Pratica di Shadowing: IELTS Speaking Test- Perfect Band 9 - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

- Let's talk about music.

How often do you listen to music?

- I think I listen to music mostly when I'm driving.

I think it puts me in such a good mood

when I'm like out there on a drive and I play my favorite music.

I'm usually into Afro music a lot, hip hop and Afro and R &B.

So I prefer listening to music when I'm driving or sometimes when I'm working out, I'm at the gym, something like that.

- Is music an important subject?

in schools in your country in schools in my country.

It is because you know I'm from India so in India music

and dance and expressing our emotions is usually through music

and dancing so in every school they teach classical music or they have a subject where there is something about music usually.

So I think it is important.

Do you ever go to live concerts?

Oh, I've been to three concerts and three of them are my favorite artists.

And it was actually on my wish list and I made it happen.

And it was one of the best experiences.

And in live concerts, it's a lot different than you would imagine.

Just have to keep your energy.

straight and it's like you can't believe it's happening.

Now let's talk about magazines and newspapers.

Do you prefer to read magazines or newspapers?

Definitely magazines, mostly on topics of fashion or interior design.

This is what I really like because I like to see creative sides from all over the world.

I like to see what people are talking about, what's new and what's trending of like,

what is this called what is that called because usually

when you see pictures you don't usually know what it's called

so when you read a magazine

or you get the knowledge that's that's where you get to know oh this fabric is called this

or this uh decoration is called that so i think it's very good on information.

- Do you think you can learn as much from a magazine as a book?

- Definitely not, 'cause magazine is like a shorter version of what's in a book.

So I definitely prefer books over magazines.

- Do you think that you will continue to read paper -based magazines in the future?

I think I'm very old -fashioned like that.

I need to have a physical book in my hand and that's how I think it produces serotonin in my brain.

Otherwise, no. Digital, it's very different.

I like physically reading a magazine or a book.

Now let's talk about outdoor activities.

Do you like being outdoors?

I love being outdoors.

I must stay outdoors.

I'm not a very like home based person.

Like I can't stay home much.

I have to keep moving all the time.

Which outdoor sports do you enjoy doing?

- I like going out with my friends and playing football or some kind of activity like swimming.

going to the beach.

This is something I really, really enjoy.

Which outdoor activities are most popular in your country?

Definitely.

It's like the game of India.

Everybody loves cricket.

When you go out of your house, you're always going to see like some kids playing basketball.

or also badminton actually.

People enjoy that a lot as well.

I'd like to describe my favorite actor and actress.

So my favorite actor will be Benedict Cumberbatch and my favorite actress is Angelina Jolie and I like their movies so much.

They usually star in action films or mystery films and that's very similar to where I am like in my personal life.

I love mysterious stuff.

I'm like always into like detective theories or mystery books and stuff like that.

So I always watch movies as such and their acting is on point, it's always number one.

And I like Angelina Jolie also for her humanitarian work that she does throughout her life.

She's been very present with charity work and making sure that

a lot of kids are fed in countries which are unfortunate

and I really like that about her

and I also like how fierce she is and

when she presents herself it's very divine feminine so I really really like

that and I feel like she has that sort of energy where

a woman can feel powerful about herself just by looking at her and kind of understanding where she comes from.

She doesn't really come from a very mentally stable place, but now at this point in her life, she's a very like strong woman and she's done it all herself.

And Benedict Cumberbatch, I actually watched his TV show, which was called Sherlock, and I am a crazy Sherlock fan.

I love mystery, like I said.

And detective stories and everything.

And him playing that really showed me what kind of an incredible actor he is, because I felt like I'm watching Sherlock Holmes from the books and not an actor on screen.

And he's also done a movie that I really love,

it's called Doctor Strange, that's my favorite superhero from the Avengers and he has just done an amazing job in that movie.

So we've been talking about a famous actress and actor

that you enjoy and we're going to continue to talk about movies and theater.

What are the most popular types of movies in your country?

It would be...

To thank you for watching this video I want to give you a free course

that has helped thousands of students improve their IELTS speaking score.

What for part one, part two and part three,

and also allow you to practice at home for free and get feedback.

To sign up for that for free, all you have to do is just click the link in the description.

