Let's start the story.
19
My name is John.
20
I am 25 years old.
21
I live in a small town.
22
I have a big dream.
23
I want to speak English fluently.
24
But there is one problem.
25
My English is very weak.
26
I cannot speak English well, I always say to myself.
27
When I try to speak, I feel nervous.
28
My hands shake.
29
My voice becomes low.
30
I forget simple words.
31
People laugh at me.
32
They say, your English is so bad.
33
This makes me very sad.
34
Every day, I wake up early.
35
I tell myself, today is a new day.
36
I will try again.
37
I watch English videos.
38
I read English books.
39
I write English sentences. But nothing works.
40
Why is this so hard?
41
I ask myself.
42
One day, my friend Ali comes to my house.
43
He speaks English very well.
44
I ask him, how do you speak so well?
45
He smiles and says, can I tell you a secret?
46
Yes, please tell me, I say.
47
Ollie sits next to me.
48
He says, John, you are making one big mistake.
49
What mistake?
50
I ask.
51
You only watch videos.
52
You never practice.
53
You never speak.
54
I think about this.
55
He is right.
56
I only listen.
57
I never speak.
58
Ollie continues, English is like swimming.
59
You cannot learn swimming by watching videos.
60
You have to jump in the water.
61
So what should I do?
62
I ask.
63
Ali gives me a simple plan.
64
Ali says, follow these five steps every day.
65
Step 1.
66
Learn 5 new sentences daily.
67
Not words.
68
Sentences.
69
Because we speak in sentences.
70
Step 2.
71
Repeat each sentence 10 times.
72
Say it loudly.
73
Say it clearly.
74
Step 3.
75
Use these sentences in real life.
76
Talk to yourself.
77
Talk to friends.
78
Talk to family.
79
Step 4.
80
Don't be afraid of mistakes.
81
Mistakes are your teachers.
82
They help you learn.
83
Step 5, Be consistent.
84
Practice every single day.
85
Even for 10 minutes.
86
That's it, I ask.
87
That's it, Ali says.
88
Simple things done daily create big results.
89
The next morning, I wake up with hope.
90
I can do this, I say to myself.
91
I start with simple sentences.
92
Good morning.
93
How are you?
94
I am fine, thank you.
95
What is your name?
96
Nice to meet you.
97
How can I help you?
98
I repeat each sentence ten times.
99
Then I practice more sentences.
100
I would like some water, please. Can you help me?

I don't understand.

Can you repeat?
103
Thank you so much. Have a nice day.

I say, thank you.
115
Have a good day.
116
I feel so happy.
117
I am speaking English in real life.
118
But learning is not always easy.
119
Sometimes I face problems.
120
One day, I try to speak to a stranger.
121
But I forget my words.
122
My mind goes blank.
123
I I.
124
I want to.
125
I cannot finish my sentence.
126
The person walks away.
127
I feel bad.
128
I want to give up.
129
Maybe I cannot do this.
130
I think.
131
That night, I call Ollie.
132
I made a mistake today.
133
I forgot everything, I say.
134
Ollie laughs gently.
135
He says, John, this is normal.
136
Everyone makes mistakes.
137
The important thing is, did you try?
138
Yes, I tried, I say.

Then you did not fail.

You learned.
141
Try again tomorrow.

Can you help me with this?
152
I really appreciate your help.
153
I talk to myself in the mirror.
154
I feel silly at first.
155
But it works.
156
I also start thinking in English.
157
Not in my native language.
158
This is very helpful.
159
30 days pass.
160
Something amazing happens.
161
I meet an English tourist on the street.
162
He asks me.
163
Excuse me, can you help me?

I smile. Of course.
167
I can help you, I say confidently.
168
Go straight on this road.
169
Then turn left.
170
The station is on your right side.

The tourist smiles.

I am not afraid anymore.
186
I make mistakes sometimes. But I don't care.
187
I learn from them.
188
Today, I want to share my story with you.
189
I want to tell you something important.
190
You can improve your English.
191
It doesn't matter where you are from.
192
It doesn't matter how weak your English is right now.

What matters is.
195
You start today.
196
You practice daily.
197
You never give up.
198
And that is the end of John's story.

This is actually the beginning of your story.
201
You are just like John.
202
Today, you watched this video.

This is the mission of Ingley Vate.
220
We are here to help you.
221
We will upload more stories, more lessons, more practice videos, but we need your support.

Why practice speaking with this video?

Practicing speaking with this video is essential for anyone looking to enhance their English skills. The speaker, John, shares a relatable narrative that emphasizes the significance of consistent practice. By engaging in the shadowing technique—where you repeat what you hear just after the speaker—you can improve your fluency and confidence. This interactive method allows learners to absorb the rhythm and intonation of natural speech, helping them overcome initial doubts about their speaking ability.

When you repeat after the speaker, you not only build muscle memory for pronunciation but also reinforce sentence structures and vocabulary. Make it a habit to watch the video multiple times. Each time, focus on your pronunciation and aim to sound as close to the original speaker as possible. This approach will greatly improve your English pronunciation and make your speaking more authentic.

Grammar & Expressions in Context

The speaker uses several practical sentence structures that are essential for effective communication. Here are a few key examples:

  • Simple Present Tense: John uses sentences like, "I live in a small town," to describe his routines and ongoing situations. This tense is fundamental for beginners to convey facts and habits.
  • Expressions of Desire: Phrases such as, "I want to speak English fluently," show how to articulate goals. This structure is vital when discussing aspirations and encourages learners to express their own ambitions.
  • Common Questions: John's inquiries, like "How do you speak so well?" demonstrate how to form direct questions, an important skill for engaging in conversations.

By practicing these structures through shadow speech, you can make them part of your active vocabulary and improve your ability to hold conversations.

Common Pronunciation Traps

As you practice with this video, be aware of some common pronunciation traps that learners might encounter. For instance:

  • Words with 'th' sounds: Words like "the," “this,” and "that" can be challenging. Practice these sounds by elongating and emphasizing them during shadowing exercises.
  • Contractions: The speaker uses contractions like "I'm" and "he's." Ensure you familiarize yourself with these to sound more natural in conversation.
  • Intonation Patterns: Notice how the speaker varies their voice pitch when asking questions versus making statements. Mimicking these intonation patterns will help you sound more fluent.

Utilizing a shadowing app can provide instant feedback, allowing you to pinpoint pronunciation discrepancies. Regular practice with shadow speech will enable you to overcome these challenges and advance your speaking capability effectively.

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.
