Shadowing-Übung: Life changes – A2 English Listening Test - Englisch Sprechen Lernen mit Video
Lektion wird erstellt...
1
I used to work such long hours that I didn't have any time to enjoy life.
2
I was like a robot – get up, go to work, go back home, sleep.
3
I had no personal life and I started to feel really miserable.
4
I decided that I wanted to have more free time,
5
so I told my boss that I was going through some personal issues and that I needed to work part-time.
6
She agreed.
7
Now I have time to do everything I want.
8
I don't have as much money, but I'm much, much happier.
9
Jasmine is three weeks old today.
10
I remember a month or so ago thinking that I would go back to work within two or three months.
11
Now I know that's not going to happen.
12
I just can't imagine leaving her with someone else.
13
I'll miss my colleagues, of course, but work will pay me an allowance for a year, so I've decided to take that.
14
I worked as a singing teacher for ten years and I've had some really good success stories,
15
But I felt that I had gone as far as I could go in that career and I wanted a change.
16
I didn't just want to do a different job in music.
17
I wanted to do something completely different.
18
That's why I applied to do this engineering course.
19
It's challenging definitely, but I really love it.
20
For the last nine years, I've done the responsible thing.
21
I got a well-paid job close to home so that my wife didn't have to work, and I could be home by half past four to spend time with the kids.
22
It's worked, but I really began to hate work.
23
Now the kids are older, so after some discussion, my wife agreed I could get a job I loved, even though I will be home much later and earn less.
24
I started last week.
25
It's great.
26
My wife and I both had really good jobs, which we really enjoyed.
27
But we rarely saw our kids, and they started to have difficulties at school.
28
We began to think we were being selfish.
29
Together, we were earning far more money than we needed.
30
So we decided that I would give up work and teach the children myself at home.
31
it's not easy but now we spend a lot more time together and it's good for all of us

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.
