English Academy Plus Podcast.

Your daily dose of simple English.

Hello, everyone.

Welcome back.

I'm so happy you are here today.

Hi, hi, hi.

Welcome.

If you are watching this right now, you are already doing something amazing.

That's true.

You are learning English right now.

Today.

But let me ask you something.

And please, be honest.

Hmm.

Okay.

What is the question?

Do you ever know the words, but you cannot speak?

Oh, yes.

I think many people feel this way.

You study English.

You read English.

Maybe you even understand English when you listen.

But then someone says, hey, let's talk. And suddenly...

Your brain stops.

Everything disappears.

Yes.

The words are gone.

The sentences are gone.

Everything is just white, empty.

Like a blank page.

Exactly.

Like a blank page.

So today, we are going to talk about that, that feeling, and more importantly, how to fix it.

Today's topic is Stop Thinking, Start Talking.

Ooh, I like that.

Stop Thinking, Start Talking.

If you want to speak English more, this video is for you.

Stay with us.

We promise it will help.

And it will be fun.

We always have fun here.

Okay, Alice, let's start with the big question.

Why is it hard to speak English?

Mmm, good question.

I think people are afraid.

Afraid, yes, that is a big word.

Let's think about it.

What are people afraid of?

They are afraid of making mistakes.

Ah, mistakes, yes.

Very common.

Very, very common.

Like, what if I say the wrong word?

Or, what if my grammar is wrong?

Or, what if people laugh at me?

Yes, all of these fears, they stop people from speaking.

But David, is it really that bad to make a mistake?

No, absolutely not.

Making a mistake is totally normal.

Right?

Let me tell you something.

When a baby learns to walk, does the baby walk perfectly the first time?

No. The baby falls down.

Many times.

Many, many times.

But does the baby stop trying?

No. The baby gets up and tries again.

Exactly.

And that is how we all learn.

We try, we fall, we get up, we try again.

So speaking English is the same.

The same.

You try, you make a mistake.

You learn, you try again.

I love that.

That's so simple, but so true.

Now, there is another reason why people can't speak, and this one is very interesting.

Oh, tell me, tell me.

Some people think too much before they speak.

Oh, yes, I do this.

You do?

Yes, I think, okay, what is the right word?

What is the right grammar?

How do I say this correctly?

And then the moment is gone.

Yes, the conversation moved on and you said nothing.

It's so frustrating.

It is, but here's the thing.

In real conversation, you don't have time to think perfectly.

Right, people don't wait.

No, conversation is fast.

It moves.

You must respond.

So what do we do?

We talk about that very soon.

But first, let's talk about something many learners do.

What is that?

They wait.

They say, I will speak English when my English is perfect.

100

Oh, oh no. Why are you laughing?

101

Because that day never comes.

102

Exactly.

103

That day never comes.

104

You cannot wait for perfect.

105

Perfect does not come before practice.

106

Perfect comes from practice.

107

Wow.

108

Say that again, David.

109

That was good.

110

Perfect does not come before practice.

111

Perfect comes from practice.

112

I want to write that down.

113

Please do.

114

And listeners, you write it down too.

115

This is important.

116

Perfect does not come before practice.

117

Perfect comes from practice.

118

Yes, say it with us.

119

Perfect does not come before practice.

120

Perfect comes from practice.

121

Beautiful.

122

Now, let's keep going.

123

Okay, David, let's make this real.

124

Let's talk about a real situation.

125

Good idea.

126

Real situations help us learn better.

127

So, imagine this.

128

You walk into a coffee shop.

129

You want to order a coffee.

130

Simple, right?

131

Very simple.

132

But for many learners, it's not simple at all.

133

Why?

134

Because suddenly there's a real person, a real English speaker, and they are looking at you, waiting.

135

And your brain says, uh-oh.

136

Exactly.

137

Uh-oh.

138

So what happens?

139

Some people just point at the menu.

140

Oh no, don't do that.

141

Or they say nothing, or they say only this one and point.

142

That is so relatable.

143

I think every English learner has done this at least once.

144

At least once.

145

But we don't want to do that forever.

146

So, let's practice.

147

Let's pretend I am the person at the coffee shop.

148

I am the barista.

149

Okay, good.

150

Go ahead.

151

Hi, welcome.

152

What can I get for you today?

