Vocabulary and speaking notes for this lesson
This A2 speaking lesson is built on the video “AEF3e SB1 PE Ep1 Checking in”. This video has 22 sentences and 82 words to shadow. The speech runs for 1:10. The speaker talks slowly, about 70 words per minute, so there is time to copy every sound. 5 of its 22 sentences are questions, so it is good practice for question intonation and short answers.

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。
