Hello from Japan.

This is country number eight for me and I'm very excited to be here.

So just arriving now from Taipei.

Let me get through immigration and then we'll go from there.

Got Mario on the wall here.

Something going on with my ear from the flight.

Hopefully it resolves itself soon.

Okay guys, well we are officially in Tokyo.

So yes, country number eight.

Very, very grateful to be here and

that was a very quick immigration process i recommend

that you fill out the forms online before you come here uh

because it was just like scan qr codes put your fingerprints

in bang done now i have to pick up my jr pass i bought the jr pass um

so i need to pick that up

and then we're gonna take this train

and we're gonna explore tokyo something's going on with my ear

it's like there's water it feels like there's water in my

ear something to do with the elevation it's like my ear didn't pop i don't know

but i need to ask somebody where the jr pass is

all right guys i got my uh japan uh rail pass

here took not too long i bought it i pre -purchased it online i was worried

because some people say it takes forever but it took me very very short amount of time.

I have my SIM card.

It costs me $40 for 15 days.

Unlimited data.

And now I need to find an ATM.

First look at the money here in Japan.

Nice.

Okay, sorry for the flickering, guys, but I had to change my settings there, so the lights are now good.

No more flickering in this video.

Okay, so here's the JR East.

Now I need to take the Narita Express,

the JR line, and I was told that I have to schedule it.

I should have scheduled it in advance, truthfully.

I scheduled a bunch of other train rides in advance. So, let's see.

Here's my JR Pass.

Looks like I should probably buy these, one of these sweet cook cards, but let me go talk to someone here.

Maybe I don't have to schedule it, I don't know.

Do I need a reservation to take the Narita Express?

Yeah.

Oh, I do.

Okay, Okay, I don't have a reservation, but I have my JR pass.

Gotcha.

Okay, maybe.

I'll try.

Yeah.

So are there multiple ones?

$4 .45 and then is there another one?

Another one, yes.

Okay.

Alright, thank you.

So maybe I'll get on $4 .45, maybe I won't.

I don't know.

But it's a significant cost savings, so I better do it.

Because an Uber, yes, it would probably be quicker, but it would be very expensive.

So, I've already paid for this JR pass.

I might as well take advantage of it.

Oh, I made it.

I just had to run.

90 seconds.

I made it within 90 seconds, so here we are.

You guys have to say that was a bit stressful.

but I got it all sorted within like 90 seconds

but we made it so we're on our way in here to Shinjuku

so yes here we go I was struggling with my ticket

getting the the reader to read my ticket in a very friendly couple a Japanese couple really helped me

and they pointed me in the right direction I got it so

we're in tokyo baby okay guys well i would consider myself

to be a pro with public transportation up to this point

but i gotta tell you this one here in japan is stressful

so now i'm doing a switch and i'm at tokyo station i think i need to go to maronucci line

but i don't i don't know i have to ask somebody i've asked two people okay guys

so I 100 % missed my connecting train here to Shinjuku

so I think I'm gonna go to a visitor center

and see what I can do to get on another train there

but it's been a long day of travel I'll tell you

that much first time I've ever missed a train I'm actually

really good with this stuff this has been very confusing and we're in Tokyo station so it's like the biggest one

I mean how crowded it is here.

Oh my god.

So I gotta sort it out.

I gotta go to Shuwu line, one or two.

I missed the other one, so I gotta go to this one.

But we are in the biggest city in the world, and probably the most busy metro station in the world, if I'm guessing.

okay very stressful very stressful so

let's see here okay two lines i mean wow guys okay

i mean i can't even walk right now It's crazy.

Okay, I don't see Jiu Align.

Okay, Jiu Align.

I'm in Shinjuku.

Some very friendly man helped me out to make sure I was on the right one, but now I have a 9 minute walk and I just need to find the right exit.

It's gonna be fun.

I have no idea where this is.

Oh boy.

This is the most difficult metro day I've been on, I've had here.

okay does google tell me okay we'll just go out here

okay well

that worked thank god okay well i just need to get the heck outside i'm tired of being in a metro.

100

I think I've been in a metro for like two hours, three hours.

101

For the first time ever, I missed my connecting train for the first time in my life.

102

So there you can see, Shinjuku Station.

103

Okay.

104

Well, this is expert mode, guys.

