Shadowing Practice: STOP Thinking In Your Language Before You Speak English - Learn English Speaking with Video

Someone asks you a question in English and in the half second before you answer, you leave.

You go into your own language, you build the sentence there, the version that actually sounds like you, sharp and specific, and then you carry it back,

translate it and open your mouth.

Two seconds have passed.

The person is still waiting and the thing you finally say is smaller than what you meant.

Stop thinking in your language before you speak English.

You've heard it a hundred times.

Maybe a teacher said it.

Maybe you've said it to yourself in the middle of a conversation and it never worked once because it's not advice.

It's an order to stop doing something without giving you anywhere else to go.

You see your brain, my friend, it's not broken and your English is not the problem.

Something else is happening.

And once you see it, you can't unsee it.

So are you ready?

Well then let's jump right in part number one.

What's actually happening in the brain.

Let me explain how a habit gets built.

Picture a grassy field.

The grass is very high.

So the first time you walk across it, there's no path you push through.

It's slow.

You're moving your feet one step at a time.

You have to decide where to step.

Now walk the same line tomorrow and the next day and the next day.

And all of a sudden the grass starts to flatten a trail appears.

Now walk that same path for years and it becomes a dirt road.

You don't choose it anymore.

Your feet just go your feet.

Know where to go.

That is a habit.

The brain builds a physical route for anything you realize repeat and then hands the job over to a deeper,

faster part of itself.

So it doesn't have to think about it.

This is a habit.

You're doing the same thing over and over.

Why does the brain do this?

You see, thinking is actually expensive.

The brain is always trying to spend less trying to conserve energy.

So it looks for anything you do the same way twice and asks, Hey, can I make this automatic?

This is something that he or she is doing over and over again.

So can I make this automatic?

There are three parts to every habit.

There's a trigger.

Something happens.

Something starts the process.

Then there's a routine.

You do the thing.

There is something.

There's an action.

There's a behavior.

You have a trigger, a routine, and then a payoff.

A payoff is you get something out of it, whether it's relief, whether it's safety and answer,

or even avoided embarrassment, a trigger, a routine, a payoff.

You see the payoff is what tells the brain, keep this road.

It works.

This is something that brings a result, a payoff.

So why are these habits so hard to break?

You see, you can't erase a road.

The trail is still there.

Even if you stop using it, the ground stays packed.

Think about that example I gave earlier, the analogy a few moments ago.

You've walked this path so much.

The trail is not going anywhere.

Even if you don't use it every single day anymore, that trail, that path is still going to be there.

It fires also before you notice.

The habit actually starts before you even realize it.

The automatic part of the brain moves faster than the thinking part.

Listen closely.

The automatic part, it actually moves quicker, moves faster than the thinking part.

By the time you catch yourself, you're already halfway down the road because the habit is automatic.

Now it works.

This is the big one.

The brain doesn't keep habits because they're good.

It keeps them because they deliver.

They give a payoff.

Now a bad habit that produces a result beats a better habit that produces nothing yet.

Listen, so if there's a habit in place, automatically translating, whenever someone asks you something in English, that is the habit you want to break,

but it is a habit.

Now, when you're trying to bring in a new habit that doesn't have any results, any payoff yet the brain says nope we're going to default back to

that old habit even though it's the one you want to change

And why another reason why habits are so hard to break?

Willpower is the wrong tool.

My friend up until now you've been trying to use your willpower to break that habit.

I won't translate.

I'll think in English, but willpower is the wrong tool.

Don't walk down that road.

Don't use that path.

Don't use that habit.

This leaves you standing in the field with nowhere to go.

I see the path that I've always gone down, the bad habit, always translating.

I don't want to do that.

Now I'm stuck at a crossroads.

What do I do?

You see, the brain needs somewhere to go, not something to avoid.

So how does a habit actually change?

We understand how it's made.

We understand why it's hard to actually break it.

But how does a habit actually change?

You don't delete the old road.

