I woke up early today.

Oh no!
49
Why?
50
My neighbor's cat was sitting outside my window and meowing very loudly at 5 in the morning. At 5?
51
That is so early!

Well, at least you had a nice breakfast.
54

Very simple, but very good.
57
See?

Simple is good!
59
Just like today's lesson: simple sentences.
60
Very useful.
61
Let's do it!
62
Before we look at our 10 sentences, let's talk a little about sentence structure.
63
Don't worry, this is very simple.
64
In English, most sentences follow this pattern: subject, then verb, then the rest of the sentence.
65
For example, I am happy.
66
I is the subject, am is the verb, Happy is the rest or "She has a dog." She is the subject,
67
has is the verb, A dog is the rest.
68
Can you think of a sentence like that?
69
Try it in your head right now.
70
Good!
71
Now you are already thinking in English.
72
That is amazing!
73
Let's keep going.
74
Alright, here we go.

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。
