Hello, Judy.

Hello, everyone.

I'm Jake.

How are you today, Judy?

I am very happy today.

Thank you.

I went for a walk this morning.

It was very nice.

And you, Jake?

I am good.

A little tired.

I stayed up late last night.

Oh, Jake.

What were you doing?

I was watching an English movie with subtitles.

Oh, subtitles.

The words at the bottom of the screen.

Yes, the English words at the bottom.

That is good English practice, Jake.

Yes, but now I am tired.

That is the problem with good movies.

Yes.

One more episode, one more episode.

I understand.

Okay, so Jake, today we have a very important topic.

Oh, what is it?

Today we are talking about your brain.

My brain?

Is something wrong with my brain?

No, no, no. Your brain is good, Jake.

Good.

I was worried.

Today we are talking about how to train your brain.

How to train your brain to think in English.

Ooh, think in English.

That sounds very difficult.

It sounds difficult, but it is not impossible.

And today I have some tips for you.

Easy tips easy tips i like easy tips i know you do

but judy can i really learn to think in english is

it truly possible yes it is very possible many people do it it takes time

but it is possible how long does it take different for everyone

but if you practice every day you will feel a change maybe in one month maybe in two one

or two months that is not so long no not so long and every day it gets a little easier.

Okay, I feel more confident now.

Good, that is the right feeling, confident and ready.

But first, before we start, we have a small request.

Yes, if you like our podcast, please click the like button and share this episode with your friends and family who are learning English.

Thank you so much.

It helps us a lot.

We love our listeners.

Okay, Now let's talk about your brain.

My favorite topic, my brain.

Okay, Jake, let me ask you a question.

Sure.

When you speak English, what do you do first in your head?

Hmm.

I think in my language, in my head.

I make the sentence, then I translate it.

Ah, yes.

You think first, then translate.

Yes.

And then the English words are wrong or slow or I forget.

Exactly.

This is a very common problem many learners do this they think in their language

and then translate is that bad it is not bad

but it is slow

and it is very hard your brain is working two times two times oh

that is a lot of work yes and

when your brain works two times it is slow

and sometimes the translation is not correct yes i translate in my head and sometimes the sentence sounds very strange or wrong.

Exactly.

So our goal today is simple.

Stop translating.

Think directly in English.

That is the dream.

Yes.

So today we want to help your brain work one time.

Think in English, speak in English.

That sounds much better. But how?

I have three tips for you today, Jake.

Three tips.

Okay, I'm ready.

Tip number one, think in small sentences.

Small sentences?

Yes, small, very small.

For example, right now, what are you doing?

Hmm.

I am sitting.

I am sitting on a chair.

Perfect.

That is a small English sentence.

I am sitting on a chair.

Simple, easy.

Oh, yes.

That is very simple.

You do not need a big, long sentence.

100

You need a small sentence in English.

101

So I just say what I see, what I do.

102

Exactly.

103

For example, you wake up in the morning.

104

What do you think?

105

Hmm.

106

I am tired.

107

Yes.

108

Perfect.

109

I am tired.

110

That is English.

111

That is thinking in English.

112

Okay.

113

So I just use simple sentences, short ones.

114

Yes.

115

Short sentences, easy words.

116

That is tip number one.

117

I like this tip.

118

It is not scary.

119

Let me try one more.

120

The sun is bright.

121

I feel warm.

122

Yes.

123

Perfect.

124

Two small sentences, two English thoughts.

125

Easy.

126

It's like a photo, but with words.

127

Oh, I love that.

128

Yes.

129

A word photo.

130

Simple, clear, beautiful.

131

A word photo.

132

I like this.

133

You can do this anywhere.

134

On the bus, in the park, at home, everywhere.

135

Oh, on the bus.

136

Let me try.

137

The bus is full.

138

People are standing.

139

I have a seat.

140

I am lucky.

141

Yes, perfect.

142

That is wonderful, Jake.

143

Thank you.

144

I am a poet.

145

An English poet.

146

Yes, an English poet on the bus.

147

This is fun.

148

I really like this tip.

149

Good.

150

The more you practice, the more natural it feels.

151

One small sentence at a time.

152

One small sentence.

153

I can do that.

154

Yes, you can.