100

That old road is still going to be there.

101

Instead, you have to build a new one and then you make it the easier one.

102

That old path that was the default, now you ignore it by making a new one and this new one has to be the easier one.

103

You keep the same trigger.

104

Change what happens next.

105

The trigger is there, but you have to change what happens next.

106

The new path starts as flattened grass.

107

It will feel slow.

108

It will feel clumsy and worse than the old road.

109

That's not failure though.

110

That's what new actually feels like.

111

It only becomes automatic through repetition, not intensity, frequency.

112

You have to do it over and over again.

113

You've been relying on that old path so long it's become automatic.

114

You have to change, create a new habit and repeat it over and over and over again.

115

The old road never fully disappears under stress when you're tired or when you feeling pressure,

116

your feet will find that old path again.

117

That's normal, not relapse.

118

Now we enter part number two, applying this to the translation habit.

119

Now the road that already exists, we're speaking about your habit of translating.

120

What's the trigger?

121

The trigger is someone asks you something in English.

122

Hey, how was your day?

123

Hey, what do you like doing?

124

Hey, what happened to your friend?

125

Someone asked you something in English.

126

This is the trigger.

127

Number two, though, the routine.

128

You pull the meaning into your own language.

129

We're talking about that old path, that road that exists.

130

They've asked you something in English.

131

Now comes your routine.

132

You pull the meaning into your own language.

133

You organize the full answer there.

134

Then you convert it to English.

135

You convert it into English and then you speak.

136

The routine is receive it, translate it to your own language, convert it into English, and then speak.

137

This is stressful, but this is the routine you've been following.

138

And listen, I understand when I was learning Korean, I was doing the same thing.

139

And what's the payoff?

140

You get a complete, safe, correct sounding answer and you avoid sounding foolish.

141

This is the road that already exists.

142

The trigger, the routine, the payoff.

143

Now that last part is why this habit is so strong.

144

It's not laziness, it's protection.

145

You've been protecting yourself.

146

The brain built this road because it prevents embarrassment.

147

You don't want to feel embarrassed and it has been rewarded for it.

148

Thousands upon thousands of times.

149

Someone asks you a question in English.

150

You pull the meaning into your own language.

151

You organize the full answer converted into English and you speak.

152

Yes, it takes time, but you have a complete and safe answer and you're not embarrassed.

153

You've done this thousands upon thousands of times.

154

So why just stop translating that phrase, just stop translating doesn't work.

155

Why does this not actually work for you?

156

You see, just stop translating is an instruction to avoid a road without offering a new one.

157

The moment a question arrives, the brain needs to go somewhere immediately.

158

If there's no alternative route built yet, it takes a little bit of a It takes the road it knows, well, you're not offering me anything else.

159

So I'm going to go down the translation road every time.

160

And it takes it fast because you can catch it.

161

So what has to be built instead?

162

What has to be built in order for you to stop translating and finally start thinking in English.

163

Now the trigger, someone asking you that question in English has to stay the same someone asks you a question in English.

164

What changes though is what happens in the very next second.

165

The answer has to start forming in English, not in your language before it's complete.

166

Right now, up until now, you've been wanting to speak after you have a complete answer formulated in your head.

167

No, you have to start answering, forming your answer in English, even before it's complete, before you have it fully organized, before it's safe.

168

And I know this is going to be uncomfortable, but we have to create a new road because that old road, that default road of translating into your language,

169

it's not going to work for you anymore.

170

This means the new road has to give a payoff to remember trigger routine and payoff.

171

That old road had the payoff after you follow a routine.

172

This new road we're creating.

173

It has to give a payoff to something the brain gets right now.

174

The moment stays alive.

175

The conversation keeps going.

176

You sound present instead of delayed.

177

That's the payoff.

178

The person listening to you follows along.

179

The conversation keeps going.

180

This is a payoff.

181

There's no pause where they're staring at you.

182

And here's the critical point.

