This is a video in slow English to help you practice your listening comprehension.

Tonight I have a date.

It is a date with my boyfriend,

um, so it's not a first date or anything but I thought that we could get ready together.

I'm starting with my skincare.

So I have just washed my face and now I need to moisturise my skin.

My skin right now like sucks honestly because I have been travelling.

I've been travelling so my skin is kind of bad.

I'm gonna put on this moisturiser.

It's this one.

It's the Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturiser.

Me and my boyfriend, we have been together for two years and today is the anniversary.

We have a long distance relationship right now.

It has not always been long distance but right now we are doing long distance.

So we're celebrating our anniversary on FaceTime.

Maybe that's sad but he's coming to visit me next week.

I also have a drink.

I'm gonna start with my foundation.

Honestly, I prefer to keep my relationship quite separate from everything I do here.

We have been together for two years and we live in different countries.

We actually, we have lived together before,

so we live together in Sweden

when I used to live in Stockholm I lived with my boyfriend we lived together

and it was so great um I really loved living with him

so yeah I definitely I definitely miss

that in many ways what am I doing I'm now gonna do my eyeshadow so I honestly like

I can't find my eyeshadow palette so I'm using this teeny little Charlotte Tilbury eyeshadow.

It's got like four four colors um and honestly they're not really my they're not really my color.

When I do makeup I love doing like super dark like super dark eye makeup

but this is like really light it's like a little pastel

little pastel palette but it's cute today I have been working

so I work as an English teacher I know some people are asking me about opening classes

but at the moment I I do want to do

that in the future

so in the future I would love to open kind of classes on here

but I'm still trying to work out how this can work in terms of like my calendar

and my schedule and international payments and things like this.

In the UK, we do study languages at school,

but oh, I'm sharpening my eyeliner.

This is my eyeliner sharpener.

Yeah, so in the UK,

we do study languages at school,

but we do a really bad,

a really bad job at it, honestly.

So So we.. we start studying languages in secondary school.

Secondary school is when you are 12,

you start studying at 12,

but you do one year of French.

I then did one year of Spanish.

And then if you want to keep studying languages,

then you can, or you can do something else.

So I did not study any languages.

I did it for two years,

a year of French and a year of Spanish.

and I know, I knew nothing.

Like, now I speak a little bit of Spanish.

I can survive in Spanish if I need to but,

you know, my French...

Bonjour.

There's nothing else.

Like, my French does not exist.

I also realised I did not explain what I'm doing with my makeup so

I'm now using the L'Oreal Paris brown eyeliner whatever um I I started using brown eyeliner recently

because I used to wear

so much eyeliner like I was not an emo I was not like an emo kid

but I was not an emo kid but I wanted to be

but I still really like wearing a lot of eye makeup um

and it's funny because I don't know what I'm doing I just put it on

and I and I smudge it I just smudge it like this

and that's this is what I do I recently have been thinking about investing

isn't that scary but I feel like now I'm like a grown-up now

so I'm starting to think about okay financial stability going into

the future you know how am I going to save money things like this

and I don't know what I'm doing so if you have a book on finances that you recommend or maybe

maybe a content creator let me know I don't have a blush at the minute um a blush is something

that I really like I want to invest in um the other day I was in Sweden

and I went to Sephora which is where I bought this foundation

so I'm using the Charlotte Tilbury I don't know what this

is glow stick whatever um i yeah i bought this from charlotte tilbury

and i also wanted to buy one of the blushes from road

but they didn't have a road in sephora so i'm using a lipstick.

Is that bad?

But I use this lipstick.

I just do that.

And I get my fingers.

I get my fingers and I smudge.

I smudge the blush.

Something I haven't done yet is my mascara.

for some reason I always put off doing my mascara I put it off until the end

so I avoid doing it I don't know why I think it's

because my I like to put mascara on my lower lashes

so the eyelashes on the bottom and sometimes that makes a mess like my eyelashes on the bottom are quite long

so I can't finish my base,

my skin, until I have done my mascara.

I just curl my eyelashes up with my finger.

My microphone died so I've changed it.

What was I saying?

I was saying about my mascara, I think.

I always use the Clinique High Impact mascara.

100

It's the best mascara ever.

101

I actually, I've been using it for like eight, maybe 10 years, honestly.

102

I just, I love it.

103

Me and my boyfriend, we met in the US.

104

I used to live in California.

105

I spent one year living in San Diego,

106

which is a city in the south of California.

107

I lived in San Diego for one year as part of an exchange.

108

I was there for study abroad and I went to UC San Diego and it was the best.

109

I think there's a joke,

110

at least in the UK,

111

there's a joke that people who go on study abroad never shut up.

112

Like they always talk about their study abroad and that is me.

113

I'm going to add a little bit of bronzer to my nose

114

as well i need to finish my makeup with my lipstick

115

so i i always always always wear this clinique black honey it's super sheer

116

so it's not super dark

117

119

120

123

124

125

I work a desk job.

126

So my job is I sit at my desk and I talk to people and I love it.

127

Like honestly guys, I love my job,

128

135

Americans call these bangs.

136

I think it's originally American English but honestly the Brits we call this bang we call these bangs now as well.

137

Listen Carefully: Start by listening to the video without repeating anything. Focus on how the speaker articulates words and phrases.
Slow it Down: If necessary, slow down the playback speed of the video to better catch the nuances of the pronunciation.
Repeat and Imitate: Pause after each sentence or phrase and repeat it out loud. Pay attention to rhythm, intonation, and stress to enhance your English speaking practice.
Use Visual Cues: As you practice, observe the speaker’s facial expressions and gestures. This will help you connect the language with emotions and meanings.
Record Yourself: Use your smartphone or computer to record your practice sessions. Listening to your pronunciation can help you notice areas for improvement.

By regularly using this method, you can significantly enhance your fluency and confidence in speaking English, making everyday conversations feel more natural.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
