34
We love our listeners.
35
Okay.
36
Now let's start.
37
First, let me tell you the problem.
38
The big problem.
39
The problem?
40
What is the problem?
41
Many people listen to English podcasts.
42
They press play, they listen, but then they hear a word they do not know.
43
And they stop.
44
Yes, they stop.
45
They open a dictionary, they look for the word, and then they forget where they were in the episode.
46
That happens to me too.
47
I stop every two minutes.
48
And some people listen one time.
49
They do not understand everything, and they think, this is too hard.
50
I cannot do it.
51
I know that feeling.
52
You listen, you do not understand, and you feel bad.
53
But here's the thing.
54
That is the wrong way to use a podcast.
55
Today, I am going to show you the right way.
56
Five steps.
57
Very easy.
58
The right way.
59
I'm ready.
60
Tell me step one.
61
Step number one.
62
Just listen.
63
Just listen?
64
That is the step?
65
Just listen?
66
Yes the first time you listen to a podcast episode do
67
not stop do not pause do not open a dictionary just listen but what
68
if I do not understand a word that's okay keep listening
69
do not stop try to understand the general idea the big
70
picture the big picture yes the big picture means the main
71
topic what are they talking about are they happy are they
72
sad what is the subject you do not need every word you need the general idea so
73
if I listen to a podcast about food I just need
74
to know oh they're talking about food exactly you do not
75
need to understand every sentence just the topic the feeling the big idea
76
that feels much easier I always try to understand everything and then I get frustrated.
77
Frustrated means upset, angry at yourself, and that's very normal.
78
But step one says relax, just listen, enjoy the sound of English.
79
Enjoy the sound.
80
I like that.
81
Think of it like music.
82
The first time you hear a new song, do you understand every word?
83
No, I just enjoy the music i enjoy the sound english
84
is the same first enjoy the sound the words will come later
85
so step one is just listen do not stop understand the
86
big picture perfect you got it step number two read
87
and listen read
88
and listen at the same time yes the second time you listen play the same episode again
89
but this time turn on the subtitles subtitles like words on
90
the screen yes subtitles are the words you see at the
91
bottom of the video s u b t l e t s you hear the words
92
and you see the words at the same time oh
93
so I can read what they're saying while I listen exactly
94
and this is very powerful because sometimes you hear a word but you do not know how to spell it,
95
or you hear two words together and they sound like one word.
96
That happens to me.
97
I hear wanna, but the subtitle says want to.
98
Yes, want to becomes wanna when people speak fast.
99
Subtitles help you see the real words.
100
And if I see a new word, I can write it down.
101
Yes, you can write it in a notebook or you can write it on your phone.
102
When you see a new word, write it down.
103
That is how you grow your vocabulary vocabulary.
104
Vocabulary means all the words you know.
105
So step two is listen again with subtitles and write down new words.
106
That is right.
107
The first time, you listen for the big picture.
108
The second time, you listen for the details, the small things.
109
Big picture first, detail second.
110
That makes sense.
111
And here is something important.
112
On our podcast, Enjoy English Talks, we always explain new words so
113
when you hear a new word wait a moment I will explain it for you
114
that is true Judy explains everything I never need a dictionary
115
when I listen to our podcast that is why podcasts for learners are
116
so good we speak slowly we use simple words
117
and we explain everything step 2 listen
118
and write you subtitles write down new words i can do
119
that step number three repeat after us repeat after you you
120
mean say the same words yes this is called shadowing s
121
h a d o w i n g shadowing means you
122
listen to a sentence then you say the same sentence you
123
copy the speaker i copy you like a shadow exactly like a shadow.
124
A shadow follows you everywhere.
125
It copies your shape.
126
When you do shadowing, your voice follows my voice.
127
You copy my words, my speed, and my rhythm.
128
Rhythm.
129
Rhythm means the music of the sentence.
130
R -H -Y -T -H -M.
131
Some words are long.
132
Some words are short.
133
Some words are loud.
134
Some words are quiet.
135
That pattern is the rhythm.
136
So, I should not just say the words.
137
I should say them the same way you say them.
138
Yes.
139
The same speed, the same feeling.
140
Let me show you.
141
Listen to me.
142
I am happy to be here today.
143
I am happy to be here today.
144
Good.
145
But try to copy my rhythm.
146
Listen again.
147
I am happy to be here today.
148
I am happy to be here today much better did you hear the difference happy
149
and here are a little louder a little stronger yes I can feel it it feels more natural
150
when I copy your rhythm
151
that is the magic of shadowing your mouth learns how to
152
make English sounds your brain learns the rhythm of English but
153
when do I pause do I pause the video great question yes you can pause the video after one
154
or two sentences then repeat then press play again listen to
155
the next sentence pause repeat listen pause repeat listen pause repeat yes
156
and don't worry
157
if you sound funny at first everyone sounds funny at first
158
that's normal i always sound funny you sound wonderful jake
159
and the more you practice the more natural you'll sound step
160