105

This is expert mode.

106

Uber would have been easier, but much more expensive, so it is what it is.

107

Now, let me try to find my place but we are here guys

108

so we are here all right here we go eight minutes so

109

i will be in tokyo for two weeks i do wish i maybe scheduled more

110

because just on the metro in here i was like man there are

111

so many things i want to see in tokyo

112

but there's always a number two There's always a chance to come back in any of these places that you travel,

113

so all right Now it's very hot it's very humid.

114

I decided to wear pants instead of shorts

115

because I heard some horror stories about immigration and it turns out

116

that this was literally the easiest immigration I've had so definitely just uh apply online

117

like if you're doing

118

if you're coming to Tokyo just apply do all of the

119

immigration stuff beforehand you'll get a QR you just put the

120

QR go right through easy don't even have to worry about it

121

but there is something about like looking presentable at immigration especially for Japan

122

but anyway it was unnecessary so I'm gonna put a more comfortable pair of clothing on and then

123

I'm gonna go probably get a beer and definitely get some Japanese food because I've only had

124

airport lounge food it is 6 30 p .m this day

125

started at like 5 a .m for me my flight got

126

delayed 90 minutes in Taipei we lose an hour going from Taipei to Japan

127

so I landed here at 3 30 it is 6 30.

128

took me three hours to get through the airport buy a sim card pick up my jr pass

129

get money it took an hour

130

and a half to get in on the first train ride

131

i missed the second train ride had to reroute get on

132

a different train now i'm here okay that's a lot it's a mouthful i know

133

but we're in tokyo so look at this look at this guys no more complaining no No more complaining.

134

It's all beautiful.

135

Cool.

136

Amazing.

137

Amazing view.

138

Tokyo has been an eternal bucket list item for me, and so I'm so happy to be here.

139

Okay guys, well, look at this really cool alleyway.

140

I am somewhere right around here.

141

It's called Tokyo Stay.

142

There it is.

143

Okay, I didn't realize how in the heart of everything I am.

144

Here it is, Tokyo Stay.

145

Let's get checked in here.

146

oh all right okay through here and okay okay guys

147

so we are here

148

so this is considered a classic business hotel it's called a business hotel in tokyo

149

and they're typically cheaper okay

150

but basically this is what you get okay this is what you get it's a room i'm very happy with this.

151

Let's take a look at what is in here.

152

I have no idea what's this.

153

How to use Corby trouser.

154

Oh, it's a trouser press.

155

All right.

156

I'm not going to do that right now.

157

Oh, the bed.

158

Oh yeah.

159

It's definitely hard, but you know what?

160

We will make do.

161

No complaints because we are here.

162

We also have air con and this should be the bathroom.

163

Oh, oh, whoa.

164

I was not expecting this.

165

The bathroom is almost as big as the entire room.

166

Wow, I was expecting a crazy small bathroom.

167

And you know what?

168

I'm super excited for the Japanese toilet game.

169

I'm not gonna lie, okay?

170

So, if you don't know, in Japan, these crazy toilets.

171

This is how you work the toilet.

172

Over here.

173

So, I have no idea.

174

It's gonna take a minute for me to understand how to use this.

175

Walk in the shower?

176

Oh my.

177

Hello? and here we are so this room cost me 89

178

or 90 a night yes i know i'm not joking you heard

179

that right 89 or 90 a night

180

because i am in shinjuku i'm staying here three nights this

181

is like one of the best places in tokyo to stay shinjuku

182

and shibuya those are the two places they're the most expensive places other than ginza

183

so ginza shinbuku ginza shinjuku and shibuya are the most expensive places to stay

184

because they're probably the most lively energetic active central areas

185

so that's why you can expect to get something like this for $90 a night however

186

and I'm very proud of this I'll be in Tokyo for two weeks I think it's like 15 days 14

187

or 15 days and my total spend per night for two weeks in Tokyo is $79 a night

188

so I was able to get the spend down by doing a combination of Airbnb

189

and hotels all right

190

and let's take a look at this view here we even

191

got a trouser press guys I don't even know do I

192

wear trousers of course I do anyway here's the view not much

193

but you know what zero complaints from wah let's go let's go explore Tokyo Hey guys,

194

so here's free accessories that comes with the room, toothbrushes, toothpaste, all of this stuff,

195

like coffees, and then we also have these famous Japanese vending machines here.