153

Hello.

154

Um, can I have a coffee, please? Of course.

155

What size?

156

Small, medium, or large?

157

Um, medium, please.

158

Any milk or sugar?

159

Yes, please.

160

A little milk.

161

No sugar.

162

Perfect.

163

Your name?

164

David.

165

Great!

166

That'll be ready in a few minutes.

167

See?

168

That was easy.

169

That was easy.

170

Very simple sentences.

171

Can I have a coffee, please?

172

Medium, please?

173

A little milk?

174

No sugar?

175

Short sentences.

176

Simple words.

177

But it works perfectly.

178

And the most important thing.

179

Did David make any mistakes?

180

Well, maybe a small pause, but no big mistakes.

181

And even if there were, it's fine.

182

Right.

183

The barista doesn't care about your grammar.

184

They just want your order.

185

Exactly.

186

The barista just wants to know, what do you want to drink?

187

So don't be afraid.

188

Just speak.

189

Just speak.

190

Simple words, short sentences.

191

It works.

192

Now, let's look at some key phrases from that conversation.

193

Yes, let's go slowly.

194

Number one.

195

Can I have, please?

196

Can I have a coffee, please?

197

Can I have a sandwich, please?

198

Can I have the menu, please?

199

Can I have?

200

This is so useful.

201

Use it everywhere.

202

Everywhere.

203

At a restaurant, at a shop, with a friend.

204

Can I have some water, please?

205

Number two.

206

A little.

207

A little milk, a little sugar, a little more time.

208

A little.

209

This phrase is very helpful.

210

When you want a small amount of something, a little.

211

A little.

212

Good.

213

And number three?

214

That's ready in a few minutes.

215

You don't need to say this exact phrase.

216

But listen, the barista said, a few minutes.

217

What does a few mean?

218

A few means not many, like two, three, four.

219

Yes.

220

A few is a small number.

221

Not one.

222

Not many.

223

Just a few.

224

A few minutes.

225

A few people.

226

A few questions.

227

Good.

228

Great phrases today.

229

Okay, David.

230

Now the big moment.

231

How do we stop overthinking?

232

How do we just talk?

233

Great question.

234

I have some tips, simple tips.

235

Are you ready? So ready.

236

Let's go.

237

Tip number one.

238

Use simple words, not perfect words.

239

Simple words.

240

Hmm.

241

Explain that more.

242

Okay.

243

Imagine you want to say, I am feeling a bit fatigued today.

244

Ooh, that's fancy.

245

Yes, but do you know what fatigued means?

246

It means tired.

247

Exactly.

248

So instead, just say, I am a little tired today.

249

Oh, same meaning, but easier.

250

Much easier and much faster to say.

251

When you speak, use the word you know.

252

Don't look for the perfect word.

253

Use the word you know.

254

I like that.

255

Simple is not bad.

256

Simple is smart.

257

Simple is smart, yes.

258

Tip number two.

259

Don't translate in your head.

260

Oh, this one is hard.

261

I know.

262

Many learners do this.

263

They think in their first language first.

264

Then they translate to English.

265

Then they speak.

266

And that takes so long.

267

Yes.

268

By the time you finish translating, the conversation moved on.

269

So what can we do?

270

Practice thinking in English.

271

Even a little.

272

Even just one sentence a day.

273

Like when you wake up in the morning, think, Today is Monday.

274

The weather is nice.

275

I want coffee.

276

Yes, exactly like that.

277

Small thoughts in English every day.

278

And slowly, your brain starts to think in English more naturally.

279

More naturally, yes.

280

It takes time, but it works.

281

OK, tip number three?

282

Tip number three.

283

It's OK to be slow.

284

Oh, I love this one.

285

In conversation, you can take a small pause.

286

You can say, um, or let me think, or how do I say this?

287

Native speakers do this too.

288

All the time.

289

Even native speakers say, um, uh, you know, like, they are not perfect either.

290

So we don't have to be perfect.

291

Never.

292

Perfect is the enemy of progress.

293

Ooh, say that again.

294

Perfect is the enemy of progress.

295

Wow, that's deep, David.

296

A little deep, but true.

297

Perfect is the enemy of progress.

298

Listeners, remember that one too.

299

And tip number four, the most important tip.

300

Oh, the most important?

