11
Today, I'm talking to teenage surfer, Abby Fielding.
12
Abbey, welcome.
13
Tell us about how you started surfing.
14
Well, my family have always loved going to our local beach, and my dad became keen on surfing.
15
He wasn't very good, but he really wanted to show me how to do it.
16
My mum offered to buy me a board.
17
I still wasn't keen, but then I started watching surfing competitions near home, and when I saw the standard of the surfers,
18
I just felt I could do better.
19
Very confident.
20
How easy was it to get started?
21
Well, it's free to practice once you've got the equipment.
22
I went to the local surfing school for a bit too.
23
but it can cost quite a lot to buy what you need.
24
I was lent some boards before I bought one to see which type I liked best.
25
That was useful.
26
So do you go surfing all year round now?
27
Yes, even in winter when it's cold.
28
The sea is actually warmer than the land.
29
I just wear the same wetsuit as I do in the summer, although sometimes I do add gloves.
30
You'd be surprised how many people are out there surfing with me.
31
And your biggest achievement was surfing an enormous wave.
32
Oh, yeah.
33
That kind of wave only comes along a couple of times a year.
34
I borrowed a large board, as mine wasn't big enough, and I was nervous.
35
The waves were a lot bigger than they look from the beach.
36
People say it hurts if you fall off in those conditions, but I didn't have time to think about that.
37
So, any advice for other teenagers taking up surfing?
38
Well, you're never too young to start.
39
Not on big waves, of course, in case you have to swim back to the beach.
40
But in many places, you need to know how to surf whatever the waves are like, good and bad.
41
and surfing schools are okay, but watching other surfers is just as useful, and practicing yourself of course.
42
So, you're still young, what next?
43
Well, I'm going to miss the next big competition as I've injured my ankle, But my future's definitely in surfing,
44
so I need to investigate what opportunities there are.
45
There's a course in surfing science you can do at the university here, But I'm not sure that's the right path for me at the moment.
46
Well, thank you, Abby.
47
Now listen again.

Boost Your Speaking Fluency with This Teen Surfer Interview

If you’re working on conversational English, especially for IELTS speaking practice, this video is a goldmine. It targets the milestone of understanding and mimicking natural, casual dialogue—perfect for sounding less scripted and more like a native. The interview format mirrors real-life interactions, helping you get comfortable with follow-up questions, storytelling, and sharing personal experiences, all key skills for fluency.

Phrase Bank: Reusable Expressions for Daily Chats

  • "became keen on" – Great for talking about new hobbies: "My brother became keen on hiking last year."
  • "I still wasn't keen, but then..." – Useful for explaining a change of heart: "I still wasn't keen on the movie, but then the plot twist hooked me."
  • "it can cost quite a lot to buy what you need" – Handy for discussing expenses: "It can cost quite a lot to buy art supplies for the class."
  • "you'd be surprised how many" – Adds emphasis in casual talks: "You'd be surprised how many people love early morning runs."
  • "I need to investigate what opportunities there are" – Polite way to talk about future plans: "I need to investigate what opportunities there are for internships."

Fix Your Weak Spots: Master Rhythm and Intonation

This video is ideal for practicing the shadowing technique—repeating what you hear immediately after the speaker. The host and Abby use natural pauses, rising intonation in questions, and relaxed stress patterns (like "really WANTED to show me" vs. "REALLY wanted to show me"). Many learners struggle with pacing in interviews, but shadowing this clip helps you match the flow. Use a shadowing site to record yourself and compare—you’ll notice how "shadowspeaks" (or shadow speak) can transform your rhythm. Whether you’re prepping for IELTS or just want to sound more confident, this dialogue trains you to speak with the ease of a real conversation, not a textbook.

Pro tip: Focus on Abby’s casual tone when she says, "Well, my family have always loved..." – that "well" is a natural filler, not a mistake. Mimicking these small details is how you move from "good" to "fluent."

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.