155

Okay, tip number two.

156

What is tip number two?

157

Tip number two is input.

158

Input?

159

What is input?

160

Input is English in.

161

You listen to English.

162

You read English.

163

That goes into your brain.

164

That is input.

165

Like this podcast.

166

Yes, exactly like this podcast.

167

You listen to us.

168

English goes into your brain.

169

Oh, so I am doing input right now.

170

Yes, you are.

171

And our listeners, too.

172

They are doing input right now.

173

That is nice.

174

Input while we talk.

175

Yes, and input can be many things.

176

You can listen to songs, you can watch movies, you can read simple books.

177

Like children's books?

178

Yes, children's books are perfect for beginners.

179

I like children's books.

180

The pictures are nice.

181

Yes, the pictures help, but the language is also perfect.

182

Simple, clear, easy.

183

So the more I listen and read, the more my brain learns English.

184

Exactly.

185

Your brain hears English again and again, and slowly it starts to feel normal.

186

Like music.

187

When you hear a song many times, you know all the words.

188

Perfect example, Jake.

189

Yes, exactly like that.

190

Input is music for your brain.

191

I love that.

192

Music for my brain.

193

And there's one more thing about input, something very useful.

194

Oh, what is it?

195

Shadowing.

196

Shadowing?

197

Like my shadow on the ground?

198

Not exactly.

199

Shadowing means you listen to English and then you repeat right after.

200

You copy the words, the sounds, the rhythm.

201

Ah, so I listen to someone speak, then I say the same words.

202

Yes, like an echo.

203

Like an echo.

204

I like that.

205

So I can listen to this podcast and then repeat what you say.

206

Yes, exactly.

207

Listen, then pause, then repeat.

208

So right now, our listeners can practice shadowing with us.

209

Yes.

210

Hello, listeners.

211

Try it.

212

Repeat after us.

213

That sounds like a lot of fun.

214

It is fun, and it's very good for your mouth.

215

Your mouth learns the sounds.

216

The words become easier to say.

217

Okay.

218

I will try shadowing today with this podcast perfect okay

219

and now tip number three okay what is tip number three

220

tip number three is output output what is output output is English out you speak English you write English

221

that comes out of your brain

222

so input is in output is out yes very good Jake

223

that is easy to remember in and out exactly and out point is very important because input alone is not enough

224

not enough no you can listen to english for many years

225

but if you never speak you cannot speak oh that is sad

226

and also true yes so you need to use the english you learn you need to speak it but

227

how do i speak english if i have nobody to talk to ah good question

228

and this is a very important question i have the answer

229

tell me talk to yourself talk to myself yes talk to yourself in english

230

but people will think i'm crazy maybe but you will learn english okay

231

that is a good trade yes talk to yourself it's okay

232

it's very good practice you have no pressure no one is watching no one is judging

233

so i can make mistakes

234

and nobody cares exactly make mistakes try again make more mistakes

235

your brain is practicing okay i will try i will talk

236

to myself at home in english perfect for example you are in the kitchen you are making coffee i love coffee

237

I know.

238

So you say, in English, I am making coffee.

239

The coffee smells good.

240

I'm a little hungry.

241

Maybe I will make toast.

242

That is like a morning radio show, but only for me.

243

Yes, your own English radio show, in your kitchen.

244

Welcome to Jake's kitchen.

245

Today we are making coffee.

246

It's a beautiful morning.

247

Perfect!

248

And you can also describe what you see.

249

Look around the room right now, Jake.

250

Okay.

251

I see a table.

252

I see a window.

253

The sky is blue.

254

There is a tree outside.

255

The tree is green.

256

Yes, that's output.

257

Simple, natural, English coming out of you.

258

It is easy when I think of it like that.

259

Yes, you do not need perfect grammar.

260

You just need to speak, to try.

261

And my brain learns from trying.

262

Exactly.

263

Every time you try, your brain gets stronger.

264

Oh, that is easy.

265

I can do that.

266

Yes, simple sentences about what you are doing right now in English.

267

And my brain learns from this?

268

Yes, your brain is practicing output, speaking, using English, getting comfortable.

269

Getting comfortable.

270

Yes, that is the goal.

271

Exactly.

272

Comfortable English, not perfect English.

