Hey everyone!

Welcome or welcome back to the channel.

Today we're doing something a little different which I hope will be useful to a lot of you and a little fun.

We're doing some shadowing practice.

Shadowing is one of the best ways to improve your pronunciation,

overall fluency, and your confidence in English.

If you've never heard of shadowing before, it's pretty simple.

Shadowing is a technique in language learning where you listen to a native speaker

or someone you'd like to sound like in English and repeat exactly after them,

paying careful attention to the pronunciation of their words and the intonation of their sentences.

Now, I'm a native speaker from the US,

so I speak with an American accent.

So if you want to learn the American accent,

you're in the right place.

I'm going to read a voicemail out loud and you'll repeat exactly as I say it.

So you'll be my shadow.

You'll mimic my tone, my speed, my rhythm, everything.

And don't worry if it feels awkward at first.

I felt silly the first time I tried this technique in German,

but trust me, this method does work.

So grab some water to get those vocal chords ready and let's begin.

English made easy with Claire.

Okay, so like I said,

I'm going to read out loud a voicemail or voice note that I may send to a friend.

I'll stop and go over some of my pronunciations and intonations

that I want to point out to you all as we go.

But the idea is that you'll not only repeat after me,

but also say it with me and I'll give you opportunities to do that.

And if you ever want more practice on something,

you can always pause the video and repeat it as many times as you like.

So let's begin.

I'll read and you shadow me.

Hey, it's me.

You'll notice at the beginning of the sentence,

my intonation rises, and then it falls at the end.

So you practice with me.

Hey, it's me.

And together, hey, it's me.

Rise and fall.

Just wanted to check in and see how you're doing.

Okay, so I want to draw your attention to the T's in just and wanted.

So I didn't actually pronounce the T's in either of these words.

I just wanted, I just wanted, just wanted, just wanted.

So if the T comes at the end of the word or in the middle of a word,

we often totally drop the T in the American accent.

You try.

I just wanted to check in.

You'll also notice that I don't pronounce to with the oo vowel,

but I used the schwa sound.

Uh, right?

To check in.

to check in.

It's not always pronounced in very fast speech to check in,

to check in, to check in.

Okay, let's repeat the whole phrase together.

Here we go.

Just wanted to check in and see how you're doing.

Again, and we don't always pronounce the D at the end.

That one falls away.

An, an, an, c, an, c.

How you're doing?

Also the ng at the end there,

that fell away as well.

I didn't pronounce doing, but often will shorten ing endings to how you're doing.

Okay, let's say the whole thing together.

I just wanted to check in and see how you're doing.

I haven't heard from you in a while and I figured you've been busy.

Again, we have the rise in the first phrase.

I haven't heard from you in a while.

And I figured you've been busy.

The intonation falls at the end of the sentence.

Also, the and elides with the I here.

So we don't pronounce the D at the end.

We had that already.

But with the followed by a vowel sound,

we have and I, and I,

and I, and I figured you've been busy.

And I figured you've been busy.

So I was thinking, are we still on for dinner this Friday?

Here we have a question.

So the intonation doesn't go down.

It goes up at the end.

Are we still on for dinner this Friday?

That one goes up because it's a question.

And still on, still on,

again, we kind of allied the L sound to the beginning of a word that begins with a vowel.

Still on, still on.

Let's say that one together.

So I was thinking, are we still on for dinner this Friday?

I found this great Italian place downtown,

and I think you'll love it.

Here, we want to emphasize the words that are most important.

You can hear that in my speech.

I found this great Italian place downtown and I think you'll love it.

So I'm emphasizing the place,

100

the restaurant is great and that I think you'll love it.

101

I suspect you will like it.

102

Let's say that one together.

103

I found this great Italian place downtown and I think you'll love it.

104

Oh, and one more thing.

105

Do you remember that book I mentioned last week?

106

Okay, again, we have an exclamation followed by a question.

107

So we know the question intonation.

108

If there's an exclamation point,

109

our intonation might go a little higher here.

110

Oh, and one more thing.

111

Do you remember that book I mentioned last week?

112

Now, you may have noticed I didn't pronounce do you.

113

Do you remember?

114

But do you remember?

115

We can elide do and you.

116

Do you becomes do.

117

Do you remember that book I mentioned last week?

118

Also, I want to draw your attention to this ed ending in mentioned.

119

This has a d sound, mentioned.

120

Again, it kind of falls away in normal speech.

121

Do you remember that book I mentioned last week?

122

Okay, you may not hear the ed so strong here,

123

but it's a d sound, right?

124

In the next sentence, I finally finished it.

125

And oh my gosh, it was amazing.

126

I finally finished it.

127

And oh my gosh, it was amazing.

128

Now, finished has a T ending for ED.

129

We often have to know which pronunciation of the ED ending it is.

130

And a lot of the time,

131

you just have to memorize these.

132

here it's a t.

133

I finally finished it.

134

I finally finished it.

135

And oh my gosh, it was amazing.

136

You have to read it.

137

I really want my friend to read it.

138

So I emphasize half.

139

It's not have with this V sound that we've probably all been taught, but half.

140

And hafta, hafta.

141

You have to read it, not have to, right?

142

We have a different way of speaking very quickly.

143

You have to read it.

144

Let's say it together.

145

You have to read it.

146

Let me know if you want me to bring it for you on Friday.

147

Let me know if you want me to bring it for you on Friday.

148

So not let me, we have lemme, let me know.

149

Let me know if you want me to bring it for you on Friday.

150

We drop that T at the end of want as well.

151

If you want me, want me.

152

Okay.

153

Anyway, no rush.

154

Just give me a call when you get a chance.

155

Okay?

156

Okay?

157

This tag question at the end,

158

okay, is a rise in intonation there.

159

And give me was not overly pronounced, but gimme, gimme.

160

Anyway, no rush.

161

Just gimme a call when you get a chance, okay?

162

Hope everything's good on your end.

163

Talk to you soon.

164

hope everything's good on your end,

165

your end, your end, those allied together,

166

talk to you soon, talk to you,

167

talk to you, not talk to you,

168

but talk to you soon.

169

Let's say that one more time together.

170

Hope everything's good on your end, talk to you soon.

171

Okay, awesome job.

172

I'm now going to read the whole voicemail again in one take,

173

and I want you to read along with me.

174

This is also so you can come back to this video at any time and practice speaking along with me without stopping.

175

Of course, you can still pause the video at any time.

176

Hey, it's me.

177

Just wanted to check in and see how you're doing.

178

I haven't heard from you in a while,

179

and I figured you've been busy.

180

So I was thinking, are we still on for dinner this Friday?

181

I found this great Italian place downtown and I think you'll love it.

182

Oh, and one more thing.

183

Do you remember that book I mentioned last week?

184

I finally finished it and oh my gosh, it was amazing.

185

You have to read it.

186

Let me know if you want me to bring it for you on Friday.

187

Anyway, no rush.

188

Just give me a call when you get a chance, okay?

189

Hope everything's good on your end.

190

Talk to you soon.

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。