Thanks very much.

And let's get back to the video.

It would be action.

and drama definitely something that has to do with emotional connection it's usually fictional,

that I would say. and also comedy.

Yeah, there's a lot of comedy that goes on in the films that are coming out now from India.

Do you think that going to the cinema will be as popular in the future?

I think 50 -50.

I'm not sure about that, but it looks like people enjoy watching movies at home.

And it's not as much exciting as it used to be back then. And...

I think probably yes, it would be more digitally available at home and probably, yeah.

Now let's talk about the theatre.

How strong a tradition is it today in your country to go to the theater?

100

Mostly, I think, in out -of -city areas, actually.

101

It's mostly now as an activity that families go to with their kids,

102

just to show a play to their kids and to introduce them to this form of...

103

culture and activity.

104

I think it's more of that now.

105

Theatres are not as much popularised back in India, as much as cinema and film and movies are.

106

So I think that is kind of on the back seat.

107

It's not so much as it used to be.

108

Do you think that theatres should be run as a business or as a public service?

109

I think both.

110

I think it goes hand in hand.

111

so that people can be employed as well at the same time.

112

And, um, it, it is of a public service at the same time.

113

I think, um, I think that people do enjoy it, but at the same time,

114

it could be used as an as an excuse and used as like,

115

um, an opportunity is what I mean, to employ people.

116

And because there's a lot of people who would love to do acting, but they can't really make it in the movies.

117

So maybe they could use theater as as their hobby.

118

So I think, yeah, both can go hand in hand.

119

In some countries, governments pay theatres to put on shows for the public.

120

Do you think this is a good use of public money?

121

It depends on

122

if whether or not if it's free to the public because

123

if you're charging for them to see that play then it doesn't make any sense.

124

is what I think.

125

And I think that

126

it shouldn't be this way in the first place i think it should be available freely to the people

127

- Let me give you some feedback on your performance.

128

So you're hoping to get a band nine.

129

I'll go through the four marking criteria.

130

So pronunciation, fluency and coherence, grammar and vocabulary.

131

So let's start off with your pronunciation.

132

To thank you for making it this far in the video, I want to give you 10 % off our VIP course.

140

141

If not, enjoy the rest of this free video.

142

- Pronunciation is one of your strong points.

143

- Oh, okay.

144

- The examiner will be thinking, can I understand what this person is saying?

145

How clear are they?

146

And then some higher level pronunciation features like intonation, for example.

147

percent of what you're saying.

148

You do have a hint of an accent but it is extremely clear listening to you.

149

For anyone watching who has an Indian accent they shouldn't feel bad about it or anything like that.

150

You shouldn't try and remove your accent.

151

I think it's about speaking as clearly as possible but you certainly do.

152

You also use intonation extremely well.

153

So we use intonation to convey meaning.

154

For example when you came in here today and I said please sit down.

155

Very flat intonation going down.

156

Do I sound happy or rude or serious?

157

A bit rude.

158

Yeah, a bit rude, a bit serious.

159

But if I said, please sit down, my intonation is going up.

160

It sounds completely different, but the words are exactly the same.

161

So you use intonation like that a lot to show that you're excited about something, that you're happy about it, that you're serious about something in a very,

162

very high level way, which is very difficult to learn.

163

And you do it very naturally.

164

You also use connected speech.

165

if you were talking about movies someone learning English might say do you want to go to the cinema

166

but someone at a high level like yourself do you want

167

to go want to go sounds like one word want to go

168

because you're connecting all the speech up you do that a lot

169

and very naturally you also use um sentence stress which where you emphasize certain words that's your coffee so you're

170

It's very difficult to teach that.

171

It takes a long time to learn.

172

Wow.

173

You're doing very well in that area.

174

"are you able to speak without unnatural pauses,

175

"without unnatural hesitation?" And there's two reasons why people pause and that type of thing,

176

audible pauses like that.

177

One reason is, They're learning a language and they're trying to think, "Should I use present simple or present perfect?" Or,

178

you know, "What's the correct adjective to use?" You don't do that because your language is at quite a high level.

179

You do sometimes...

180

pause and think and hesitate a little bit for the second reason, which is trying to think of ideas.

