Now it's time to do some shadowing.
21
So there are a number of different techniques that you can use and let me share four of them with you here.
22
The first technique is that you listen, you read, you pause and then you repeat.
23
The second technique, you don't read, you only listen, pause and repeat.
24
The third technique is you read it and you try and repeat at exactly the same time as me.
25
And then the fourth one is that you don't read
26
but you listen and you try and repeat at the same time as me.
27
Number four is quite tricky but it is doable.

So choose your favourite shadowing technique and we will begin with the first tricky combination.

Gramática en este vídeo
Las estructuras que más usa el hablante, con las palabras exactas del vídeo:
| Estructura | En el vídeo |
|---|---|
| Posibilidad con “might / may” might/may + verbo — algo posible pero no seguro | might run |
| Superlativos the -est / the most … — lo más alto o lo más bajo de un grupo | the most amazing · the most difficult |
| Futuro con “will” will + verbo — una decisión, una promesa o una predicción | will begin · you'll notice · will see |
Pronunciación a tener en cuenta
El hablante usa 8 contracciones y formas reducidas, como don't, I'm, you're. Dilas en su forma corta, tal como las oyes.
- Los sonidos de “th”: loathe /ˈloʊð/, beth /bɛθ/, warmth /wɔɹmθ/, thief /ˈθiːf/, tooth /tuθ/
- Palabras largas — cuida el acento: combinations /kɑmbɪˈneɪʃənz/, availability /əˌveɪ.ləˈbɪl.ɪ.ti/, communicate /kəˈmjuːnɪkeɪt/
Sonidos difíciles para hispanohablantes:
- s + consonante al inicio — sin añadir una “e” delante: sponsor /ˈspɒn.səː/, slot /slɑt/, stairs /ˈstɛɹz/
- /v/ — no es /b/: los dientes tocan el labio inferior: velvet /ˈvɛlvɪt/, nerve /nɝv/, availability /əˌveɪ.ləˈbɪl.ɪ.ti/, volunteer /ˌvɑlənˈtɪɹ/
- /z/ — sonora, no /s/: cosy /ˈkoʊzi/, memorize /ˈmɛm.əˌɹaɪ̯z/, zombie /ˈzɑmbi/, pause /pɔːz/, freeze /ˈfɹiːz/
Cómo practicar con este vídeo
- Escucha el vídeo entero una vez sin hablar y anota las palabras que no conoces.
- Haz shadowing frase por frase a velocidad normal, repitiendo cada una hasta que tu ritmo coincida con el del hablante.
- Grábate y compara con el original, prestando atención a palabras como loathe, cosy, flatmate.
¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
