Hello dear English learners.
0:12.90 – 0:14.42 (1.5s)
4
Welcome to today's episode of your English listening and speaking practice.
0:14.42 – 0:19.72 (5.3s)
5
And today we're doing something special.
0:19.72 – 0:23.04 (3.3s)
6
It's your shadowing practice challenge.
0:23.04 – 0:26.26 (3.2s)
7
A chance to speak out loud, build confidence and improve your English with me, step by step.
0:26.64 – 0:33.88 (7.2s)
8
So how was your day?
0:34.84 – 0:36.10 (1.3s)
9
Did anything make you smile?
0:36.10 – 0:38.10 (2.0s)
10
Did you learn something new in the last episode?
0:38.10 – 0:40.86 (2.8s)
11
If you did, amazing!
0:41.72 – 0:44.14 (2.4s)
12
I'm proud of you.
0:44.14 – 0:45.64 (1.5s)
13
If not, don't worry, you're here now and that's what matters.
0:45.64 – 0:50.28 (4.6s)
14
Now let's be honest for a moment.
0:51.02 – 0:52.82 (1.8s)
15
Just listening to English is not enough.
0:52.82 – 0:55.44 (2.6s)
16
If you want to speak better English, then you must speak, speak, speak, speak.
0:55.44 – 1:02.82 (7.4s)
17
But how do you start?
1:02.82 – 1:05.06 (2.2s)
18
Sometimes it feels scary or confusing or you're just not sure what to say.
1:05.06 – 1:12.28 (7.2s)
19
That's where shadowing comes in.
1:12.28 – 1:14.78 (2.5s)
20
Shadowing means you listen, you repeat, you copy how I speak, the sounds, the rhythm, the music of the sentence.
1:14.78 – 1:25.34 (10.6s)
21
It's not about being perfect.
1:25.34 – 1:27.68 (2.3s)
22
It's about getting used to the feeling of speaking English with your voice, your mouth, your breath.
1:27.68 – 1:34.34 (6.7s)
23
Even if you speak slowly, that's okay.
1:34.34 – 1:38.34 (4.0s)
24
Even if you make mistakes, that's even better.
1:38.96 – 1:41.78 (2.8s)
25
Mistakes mean you're learning.
1:41.78 – 1:44.30 (2.5s)
26
Remember this.
1:44.52 – 1:45.38 (0.9s)
27
It's not how much you study, it's how often.
1:45.38 – 1:49.18 (3.8s)
28
Five minutes a day is better than one hour once a week.
1:49.18 – 1:53.34 (4.2s)
29
So if you're here with me now, you're already winning.
1:53.34 – 1:57.26 (3.9s)
30
Today we will practice 30 simple sentences.
1:57.26 – 2:01.04 (3.8s)
31
You will hear me say them slowly, clearly, in a British accent.
2:01.04 – 2:06.64 (5.6s)
32
There will be a pause.
2:06.64 – 2:08.70 (2.1s)
33
And that's your time to repeat after me.
2:08.70 – 2:12.06 (3.4s)
34
Just follow the subtitles on the screen, watch for the highlighted words, they'll guide you, and speak out loud, yes, even if it feels strange at first.
2:12.06 – 2:24.42 (12.4s)
35
This practice is perfect for the early stages of your English journey.
2:25.36 – 2:29.86 (4.5s)
36
Don't try to do too much.
2:31.08 – 2:32.84 (1.8s)
37
Don't overwhelm your mind.
2:32.84 – 2:35.32 (2.5s)
38
Start small, but be consistent.
2:35.32 – 2:38.98 (3.7s)
39
So are you ready?
2:39.30 – 2:40.92 (1.6s)
40
Let's warm up those English muscles and speak together.
2:40.92 – 2:46.44 (5.5s)
41
Let's begin your shadowing challenge.
2:46.44 – 2:49.62 (3.2s)
42
Welcome again to this shadowing English speaking practice.
2:49.62 – 2:53.20 (3.6s)
43
My name is Tara and I absolutely love teaching English.
2:53.20 – 2:58.08 (4.9s)
44
Now, You might be wondering, why shadowing?
2:58.08 – 3:02.78 (4.7s)
45
And why in British English?
3:02.78 – 3:05.18 (2.4s)
46
Great questions.
3:05.18 – 3:06.74 (1.6s)
47
Let's talk about it.
3:06.74 – 3:08.48 (1.7s)
48
Shadowing is one of the best ways to improve your speaking, listening and pronunciation, all at the same time.
3:09.84 – 3:17.18 (7.3s)
49
When you shadow, you don't just listen to English, you copy it.
3:18.26 – 3:22.50 (4.2s)
50
You hear the words and then you say them, just like an echo.
3:22.50 – 3:27.82 (5.3s)
51
It helps your mouth get used to English sounds.
3:29.02 – 3:31.66 (2.6s)
52
It helps your brain get used to English sentence patterns.
3:31.66 – 3:35.52 (3.9s)
53
And slowly with time, you begin to sound more natural, more confident and more fluent.
3:35.52 – 3:43.42 (7.9s)
54
And as for the British English part, well, that's just my accent.
3:43.42 – 3:49.44 (6.0s)
55
It's clear, soft and easy to follow.
3:49.44 – 3:52.94 (3.5s)
56
But remember, whether it's British, American or Australian English, the goal is the same – to help you understand and speak confidently.
3:52.94 – 4:03.44 (10.5s)
57
So don't worry about the accent too much.
4:03.68 – 4:06.72 (3.0s)
58
Focus on the rhythm, the stress, the music of the sentence, listen carefully, then speak clearly.
4:06.72 – 4:13.86 (7.1s)
59
With me.
4:13.86 – 4:15.66 (1.8s)
60
And don't worry if it's not perfect.
4:15.66 – 4:18.18 (2.5s)

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.

Comment pratiquer efficacement sur ShadowingEnglish

  1. Choisissez votre vidéo : Choisissez une vidéo YouTube avec un anglais clair et naturel. Les TED Talks, BBC News, scènes de films, podcasts sont parfaits. Collez l'URL dans la barre de recherche.
  2. Écoutez d'abord, comprenez le contexte : La première fois, gardez la vitesse à 1x et écoutez simplement. Ne répétez pas encore. Concentrez-vous sur la compréhension du sens.
  3. Configurez le mode Shadowing :
    • Mode d'attente : Choisissez +3s ou +5s — après chaque phrase, la vidéo se met automatiquement en pause pour que vous puissiez répéter.
    • Sync sous-titres : Les sous-titres YouTube peuvent parfois être décalés. Utilisez ±100ms pour les aligner.
  4. Faites du Shadowing à voix haute (la pratique essentielle) : Dès qu'une phrase est jouée — ou pendant la pause — répétez-la à voix haute, clairement et avec confiance. Imitez le rythme, les accents et l'intonation du locuteur.
  5. Augmentez le défi : Une fois à l'aise avec un passage, augmentez la vitesse à <code>1.25x</code> ou <code>1.5x</code>. Pratiquez 15 à 30 minutes par jour pour des résultats visibles en quelques semaines.