181

So you can tell, especially in part three, you were formulating ideas and you were let me think about that and pausing a little bit, but that's natural.

182

And a good examiner knows the difference between those two things.

183

So they're not going to give you a low mark for pausing or hesitating a little bit.

184

for thinking of the idea.

185

Now coherence is different, it's did you answer the question and did you develop your answers a little bit more.

186

You need to be a little bit careful, for example the first question I asked you, how often do you listen to music?

187

And you told me about when you listen to music.

188

So that's slightly different.

189

Now the examiner will base their score on all of your answers.

190

It's not like, "Oh, she didn't, she slightly didn't answer that question in one, in one question.

191

Give her a low score." That's not how it works.

192

And the way that you answered that question by saying, "I listen to music in the car and I listen to it in the,

193

I think you said, when I drive." You're answering the question.

194

implicitly By implication, I know how often you listen to it.

195

You should try to answer each question explicitly.

196

How often do you?

197

Every day.

198

I don't think that this is an issue for you today, but imagine you go and do the test.

199

Imagine you have a Canadian visa application.

200

I was like, if I don't get this, I'm going to, I can't go and meet, you know, my family or, or, you know, or I can't do whatever I want to do.

201

there's a lot of pressure on you.

202

So often when people are under pressure and under stress, they mess up.

203

Just make sure that you answer every question exactly how they want it.

204

The same with the cue card for part two.

205

It said, describe your favorite actor or actress.

206

And you did both.

207

So technically, an examiner would be extremely picky.

208

if they marked you down for that.

209

But again, I'm not criticizing you, but I'm being overly cautious because on exam day, if you go and do the test,

210

you might go off and talk about something related to that topic, but not really answering it correctly.

211

I think you would be fine, but we just don't want to take any risks.

212

Definitely.

213

Towards the end, especially the last question, part three, what the examiner is thinking about is can this person really develop their answers?

214

Can they speak at length about topics?

215

The last question is quite a short answer for part three, but that was quite impressive.

216

I'll tell you why. in part three.

217

"You should be happy because the examiner thinks you're good.

218

"If the examiner thinks you're bad, "they'll just throw easy softball questions at you.

219

"If the examiner thinks that you're really good, "they'll throw more and more difficult questions

220

"to really just stretch you and test you." And that's what I was trying to do at the end.

221

A really good band eight, band nine student Even if they get a question that they don't know much about, they're not too sure about, they will attempt an answer.

222

So your attempt at an answer, even though it was quite short, indicates that you are at a very high level.

223

Coherence is the only area that I'm really, really concerned about.

224

But overall, it's very, very good.

225

I'm focusing on the negative, but it's only because you're...

226

You should, because otherwise how would I know?

227

Yeah.

228

Grammar, the examiner will be thinking, does this person have enough awareness of grammar structures that they can talk about anything?

229

Like, can they use comparatives to compare two things?

230

Can they use superlatives to talk about their favorite things and talk about the best things?

231

Whatever I throw at you, you're able to handle that.

232

And they'll also then think about how many grammar mistakes are you making? making.

233

I think I only heard one or two small slips, I think like a preposition slip or an article slip, but that is comparable to a native English speaker.

234

If you listen to native English speakers speak for 15 -20 minutes, they'll make little preposition errors or subject -verb agreement errors.

235

That's natural, so don't need to worry about that.

236

And your vocabulary is also excellent.

237

For example, this, you use very topic -specific words in idiomatic language, which is great, high level students actually do that

238

so your final band score would be the highest one

239

which is about 9 thank you so much yeah that's amazing

240

but but but I if on test day you didn't answer the questions in part one,

241

you didn't really answer the question in part two, and you didn't develop your answers enough in part three, that would drop you down a little bit.

242

Not hugely, but just be careful with that.

243

All right.

244

Less than one percent of people get a bad line.

245

Yeah.

246

So there you go.

247

- Well done.

248

- Thank you.

La grammatica di questo video

Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:

Struttura	Nel video
“Used to” used to + verbo — un’abitudine o uno stato passato che non è più vero	used to be
Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa	is called · are fed · was called
Frasi relative who / which + frase — un’informazione in più su una persona o una cosa	countries which are · show, which was · people who would
Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso	I've been · She's been · has just done

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