273

Comfortable.

274

I like that.

275

Comfortable, not perfect.

276

Say it to yourself every day.

277

Comfortable, not perfect.

278

Comfortable, not perfect.

279

Yes, I will remember this.

280

Good, because comfortable is the goal, not perfect.

281

And there is one more way to do output, writing.

282

Writing?

283

Yes, you can write to yourself in English, a small diary, a short note, just a few sentences every day.

284

Like, today I went to the shop, I bought bread, the bread was very good.

285

Perfect, yes, simple, short English.

286

That is easy, I can do that in the evening.

287

Yes, writing is output too.

288

Your brain practices English when you write.

289

So speaking and writing, both are output.

290

Exactly.

291

Use English in any way you can.

292

Speak, write, think out loud.

293

All of it helps.

294

I will speak to my coffee in the morning and write in my notebook at night.

295

You are the perfect English student, Jake.

296

Thank you, Judy.

297

I try my best.

298

Okay, I am ready to talk to my coffee.

299

Okay, so we have three tips.

300

Let me say them again.

301

Yes.

302

Review time.

303

Tip 1.

304

Think in small sentences, short sentences, easy words.

305

Small sentences.

306

I am sitting.

307

I am tired.

308

I am happy.

309

Perfect.

310

Tip 2.

311

Input.

312

Listen to English, read English.

313

Every day.

314

Input.

315

English in.

316

Podcasts, songs, movies, books.

317

Yes.

318

And tip three, output.

319

Speak English.

320

Talk to yourself.

321

Use what you know.

322

Output.

323

English out.

324

Talk to myself, even in the kitchen.

325

Especially in the kitchen.

326

Hello, coffee.

327

How are you today?

328

Yes.

329

Perfect.

330

Your coffee does not judge you.

331

My coffee is very kind.

332

Okay.

333

One more thing before we finish.

334

What is that?

335

How much time?

336

How much time do you need every day?

337

Hmm, two hours?

338

Three hours?

339

No, no, no. No?

340

A little every day.

341

A little is enough.

342

A little?

343

How little?

344

Ten minutes.

345

Ten minutes every day is very good.

346

Only ten minutes?

347

Yes, ten minutes every day is better than three hours on Saturday.

348

Really?

349

Why?

350

Because your brain learns with repetition.

351

Repetition, it means doing something again and again, every day.

352

That's how habits form.

353

That's how language grows.

354

So 10 minutes today, 10 minutes tomorrow, 10 minutes every day.

355

And after one month, two months, six months, you feel the difference.

356

Wow, I never thought about it like that.

357

Small steps every day.

358

Exactly.

359

Small steps every single day.

360

That's the secret.

361

It's like building a house.

362

One brick every day.

363

Oh, I love that.

364

Yes.

365

One brick every day.

366

And slowly, you have a house.

367

A beautiful English house.

368

Yes.

369

And habits are very important.

370

Try to do it at the same time every day.

371

Same time?

372

Yes.

373

For example, every morning with your coffee.

374

Ten minutes of English.

375

Listen to a podcast, read a few sentences, talk to yourself.

376

Oh, coffee and English every morning.

377

Yes.

378

Jake's morning English coffee time.

379

I love this plan.

380

After one week, it feels normal.

381

After one month, it feels easy.

382

After six months, people will say, Jake, your English is so good.

383

I will say thank you.

384

I practiced with my coffee.

385

Perfect answer.

386

That's a good secret.

387

Easy to do.

388

Yes, anyone can do 10 minutes.

389

Even tired people like me.

390

Even tired people like you.

391

Well, that's all the time we have for today.

392

That was so helpful, Judy.

393

Thank you.

394

You're welcome.

395

And thank you to everyone listening.

396

Yes, thank you all.

397

And give this episode a like.

398

It helps us a lot.

399

And share it with a friend who wants to speak English.

400

And we have a question for you today.

401

Yes, a question for our wonderful listeners.

402

Do you talk to yourself?

403

In English or in your language?

404

Tell us in the comments below.

405

We love reading your answers.

406

And remember, small sentences, every day, a little, that's enough.

407

Your brain is listening.

408

Your brain is learning.

409

See you next time.

410

Bye everyone.

411

Keep practicing your English.

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