183

This new road produces a worse sounding answer at first.

184

Your grammar may be incorrect.

185

You may be stuttering.

186

You may be fumbling over your words.

187

At first, your answer is going to sound worse than the old road you were following.

188

It's going to sound simpler, less impressive, and less like you.

189

That's the real barrier.

190

And it's not linguistic.

191

It has nothing to do with your English ability, the knowledge you have.

192

You see the old road hands you a polished answer that arrives too late.

193

There's too long of a pause.

194

The conversation won't flow with that old road.

195

However, even though it's uncomfortable in the beginning, the new road hands you a rough answer that arrives on time,

196

keeping the conversation moving.

197

Your brain has been trained to prefer the polished road.

198

The one that gives you this complete answer.

199

However, there's a long pause as you wait for that answer to come.

200

But my friend fluency English fluency requires preferring being on time versus preferring being perfect and complete.

201

I know it sounds weird, but stay with me.

202

Fluency requires being on time, preferring the timing over the complete response.

203

This leads us to part number three, how this new habit, this new road is built.

204

The one rule of habit change.

205

I want to tell you is this, you cannot remove a habit, that old road.

206

You can't remove it.

207

You can only replace the middle of it.

208

You see every habit again has three parts.

209

Two of them say we mentioned earlier the trigger.

210

You're going to keep this part of a habit.

211

Keep the trigger.

212

You can't stop people from asking you things in English.

213

So the trigger is going to remain for our new habit.

214

Part two, routine.

215

This is the only piece of a habit that will change.

216

Remember we have trigger, routine, and payoff.

217

The trigger, you have to keep it.

218

The routine is going to have to change.

219

And the payoff, you want to keep it.

220

The brain will not accept a swap, a change out of a habit that gives it nothing.

221

So you need the trigger and you need the payoff, the trigger and the payoff.

222

Now, most people listen closely try to change the trigger.

223

How?

224

They try to avoid the situation.

225

If they see someone coming, there's a native English speaker.

226

They try to go the other way.

227

If someone is speaking in English, they try to slowly step back.

228

They try to change the trigger by avoiding the situation or they fight the payoff.

229

Just tolerate feeling bad.

230

You see both fail though.

231

The only workable target is the middle.

232

You have to change the routine.

233

Now here's the gap.

234

You see between the trigger and the routine, there is a tiny space, half a second where the brain has not committed yet.

235

You receive the question.

236

This is the trigger.

237

The brain has not decided which road, which path to take yet in an old habit.

238

That space is invisible.

239

You automatically lean to that road, the trigger and routine feel like one motion.

240

Question is asked automatically go to my brain and I translate it in my language.

241

That feels like one motion.

242

Habit change lives entirely inside that space right in the middle.

243

Everything else is automatic.

244

The first job isn't doing something different.

245

It's noticing that the space exists.

246

Hold on.

247

Someone asks me a question and there is a short moment where my brain is trying to decide how to answer,

248

how to deal with this question.

249

That's the space you have to notice.

250

This is why awareness has to come before effort.

251

Do you recognize that short space of time after someone has asked you a question?

252

You cannot redirect a road you don't know you're on.

253

If you don't even realize that space, you just automatically go to that initial road.

254

Once you can fill the gap, that short period of time, you have a choice.

255

Before recognizing it though, you don't.

256

So how does this new routine get built?

257

Now it has to be small.

258

The brain will not adopt a large, effortful replacement.

259

It compares cost.

260

Think about that old road.

261

It's cheap.

262

It's easy.

263

You've done it so many times.

264

There's no effort.

265

There's no extra energy.

266

You're just defaulting to what is easy.

267

However, the big new road is expensive.

268

It is going to take a lot of effort.

269

If that's the case, you will always go back to the old road because it's less effort, less energy required.

270

The new routine.

271

So must be so small.

272

It barely qualifies as an action in order for your brain to switch to this new habit,

273

But this new road, it must be a small incremental change, small enough that skipping it takes more effort than doing it.

