シャドーイング練習: Slow English Conversations (A1+ comprehensible input) - 動画で英語スピーキングを学ぶ

Hello everyone, welcome back to my Slow English podcast.

Today I'm here with my friend Jay

and we're going to show you guys something very exciting we've collaborated on to help you learn English.

We'll have a slow English conversation with lots of hand gestures for you to understand easier.

All right.

Welcome, Jay.

Where are you in the world right now?

Thank you, Tiana.

Right now, I am in Vietnam.

Vietnam is in Asia, which is far from my hometown,

in York, in England.

How about you?

Where are you in the world right now?

I am in Mexico.

Mexico is not that far from my hometown.

My hometown is in the United States, Nebraska.

Mm -hmm.

Wow.

Sorry, one question.

Sure.

And where in Vietnam?

What city in Vietnam?

I am living in a city called Da Nang.

Da Nang.

Da Nang is beautiful.

Have you been to Da Nang?

Yes, yes.

I love Da Nang.

I love Vietnam.

It's my favorite country.

Wow, awesome.

Maybe in the future, you can fly to Vietnam.

Yeah, I hope so.

We can make a video in person.

Yeah, yeah, together in person.

Sounds good.

Could you share with me a little bit about Mexico?

Maybe the food, the weather, the people, the language.

Tell me about the culture.

The food in Mexico is delicious.

It's the best in the whole world.

It's spicy.

It's greasy.

A lot of meat in the south of Mexico the weather is hot

but in the north of Mexico it's a little bit colder mm -hmm

and in Mexico they speak Spanish we speak Spanish mm -hmm The people are very loud

and very warm and inviting.

And Mexico is a beautiful place to visit.

You should come.

I would love to visit Mexico.

Yes.

Can you tell me a little bit about Vietnam? and the culture in Vietnam?

Sure.

The culture in Vietnam is very different than the culture in the UK, in England.

One thing is about the weather.

Here in Vietnam,

the weather is very humid it's very sweaty it's hot

and it's wet it's wet like water there is lots of water in the air

and it's very humid it makes me sweat the food is wonderful it's delicious they have my favorite food now

which is called pho it's spelled p h o pho

and maybe you know

but pho is a bowl of noodles with broth broth is like water but with more flavor Mm -hmm.

And one more thing about Vietnamese culture is that they are very friendly,

very smiley, very happy people, and they always want to help you.

They want to show you their country, show you their foods.

They are very open, open and warm and welcoming.

That's what I loved about Vietnam is that it was similar to Mexico.

It was similar because the people are so happy and helping, friendly.

Yeah.

I loved Vietnam because it's very similar to Mexico.

And how is Vietnam different from your hometown?

How are the people different?

Sure.

In England, in my hometown, people are more closed.

They are more closed off and maybe narrow -minded.

They are focused on their day, their tasks, their work.

In Vietnam, people are more open, as I say.

They are just much more friendly and warm towards you.

Mm -hmm.

Yeah, yeah.

Narrow -minded, that's a good word.

Mm -hmm.

Yes, the opposite being open -minded.

Exactly, yeah.

Mm -hmm.

That's where you are in the world.

I like to use real life objects in my videos.

What about you?

I am the same.

I also use real life objects like this mug of Yorkshire tea.

Yeah.

Yorkshire is...

That won't focus let me cover my face let me get a tap focus on

that if you put your hand in front of it oh yeah you're right oh yeah sorry but I did

there it is Yorkshire tea this is tea from my county Yorkshire

and this is a mug these are sunglasses.

I'm wearing the sunglasses because it's bright.

And this is a bell and I'm ringing the bell to ring the bell.

100

Oh, speaking of ringing, one second, somebody is ringing me now.

101

Hello there.

102

It's great to talk with you today.

103

What's on your mind?

104

Well, what's on my mind?

105

I would like to know how can I improve my English speaking?

106

That's a great question.

107

I think the best way to improve your English speaking is by practicing a lot.

108

You could try watching movies or TV shows in English or listening to podcasts.

109

It helps you get used to the sounds and rhythms of the language.

110

What do you think about that?

111

Well, Miss Honey, I think that that is a fantastic answer.

112

You have helped me.

113

Thank you.

114

Bye -bye.

115

Wait, what?

116

Were you talking to me? Or me?

