Welcome back to the shadowing practice series.
2
If you haven't watched my video shadowing English practice how to do it properly, I recommend checking it out first.
3
You'll find the link in the top right corner.
4
In that video I explain how the shadowing method works, how to organize your practice so you can see real progress.
5
Today's video is the practice session.
6
This exercise will take about 10 minutes and the goal is to help you build fluency step by step.
7
Here's how we'll practice today.
8
First, you listen carefully to the text.
9
Second, you'll repeat sentences and short chunks with pauses.
10
Third, you'll shadow together with me at a natural speed.
11
And finally, you'll personalize the ideas and talk about your own life using the same patterns.
12
That's how you move from simply repeating English to speaking more naturally.
13
And remember, shadowing works best when you practice consistently.
14
I recommend repeating this video every day for a few days or even longer.
15
Practice sit as many times as you need until you feel comfortable and confident talking about this topic.
16
Repetition builds fluency.
17
Let's begin.
18
Today we're talking about personal growth and learning.
19
Before you start speaking, take a moment to simply listen.
20
Listen to the text once or even twice, shadowing works best when you understand what you are saying.
21
If you only repeat sounds without understanding them, it doesn't really help.
22
So first, make sure the message is clear to you.
23
There is no need to rush.
24
If you need extra support, you can turn on subtitles to check your understanding.
25
When you feel ready, we'll move on to the speaking part.
26
Get ready to listen.
27
I enjoy learning new things.
28
For me, learning is not only about gaining knowledge, it's also about growing as a person.
29
Every time you learn something new, you start seeing the world a little differently.
30
You notice things you didn't notice before.
31
You understand ideas, more deeply and slowly your confidence grows.
32
One of the reasons I started learning English in the first place was because I wanted access to more global knowledge.
33
English opens the door to a huge amount of information.
34
If you know English, you can read books from different countries,
35
watch documentaries, listen to podcasts and explore ideas from all over the world.
36
A lot of online information today is in English.
37
Many books, articles and research papers are written in English or translated into English.
38
For me, learning English was a way to expand my understanding of the world,
39
but it was also a way to understand myself better.
40
That's where personal growth comes in.
41
I like to think of personal growth as developing different areas of life.
42
Mental, emotional, physical, social and spiritual growth as well as financial and professional growth.
43
Mental growth means learning new ideas, reading books and exploring different topics.
44
Emotional growth means understanding my feelings better and becoming more aware of how I react to situations.
45
Physical growth is about taking care of my body, moving, exercising and building healthy habits.
46
Spiritual growth for me is about reflection, it's about understanding my values,
47
thinking about what truly matters and trying to live in a balanced way.
48
It also means practicing mindfulness,
49
being present, paying attention to my thoughts and emotions and staying aware of the moment.
50
I'm also interested in understanding myself better, who I am, what my purpose might be.
51
Sometimes I ask questions like how can we live in a more balanced way, How can we stay calm even when life feels busy?
52
Thinking about these questions helps me grow and become more aware of myself and the world around me.
53
There's also financial and professional growth.
54
This can mean learning more about money, improving your career, building useful skills for work, or developing a business.
55
It can also mean learning how to create a healthy work -life balance,
56
doing meaningful work while still having time for family and rest.
57
When you think about growth this way, you realize that learning happens everywhere, not only in books and classrooms,
58
it happens in conversations, experiences, challenges, and even mistakes.
59
Mistakes are actually an important part of learning.
60
Every mistake shows you something.
61
It shows you where you can improve and what you can try different next time.
62
Learning takes time.
63
Sometimes progress feels slow.
64
But when you look back, you realize how much you've grown.
65
Another important part of learning is curiosity.
66
Curiosity makes learning enjoyable.
67
There are always new ideas to explore and new skills to develop.
68
I think that I will never run out of things to learn in my lifetime.
69
That's how much knowledge, I believe, exists in this world.
70
There are so many ideas, skills, and perspectives to explore.
71
Every time you learn something new, you expand your world.
72
Every time you practice, you invest in yourself.
73
And over time, those small steps become a powerful journey of personal growth.
74
Now we'll practice step by step.

80
Then press play and continue to the next sentence.
81
If you need extra help, you can turn on subtitles to make sure you understand everything clearly.
82
And when you repeat, try not to focus only on the individual words.
83
Pay attention to the stress, how the sounds link together, and the natural reason of the sentence.

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.
