Today I'm going to show you a simple technique
2
that can dramatically improve your fluency and it just takes five minutes a day.
3
Hello my friends it's Keith from the Keith Speaking Academy
4
and here today to help you become a more fluent speaker of English.
5
Now this one technique I mentioned is called the chunking method.
6
Now you've probably heard of this.
7
I've talked about it a little bit before,
8
but I want to make it crystal clear,
9
super easy for you today so that you can start practicing this straight away today
10
and get into that habit of five minutes a day practicing this chunking.
11
Sound good?
12
Great.
13
So in this video, I'm going to show you how this works,
14
how you can practice, and then we'll finish up with a little story to review this.
15
Let's do it.
16
Now then, one of the reasons you're not fluent yet is probably
17
because you focus on individual words and this is quite normal for students to do.
18
The thing is proficient speakers and native speakers we don't focus on individual words we We focus on chunks,
19
two or three words together.
20
And we speak with chunks and we think in chunks.
21
If you focus on individual words, it slows you down.
22
And it's because normally you've learned through writing and reading English.
23
And so you're focusing on the written word that you see is individual words.
24
But when we speak, we don't think in words.
25
We think in sounds.
26
and we speak with sounds.
27
So each chunk is a sound rather than an individual word, right?
28
When I say, when I say,
29
I don't say when I say,
30
I say when I say, when I say.
31
It sounds almost Japanese, when I say,
32
when I say, but I think in sounds.
33
And so it's much easier to speak with more flow and more fluently.
34
It's a bit like when you go shopping and you take banana And if you take an individual banana,
35
put it in your bag and another,
36
boom, and another, it's quite slow.
37
If you take a bunch of bananas, it's much quicker.
38
And it's the same with chunks.
39
It's a bunch of words put into one sound.
40
That's the secret.
41
Now, there are different kinds of chunks.
42
There are grammatical chunks and there are lexical chunks.
43
Let me give you a few examples today.
44
Grammatical chunks, we've got verb chunks like, I tend to.
45
I'm used to, I find it easy to, I'd like to.
46
Adverbial chunks, I'm sure you know.
47
At the moment, at the moment,
48
by and large, at the end of the day.
49
And when we say these,
50
we just say them as one sound, one chunk, right?
51
By and large, by and large, by and large.
52
Meaning, generally speaking, by and large.
53
Okay, so verb chunks, adverbial chunks.
54
So these chunks are our building blocks.
55
And as we put them together,
56
we build and speak with more flow and more fluency.
57
And the more you use them,
58
and the more you think in this way,
59
the more fluent you're gonna become.
60
Let's move on.
61
Great.
62
Let's have a look at this five minute a day fluency drill.
63
So we're going to look at three chunks,
64
three verb chunks that we can practice with.
65
And then later we'll add some adverb chunks.
66
So the verb chunk is what you do.
67
The adverb chunk is how you do it.
68
And then we'll start building with blocks.
69
So the first chunk we've got is over here.
70
I tend to do something.
71
meaning I usually do something it's a habit, right?
72
I tend to so instead of saying I tend to we say I tend to that means repeat I tend to
73
wake up early wake up early another chunk wake up early good together I tend to wake up early Got it.
74
Hear the difference between I tend to wake up early and I tend to wake up early.
75
Totally different.
76
Building blocks rather than individual words.
77
Let's try another one.
78
I tend to have a big breakfast.
79
Great.
80
That's true for me.
81
Tell me something true for you.
82
Really?
83
Another one.
84
I tend to drink tea.
85
Okay.
86
I tend to drink tea.
87
Great. And you?
88
Three chunks now.
89
I tend to get nervous before meetings.
90
Right.
91
You've got it.
92
Okay.
93
So what we can do,
94
we're just kind of repeating these little chunks.
95
Let's move on to chunk number two,
96
which is I am used to doing something.
97
So instead of I am used to, it's I'm used to.
98
I'm used to.
99
That's it.
100
Getting up early.
101
That's another chunk.
102
Getting up early.
