you

333

that you can use on a website

334

and this code can be opened on your computer

335

but i think one thing we want to do is make sure you can save your data

336

so my website is also saving my vocabulary it's also saving my streak

337

and more importantly my audio files of course these audio files take up space

338

so because of that i've hosted it on my website

339

but what some of you may not know is you can get a free hosting platform so

340

if it's only for personal use there are some places where

341

you can make a website maybe you can just type in something like make website for free online

342

and you can sign up and you don't have to pay for any host

343

or any domain name you don't need to have you know michael .com for example i don't have

344

that on mine it's just a random

345

a few letters and numbers

346

but yeah i think there are some services where you can do it for free

347

and then you can host it on their website and

348

if you're not using too much memory you should be able

349

to do it for free on some of them i mean this is also another thing

350

that honestly you could ask ai as well

351

so once you've made the website you could say now can

352

you tell me can you explain very very simply how can i host this website

353

so i can use it for personal use i think you would have to make it clear

354

that i don't want to share it with anyone i don't

355

need it to be public i i'm going to be the only user

356

but i need the data to be saved every time i visit

357

so that's what you need to say and yeah

358

if you do get confused i think ai should be able to help with

359

that as well

360

so I know some of you I'm sure you can make

361

a website many of you can't that's why I'm trying to

362

explain it in a way to those of you who who don't know how really

363

but I think a lot of you would be surprised just how easy this would be

364

so for me I already have a website host

365

that I pay for of course because I host Level Up English my main website

366

so I'm just kind of using a different website on the same host for this kind of personal private one

367

and that works well for me but yeah i haven't paid anything to make this

368

and i do think there are ways we could improve it too i always think

369

when it comes to language learning there's almost like a balance

370

between how much time you want to spend on setting up your learning materials

371

and how much time you should actually spend learning.

372

Now, you could spend a long time buying a comfortable chair, a desk, getting loads of notebooks, making the perfect study environment.

373

But of course, in that time, you're not studying at all.

374

It's kind of wasting time.

375

So there's definitely a balance here.

376

You want to have something that you can use, but don't fall into the trap or don't fall prey to wasting time on things

377

that aren't so important but if i'm looking at this website maybe one area

378

that could be added i think could be quite fun

379

and motivating is a bit of uh what could we say it's kind of like gamification

380

or some more statistics that are recorded like imagine a thing at the top

381

that said you know this year you have spoken english for five hours

382

and you oh that's nice and maybe there's a goal

383

that says you know speak for 50 hours in one year that's one hour a week roughly

384

so that would be a good goal

385

and then you can see your progress as you work towards

386

that goal that could be a really fun addition to motivate you to work a bit harder

387

and you know what just came to my mind what would be really fun is

388

if you could publish this website and share it with friends.

389

That would be amazing, right?

390

Imagine you could do this

391

and you can compete with your friends to see who has done the most speaking practice in the week.

392

Maybe that's a bit too complicated

393

but I think there are many ways you could improve it

394

with just a few messages you can make a website that works for you.

395

But I guess the final thing I'll say is it doesn't have to be this technical.

396

If some of you are very kind of anti -AI

397

or you're just not good with this stuff at all then of course you can do it manually.

398

What I used to do is just record on my phone

399

and store all of my recordings in a folder on my computer

400

that was kind of the basic way this way is just a bit more streamlined

401

which means kind of faster and tidier basically there are different ways you could do it

402

but for those who don't know i just wanted to share

403

that method today of using ai to benefit your own learning

404

but yeah i think i'll end my rant there about ai i hope you found that useful

405

and i do want to share one thank you now to

406

olive in the uk i wonder where olive is i wonder where you're

407

when you wait where are you writing from olive

408

but anyway olive left a lovely review on apple podcasts

409

and it reads i listen to this podcast regularly on my way to the office it helps a lot

410

and that would be good to do more episodes such as 388

411

or UK slang

412

so I can use it in daily life in the UK

413

414

418

and see what i can do soon

419

so thank you very much for your review as well

420

and i also have a quote here from brian tracy

421

and this is one of the very worst uses of time is to do something very well

422

that need not be done at all this is quite a cool one

423

so it's such a waste of time to be really good at something

424

that doesn't need to be done what a waste that is

425

so yeah that could be relevant to today i think don't waste all your time on stuff

426

that isn't actually helping you maybe for some of you making this website would be one of them anyway well

427

429

and answering them myself and hopefully this will give you some ideas on questions

430

that you could answer in your own english speaking practice as well

431

of course you can always submit your practice on the website too

432

Grammatik in diesem Video

Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:

Struktur	Im Video
Bedingungssätze if + Satz, will/would + Verb – eine Bedingung und ihre Folge	if i wake up tomorrow this would be

Aussprache, auf die du achten solltest

Der Sprecher verwendet 106 Kurzformen und abgeschwächte Formen, zum Beispiel I'm, don't, you're. Sprich sie in der kurzen Form, so wie du sie hörst.

Die Laute „sh“ und „zh“: shin /ʃɪn/, temptation /ˌtɛmpˈteɪʃən/, showcase /ˈʃoʊˌkeɪs/, accomplish /əˈkɑm.plɪʃ/, publish /ˈpʌblɪʃ/
Lange Wörter – auf die Betonung achten: vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, manually /ˈmænj(u)əliː/, temporarily /ˌtɛmpəˈɹɛɹəli/, miserable /ˈmɪz(ə)ɹəbəl/, importantly /ɪmˈpɔɹ.tənt.li/

Laute, die Deutschsprachigen schwerfallen:

/w/ — mit runden Lippen, nicht wie das deutsche „w“ (/v/): tweak /twiːk/, whoa /woʊ/
Stimmhafter Auslaut — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ am Wortende nicht verhärten: archive /ˈɑɹˌkaɪv/, astound /əˈstaʊnd/, olive /ˈɑ.lɪv/, surround /səˈɹaʊnd/, adjective /ˈæd͡ʒ.ɪk.tɪv/
/æ/ — offener als „ä“: flabbergast /ˈflæbɚˌɡæst/, podcast /ˈpɑdˌkæst/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, adjective /ˈæd͡ʒ.ɪk.tɪv/, rant /ɹænt/

So übst du mit diesem Video

Höre dir das ganze Video einmal an, ohne zu sprechen, und notiere die Wörter, die du nicht kennst.
Beginne mit 0,75-facher Geschwindigkeit, sprich Satz für Satz nach und wechsle zur normalen Geschwindigkeit, sobald es leichtfällt.
Nimm dich auf und vergleiche mit dem Original; achte dabei auf Wörter wie archive, flabbergast, motivate.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
