In this lesson we are going to look at one of the hardest parts of learning any language.
11
Speaking.
12
To speak, to say, to utter a word, to make a statement that can be heard.
13
Day by day you must gain the skill to chat and natter when you want at will.
14
So don't Don't be shy, give it a try, or else you will make Mr Duncan cry.
15
There are many ways of becoming more comfortable and confident when learning to speak out loud.
16
We will look at some simple sentences to help you practice and build your confidence.
17
But first, here is a fun rhyme for you to learn and recite.
18
Every day in every way my English will improve is what I will say.
19
My shyness will shrink and my courage will grow.
20
The more I practice the more I will know.
21
My doubt will vanish and my smile will shine.
22
With regular learning I know I'll be fine.
23
Simple sentences for you to say.
24
Remember, don't be shy.
25
I want to go outside.
26
I want to go outside.
27

37
when it comes to speaking out loud there are many ways of improving your confidence
38
you can look at yourself in the mirror.
39
Look at the way your mouth moves as you pronounce the words.
40
It will feel strange at first
41
but over time you will become more comfortable with how you look whilst speaking the new language.
42
And more importantly your confidence will grow.
43
Listening to your own voice is another good way to improve your attitude to speaking out loud.
44
Record your own voice on a portable device such as a mobile phone or an MP3 recorder.
45
Listen to the sound of your voice as you speak English.
46
This method will help you understand where you might be going wrong with your pronunciation.
47
If you don't like the sound of your voice or the way you speak, then why not change it?
48
Learn to relax and enjoy the experience of practicing to speak.
49
Over time, you will begin to enjoy it more and more.
50
Isn't that right, Mr. Duncan?
51
Yes, Mr. Duncan, you are absolutely right.
52
Both of the activities I've just mentioned can be done alone, but don't forget you can also practice speaking with others who are also learning English,
53
such as a friend or a group of classmates.
54
Most students say that the hardest part of learning a new language is speaking it.
55
So if you have this problem, then relax.
56
It is normal to feel a little bit nervous at first.
57
Doing anything requires some confidence and an understanding of where you are making mistakes whilst learning, whatever it is.
58
The problems are the same.
59
Talking of which, never worry about making mistakes.
60
That is also part of learning something new.
61
I hope this video has been helpful and I will see you soon for another one.
62
I really hope so.
63
This is Mr Duncan in the birthplace of English saying, enjoy the language, have fun with your learning,
64
and of course, ta ta for now.

¿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.
