Welcome to the Effortless English Show with the world's number one English teacher, AJ Hoag.
2
Where AJ's more than 40 million students worldwide finally learn English once and for all, without the boring textbooks, classrooms, and grammar drills.
3
Here's AJ with a quick piece to help you learn to speak fluent English effortlessly.
4
Hi, I'm AJ Hoag, the author of Effortless English.
5
Learn to speak English like a native.
6
Now, maybe you have bad pronunciation.
7
And when you have bad pronunciation, you often feel embarrassed when you speak English.
8
You often feel foolish because people don't understand you.
9
Right?
10
When people give you this face, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, right?
11
They look annoyed.
12
They look frustrated.
13
They look confused when you speak English.
14
Because your pronunciation is not good.
15
And this will affect your life.
16
It makes travel more difficult.
17
It makes your job more difficult.
18
IELTS, TOEFL more difficult.
19
Everything is more difficult when your pronunciation is bad.
20
On the other hand, when your pronunciation is good, everything is much easier.
21
People understand you instantly.
22
I think more important than that, they respect you instantly.
23
They will not see you as an English learner.
24
They will not see you as someone who's annoying them, who's bothering them.
25
They'll just treat you normally like they would any other native speaker.
26
And that's great.
27
Now in a work situation, it's even better because you get that respect immediately when you have great pronunciation
28
From your co -workers from clients from bosses from everybody
29
It's it's powerful and of course on IELTS on TOEFL and anything else like that
30
Man when your pronunciation is great you get a high score
31
It's just it's simple as
32
that they're going to give you a very high score on the speaking part when your pronunciation is great.
33
And that's what I made my new Effortless English Pronunciation Course for.
34
Train you.
35
Not just teach you, not just tell you.
36
Train you day by day to speak with a perfect American accent.
37
Now in the last video, I told you the importance of ear training.
38
That we need to think like musicians,
39
especially jazz musicians, and learn to hear the music of English and hear it very,
40
very clearly, including all those little small sounds that make your accent perfect.
41
You've got to hear them first.
42
If you can't hear them, you can't do them.
43
Well, that's just step one, though, of the training process.
44
Next, a really good technique.
45
This is a training technique.
46
Again, a lot of pronunciation courses, all the ones I found, they kind of teach you.
47
They'll show you the mouth movements, you know, put your tongue here and move your mouth like this.
48
That's okay.
49
I teach you that also.
50
I have videos in my pronunciation course.
51
Every unit has a video.
52
I teach you how to make the sounds.
53
But that's not enough.
54
You have to do more than that.
55
You have to train it.
56
You have to practice it day after day and you have to do it in an effective way.
57
And that's what makes this course powerful.
58
So let me give you one technique.
59
It's simple.
60
It's obvious.
61
It's simply pause and imitate.
62
Pause and imitate.
63
This is obvious but you have to do it in a very specific way.
64
A lot of people do this but they do it wrong.
65
They do it incorrectly.
66
Now what do you do?
67
You take a short audio, short audio from a native speaker, very important, choose a native speaker.
68
Anything from me is fine.
69
You can use one of my free YouTube videos.
70
The good thing is I have a very, very clear standard American accent.
71
A lot of people say, AJ, you're so easy to understand.
72
Well, one reason is I have a very, very clear, common, standard American accent.
73
It's the accent you hear in movies and TV all the time.
74
You're used to it.
75
It's the most easy to understand accent in the world.
76
That's good for you.
77
So you find an audio with a good clear accent.
78
And then you simply play a sentence.
79
Listen carefully.
80
Pause.
81
Then you say the sentence.
82
Try to say it the same as the speaker.
83
That seems obvious, but here's the important part.
84
You have to exaggerate your pronunciation.
85
What do I mean by that?
86
What I mean is this.
87
You'll hear the speaker say something.
88
For example, my name is AJ.
89
You listen to that.
90
My name is AJ.
91
And then you pause.
92
Now it's your turn.
93
Most people do this.
94
They just say, my name is AJ.
95
They think they're imitating.
96
They think they're doing the same as the audio.
97
But really they're not.
98
The energy is different.
99
The feeling is different.
100
And of course, the actual accent is different.
101
What you need to do is you have to try to do everything too much.
102
You have to try to copy the speaker, but then do even more.
103
Do the accent, the American accent you hear.
104
Do it super strongly.