196

First look at them, so you can get yourself a Kirin beer, 150 yen is a dollar, so that would mean that $300 is $2.

197

So that would mean that this is about $2 .50, $3 maybe.

198

This is like $3.

199

But yeah, cool.

200

Cool, cool, cool.

201

So I don't have a plan other than I'm going to go explore Shijuku.

202

And I might even head over to Shibuya Crossing, which is the famous crossing.

203

We'll see.

204

I don't know.

205

I'm feeling it.

206

It's one of these nights I don't even really want to bring up the map.

207

I just want to walk.

208

I just want to walk and I want to see what's out here.

209

So stressful day but we're here.

210

Look at all these little cafes.

211

Could be quite challenging to order but you know since I'm only in Shinjuku for three days,

212

three nights, I do want to like pick wisely I want I want to choose wisely on the restaurants

213

so yeah this is like a special place now I can always come back because where I'm staying next

214

is close to a metro

215

so the metro in Tokyo you can get anywhere you need to go

216

but yeah I'm right here in Shinjuku for three days

217

so I might as well take advantage

218

which is look at this street guys oh man

219

and I suspect every street you turn down is going to be really cool.

220

so yeah sure there's amazing stuff down here and grilled pork looks really good i have to say

221

some people have told me that it can be the interactions can be a little cold

222

in japan but i'll tell you what i have not experienced

223

that i have experienced very friendly people so far uh

224

because i've been i got legitimately lost on my way in here and without the people I talked to, I would have been really confused.

225

So for my Thai friends, Chang, Singha, Saigon, Lao.

226

So we've got a Southeast Asia bar there.

227

I mean, it's first night.

228

We have to go with a bowl of ramen, right?

229

Is that not is that not what you do?

230

I've got more vending machines here.

231

I will probably do a vending the team video

232

or do we have to get a sapro you tell me sapro

233

or Kieran what is the what is the one I think

234

sapro is a more premium I'm at the point where I

235

just want to dip into one of these restaurants get a food and some beer

236

because it's where I'm at

237

but I want to make the most of it you know

238

do you feel me do you feel me okay here we go All right,

239

let's go with this.

240

Okay.

241

Onigashima.

242

I got a spicy ramen and I gotta say who does it look good?

243

Let's try the froth and garlicky broth.

244

Spicy.

245

Very spicy but very good.

246

The chopsticks here.

247

Careful I don't put my elbows on the table

248

okay I think I will get a beer number two at

249

the sale house here all right well cheers again they had

250

Kieran on drafts I did not they did not have Sapporo on draft.

251

I'm sure I'll have Vinny Zapros here.

252

Okay guys, while I've been sitting there looking at this vending machine, I was drinking this beer.

253

So we've got 100 yen water.

254

I think I'm going to need some water.

255

But I want to see what else is over here.

256

So we've got isotonic water.

257

I've got 100 yen here.

258

I don't know if it takes 50 yen coins or not, but by the way, this is incredible.

259

Uh, Calpis, uh, which is like a, uh, it's like a fermented,

260

like a yogurt drink, but all right, let's see here.

261

Okay.

262

It does take 50 yen coins.

263

Okay.

264

So we'll put a hundred in here and what do we do,

265

okay, okay, let's get this open,

266

so it's called picnic water,

267

picnic water, it's good, so I was gonna go to Shibuya Crossing tonight,

268

but you know I've been on a metro for like hours

269

today i don't feel like going back to the metro station

270

today i really don't it was just too much metro

271

so i'm gonna go over to golden guy which is a place

272

that has like hidden bars

273

and basically these bars are very special only certain amount of people are allowed in each bar

274

so like the bar might be capped at like 10 people only 10 people can be in at a time

275

and foreigners are not allowed in every bar it's a very special place

276

so we're gonna go over to golden guy

277

and we'll see we can get a seat I don't know

278

so not only do can you be denied entry into a golden guy bar

279

but I don't think they're gonna like filming

280

so I will try we'll see how far we get

281

but I really don't feel like taking the metro again

282

so that's where I'm at it's like one of these ramen spots where you order you order from the machine

283

and they you go in and you pick up the order pretty cool I'll just maybe try it While I'm here.