117

I was talking to, not you, but you.

118

that's so cool i love it i give really good advice you do

119

that was fantastic advice it's gonna help so many english learners to practice speaking

120

so guys i worked with jay to create an AI,

121

an AI conversation partner that sounds exactly like me, Miss Honey.

122

Now, after your videos, you can practice speaking with Miss Honey AI.

123

The easiest way to practice using the vocabulary you learned in a video, by speaking.

124

Let's build your confidence by speaking.

125

You can use the link in the description to try out Miss Honey AI for seven days free.

126

She can help you become fluent in English.

127

Let me show you guys how it works.

128

Hello, Tayana.

129

It's great to talk with you today.

130

What's on your mind?

131

Hey, Miss Honey, it's great to talk to you too.

132

What's on my mind?

133

I'm really excited to introduce this AI so that my students can start practicing speaking every day.

134

That's wonderful, Dayana.

135

It's a great idea to use AI to help your students practice speaking.

136

Repetition is so important for learning.

137

What do you think they will enjoy most about practicing with the AI?

138

I think they'll enjoy speaking with someone who sounds just like me and who speaks slowly and clearly.

139

Thank you.

140

That's great.

141

It sounds like you're saying that your students will enjoy speaking with the AI

142

because it sounds like you and speaks clearly and slowly.

143

It's wonderful that you're thinking of ways to make learning fun and accessible for your students.

144

It's kind of creepy to hear my own voice and speak with myself,

145

but hopefully you guys enjoy speaking with my AI.

146

I have one too.

147

And at first it was weird.

148

It was mind blowing it's so accurate accurate

149

and it sounds just like you she sounds just like you yeah she does she does

150

and so does yours he sounds like you too he sounds just like me Yeah, I think it's so cool.

151

Okay, so we both create videos.

152

I want to know, why did you start?

153

What made you want to start making videos?

154

And was it hard?

155

Or was it scary?

156

I started making videos randomly one day.

157

I was watching a video.

158

I was learning Chinese on a YouTube channel

159

and she was speaking slowly very slowly and finally I

160

was able to understand what she was saying I was able to understand Chinese for a second.

161

And I thought, wow, my students would love a slow English podcast from myself.

162

They always told me,

163

I hate practicing listening to podcasts because everyone speaks too fast and unclear.

164

So I thought I'll make some slow English videos for my students to practice with.

165

And I sat down, I recorded a TikTok and everybody loved it.

166

It went.

167

viral.

168

After that, I just started making YouTube videos and more TikToks.

169

It wasn't very scary because I was just doing what I always did,

170

which was speak English and talk about interesting topics like the different types of intelligence,

171

the meaning of colors, the best parts about traveling, just different topics.

172

So instead of teaching students through online meetings,

173

I would just do the same thing in my videos.

174

And it was even more fun because now I was connecting with thousands of people instead of just one.

175

so it was it was very fun i never felt scared

176

i think wow okay amazing did you did you ever fail with

177

that or did you succeed from the beginning i think i succeeded since the beginning okay

178

but it depends on what you consider a failure maybe I got a lot less engagement on something

179

that I was really excited and proud of and then on something that I didn't think

180

much of it went really viral so like it really depends sometimes you don't expect it sure yeah

181

i think your approach the way you make your videos in such an accessible way it's easy for learners to understand, to comprehend.

182

I love your hand gestures.

183

You make it so easy to watch,

184

easy to listen to, and very valuable, very valuable for learners.

185

Thank you.

186

I even got my nails done because I'm always showing my hands.

187

So I thought I need to have my nails done.

188

I haven't got my nails done.

189

Not yet.

190

Not yet.

191

Yeah, very soon.

192

Yeah.

193

After this, I'll paint them.

194

Yeah, you should.

195

You should.

196

Now, what about you?

197

I, like you, I was an English teacher and I still am.

198

In the past I taught online on my laptop for many years, seven, eight years.

199

I taught children in schools, adults in person and online.

200

But when I moved from England to Vietnam I started making social media videos.

201

Like you, I started TikTok.

202

I made one video every day.

203

But in the beginning, the videos didn't get views.

204

People didn't watch the videos for maybe

205

six months I made videos every single day nothing happened

206

day one day two day three day four nothing happened

207

but i kept going i knew i knew that i couldn't fail if i kept going

208

eventually one video took off it took off it blew up it exploded it went viral like yours not quite as viral.

