シャドーイング練習: 3 Simple Steps to Become Fluent in English - 動画で英語スピーキングを学ぶ

Teacher, how do I become a confident speaker of English?

Well, to attain communicative competence, you should engage in a tripartite pedagogical framework.

First, engage in contextual input processing by...

Excuse me, teacher, please, in simple English?

Oh, well, just follow a simple three-step system.

Let me get Keith to show you.

Hello, it's Keith from the Keith Speaking Academy and the YouTube channel, English Speaking Success, here to help you become a more confident speaker of English.

Now, students ask some great questions like, Keith, how can I improve my English speaking?

How can I become more confident?

Well, it's a great question.

But sometimes teachers give rather long and confusing answers to this, right?

And sometimes that leaves the student frustrated and they then waste more time trying to look for a better answer.

So today, as I always try to do, I want to give you a really simple answer to this question.

How do I become a confident speaker of English?

And the answer is a simple, proven, three-step system that will transform your English speaking.

And it's a system that is at the heart of my gold course.

And in fact, it's the system I follow for all of my courses, really, because it just works.

Now, I think many teachers of you will know the theory behind this, but I just wanted to simplify it to make it really simple

so that students like you understand and can implement and follow it.

I call this the speaking success system, and I'm sure it will help you become a more confident speaker of English.

Now, some of you who are very clever and maybe follow my courses will say, hang on, Keith, speaking success system has four steps.

It used to, but I've simplified it to make it even easier to follow and easier for students to understand.

Because of course, with simplicity comes comes what?

Fluency?

Confidence?

I'm not sure.

But simplicity, I think, makes it easier to follow.

So here is the system, right?

Step one, discover.

Step two, practice.

Step three, review.

Simple as that.

Let's go into a bit more detail.

So the first step to becoming a better speaker and learning new language is to find new language.

Part of the problem I have here in Spain with my Spanish is that I say the same things day after day.

I keep using the same words.

I'm not really discovering any new language.

So that's the first step.

You have to discover language.

You can do that by listening or by reading.

You can listen to podcasts, radio, TV shows, read books, articles, whatever it is.

But discover the language.

I say discover because it is a bit like being a hunter or a pirate.

You want that sense of curiosity,

that you want to look for things that are interesting and that you can steal and take and make your language.

So discover the language.

A key part of this is learning in context, because when you listen to something or read it, you see the language in context.

That's so important.

A, because it's easier to get the meaning in context.

And B, you can see or hear how to use it.

So it's easier to use in the future.

Step one, discover the language.

In the Gold course, the text

that we use is we use model answers to discover the language because that's what IELTS students are focused on.

In some courses, I actually use stories or listening activities.

In my live lessons, I use listening activities to discover the language.

Let's move on.

Step number two is practice.

Now, if you want to become a confident speaker, you have to practice speaking.

Full stop.

Otherwise, you're going to spend years learning vocabulary and the grammar rules, but you still can't speak.

So, practice is important.

There are two ways to practice, either on your own, great, or with other people, even better.

Okay.

How do you actually do that though?

I mean, how do you practice, for example, on your own with all the grammar and vocabulary that you have discovered, right?

Well, I've made a video all about that.

There are three simple steps to follow.

You can have a look up here, go later.

Basically, it goes from controlled practice, kind of repeating, to semi-controlled, to repeating and changing, to free practice, conversation.

Controlled, semi-controlled, free.

Different ways of practicing.

In my gold course, we have special videos where I talk you through different ways of practicing on your own,

from repeating words, to repeating chunks or phrases, to changing a word, to changing the tense,

using synonyms, antonyms, substitutes, all sorts of different ways of doing it.

And you can do that on your own, super flexible.

There's also the opportunity to speak to other people.

So we have online speaking practice rooms where with two or three other students,

students around the world, you get to practice speaking different topics and IELTS questions.

It's all in the practice.

So you're activating the language you have discovered.

Let's move on.

Okay, step three is to review.

And this is super important because we know from research, basically, that if you don't review within a day,

you're going to forget about 70% of everything you've learned.

And over the next few days, you need to review again to make sure you're not forgetting everything.

This is often why people forget because they're not reviewing.

Okay.

Now, you can review by rereading the same text you've studied,

re-watching the same video, reviewing the same PDF lesson notes that you've studied.

All of that is good, but it's probably not enough because what you need to do is see the language in different contexts.

So if you've read a text about the environment, you need to read a different text about the environment where some of

that same language will come up or watch a different video on the same topic

or listen to a story on the same topic where some of the words will come up again.

nowadays what's really good with AI ChatGPT is you can get it to create your own story

or your own text or news article based on that vocabulary

so if you've learned these 10 words put them into ChatGPT ask it to give you a news article

and there is a new context reviewing those words perfect dead

easy in my courses in particular the gold course we review with quizzes is a nice way to review.

100

So testing yourself is reviewing, reading stories, listening to the course again, but maybe on a podcast.

101

So all of the courses have a private podcast.

102

You can actually listen to it again, which is great.

103

We also have the practice rooms, the speaking practice rooms.

104

What a lot of people don't realise is that by practising again, you are also reviewing.

105

So practicing is a way of reviewing as well, right?

106

Lots of ways to review, but it's really, really important.

107

You do it on a regular basis.

108

Now, don't be confused that you're going to review exactly the same words.

109

That doesn't always happen.

110

They come up at different points in time.

111

So you have to be patient.

112

And over time studying, you'll be recycling a lot of language anyway.

113

So there is the simple three step forward, right?

114

Discover, practice and review.

115

It looks like they're all separate.

116

But as all educators will know, language learning is very messy,

117

not football messy, messy as in a mess, complicated mixed up.

118

The discovering is connected with the practice.

119

The practice can be the reviewing.

120

It's all a bit of a cycle.

121

It just goes round and round and round.

122

It's not neat, right?

123

It looks neat on paper, but the reality is it's not neat.

124

It's messy.

125

So be prepared for that.

126

Be patient, but keep going through, okay?

127

Follow this speaking success system and you will become a more confident speaker of English.

128

Simple as that.

129

And now you know the speaking success system, you can go ahead and use it.

130

If you join my course, you'll use it, but you can also just use it on your own, right?

131

And it will transform your speaking skills.

132

It'll make you a more confident speaker.

133

Here's an action step for you.

134

Go back a look at some recent study activity you did for learning English.

135

Compare it to the Discover Practice Review system.

136

Are you following that system?

137

And if not, if you can see a gap, fill the gap.

138

Change it.

139

If you're not reviewing, start reviewing.

140

If you're not really practicing very much, start doing that.

141

Okay.

142

So take your own study activity and map it to the speaking success system.

143

And if you carry on doing this, it will transform how you speak English, really.

144

If you want more help, come and join us on the Gold Course, where you'll be doing lots of discovering through hundreds of model answers, latest IELTS topics.

145

We'll be doing lots of practice, speaking to students around the world,

147

Come and join us.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