301

Let's hear it.

302

Talk every day, even for five minutes, even if you talk to yourself.

303

Talk to yourself?

304

Yes, talk to yourself.

305

In the mirror, in the shower, when you walk, when you cook.

306

So you want people walking down the street talking to themselves?

307

Well, maybe not out loud on the street.

308

But yes, practice speaking out loud alone when you can.

309

Because the more you speak, the easier it gets.

310

Exactly.

311

Your mouth gets used to making English sounds.

312

Your brain gets faster.

313

Your confidence grows.

314

Confidence.

315

That's the key word, isn't it?

316

Yes.

317

Confidence.

318

When you are confident, speaking is easier.

319

And how do you get confidence?

320

Practice.

321

Practice.

322

Yes.

323

So it all comes back to just start.

324

Just speak.

325

Don't wait.

326

Don't wait.

327

Start today.

328

Start now.

329

Even with one sentence.

330

You know what, David?

331

346

You are the best listeners.

347

Okay, let's do another real conversation.

348

Something from daily life.

349

Yes, let's talk about talking about your day.

350

This is something we do every day.

351

Someone asks, how was your day?

352

And we answer.

353

Sounds simple, but many learners don't know what to say.

354

They say, good, and then stop.

355

Just good.

356

That's it.

357

Yes, just good.

358

But we can say so much more.

359

And it's not hard.

360

Okay, let's practice.

361

I'll ask you, David.

362

How was your day?

363

Oh, my day was pretty good, thank you.

364

I woke up early, I had breakfast, then I went for a short walk.

365

Oh, nice.

366

What did you eat for breakfast?

367

I had some eggs and toast and a big cup of coffee.

368

I really needed that coffee.

369

Don't we all?

370

And then what?

371

Then I worked for a few hours.

372

It was a bit busy, but I felt good.

373

That sounds like a nice day.

374

It was.

375

Pretty simple, but good.

376

Now, did you hear that?

377

Did you hear how I answered?

378

Yes.

379

You used short sentences, past tense, simple words.

380

Exactly.

381

I woke up.

382

I had breakfast.

383

I went for a walk.

384

I worked.

385

These are basic past tense sentences.

386

Very common, very useful.

387

Let's look at the key phrase, how was your day?

388

This is a very common question.

389

You will hear this every day.

390

Every single day, from friends, family, coworkers.

391

And the answer?

392

You can start with it was.

393

It was good.

394

It was busy.

395

It was a long day.

396

It was great.

397

It was.

398

Easy.

399

Then add one or two small details.

400

It was good.

401

I went to the market.

402

It was very crowded.

403

Crowded means many people.

404

Yes, crowded.

405

A useful word.

406

Or you can say, it was a long day.

407

I was very tired.

408

Perfect.

409

Short, simple, real.

410

Let me try.

411

David, how was your day today?

412

It was really nice, actually.

413

I talked to Alice.

414

Aw, that's so sweet.

415

And we recorded a podcast.

416

So it was a productive day.

417

Productive.

418

What does productive mean?

419

Productive means you did a lot of useful things.

420

You were busy in a good way.

421

Oh, productive.

422

I like that word.

423

Today was a productive day.

424

Today was a productive day.

425

Say it with us.

426

Today was a productive day.

427

Today was a productive day.

428

Good.

429

Now let's practice more phrases you can use when talking about your day.

430

Yes, give us the phrases.

431

Okay.

432

Number one.

433

I had a busy day.

434

I had a busy day, meaning many things happened.

435

You did a lot.

436

Number two.

437

I was really tired.

438

I was really tired.

439

Simple.

440

Everyone knows this feeling.

441

Number three, I went to and then at a place.

442

I went to the supermarket.

443

I went to school.

444

I went to the gym.

445

I went to the gym.

446

Hmm.

447

Very nice, Alice.

448

Don't look at me like that.

449

Number four, I met and then at a person.

450

I met my friend.

451

I met my boss.

452

I met an interesting person.

453

I met an interesting person.

454

Very useful when you want to tell a story.

455

Oh yes, I met an interesting person today.

456

Now the other person wants to know more.

457

Exactly.

458

It starts a conversation.

459

And that's the goal, to keep the conversation going.

460

Keep it going.

461

Don't let it stop at just one word.

462

Yes.