209

but it went viral and then the rest is history.

210

From there I made the rest, the rest is gone.

211

It's all history.

212

Yeah so for me it was actually quite a lot of failure but I think that's okay.

213

Like I think it's okay to fail if you just keep going.

214

It doesn't matter, brush it off, keep going.

215

and it's failure but at the end it was success so can you even consider it failure exactly

216

yeah sure okay so we have just talked about our stories about becoming content creators from English teachers.

217

Now, I would like to know,

218

was this your dream when you were young?

219

What was your dream when you were young?

220

My dream when I was young was to be a marine biologist.

221

Wow.

222

I loved the ocean, animals, sea animals specifically.

223

And I was very interested in anything that had to do with the ocean.

224

And what about you?

225

What was your dream as a child? as a child like

226

you similar to you i wanted to work

227

with animals especially monkeys i don't know why

228

but as a child i loved monkeys i used to have

229

many soft toys.

230

This is a soft toy.

231

I had many soft toys.

232

They were all monkeys.

233

I had maybe 26 soft toys of monkeys.

234

They had sticky hands so they would stick together

235

and you could hang them on my bed it was always

236

my dream to see an orangutan an orangutan is the man of the jungle

237

or the human of the jungle and they live in indonesia they are big orange apes

238

I still, to this day, still haven't seen one in real life.

239

But I will.

240

You will.

241

That's the important part.

242

I will.

243

You will.

244

Interesting.

245

Because, so, are monkeys your favorite animal?

246

Mm.

247

Are they my favorite animal?

248

What is my favourite animal?

249

They have to be, right?

250

They have to be, yeah.

251

If you have 26 stuffed monkeys, they have to be.

252

Yeah.

253

As a kid, as a child, they were my favourite animal.

254

Now I'm fascinated by cats.

255

Any type of cat.

256

So recently, just yesterday, I was watching a documentary about lions,

257

leopards, and cheetahs.

258

Cheetahs are the fastest land mammal, the fastest animal on land.

259

And for me, I love how,

260

cool word, complex, how complex the cat's character are.

261

Yeah, you've got a better gesture.

262

Complex.

263

They are really cool to watch, observe, and yeah, they're just so successful around the world.

264

Wow, interesting.

265

I would have assumed.

266

that monkeys were your favorite animal because I'm gonna mention this a little bit.

267

Okay.

268

When I was a little girl, I had tons of stuffed animals, but they were elephants.

269

Wow.

270

Even today, I have two stuffed elephants, but I love elephants.

271

Since I was a little girl, I don't know why either, but I've loved elephants.

272

And I always dreamed of seeing an elephant.

273

And just like three months ago, I saw an elephant in real life for the first time.

274

And yeah, it was a dream come true.

275

Amazing.

276

How did you feel when you saw that elephant?

277

I felt very connected.

278

It was almost like I already had seen an elephant because I watched videos all the time.

279

I always dreamed of it.

280

So it was just like it was just coming true.

281

Oh, how lovely.

282

Yeah.

283

They are very intelligent animals.

284

very very and and seeing their eyes

285

and you can just feel the the wisdom yeah and everything

286

that is inside of them you can feel it yeah i love that about animals like they make us present

287

future past we think in the future and the past but animals bring us here and now yeah they make us present.

288

So we've talked about our dreams, about monkeys, elephants and cats.

289

And now, besides animals, what do you like?

290

What are you into?

291

What are you interested in?

292

I'm very interested in dancing.

293

Since I was a little girl, I love dancing, anything.

294

Wow.

295

Putting on music and dancing in my room is something that I've been doing since I was five years old.

296

And whenever I feel overwhelmed or stressed or even just sad,

297

I'll just put on music and I'll dance and I'll feel happy again.

298

So dancing, anything.

299

Salsa, cumbia, modern dancing, ballet.

300

When I was a little girl, I would watch Dance Moms.

301

Have you heard of Dance Moms?

302

I have never heard of Dance Moms.

303

Okay, you'll have to look it up

304

but okay i'll look it up it's um it's this crazy series where these little girls they dance

305

and their moms are always just getting into fights with each other

306

because they're like oh my daughter's better than yours your daughter's

307

being mean to my daughter my daughter should have gotten And this solo, they're very competitive.