284

Looks like you, like I said, looks like you pick the one you want.

285

I guess you get a token or a ticket and then you go in and they serve it to you.

286

Like no contact.

287

So Google Maps tells me that it's right around here.

288

So I have no idea what that says, it's in Japanese.

289

But you can see like there are a bunch of little shops down there.

290

And basically these are like little hidden bars.

291

that have like you just literally some some people just you're

292

not allowed to go in you just have to see

293

if you're allowed in um we'll see i don't know i'm gonna try guys i'm gonna try

294

so yeah like down here i'm sure that's one okay death match in hell

295

is this a golden guy this this whole area like down

296

there down there down there yeah okay thank you guys thank you

297

okay

298

so here we go deathmatch in hell seems pretty cool no cover charge

299

you guys get the idea here look so like that guy was saying it's like a little network

300

of bars and shops and each one has a different theme

301

oh my gosh this is so cool i'm gonna have to go down all of them

302

i wonder where that goes probably somewhere cool hello Wow.

303

I'm blown away.

304

I mean, I've seen this on YouTube,

305

but to see, to be here in person is amazing.

306

500 yen cover charge.

307

Okay.

308

So if you're going to go there, you better drink.

309

okay oh wow and uh keeps going farther wait i want to go this way

310

oh very uh a lot of foreigners here

311

314

This one's like aquarium themed okay i want to go back down that other street

315

yeah i mean this is like one of these things where

316

there are no words necessary i hope hope you guys can

317

see how amazing this is yeah i don't know what's going

318

on in there nope okay photography prohibited i can't go in there um some of these no cover charge cash only

319

some of these i think you can find yourself

320

and you can get yourself into some things i think here

321

if you catch my drift not not not endorsing that in any way but

322

oh you get pizzas here i'm noticing like lots of pizza here in uh tokyo lots of pizza available

323

okay so that might be golden guy

324

but i want to see what's down here

325

and then i think we're going to dip into one of those shops

326

and get ourselves a golden guy beer but there's something

327

that looks cool down here so i want to see it all these neon lights caught my eye so wow

328

first and foremost let's look down here it's like a grass walkway it's like a i don't know it's a walkway.

329

Might have to take that back because I'm very intrigued.

330

Is this whole area golden guy?

331

Oh my gosh guys.

332

Okay, photos are are incoming.

333

I know five words.

334

Japanese onegaishaimasu, which means please.

335

So when you order something you can point and say onegaishaimasu.

336

What else do I know?

337

Sumimasan, which means excuse me Arigato,

338

arigate gozaimasu, and arigato, uh, of course konnichiwa, and there's also konbaiwa,

339

uh, deathmatch, so, that's what I know, cover, cover for foreign visitors, well I like that, that is very nice,

340

that is very nice, maybe we go there, no photo, okay, I gotta be careful, not everybody's gonna want this,

341

If I can't bring you in, I'm not going to bring you in.

342

I'm just telling you right now.

343

English, okay.

344

English, okay.

345

Oh, good bar?

346

Good?

347

Good bar?

348

Okay.

349

Okay.

350

Okay.

351

It's here.

352

Oh, sit here.

353

Okay.

354

You picked my seat for me.

355

Okay, alright.

356

Okay, thank you.

357

Alright guys, I'm continuing this First Day in Japan video here during the next evening.

358

And we're gonna go explore around the Shinjuku Station area.

359

In fact, we're just going to explore more of Shinjuku.

360

I'm going to be doing Shibuya Crossing in another video.

361

So yeah, there are a couple really cool shops it seems like over here that I'm excited to check out.

362

So this video is picking up after you last saw me go into the Golden Gai area

363

and I will tell you that you'll be sure to make friends if you decide to go in one of those bars.

364

It was an incredible time last night

365

and yeah I'd highly recommend you check out Golden Gai if you are coming to Tokyo.

366

It's an unforgettable experience so you can just take a look at this street.