274

So it has to be tied to the same trigger.

275

What's our trigger again?

276

Someone asking you a question in English.

277

Now a new routine floating on its own is just a good idea.

278

It has to be attached to something.

279

It has to be tied to an existing trigger.

280

Our trigger again is someone asking a question in English.

281

It now will become a reflex as you're training yourself.

282

So it's the same starting point, the same doorway, just a different room.

283

We're going to a different routine.

284

Now it has to pay off immediately.

285

The brain doesn't accept promises.

286

It accepts results now.

287

So a payoff six months away is invisible to the part of the brain that runs habits.

288

You need an immediate payoff and immediate response.

289

So this new routine, this new habit, right?

290

We're forming part two, being the routine trigger, then routine has to reduce something you can feel in the same moment you do it.

291

As soon as you do this, it has to be immediate relief, momentum, the sense that something worked again.

292

Again, this is why you keep defaulting to the old habit, the old road, because there is a payoff with this new habit,

293

this new routine that has to be an immediate payoff.

294

Now, the next thing is it has to repeat more often than it has to go well.

295

So frequency builds the road.

296

Remember we started our lesson off speaking about this road,

297

this grass that you're walking through this creating this road because you're going through it over and over and over again.

298

Frequency builds this new road.

299

Quality does not.

300

This is something that as I've worked with so many English learners over the years, I have to get them to understand.

301

And I want you to understand the same thing.

302

You've been focusing on perfecting your grammar.

303

Grammar is important.

304

You've been working on making sure you use the right word, the right expression.

305

These things are important.

306

However, when you are trying to stop translating, stop going down this road and create a new road,

307

a new habit, you cannot focus on quality first.

308

You have to focus on frequency doing it over and over and over.

309

Don't worry.

310

The quality will come 20 rough repetitions, making mistakes.

311

Be too careful ones.

312

You're going to make mistakes.

313

Keep making them over and over.

314

Think about a child, a baby

315

when a baby is trying to learn how to walk those first steps those first few months are rough

316

that baby is not work walking perfectly but the baby Continues to do it over and over and over again.

317

Repetition is important.

318

And eventually that baby starts to walk.

319

Well, turned into a toddler, turned into a little kid, continues to do it over and over again, and then the quality comes.

320

This is the part that English learners get backwards.

321

They wait until they can do it well, which means they never do it often.

322

I am telling you today, if you want to create this new road, This new habit, not translating.

323

That's the default.

324

The old road is translating into your language.

325

If you want to stop translating, create this new road, you have to do it.

326

Making mistakes often, frequently, just keep going.

327

Now here's the dip that nobody warns you about.

328

There is a stretch and the hardest stretch where the new road is still grass.

329

It's slow.

330

It's awkward.

331

It's unreliable.

332

You're going to be stumbling, making mistakes.

333

You're going to feel like what's wrong with my English, but you have to keep pushing through.

334

The old road is still a highway and you kind of look back on it and say, ah, it's just so comfortable for me just to translate in my language and just go back there.

335

It feels familiar.

336

It feels faster.

337

It feels smooth sitting right there waiting for you

338

and the results from the new road are objectively worse than what the old road was producing.

339

You're at this crossroad.

340

I can just default back to translating and I'll get a complete answer.

341

Doing this new way, creating this new habit, I'm making mistakes and it doesn't feel comfortable.

342

This is the moment almost everyone,

343

almost every English learner quits and they quit for a rational sounding reason this new road isn't working.

344

I was better before.

345

That's the thought that pops in their mind.

346

They were.

347

That's what the transition looks like.

348

Getting worse temporarily is the entry fee, not a sign of failure.

349

Listen to me.

350

You making mistakes over and over again is not a sign of failure.

351

It's a sign that you're making a new path.

352

You're creating a new road.

353

And if you keep going down this new road, you will succeed.

354

Now the old road you have to remember doesn't die.