463

Don't just say good.

464

Say something more.

465

Even one extra sentence.

466

One extra sentence makes a big difference.

467

Okay.

468

Now let's talk about mistakes, because I know many of you are afraid of making them.

469

I used to be afraid too.

470

When I first started speaking English, oh, it was terrible.

471

What kind of mistakes did you make?

472

Oh, all kinds.

473

I remember one time I wanted to say, I am excited, but I said, I am exciting.

474

Oh, I am exciting.

475

That means something different.

476

Yes.

477

I am exciting means I am an exciting person, like I am very interesting and thrilling.

478

Very confident.

479

Too confident.

480

But I wanted to say I am excited, meaning I have a feeling.

481

I feel happy and eager.

482

This is a very common mistake.

483

Ed and Ing adjectives.

484

Excited versus exciting.

485

Bored versus boring.

486

Tired versus tiring.

487

Let me explain this quickly.

488

I am excited, you feel something.

489

I am exciting, you cause that feeling in others.

490

So the movie is exciting, but I am excited about the movie.

491

Exactly.

492

The movie makes you feel something, so the movie is exciting.

493

And you feel the excitement, so you are excited.

494

Oh, that makes so much sense.

495

The class is boring.

496

I am bored.

497

The exercise is tiring.

498

I am tired.

499

Perfect.

500

So is this a bad mistake to make?

501

No, it's very common.

502

Even advanced learners make this mistake.

503

And when you make it, someone might correct you gently.

504

And you learn, and next time, you remember.

505

That's how it works.

506

Here is another common mistake.

507

I have 30 years old.

508

Oh, yes.

509

Many people say this.

510

In some languages, you say, I have, for age.

511

But in English, we say, I am.

512

I am 30 years old, not I have 30 years old.

513

I am 25 years old.

514

I am 40 years old.

515

Always I am.

516

I am, not I have.

517

Got it.

518

And one more.

519

Yesterday, I go to the market.

520

Ooh, that one I hear a lot.

521

Yesterday, this is past, so we need past tense.

522

Yesterday, I went to the market.

523

Go becomes went in the past.

524

Go, went, come, came, see, saw, eat, ate.

525

Irregular verbs.

526

These take practice.

527

Yes, they take practice.

528

But don't be afraid.

529

Just try.

530

Make mistakes.

531

Learn, move forward.

532

Move forward.

533

I love that.

534

Always move forward.

535

Okay, David, can we talk more about thinking in English?

536

Because that tip really stuck with me. Of course.

537

Let's go deeper.

538

So you said we should practice thinking in English.

539

But how do we start?

540

Start small.

541

Very small.

542

When you wake up, look around the room, name the things you see. In English.

543

Oh, like bed, window, curtain, lamp.

544

Yes.

545

Chair, table, cup, book, phone.

546

These are simple words, but saying them in your head, in English, helps your brain get used to English.

547

It's like a warm-up, like stretching before you run.

548

I love that.

549

Yes, a warm-up for your English brain.

550

And then, when you get better, you can make small sentences.

551

The weather today is cold.

552

I need a warm jacket.

553

I want breakfast.

554

I feel good.

555

And slowly, your brain starts to skip the translation step.

556

Exactly.

557

Instead of thinking in your language and then translating, You just think in English directly.

558

And that makes speaking so much faster.

559

So much faster and more natural.

560

David, can you give us a little exercise?

561

Something listeners can do right now?

562

Yes, great idea.

563

Listeners, are you ready?

564

Let's do a small exercise together.

565

Right now, wherever you are listening to this.

566

Look around you or think about where you are right now.

567

Maybe you are in your kitchen.

568

Maybe you are in a car.

569

Maybe you are at work.

570

And describe it in English, out loud if you can, or in your head.

571

For example, I am in my kitchen.

572

It is small but nice.

573

There is a table and two chairs.

574

I can smell coffee.

575

Oh, I can smell coffee.

576

I like that one.

577

Use what you see.

578

Use what you feel.

579

Use what you hear.

580

Describe it.

581

I can hear music.

582

I am sitting on a sofa.

583

The room is warm.

584

Perfect.

585

Simple sentences.

586

Real words.

587

Present tense.

588

This is a great exercise.

589

Do this every day, even for two or three minutes.

590

Every day.

591

Small steps.