367

It's absolutely beautiful at night and there's something about Tokyo at night

368

that I really wanted to capture in this first day in Tokyo video because one thing I want to highlight

369

is that Tokyo is one of the world's safest cities

370

so this is a place where you can absolutely explore at any time of the day for sure

371

so it's just something to keep in mind

372

you know I always like to bring in population statistics

373

so Tokyo is estimated to have around around 37 million people that's

374

if you take the entire metro area

375

which puts it at the world's largest city

376

and um it is very evident

377

when you are walking around especially in the public transportation areas

378

so yeah now one of the things

379

that i would like to do here now we're not in Akihabara

380

but one of the things i would like to do here is maybe go into like a bookstore

381

or like a used cd shop or used electronic shop

382

because i believe there are some in this area so yeah

383

that might be something that we get into here but right now we're just going to explore

384

uh around here for right now i really like the energy here

385

so yeah over here looks like we've got like a shoe

386

shop looks like all different types of brands you pick up shoes lots of like clothing areas

387

and this is one of these things where I don't even really want to bring up the map.

388

I kind of just want to walk around.

389

You can see the street here is made for walking

390

and right there is JR East which is that very stressful metro station

391

that I'm sure I'll get used to by the time I am done here.

392

This feels like a relatively upscale area here.

393

You know Honestly, a lot of Tokyo.

394

I have a lot more of Tokyo to explore in my life, and I think it would take a lifetime Truthfully,

395

but this feels like pretty a relatively upscale area and this area is very interesting

396

because it's a mix of local eateries restaurants and

397

also retail shopping and

398

It's like one of these things where you just you want

399

to go in every shop You want to go in ever absolutely every shop

400

and check everything out like just look at this neon sign it looks incredible

401

so at least to me i don't know if you guys find

402

that interesting but i do i don't know what the words are

403

but yeah let's continue on

404

so there's a store called book off i actually did peek at the map

405

but there's a store called book off

406

that has uh like used books this is i believe i don't know

407

but i believe this is also owned by the same company

408

that owns hard off which is a an electronic store where you can buy used Game Boys

409

and vintage like electronics video game stuff like that

410

and I will be going to a few of those in a future video here on this Japan series

411

so yeah okay so I don't know we walk up here, we walk down here.

412

I'd rather walk down here, but yeah, let's see.

413

I am somewhat limited on time.

414

I do think we walk down here, so this is even better.

415

I'm somewhat limited on time because the store closes in about two hours, but eh, not really.

416

Oh, it's only about a 10 minute walk.

417

And guys, look at this X bar.

418

It's called Craft Beer in Game, so I'm assuming you can play like arcade games i do want to dip into an arcade at some point

419

so maybe it's the same thing as here i don't know

420

but this looks pretty cool look you can win a uh like candy

421

you can win candy here look at this okay

422

and i have to say this is a mix of adults

423

and children playing right now so it's kind of for all ages here i mean this is just so fascinating

424

and beyond anything i've seen before in this style

425

look popcorn i have no idea what this is oh i

426

don't know i don't know you can even uh try your luck at getting some house blend uh starbucks here

427

or massive cringles this is essentially gambling these things almost never hit

428

but hey oh a gengar i see a gengar in every video i've been watching my taiwan series

429

oh look uh kirby oh my gosh uh my inner child is really going to come out here in tokyo

430

that is for sure that is for darn sure

431

and that's a good thing that is a good thing

432

if there's another floor to this oh my gosh look at

433

this oh my god guys have you ever seen anything like that

434

One of the interesting things I've seen in this Shinjuku area is that there are casinos,

435

air quotes, basically they're gaming arcades but they're casinos and I would like to go in and play some blackjack.

436

I'm not going to be able to film.

437

I also think there will be absolutely no English speaking there

438

so I don't think I'd even be able to get to

439

play okay well this looks very cool I don't know

440

if that's what I'm looking for

441

but I think I'm gonna probably end up going in here we see more of these uh amazing

442

vending machines we've got Pepsi refresher shot

443

or refresh shot I have no idea what

444

that is I'm not going to roll the dice on

445

that right now I do think that some of these coffees

446

that you buy are hot like they actually come out hot but I need to know before I buy

447

but you can get a shot at some of the prices

448

here a bottle of water is less than a dollar

449

because a dollar 150 yen is a dollar

450

so nice bottle of mineral water for less than a dollar same with a coke

451

and yeah but you can see they're just everywhere but okay Okay,

452

so Book Off should be around here somewhere.

453

And just take a look at this shot here of this street.

454

Oh, it looks incredible.

