Hello, my friends, and welcome back to Pod English.
2
I'm Kim.
3
Today, you will listen to a short story, a true life -changing story.
4
This episode is part of our five -minute listening and shadowing practice.
5
You can enjoy this even if you only have five minutes, on the bus, while cooking,
6
or when you're walking to university or back home.
7
It's a story about one small moment that changed everything.
8
As you listen, you can shadow the words.
9
Repeat after me, slowly and clearly.
10
This is a story for A1 to A2 English learners.
11
I use simple and clear language.
12
So take a deep breath, listen carefully, and then shadow with me.
13
Two years ago, I felt lost.
14
I had a job, but I didn't enjoy it.
15
I had friends, but I felt alone.
16
Every day looked the same.
17
Wake up.
18
Go to work.
19
Come home.
20
Sleep.
21
I wasn't happy, but I didn't know what to do.
22
One night, I came home late.
23
I was tired and angry.
24
My head was full of noise.
25
I sat on the sofa and turned on the TV, but nothing helped.
26
Then I saw my old notebook on the table.
27
It was a small English notebook from school.
28
I opened it and saw my handwriting.
29
Old words, short sentences, and grammar notes.
30
I smiled a little.
31
I used to love learning English.
32
It made me feel free.
33
But I stopped many years ago.
34
That night, I said to myself, maybe I can start again just for fun,
35
just a few minutes a day.
36
So I did.
37
I opened YouTube and searched, Learn English Slowly.
38
I found a podcast with short stories.
39
The teacher spoke clearly slowly.
40
I understood most of it.
41
Not everything, but enough.
42
I repeated after him, slowly.
43
It felt strange at first, but after a few minutes, I started to enjoy it.
44
I could feel something waking up inside me.
45
The next day, I listened again.
46
10 minutes, then 15 minutes.
47
Every day, it became easier.
48
I started to learn new words.
49
I used them in small sentences.
50
These words gave me power.
51
They were small, but they made me feel strong.
52
After one month, something beautiful happened.
53
My English improved just a little, but my life changed a lot.
54
I started to think differently.
55
I wasn't afraid to make mistakes anymore.
56
I wasn't waiting for the right time to do things.
57
I just started.
58
English became my friend.
59
When I felt lonely, I listened to English podcasts.
60
When I felt tired, I watched short English videos.
61
And every time I learned something new, a new word, a new phrase,
62
or just a new idea.
63
I started writing short notes in English.
64
Today was a good day.
65
I talked to a stranger.
66
I smiled at someone.
67
These small sentences helped me see my life clearly.
68
I was growing, slowly, but really growing.
69
One evening, I was sitting in a cafe.
70
Next to me, two tourists were speaking in English.
71
Before, I would stay quiet.
72
But that day, I smiled and said, Hi, are you visiting here?
73
They smiled back.
74
We talked for five minutes.
75
Nothing special, but for me, it was a big victory.
76
After they left, I felt proud.
77
I said to myself, this is why I started learning again.
78
That moment showed me something important.
79
Sometimes, learning a language isn't just about grammar or vocabulary.
80
It's about learning to connect, to understand people, to share your story,
81
to feel part of something bigger.
82
Now, I still practice every day, just 10 or 15 minutes.
83
Sometimes, I shadow podcasts.
84
Sometimes, I read short stories aloud.
85
Sometimes, I record myself and listen again.
86
I don't study because I have to.
87
I study because I want to.
88
Because English is not just a language for me.
89
It's a reminder that I can always start again.
90
All right, that was a beautiful story.
91
Simple, true, and powerful.
92
Try repeating these sentences right now.

I used to love learning English.

このレッスンについて
「A1-A2 English Listening｜A 5-Minute Life-Changing Listening Practice｜Learn English Through Stories」を使って、シャドーイングで英語を練習しましょう。
毎日15〜30分の練習で、IELTSスピーキングへの自信と実践的な英会話力が身につきます。
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。