105
Pretend you're a comedian and you're trying to make fun of the accent.
106
You're doing it to sound funny, so you're doing it super, super, super strongly, extra strongly.
107
See, the problem is you think you're doing the accent, but you're really not.
108
It's too soft.
109
It's not enough.
110
When you exaggerate, you will feel you're doing it too much.
111
You'll feel like, oh, this is ridiculous.
112
This is crazy.
113
I'm doing it too strongly.
114
But the truth is you'll sound just normal your accent will just sound good.
115
It's strange, it's some kind of weird psychology, maybe because you feel embarrassed, but you have to do it much much more than you think.
116
You have to really exaggerate.
117
So you hear the audio, you hear, hi my name is AJ.
118
Pause.
119
Then you do it, you imitate.
120
You have to do it ten times bigger.
121
So you say, hi my name is AJ.
122
You'll feel like you're doing that.
123
You'll feel like you're doing it way too strong.
124
But in fact, you're teaching your brain to use exactly the correct pronunciation.
125
You think you're doing it too strong, I promise you, you're not.
126
You're not doing it too much.
127
So you gotta really over exaggerate, overdo the American accent you hear.
128
Make it too, too, too strong.
129
And you do it every sentence.
130
Play the next sentence.
131
Pause.
132
Imitate and super exaggerate.
133
Play the next sentence.
134
Pause.
135
Imitate and super exaggerate.
136
The super exaggeration, that's the powerful part.
137
Okay.
138
Another technique. Do that.
139
Do that for one day.
140
Next day you can do a different technique or you can do
141
that every day and then do this next technique also every day.
142
Now in my course I give you an exact schedule to follow
143
but if you're doing this at home just by yourself you can use any schedule you want.
144
Alright the next technique, the next technique for improving your pronunciation.
145
Find the text for your audio.
146
Right, get a transcript, the text, subtitles, anything just so you can read it.
147
Now first you're going to listen to it, then you're going to pause and imitate and exaggerate, pause and imitate and exaggerate do
148
that a lot then next what you'll do turn off the audio off
149
you're going to read the text out loud with a nice strong loud voice
150
you're going to read it you've been listening to it
151
so you know the correct sounds so read it with a nice strong loud voice
152
and record yourself this might be a little painful I'm sorry to say,
153
but it's a powerful technique that will help you improve a lot.
154
Record yourself.
155
Read the whole thing.
156
Maybe one paragraph, you know, one minute.
157
It doesn't matter.
158
Read it aloud with a strong voice.
159
Record it.
160
Then stop.
161
Play your audio.
162
Play your recording.
163
Listen to it very carefully.
164
Listening especially to the pronunciation, to that music of English.
165
Listen very carefully.
166
Next, listen to the original audio, the native speaker, listening carefully.
167
Compare the two.
168
How is your pronunciation different than the original?
169
And it probably will be quite different.
170
It probably will be very different.
171
This is why it might feel a little painful because suddenly you will realize, Oh my God, my accent is horrible.
172
Oh my god, my pronunciation is terrible.
173
I don't sound like the speaker at all.
174
See when you just do it in your head, you're just practicing.
175
You maybe you think you sound really good, but when you record it, the truth is hard to avoid.
176
When you record it and then you play it and then you compare, play yours.
177
Play the original.
178
Play yours again.
179
Play the original again.
180
Do that a few times, listening carefully.
181
Try to find the differences.
182
There will be a lot of differences in the beginning.
183
This is good for you, though.
184
This will start training your ears to hear the difference, right?
185
You'll hear, oh, wow, my R's sound really bad, and they're not like the speaker's R's.
186
Or my rhythm is weird.
187
My rhythm is totally different than the speaker's rhythm.
188
You'll start to notice your own personal problems with pronunciation.
189
And this will help you improve.
190
Just by doing this a lot, recording yourself and comparing, you can do it every day, just that will help you improve your pronunciation a lot,
191
a lot, a lot.
192
It's a very, very powerful technique.
193
Especially when you combine it, when you do it with the imitate and exaggerate technique.
194
Do both those techniques and you're going to see a lot of improvement in your pronunciation.
195
Okay, in my next video, I'm actually going to do a live webinar, a live video, live stream video.
196
I'm going to answer your questions.
197

- Registrati e confronta con l’originale, facendo attenzione a parole come pronunciation, accent, technique.
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.
