1
So is it possible to be fluent in a language by yourself?
2
Let's answer that question here
3
So if you're really motivated to learn a language learning the basics of a language is completely Possible to do by yourself.
4
This is why whenever I start to learn a new language from zero I usually just rely on the internet
5
and my Google searching abilities to get started
6
This is because a lot of basic stuff in a language is just
7
so widely available on the internet that you can just really get for free.
8
So in the beginning, I prefer not to be too troubled with looking for other people
9
or looking for a teacher to teach me the basic stuff.
10
Because a lot of times I can teach myself the basic stuff.
11
So even with speaking skills,
12
as a beginner, I can do that by myself.
13
I can talk to myself in the mirror or I can record myself,
14
I can mimic native speakers that I see from videos or something.
15
So as a beginner, starting to learn a language by yourself is actually quite possible.
16
However, comes a time where you actually do need to rely on other people to get your language to the next level.
17
Because the thing is, the goal of learning a language is to be able to communicate, right?
18
And usually, you know, normally when you communicate,
19
you need at least two people for communication to happen.
20
Although not always.
21
Now that in the YouTube era,
22
I'm actually communicating with you guys,
23
but in reality, I'm just talking to myself and to an inanimate object camera here But in a way,
24
you know what I mean.
25
So yes, eventually you do need to rely on other people to get better
26
Especially when it comes to building your confidence in your speaking abilities
27
If your end goal is to be able to speak confidently with native speakers
28
Then you cannot really rely on yourself to build that confidence Because confidence is built by doing that thing repeatedly
29
So in order to get good at speaking with native speakers,
30
then you're gonna have to speak with native speakers repeatedly And of course this way,
31
you cannot really do it alone And then this way,
32
then you would either have to go look for a tutor
33
or to find a language partner or something like that So learning a language alone is completely possible
34
up until a point where you have to build your speaking confidence talking to real people.
35
If your goal is to talk to real people,
36
then you're going to need real people to speak with.
37
So in my premium coaching program ESA made for intermediate learners,
38
I actually talked about the different levels of speaking confidence for language learners.
39
So by the way, if you guys fit this criteria,
40
I welcome you guys to apply for the program.
41
I think the next batch will start in August
42
So I encourage you to apply as soon as you can
43
Because I have a lot of people applying and it's just a little overwhelming
44
So do apply here while you can
45
if you're interested Check out the website here
46
and let's get back to the video So I came up with this concept of different levels of speaking confidence.
47
So when it comes to developing your speaking confidence,
48
there is this thing called low-pressure environment and high-pressure environment.
49
So low-pressure environment in which you can practice your speaking skills include having inner dialogues with yourself,
50
or speaking to yourself out loud.
51
And then next level is to record yourself in a camera like this
52
because it adds a bit more pressure So a level above
53
that is actually talking to other learners of English
54
or other target languages that you're learning
55
because then it gives you a bit more pressure to talk to other people
56
But at least you can take comfort in the fact
57
that they're also learning So they kind of understand where you're coming from
58
and your nervousness in speaking in your target language or in English
59
So speaking with other language learners is actually a good place to start
60
if you want to slowly build your confidence to speak your target language with other people
61
So a level beyond that is to speak with fluent non-natives
62
So that would be kind of like me I'm a non-native English speaker,
63
but I am fluent So if you are learning English
64
and then you feel quite comfortable speaking with other English learners Then next level to
65
that would be speaking with someone like me who is not really a native speaker,
66
but you feel more comfortable speaking with me because you know that I have been through the process of learning English,
67
so I kind of understand where you're coming from and my accent
68
and my language is a lot easier to understand
69
so it's definitely a little bit more challenging than speaking with other language learners to speak with someone like me,
70
a fluent non-native speaker.
71
Then the next level, the highest level there is,
72
is to be able to speak with native speakers.
73
So I would say this is the highest pressure environment that you can put yourself in to really build your confidence.
74
Of course, speaking with native speakers makes you feel a little bit more nervous, right?
75
Because you're also a bit afraid
76
that you won't be able to catch everything they say or they won't be able to understand your accent,
77
yada yada yada.
78
That's why it's high pressure.
79
So of course, as a beginner,
80
when you're just starting out,
81
it's a good idea to start small first.
82
Having inner dialogues in English,
83
speaking to yourself, speaking with a camera or whatever by yourself because it's the lowest pressure environment.
84
These things you can do by yourself.
85
However, if your goal is to build your confidence to speak with others,
86
then you're gonna have to slowly level up by speaking with other learners,
87
with fluent non-natives, and with native speaker.
88
And these things you cannot do alone.
89
You're gonna have to find another person,
90
be it a tutor or a language partner, to build that confidence.
91
So, short answer to my video is
92
that you can definitely become fluent in your language without having to rely on other people,
93
but only to a certain level.
94
So, I hope that helps guys.
95
I hope that this clarifies a lot of your doubts,
96
and I hope you guys learned something new.
97
If you guys like it,
98
give it a thumbs up,
99
and I will see you next week in another video.
100
Until then, goodbye and take care.
101
Bye.

Affronteremo l'importanza della comunicazione e come interagire con madrelingua possa elevare le tue abilità di parlare in modo sicuro. Attraverso la pratica di conversazione in inglese e l'utilizzo della tecnica del shadow speak, potrai migliorare notevolmente la tua fluidità.

Consigli per la pratica

Per massimizzare i tuoi progressi nell'apprendimento dell'inglese, è consigliabile utilizzare la tecnica del shadowing in inglese. Inizia ascoltando frasi e brevi dialoghi a un ritmo che ti consenta di seguire facilmente. Parla ad alta voce e cerca di imitare l’intonazione e il ritmo dei madrelingua. Questo non solo migliorerà la tua pronuncia, ma ti aiuterà anche a costruire la tua confidenza.

Ricorda che puoi anche registrarti mentre pratichi. Ascoltare te stesso ti permetterà di identificare le aree che necessitano di miglioramenti. Non dimenticare di avvalerti di imparare l'inglese con youtube per trovare video pertinenti che ti piacciono, assicurando così che la tua esperienza di apprendimento rimanga divertente e coinvolgente.

Infine, prova a creare dialoghi interni mentre fai attività quotidiane; sarà un ottimo modo per esercitarti senza la pressione di un pubblico. Con il tempo e la pratica costante di shadowspeaks, noterai un significativo miglioramento nella tua fluidità e capacità di comunicazione.

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.