355

The old road doesn't go anywhere.

356

It stays packed down for years, kind of calling your name.

357

Hey, if you ever get nervous, come back, come back to me.

358

I have your back.

359

You can rely on me.

360

Just translate to your own language under pressure, being fatigued, or when When there are high stakes, the brain reaches for the strongest available root,

361

which is still the old one.

362

Slipping back is not starting over.

363

The new road doesn't vanish because you took the old one once.

364

Listen closely.

365

If you fall back into translating, the new road isn't going to go anywhere.

366

The habit is broken not when you stop using the old road, but when the new one becomes the first thing your feet find.

367

Listen, the old road doesn't go anywhere.

368

The new road is being created and every once in a while you're going to default back, go back to translating.

369

The new road is still there, but the habit is not broken.

370

This habit, this new habit is not grasped until it's the first thing you reach for instead of the old habit.

371

This leads us to part number four, building the new routine.

372

Remember we have the trigger, the routine and the payoff building the new routine.

373

So what the routine actually is the old routine was you hear the topic, whether it be that English question or a discussion topic,

374

you build the answer in your language, and then you convert it to English.

375

Here's the new routine, the new habit here the topic reach for a shape I've already built in English.

376

I'm going to break it down for you.

377

You see, the difference is not effort.

378

It's having somewhere to reach.

379

The reason your mother tongue wins is that it's the only place of fully organized answer already exists.

380

Of course, you've been speaking your mother tongue, your mother language, your entire life.

381

So you have organized answers already.

382

They're ready to be accessed.

383

The new routine fixes that by putting organized answers in English before the conversation happens.

384

Oh, I love teaching English.

385

When you start having ready -made answers, think about food.

386

Okay.

387

We're going to pause really quickly.

388

Think about food.

389

You have food that you can buy in a package, right?

390

You go to the store.

391

It's a frozen meal.

392

You put it in the microwave and you heat it up and it's ready to eat.

393

Then you have homemade food.

394

You have to take the ingredients and put them together.

395

It takes a bit more work.

396

What we're saying is you're going to have ready -made answers that you can just take out, pop in the microwave in your brain and then produce the response.

397

That's what the fluency panion is.

398

It's not a lesson.

399

It's a set of pre -built roads.

400

We're going to get now into the routine.

401

The routine is called the fluency panion.

402

There are four rings for the fluency panion.

403

Again, developing this new habit, this routine.

404

So there are four rings.

405

The center ring is the topic or the question.

406

Remember, we're building this new routine.

407

The center is the topic or question.

408

One thing, not a lesson, not a category, something someone actually asks you.

409

Ring number one now is the three details.

410

Facts about that topic.

411

Nothing personal, nothing evaluative, just what it is.

412

Then the second ring is your opinion plus three reasons.

413

What you think and why you think it.

414

And now we have a third ring.

415

Your personal experience plus the five W's, you know, who, what, when, where, and why.

416

Now each ring is a complete answer on its own.

417

Any of them can stand alone in a real conversation.

418

Remember we have trigger routine and payoff.

419

And right now we're creating a new routine using what we're calling the fluency panion.

420

Four rings, the center, ring one, ring two, and ring three.

421

So let's practice this now.

422

I want you to take one topic and answer it three times.

423

We're going to do this together.

424

Once through each ring out loud.

425

In order for us to create this new path, this new road, we have to use this new routine that we're calling the fluency pannion.

426

Our new routine with these three rings and this topic in the center.

427

So let's say our topic, our center topic is where did you travel to last year?

428

That's the trigger as well, right?

429

Our topic, the question, where did you travel to last year?

430

Ring one, right?

431

Ring one routine.

432

All right.

433

Three details.

434

I traveled to Cabo, Mexico.

435

It's on the Southern tip of the Baja peninsula.

436

The weather stays warm almost all year.

437

Most of the town sits right along the water.

438

We're making this path.

439

We have our routine.

440

The trigger was the question.

