1
They say that shadowing improves your English accent.
2
But how?
3
If you want clearer pronunciation and a more natural accent,
4
then today I'm going to show you how to shadow in a way that no one else is teaching.
5
And since I'm at my lovely home,
6
come inside with me and let's shadow.
7
Shadowing is when you listen to someone speaking and you repeat what they say as closely as possible.
8
This is one of the best and quickest ways to improve your English speaking.
9
So as you first watch this video,
10
I'm gonna show you vocabulary around my house and I want you to first listen.
11
Pay attention to my pronunciation,
12
my tone of voice, and even my body language.
13
Then I'm going to repeat a second time
14
and I'll show you a close-up shot of my mouth so that you can see the shape of my mouth,
15
the shape of my jaw,
16
my lips, my tongue, to make shadowing as easy as possible for you.
17
Ready?
18
Let's go.
19
This is a bookshelf.
20
It's made up of many shelves.
21
There are books on the shelves.
22
I brought these books from my hometown York back in England.
23
Now let's shadow what I just said.
24
This is a bookshelf.
25
It's made up of many shelves.
26
There are books on the shelves.
27
I brought these books from my hometown York.
28
Back in England.
29
Good.
30
Remember to pay attention to shelf and shelves.
31
Again, shelf and shelves.
32
Good.
33
This is a rug.
34
I'm sitting on the rug and holding a mug.
35
We bought this rug and this mug about five months ago
36
when we moved in to our new home and they add a a pop of colour to the house.
37
They make it feel more creative.
38
We bought this rug and this mug about five months ago when we moved into our home.
39
They add a pop of colour to the house.
40
And they make it feel more creative.
41
Guys, remember to pay attention to rug and mug.
42
Can you say them fast?
43
A bug on a rug found a mug on a rug,
44
and the bug and the mug on the rug had a hug.
45
If you can say that, you're a legend.
46
That is the ceiling.
47
Our ceiling is quite high.
48
Actually, I like that about our house.
49
It makes it feel spacious.
50
Up here you can see a glass roof,
51
and we call that a roof light.
52
The roof light lets in the sunlight,
53
which keeps our plants happy.
54
Do you know what else keeps our plants happy?
55
A good drink.
56
I love this.
57
This is our tap and it also serves as a plant waterer, a hose pipe.
58
It's raining inside.
59
That's enough water for you Mr. Cheeseplant.
60
Time to shadow.
61
That is the ceiling.
62
Our ceiling is quite high.
63
Actually, I like that about this house.
64
It makes it feel spacious.
65
Up here, you can see a glass roof.
66
And we call that a roof light.
67
It lets in the sunlight,
68
which keeps our plants happy.
69
Now, two words to pay attention to here.
70
Ceiling and roof.
71
Good.
72
Quick notes, a ceiling is on the inside of the house and a roof is on the outside of a house.
73
This is a kettle.
74
I just boiled the kettle.
75
This kettle has a black handle and it's made of glass, plastic and metal.
76
A very British way to say boil the kettle is to pop the kettle on.
77
I just popped the kettle on.
78
This is a kettle.
79

85
They drop the T.
86
So, I would say kettle.
87
Kettle.
88
Instead of kettle.
89
This is just for your listening.
90
I would encourage you to say kettle.
91
That's the proper way.
92
Another one to notice is it's made of becomes it's made of.
93
It's made of.

This mug, it's made of ceramic.
95
What are you doing in my microwave?
96

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.