455

I'm going to take another photo.

456

Yes, here's Book Off.

457

Okay, now how do we get up here?

458

There is Book Off.

459

Oh, it looks like DVDs and stuff here.

460

Wow.

461

I do wonder if they have an English section.

462

Oh, look at that.

463

oh my god guys look at this wonder what this novel's about oh man

464

oh shinigami i do know what a shinigami is i have watched death note so okay well

465

let's see what else is here and see if there's anything else interesting here

466

okay up here I think we have like DVDs oh no

467

these are books okay you've got the one -piece manga here

468

here what arcs these are oh I can't read Japanese I don't know

469

and take a look they also have phones for sale here

470

and you can even buy Nintendo switches here or other video games How about this,

471

M64, M64 dance.

472

Okay so this section, I'm not sure what's going on other than there's more bleach stuff.

473

I think this is like figurines and like some more like anime stuff.

474

I think you can see like trinkets here.

475

Little trinkets.

476

So we have like, oh, Pokemon cards, get out of town guys, get out of town, we got a Mew.

477

Oh wow, look at all of these cards guys.

478

Okay, well all of that book shopping made me thirsty so we're going to go ahead and get a sparkling water, believe that's sparkling water, I hope it is, so 120 yen.

479

Let's see if I have it here, good.

480

And you can see the ones we can buy light up, the ones that you don't have enough money for don't light up, so okay.

481

Okay, I consider myself to be a huge fan of sparkling water, and let's give this a taste.

482

Mmm, some qualified sparkling water.

483

so guys this is one interesting thing

484

so you have these uh coin lockers all over japan here

485

so if you like i don't know if you're in between hotel rooms

486

or airbnbs you can put your luggage in here it looks

487

like it's about a thousand yen i don't know how long

488

that is for i don't know how much a thousand yen would get you

489

but thousand yen is about seven dollars seven eight dollars something like

490

that but yeah it's so interesting i've seen them all over uh tokyo so far

491

but uh yeah the vibe here in japan is just is

492

unbelievable as i was walking i looked to my right and found this cool little street here.

493

I have no idea what this is.

494

I'm really glad I decided to come down here.

495

Well, I have read

496

that this is like a classic thing in Japan where you go down an alleyway and there's a whole culture here.

497

Okay, well I don't know which way to go

498

but I think we'll go this way the smell of food right now is

499

so incredible no idea

500

so down here it seems to be even farther going even

501

brother see the big hot pot oh my gosh wow yeah this is uh this is next level

502

i'm really wishing i think we've got yakitori here or some sort of skewers

503

really wishing i didn't eat already guys yeah i'm gonna have to come back here tomorrow Wow.

504

Indescribable how cool this is.

505

Alright, so I'm walking towards Kabuchiko, which is, I believe, the Korean town here in Japan.

506

I believe this is a place where, how do we say, extracurricular activities happen.

507

But it's also the place where I see poker tables and I'm wondering if I can find a place to play blackjack.

508

I won't be able to take you with me on that, but yeah, we'll see.

509

Here's a pachinko and slot.

510

So basically what happens is you play pachinko, which is a game, and you win like tokens.

511

And basically you can exchange the tokens in the alleyway next to it for money.

512

So it's an arcade so I would love to play some Bajinko

513

but I don't think I don't have an IC card I need to pick up a Suica card

514

and then I think I can load money on it I

515

don't know I probably could have asked them in there

516

but I don't know how to play it there

517

so I'm not gonna play it right now I do hear There's some live music though down here in Kibuchiko.

518

Look, it lights up.

519

I wonder what it means.

520

okay guys so we have more pachinko here and this one seems to be even bigger

521

oh another one of these alleys that you can just get lost in since 2001

522

i don't know i don't know what i'm doing here i can't read this

523

and i know you can like press i don't know i don't know what i'm doing but Okay,

524

well, that was a bucket list item.

525

Play slot machines in Tokyo.

526

So I lost 1 ,000 yen, which, again, I think is like $7.

527

It was an experience.

528

Okay, well, this is like what you see in the movies.

529

Look at this.

530

Look at this.

536

It's a bargain shop, it's a discount store.

537

It's a very interesting background.

538

Alright, so down this street you can really see the classic Tokyo scene here that you see in the movies.

539

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.