103
I'm used to getting up early.
104
I'm used to working on my own Three chunks, right?
105
I'm used to working on my own I'm used to working on my own I'm used to living in the countryside
106
Okay, again, three chunks I'm used to living in the countryside We put them all together with a bit of intonation.
107
I'm used to living in the countryside.
108
It's almost one chunk, right?
109
The more you do it,
110
the better you get at it.
111
Chunk number three.
112
I find it easy to do something.
113
For example, for me, I find it easy to cook.
114
Okay, the difference again between I find it easy to cook,
115
I find it easy to cook.
116
Practice that little chunk.
117
I find it easy.
118
I find it easy.
119
Yeah.
120
I find it easy to learn languages.
121
I find it easy to stay organised. And you?
122
Excellent.
123
Good.
124
Now, let's start combining a bit.
125
Let's start adding some adverb chunks.
126
Do you remember like, at the moment?
127
Okay.
128
So, I might say, at the moment,
129
I tend to wake up early.
130
Kind of three chunks, right?
131
At the moment, I tend to wake up early.
132
I'm slowing it down a bit so you can hear the chunks.
133
Obviously, as you put them together,
134
I would say at the moment,
135
I tend to wake up early.
136
I have the intonation, but that comes later.
137
Just focus on the chunks first.
138
Another one.
139
Right now, I'm used to living on my own.
140
Okay, we've got this adverbial chunk and the verb chunk.
141
Another one.
142
By and large, I find it easy to stay organized.
143
Stay organized or stay focused?
144
Stay organized, yes.
145
By and large, I find it easy to stay organized.
146
And what I could start to do is extend the sentence by having a because or since or as.
147
At the moment, I tend to wake up early because I'm on holiday.
148
No, that wouldn't make sense, would it?
149
At the moment, I tend to wake up early because I'm very busy. That would make sense.
150
But it doesn't matter if it makes sense.
151
Actually, it's good not even to make sense.
152
Say something illogical, but focus on these chunks.
153
And you're building up your sentences, right?
154
The idea is not to make sense.
155
The idea of this practice,
156
the five-minute fluency drill, is just to practice fluency, practice these chunks.
157
Okay, we can do it with a mini story.
158
Let me develop these into a mini story
159
and I want you to really focus on the sounds of the chunks as I speak.
160
Okay, whether it's logical or not.
161
Here we go.
162
At the moment, I tend to wake up early.
163
By and large, I find it easy to wake up early because I go to bed early.
164
Right now, I'm used to going to bed early because I'm on holiday.
165
Right?
166
Mini story, but I'm just building blocks, building little sentences.
167
And in your practice, do this.
168
Make up stupid stories that make no sense,
169
but just practice the chunks, right?
170
Later, it will all start to work out.
171
But this is the drill.
172
This is where you're kind of,
173
like the soldiers, learn to walk and to drill.
174
It's the basic footsteps.
175
These are the footsteps of your language, if you like.
176
Okay.
177
So let me just recap,
178
summarize this five-minute fluency drill.
179
Very simple routine.
180
First of all, pick three verb chunks.
181
You can use the ones we've done today.
182
I do have a PDF and you can download that and get lots more chunks you can practice with.
183
First, pick three verb chunks,
184
practice repeating and changing something.
185
Take some adverb chunks, practice repeating,
186
put them together, building up little phrases,
187
and then make a mini story.
188
sentence after sentence using these chunks or others building them up it can be totally illogical
189
and then if you've got time do a mini story
190
but that's true for you and that's more difficult
191
because you have to think about meaning as well but
192
if you've got time record yourself great to listen back
193
and listen to the sounds and the chunks see how well you're doing you can do this five minutes a day.
194
Seriously, three chunks, some adverb chunks.
195
It's so easy.
196
Practice first of all with the ones you've seen today.
197
Go and get the PDF.
198
There's loads more there you can start practicing.
199
And just with this focus on sounds and chunks rather than individual words,
200
you will notice a difference after a few weeks.
201
That's it for today.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
