レッスンを作成中...
1
Welcome back to our shadowing practice series.
2
If you haven't watched my video shadowing English practice how to do it properly, please check it out first.
3
In that video I explain in detail how shadowing works, how to structure your practice and how to get real results.
4
Today's topic is hobbies, interests and your lifestyle.
5
This video is the practice video.
6
Today's session will take about 10 minutes.
7
And remember shadowing works best when you practice consistently.
8
I recommend doing this video every day for a few days or longer.
9
Repeat it as many times as you need until you feel confident talking about your interests and your lifestyle.
10
Repetition builds fluency.
11
Here is how we are going to practice today.
12
First, you will listen carefully.
13
Second, you will repeat phrases and short chunks with pauses.
14
Third, you will shadow with me at a natural speed.
15
And finally, you will customize the text to your own life and speak about your interests using the same structure.
16
This is how you move from copying to speaking naturally.
17
Let's begin.
18
Before you start speaking, listen carefully once or twice.
19
Focus on understanding the meaning, the context, and the emotion behind the sentences.
20
Shadowing only works when you understand what you are saying.
21
If you repeat words without to listen first,
22
make sure the message is clear and then we'll move to speaking.
23
If necessary, use subtitles or a transcript to check your understanding.
24
I really love nature.
25
I think that's one of the reasons I enjoy living in New Zealand so much.
26
It's honestly one of the most beautiful places to explore.
27
I love going hiking or walking in nature.
28
There are so many beautiful tracks and I like that it's generally very safe.
29
There are no dangerous animals and many tracks are suitable for children.
30
You can walk along the beach, explore green forests, visits, visit waterfalls or climb mountains.
31
There is something for every mood.
32
I'm not really into pubs or clubs, I don't drink alcohol, and I find those places too noisy for me.
33
I prefer quiet places where you can talk and really connect with people.
34
I also enjoy staying active.
35
I'm not extreme about exercise, but I like feeling strong and energized.
36
Playing tennis could be fun, or doing something adventurous like tree adventures.
37
Every morning I do a short 15-minute routine.
38
I dance a little, do some pilates and stretch.
39
It may seem small, but it really changes how I feel.
40
It gives me energy and helps me start the day in a positive way.
41
When it comes to books, I usually read about personal growth and self-development.
42
I'm interested in topics like mindset and consciousness.
43
I would like to start reading more biographies because real-life stories inspire me.
44
For movies, I enjoy films that make you think.
45
I like science fiction, for example movies like Limitless.
46
I enjoy stories that make you question what's possible.
47
And music is very important to me.
48
I like uplifting music with soft emotional voices.
49
I enjoy ambient music, instrumental soundtracks and sometimes Celtic or folk music.
50
I love music that feels inspiring, peaceful and a little bit magical.
51
I'm also very interested in parenting and early childhood development.
52
When I became a mom I became very curious about how children grow and learn.
53
I started learning about how child's brain develops and how early experiences shape their personality.
54
I began my parenting journey with the Rye approach and books by Amy Pickler and Penny Brownlee.
55
I believe in gentle and respectful parenting.
56
For me it means seeing a child as a capable person and guiding them instead of controlling them.
57
It's something I care about deeply and I often read or listen to books on this topic.
58
I'm also passionate about eco-friendly living.
59
I clean my home with non-toxic products because health is very important to me.
60
I try to eat whole foods and cook simple nutritious meals.
61
I like making things like bone broth, lentils, and soups.
62
We love eating sourdough bread, sauerkraut, and kombucha.
63
Now repeat sentence by sentence.
64
First listen for a small chunk, just one sentence or a short phrase.
65
Pause the video, say it out loud two or three times.
66
Then continue playing the audio.
67
If you need support, turn on subtitles or use a transcript to make sure you understand everything.
68
And when you repeat, don't concentrate only on the individual words.
69
Notice the stress, the way sounds link together, the overall rhythm of the sentence.
70
Shadowing isn't only about repeating vocabulary.
71
It's about copying the natural music of English.

Don't wait until I finish the sentence.

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。