592

Big progress.

593

Small steps, big progress.

594

Write that down too, everyone.

595

Okay, one more very important topic.

596

How do you keep a conversation going?

597

Oh yes, because sometimes you start talking and then it stops.

598

There is silence and it's awkward.

599

Awkward.

600

Great word.

601

Awkward means uncomfortable, difficult, embarrassing.

602

That awkward silence.

603

Ugh.

604

We all know it.

605

So, how do we avoid it?

606

How?

607

Ask questions.

608

When you don't know what to say, ask a question.

609

Oh, yes.

610

A question keeps the other person talking.

611

Exactly.

612

The pressure moves to them, and you have time to think.

613

Smart.

614

Very smart.

615

Some useful questions in conversation.

616

Really?

617

Tell me more.

618

How did that make you feel?

619

What happened next?

620

These are great.

621

They show you are listening, and they keep the conversation moving.

622

What happened next?

623

This is perfect when someone is telling a story.

624

And really, tell me more.

625

This shows interest.

626

The other person feels good.

627

Everyone likes to feel heard.

628

When you ask, tell me more, you are saying, I am interested in you.

629

And the conversation gets better.

630

Another great phrase, I know what you mean.

631

I know what you mean.

632

It means, I understand.

633

I feel the same.

634

Very natural.

635

Very common.

636

I know what you mean.

637

Work was hard for me today, too.

638

And also, me too.

639

One of the most powerful phrases in conversation.

640

So simple, but so powerful.

641

I love pizza.

642

Me too.

643

Instant connection.

644

I was so tired this morning.

645

Me too.

646

You understand each other.

647

Me too.

648

Use this all the time.

649

All the time.

650

It keeps the conversation warm.

651

Okay, everyone.

652

Let's now go through the key phrases from today.

653

Slowly, clearly.

654

We will say each phrase twice.

655

Please repeat after us.

656

This is good practice.

657

Let's go.

658

Number one, can I have a coffee please?

659

Can I have a coffee please?

660

Say it again, can I have a coffee please?

661

Number two, it a coffee, please?

662

2. It was a good day.

663

It was a good day.

664

One more time.

665

It was a good day.

666

3. I went to the supermarket.

667

I went to the supermarket.

668

Past tense.

669

Went.

670

I went.

671

4. I am excited about this.

672

I am excited.

673

Not I am exciting.

674

I am excited.

675

I am excited.

676

I am excited.

677

Feel the difference.

678

Number five.

679

Really?

680

Tell me more.

681

Really?

682

Tell me more.

683

Really?

684

Tell me more.

685

Use this in every conversation.

686

Number six.

687

Me too.

688

Me too.

689

Me too.

690

Simple and powerful.

691

Number seven.

692

I know what you mean.

693

I know what you mean.

694

I know what you mean.

695

So natural, so friendly.

696

Number eight.

697

Perfect does not come before practice.

698

Perfect comes from practice.

699

Perfect does not come before practice.

700

Perfect comes from practice.

701

Say it one more time.

702

Perfect does not come before practice.

703

Perfect comes from practice.

704

Beautiful.

705

Print that.

706

Put it on your wall.

707

Simple and powerful.

708

Please do.

709

Okay, David.

710

Can we talk more about thinking in English?

711

Because that tip really stuck with me. Of course.

712

Let's go deeper.

713

So, you said we should practice thinking in English.

714

But how do we start?

715

Start small.

716

Very small.

717

When you wake up, look around the room, name the things you see in English.

718

Oh, like bed, window, curtain, lamp.

719

Yes, chair, table, cup, book, phone.

720

These are simple words, but saying them in your head, in English, helps your brain get used to English.

721

It's like a warm-up, like stretching before you run.

722

I love that.

723

Yes, a warm-up for your English brain.

724

And then, when you get better, you can make small sentences.

725

The weather today is cold.

726

I need a warm jacket.

727

I want breakfast.

728

I feel good.

729

And slowly, your brain starts to skip the translation step.

730

Exactly.

731

Instead of thinking in your language and then translating, you just think in English directly.

732

And that makes speaking so much faster.

733

So much faster and more natural.

734

David, can you give us a little exercise, something listeners can do right now?

735

Yes, great idea.

736

Listeners, are you ready?

737

Let's do a small exercise together.