441

Now our first ring for this routine is state three details.

442

Now we have the next layer of our routine is ring two.

443

Our opinion plus three reasons.

444

The question again, the trigger, where did you travel to last year?

445

Now ring two is my opinion plus three reasons.

446

Ah, I traveled to Cabo, Mexico, and I think it's one of the best places to visit.

447

The beaches are beautiful and easy to get to.

448

The food is incredible and it doesn't cost much.

449

And people there are genuinely warm.

450

They made us feel welcome the whole trip.

451

I am using this new routine.

452

I'm creating this new pathway following the fluency panyan my new

453

routine the first routine again was Translate into my language then converted to English.

454

No, I'm not translating.

455

I'm using my new routine This fluency panyan with the rings

456

now ring number three is Personal experience plus the five W's who what when where and why what's the trigger?

457

What's the topic again?

458

Question, where did you travel to last year?

459

Ring 3 is personal experience plus the 5 W's who, what, when, where, why.

460

Answer, I traveled to Cabo last summer with two of my closest friends.

461

We spent most of the week near the water, swimming in the ocean, walking through the little shops in town at night.

462

We went because one of us had just finished a hard year at work and needed to get away.

463

It ended up being the calmest I'd felt in a long time.

464

What did we just do?

465

We have these packages now.

466

If anyone ever asks me about my trip or what I did last year, I've already organized the information.

467

I have organized information in my language.

468

That's that first road.

469

But I'm trying to create this new routine.

470

So I'm practicing using the fluency panion to create this new road.

471

I'm going down it.

472

Ring one details, ring two opinion, plus three reasons, ring three personal experience,

473

plus the five W's I'm making this pathway going down this way, making this new road, using this new routine, the fluency panion.

474

You make sense, right?

475

Let's say there's a different topic.

476

Can we still use the same path?

477

This path is topic details, opinion, plus reasons, then experience plus five W.

478

So let's say the topic changes the trigger.

479

What do you do for work?

480

That's the trigger.

481

Can I use the same pathway?

482

Ring one, three details.

483

Ah, I work at a logistics company.

484

I handle the scheduling side.

485

So I'm mostly dealing with delivery windows and driver routes.

486

It's a mid -sized company around 200 people.

487

I've been there about four years now.

488

Three details.

489

I'm going down this new pathway, making this new routine, had the trigger, but my routine is no longer to translate.

490

My routine is to follow the fluency opinion.

491

Ring number one.

492

Now ring number two, opinion plus three reasons.

493

The trigger, what do you do for work?

494

Ring two, opinion plus three reasons.

495

I work in logistics and I actually really like it, which surprises people.

496

The problems change every day.

497

So I'm never bored.

498

I can see the results of my work immediately.

499

Either the shipment lands on time or it doesn't.

500

And my team is small enough that everyone knows what everyone else is dealing with.

501

Now ring number three, we're going down this pathway.

502

We are building a strong pathway.

503

Now personal experience plus the five W's who, what, when, where, and why.

504

What's the trigger question again?

505

What do you do for work?

506

Now ring three.

507

I ended up in logistics almost by accident.

508

Four years ago, a friend told me her company was short -staffed and asked if I'd cover for a few months.

509

I took it because I needed the work and I figured I'd leave by the summer.

510

Then one week we lost half our drivers to a storm and I spent three days rebuilding every route from scratch.

511

That's the week I realized I was good at it.

512

I never left.

513

We're building a new routine following the fluency panion.

514

Listen, I no longer have to translate.

515

I'm following this routine.

516

Topic or trigger ring one detail ring two.

517

Yes.

518

Excellent.

519

Opinion plus three reasons.

520

Ring three.

521

Yes, personal experience plus the five W's.

522

What about this topic?

523

What did you do this weekend?

524

Ring one, my routine, three details.

525

I stayed home mostly.

526

I finally cleaned out the closet I'd been ignoring since January.

527

I cooked instead of ordering food and slept in both mornings, which almost never happens.