three repeat after us shadowing copy the words the speed
161
and the rhythm you got it step number four make your
162
own sentences make my own sentences with what with the new
163
words from the podcast in step two you wrote down new
164
words now use those words make your own sentences oh so
165
if I learned the word frustrated today yes make a sentence with frustrated um i feel frustrated
166
when i cannot find my keys that is a perfect sentence
167
and now frustrated is your word not my word not the podcast's word your word
168
because you used it in your own life my word i like that idea
169
when i use a word in my own sentence i remember it better exactly that's how your brain works
170
When you just hear a word, you might forget it.
171
When you read a word, you might forget it.
172
But when you use a word in a sentence, you remember it.
173
Hear it, read it, use it.
174
Three steps for one word.
175
That is beautiful, Jake.
176
You just explained it perfectly.
177
And here's another tip.
178
You can write your sentence in the comments below our video.
179
In the comments?
180
Yes.
181
When you write a comment in English, you practice writing and other learners can see your sentence.
182
Maybe they learn from you too.
183
I can help other people.
184
That's cool.
185
You can.
186
And writing is also practicing.
187
Every sentence you write makes your English a little stronger.
188
Step four.
189
Make your own sentences.
190
Use new words in my own life and share them in the comments.
191
Perfect.
192
Step number five.
193
Build a habit.
194
Build a habit.
195
What is a habit?
196
A habit is something you do every day without thinking.
197
H -A -B -I -T.
198
You brush your teeth every day.
199
That's a habit.
200
You drink water every day.
201
That's a habit.
202
So, listening to a podcast should become a habit.
203
Yes.
204
The best way to learn English is to practice every day, not one hour on Saturday.
205
Fifteen minutes every day.
206
Fifteen minutes?
207
That is not a lot.
208
It is not a lot, but it is enough.
209
Fifteen minutes every day is better than two hours once a week.
210
Really?
211
Fifteen minutes is better than two hours yes
212
because your brain likes small regular practice every day your brain gets a little bit of english
213
and it remembers but if you wait one week your brain forgets
214
that explains a lot i used to study for three hours on sunday
215
and then nothing until next sunday
216
and by next sunday you forgot almost everything almost everything yes
217
that is exactly what happened
218
so here is my advice pick a time every day at
219
the same time maybe in the morning maybe after lunch maybe before bed
220
and listen to one episode of our podcast you do not
221
need to finish a whole episode in one day you can listen to 10 minutes
222
or 15 minutes the important thing is do it every day every day same time even just 15 minutes
223
and here is the beautiful thing you can listen
224
while you do other things other things like what you can listen
225
while you walk while you cook dinner while you clean your house
226
while you drive to work I can learn English
227
while I wash the dishes yes many of our listeners do this they put on their headphones they press play
228
and they listen to enjoy English talks while they do their daily activities.
229
That is so smart.
230
I do not need extra time.
231
I just add English to my normal day.
232
Exactly.
233
You do not need to sit at a desk.
234
You do not need a textbook.
235
Just press play and let English become part of your daily life.
236
Step 5.
237
Build a habit.
238
Listen every day, even 15 minutes.
239
And remember, do not be hard on yourself.
240
If you miss one day, that's okay just come back the next day come back the next day I can do
241
that now let me put all five steps together this is
242
your learning plan a complete plan I love plans day one
243
you find an episode maybe this one you press play you
244
listen one time just listen that's step one just listen get the big picture.
245
Day two, you listen to the same episode again.
246
This time, you turn on subtitles.
247
You read and listen.
248
You write down new words.
249
That's step two.
250
Read and listen.
251
Write down new words.
252
Day three, you listen again, but this time you pause after each sentence and you repeat.
253
You copy the speaker.
254
That's step three, shadowing.
255
Listen, pause, repeat.
256
Shadowing.
257
Day four, you take your new words and you make your own sentences.
258
You write them down or you share them in the comments.
259
That's step four.
260
Make my own sentences.
261
Use the words in my life.
262
And every day you do this.
263
You build a habit.
264
That's step five.
265
So I can use one episode for three or four days?
266
Yes.
267
One episode has so much to learn.
268
You do not need a new episode every day.
269
Use one episode for three or four days listen read repeat practice i never thought about
270
that i always listened one time
271
and then moved to the next episode many people do that
272
but the secret is go deeper not faster one episode many
273
times that's how you really learn go deeper not faster that's a great tip
274
and after three or four days you move to a new episode
275
and you start the five steps again five steps same steps new episode over
276
and over over and over
277
and every week your english gets a little better a little
278
stronger a little more natural i'm excited to try this starting today.
279
Starting today.
280
That's the spirit, Jake.
281
Okay, let's review.
282
Yes, let's see what we learned.
283

284

285

Shadowing.

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.