738

Right now, wherever you are listening to this.

739

Look around you, or think about where you are right now.

740

Maybe you are in your kitchen.

741

Maybe you are in a car.

742

Maybe you are at work.

743

And describe it, in English, out loud if you can, or in your head.

744

For example, I am in my kitchen.

745

It is small but nice.

746

There is a table and two chairs.

747

I can smell coffee.

748

Oh, I can smell coffee.

749

I like that one.

750

Use what you see.

751

Use what you feel.

752

Use what you hear.

753

Describe it.

754

I can hear music.

755

I am sitting on a sofa.

756

The room is warm.

757

Perfect.

758

Simple sentences, real words, present tense.

759

This is a great exercise.

760

Do this every day, even for two or three minutes.

761

Every day.

762

Small steps, big progress.

763

Small steps, big progress.

764

Write that down too, everyone.

765

Now we have some questions for you, the listener.

766

Yes, these questions help you practice.

767

You can answer them in the comments.

768

You can say them out loud.

769

You can write them in a notebook.

770

However you practice, just practice.

771

Question number one.

772

How was your day today?

773

Tell us in simple English.

774

Use what you learned.

775

It was, I went to, I felt.

776

Question number two.

777

What do you usually do in the morning?

778

I wake up at, I have breakfast, I go to.

779

Try to make three sentences, at least three.

780

Question number three.

781

What is one thing that makes you happy?

782

Ooh, I like this one.

783

Me too.

784

See, I used me too.

785

You did.

786

Perfect example.

787

Answer these questions out loud if you can, even if you are alone.

788

Talk to your phone, talk to your mirror, talk to your cat.

789

If you have a cat, I'm sure they are very good listeners.

790

The best listeners.

791

Very patient.

792

The goal is simple.

793

Open your mouth, make English sounds.

794

Practice every day.

795

Every day.

796

Even five minutes.

797

It adds up.

798

Okay, everyone, we are getting close to the end of today's episode.

799

Already?

800

It feels like we just started.

801

I know!

802

Time flies when we're having fun.

803

Time flies.

804

Do you know this expression, listeners?

805

Time flies means time passes very quickly.

806

Time flies when you're having fun.

807

And today was fun.

808

It was!

809

We talked about why speaking English is hard.

810

We talked about how to stop overthinking.

811

We practiced real conversations at a coffee shop talking about your day.

812

We looked at common mistakes, and we learned how to keep conversations going.

813

So much in one episode.

814

And now, one final message to every single person watching or listening right now.

815

Yes, listen carefully.

816

You are not perfect, and that is okay.

817

Nobody is perfect, not even native English speakers.

818

We all make mistakes, every day.

819

But the people who get better, the people who really improve their English, are the ones who keep going.

820

They speak even when they are afraid.

821

They try even when they make mistakes.

822

They practice even when it feels hard.

823

And slowly, it gets easier.

824

It gets more natural.

825

It becomes fun.

826

It does become fun.

827

Like right now, I am speaking English and I am having fun.

828

Yes, and that is the goal, to enjoy the journey.

829

The journey of learning English.

830

It is not a race.

831

Take your time.

832

Be kind to yourself.

833

Be kind to yourself.

834

I love that, Alice.

835

And remember, every great English speaker was once a beginner.

836

Every single one.

837

Every single one.

838

Even the people on TV.

839

Even the actors.

840

Even the teachers.

841

Once, they were beginners too.

842

And they kept going.

843

And so will you.

844

We believe in you.

845

We really do.

846

Now, here is our question for the comments.

847

We love hearing from you.

848

Today's question is...

849

What is one thing you did today?

850

Tell us in English.

851

Use one or two simple sentences.

852

For example, I went to work.

853

I had lunch with a friend.

854

Or, I stayed home.

855

I watched a movie.

856

Whatever you did today, tell us.

857

We read every single comment.

858

Every one.

859

And we love to see your English getting better.

860

So leave a comment right now.

861

Don't think too long.

862

Just write.

863

Just write.

864

And remember today's lesson.

865

Stop thinking.

866

Start talking.

867

Stop thinking.

868

Start talking.

869

Thank you so much for being here with us today.

870

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

871

See you in the next episode.

872

Bye, everyone.

873

Keep going.

874

You are doing amazing.

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.