528

Three details.

529

I'm going down this path again.

530

Now ring two opinion plus three reasons.

531

I had a quiet weekend and honestly, I think quiet weekends are underrated.

532

I get to catch up on things that have been sitting there for weeks.

533

I actually rest instead of coming back to Monday exhausted and I don't have to be on for anyone, which I need more than I like to admit.

534

We are making this new path, this new routine following the fluency panion.

535

Ring one, three details.

536

Ring two, opinion plus three reasons.

537

Ring three, personal experience plus the five W's.

538

What's the trigger again?

539

What did you do this weekend?

540

Now ring three, personal experience plus the five W's.

541

Who, what, when, where, why?

542

On Saturday, my sister called and asked if she could come over.

543

So she and her daughter showed up around noon.

544

We didn't do anything special.

545

We made lunch, sat on the floor, and my niece made us watch the same cartoon three times.

546

She stayed until it got dark.

547

I've been planning to spend the whole weekend alone and it turned out to be the best part of it.

548

Same topic.

549

Three complete answers.

550

Three separate roads.

551

Why?

552

Three details.

553

Yes.

554

Excellent.

555

Come on now.

556

Opinion plus three reasons.

557

Or you can do personal experience plus the five W's.

558

We have these three roads to go down.

559

Again, helping you think in English.

560

Now why three and not one?

561

Why do we have this fluency painting that gives us three options?

562

You see one answer is a script, but three answers form into a habit.

563

I kept saying we're going down this new road, but this new road has three different paths.

564

It's actually three roads.

565

One answer is simply a script.

566

If you practice a topic one way.

567

You've memorized a sentence when the conversation shifts, when someone asks why instead of what the sentence doesn't fit

568

and you fall back to your language to build a new one.

569

Three ways means the topic has three exits.

570

Whatever direction the conversation goes, one of these three will fit.

571

More importantly,

572

your brain stops storing the answer and start storing the topic as a whole with three ways out of it already attached.

573

You see, my friend, it teaches the brain to search in English.

574

The old habit is a search.

575

The moment a topic appears, your brain asks, where do I find an organized version of this?

576

It looks in the place where organized answers live.

577

So every time you build three answers in English, as you practice, you're moving inventory from the old road to the three new roads.

578

You're putting everything, you're putting everything in English.

579

You're organizing things in English where the search can be found.

580

Hey, I'm going to search in this area.

581

Now, eventually the search stops leaving the language because it doesn't have to.

582

Instead of it leaving English, it now knows, Hey, I have three options, three roads I can go down.

583

Now this breaks the dependence and it helps you start to give complete answers in English.

584

Your mother tongue is attractive because it gives you the whole answer before you speak, you have organized answers.

585

They're ready for you.

586

Three rings do the same job, but each ring is small enough that you can start speaking before you know how it ends.

587

Ah, I know the first ring, three details.

588

I know the second ring.

589

Okay.

590

I can give my personal opinion and three reasons.

591

Ah, the third ring, I can give my personal experience and five W's.

592

Ring one needs three facts.

593

Ring two needs one opinion.

594

Ring three needs one memory.

595

None of them require you to have the finished paragraph in your head first.

596

This is why this new routine will work for you.

597

So what does this look like in a real conversation?

598

Someone asks about your travel.

599

You don't build the answer in your old way, following the old routine, going to your mother tongue.

600

You now reach for the answer.

601

If you want facts, if you want to give them facts, ring one is already there.

602

If they want your take your opinion, your thoughts ring two is already there.

603

If they want a story ring three, your personal experience is already there.

604

You're not translating faster.

605

You're not translating at all because the answer was already in English before the question arrived.

606

Ring one, ring two, ring three, ring three, my friend, that's the whole mechanism.

607

The practice happens in advance, mastering each of these rings.

608

The conversation just collects it.

609

Stop thinking in your language, stop translating and finally create your new road using your three rings.

¿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.
