Listen, learn and improve your English effortlessly.

Hello, my dear English learners.
4
Welcome to this new series on learning English step-by-step.
5
This is day one and we're going to start with easy English listening and speaking practice to build your confidence.
6
This is Tara and I am so happy you're here with me today.
7
And before we begin, I want to say something gently and honestly.
8
If learning English has ever felt difficult for you, you are not alone.
9
Many learners feel this way.
10
Sometimes you understand English, but when it's time to speak,
11
the words don't come.
12
Sometimes you know what you want to say.
13
But your mind goes blank and sometimes you feel like you're trying but not improving fast enough.
14
If you've ever felt that, I understand.
15
But here's the truth I want you to remember.
16
English learning is not as hard as it feels.
17
What makes it feel difficult is not the language itself.
18
It's the way we try to learn it.
19
Many people try to do too much at once.
20
They watch many videos.
21
They try to learn too many words.
22
They expect quick results.
23
And then they feel overwhelmed.
24
So today, I want you to take a step back and keep things simple.
25
You don't need hours of practice.
26
You don't need perfect grammar.
27
You don't need to rush.
28
You just need a few minutes of focused practice every day.
29
Even 10 minutes a day can create real change.
30
And here's why.
31
Your brain learns through repetition and consistency.
32
When you practice a little every day,
33
your brain becomes familiar with the sounds,
34
the rhythm and the structure of English.
35
But when you practice once in a while,
36
it's hard to build that habit.
37
That's why 10 minutes daily is much more powerful than one hour once a week.
38
So in this series, we are going to keep things slow, simple and consistent.
39
No pressure, no rush.
40
Just clear English listening and speaking practice that you can follow easily.
41
And I will be right here with you, step by step.
42
All right, awesome!
43
So here's how today's practice will work.
44
We will divide this into two parts.
45
Part 1 – Listening practice – 5 minutes.
46
You will carefully listen to short sentences.
47
Watch the highlighted words on the screen.
48
I will speak slowly so you can follow along.
49
Just listen.
50
Let your ears get used to the sounds of English.
51
If you need more time you can pause.
52
There is no rush.
53
Part two will be your English speaking practice.
54
We will do this for five minutes.
55
Here you will first listen to me and then you will repeat the sentences with me.
56
This is where real progress happens because listening helps you understand,
57
but speaking trains your speaking muscles.
58
Yes, you need to speak, my friend.
59
Speak with me.
60
And there is no need to feel shy.
61
I am here to support you in your English learning journey.
62
All right.
63
Amazing.
64
Now let's begin with the first part of your English learning step by step.
65
Get comfortable, grab your headphones,
66
relax and listen to my voice.
67
Ready?
68
Let's begin.
69
Part 1 English Listening Practice Sometimes English feels difficult.
70
I understand a lot of English.
71
But when it's time to speak, I can't speak well.
72
I feel nervous when I try to speak.
73
My heart beats faster and I start thinking too much.
74
I am afraid of making mistakes.
75
I worry that people will judge me.
76
Sometimes I stop myself before I even begin.
77
And sometimes my mind goes completely blank.
78
I know what I want to say,
79
but I don't know how to say it.
80
The words are right there,
81
but they just don't come out.
82
So I start translating in my head,
83
sometimes word by word and sometimes sentence by sentence,
84
and that takes so much time.
85
I notice by the time I'm ready to speak,
86
the moment is already gone.
87
I feel so slow when I speak English,
88
and I lose my confidence.
89
Sometimes I use very simple words because I'm afraid of saying something wrong,
90
and then, sometimes I avoid conversations completely.
91
I just listen and stay quiet.
92
And later I think.
93
I could have said something.
94
I feel a little frustrated.
95
I feel like I am not improving fast enough,
96
even after watching many English videos.
97
I still struggle to speak.
98
I understand, but I can't express myself easily.
99
And that makes me feel stuck.
100
But at the same time,
101
I know I want to improve.
102
I want to speak more confidently.
103
I want to express my thoughts clearly.
104
I want to feel comfortable when I speak English.
105
And slowly I am beginning to understand something.
106
This is part of the process.
107
I am not alone.
108
Many learners feel the same way.
109
And I can improve, step by step, with daily practice.
110
Even a few minutes every day can help me.
111
So I will keep going.
112
I will keep practising and slowly I will become more confident in speaking English.
113
Alright, so how was that for you?
114
Did you enjoy the English listening part?
115
I was speaking slowly on purpose so you can start getting used to the sound of English,
116
the rhythm, the way sentences flow.
117
And remember, you can always pause the video and listen again.
118
Take your time with it.
119
There's no rush.
120
Now, one more thing I want to say here.
121
I speak in a British accent,
122
but please don't worry too much about the accent,
123
because all accents are beautiful,
124
whether it's British, American, Australian or Indian.
125
The goal is the same,
126
to understand clearly and to speak with confidence.
127
That's what really matters.
128
Alright, so now let's move to the next part.
129
Let's begin your English-speaking practice.
130
First, listen, then repeat after me.
131
We will practice 30 sentences today.
132
And we will repeat each sentence three times.
133
Don't worry, I am right here with you.
134

About This Lesson

Welcome to Day 1 of your English learning journey! In this lesson, you will focus on enhancing your English listening and speaking skills through a simple yet effective practice known as shadowing. This technique involves closely following and mimicking a speaker, allowing you to improve English pronunciation and become more comfortable with the rhythm and sounds of the language. By dedicating just a few minutes each day to shadow speech, you’ll build your confidence and gradually see improvements in your communication abilities in English.

Key Vocabulary & Phrases

  • Effortlessly: With great ease or without difficulty.
  • Blank: A mental state where you cannot think of what to say.
  • Repetition: The act of doing or saying something again, crucial for solidifying language skills.
  • Consistency: The quality of always behaving or performing in a similar way, essential for effective learning.
  • Practice: Regular engagement in an activity to improve skill.
  • Focused practice: Concentrated effort on a specific area of learning for effective results.
  • Short sentences: Simple structures that make listening and speaking more manageable for learners.

Practice Tips

To make the most out of this lesson, here are some practical tips for effective shadowing:

  • Listen Carefully: When you begin, pay close attention to the pronunciation and intonation of the speaker. This will help you mimic sounds more accurately.
  • Start Slow: The speaker will use a slower pace, allowing you to catch each word. Don't rush; take your time to understand the flow of the language.
  • Repeat Frequently: Go over the material several times. Repetition is key in the shadowing technique, helping to reinforce your learning.
  • Record Yourself: Consider recording your attempts. This allows you to hear your own progress and make adjustments to your pronunciation based on playback.
  • Practice Daily: Even just 10 minutes a day can lead to significant improvement. Consistency in practice is more effective than infrequent, long sessions.

With these strategies, you'll be well-equipped to learn English with YouTube effectively. Embrace the journey and take each day step by step!

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.