308

The moms, but the daughters, they're just there like, they're good dancers.

309

Yeah, they're good dancers.

310

But yeah, I think it was probably a traumatic show for the little girls.

311

I bet.

312

Yeah, when I was little, I loved watching Dance Moms.

313

It was my favorite because the girls were such good dancers.

314

Maddie Ziegler, Sia, you know Sia?

315

I do.

316

Sia has a dancer who dances in her videos all the time.

317

And she's from Dance Moms.

318

She found her on Dance Moms.

319

So they're very famous now.

320

It's very interesting, but it's like my childhood.

321

That's a hobby that I have had since my childhood.

322

How wonderful.

323

Do you dance every day?

324

Hmm.

325

I normally dance.

326

Once or twice a week.

327

Okay.

328

Is it official or is it more just as you please?

329

As I please.

330

As I please.

331

Put on the music and start doing a bit of salsa.

332

Exactly, yeah.

333

I mean, I go to a salsa class once a week.

334

I go to a modern dance class once a week.

335

And then I just dance in my room alone twice a week.

336

Nice.

337

That's a good amount of practice.

338

Yeah, yeah, for sure.

339

And what about you?

340

What do you like to do?

341

I like to dance too but not officially I just I like to move my body so

342

that could be dancing it could be gymnastics it could be

343

running walking playing tennis I like to move I like to stay active.

344

It's important to me.

345

It makes me feel good.

346

It makes me feel strong.

347

It keeps me sharp.

348

As well as that, I love music.

349

I have my guitar over there.

350

I have a piano and I like to sing and rap.

351

I enjoy many things to be honest.

352

I love making videos.

353

I really like being creative.

354

Anything that I can make something, create something, I absolutely love.

355

So yeah, I have many hobbies.

356

And just like I changed from monkeys to cats.

357

I like to change my hobbies and keep things fresh and keep a variety of different things.

358

Yeah, that's a good point.

359

A good point, I guess.

360

Because anything creative, it just feels liberating.

361

It's like, oh, I'm finally relaxed because I got my creative juices out of me.

362

that's a good phrase yeah creative juices yeah we say we

363

say our creative juices meaning just like our creativity yeah

364

and actually i love to rap too it's

365

so much fun to me to find the rhymes with a friend it's just like going back

366

and forth i think it's really good practice even for developing your speaking.

367

Absolutely.

368

Yeah.

369

I do that with like in an improvised way.

370

Like, so one game that I love to play, which maybe I can share with your audience

371

and you maybe to improve my English and my speaking is the word association game.

372

So maybe we can play as an example.

373

So I will say a word and then you say a word that connects or relates to that word.

374

And then we go back and forth like ping pong, like table tennis.

375

So you want to try?

376

Yeah, yeah.

377

Let's do an example.

378

Okay.

379

Let's do an example.

380

Okay.

381

And usually guys I start with something around me

382

so a bell okay so I find something that's

383

so you say related or something that rhymes something it can rhyme

384

or it can be related whatever your first thought is

385

if it could be bell hell or it could be bell ring

386

or it could be bell school and then go back and forth.

387

Okay.

388

410

That's a good transition.

411

So you see, we went back and forth.

412

We can play this with ourselves to practice our English speaking too.

413

I can say pen, pencil, rubber, erase, school.

414

Yeah, or even define words that are similar to others, like comprehend, think, understand.

415

Yeah, these synonyms, similar words.

416

Synonyms.

417

Synonyms.

418

Nice.

419

I need to learn from you with your hand gestures.

420

Yeah, synonyms.

421

Cool.

422

I wanted to talk about one more thing that's close to me.

423

As an English teacher, I also love languages.

424

You are a mix of American and Mexican.

425

Is that correct?

426

That's correct.

427

So, do you speak languages?

428

Which languages do you speak?

429

I do.

430

I speak English and Spanish.

431

What about you?

432

I speak English, obviously.

433

Spanish and French when I was in university studying I learned Spanish

434

and French translation I love to learn languages that's actually

435

a big reason why I started my YouTube channel it's why I taught before and it's why I started Sprout which is

436

my English platform, which helps non -native speakers like you guys to improve your English,

437

to become better and to immerse yourself in the English language through watching, listening and speaking.

438

To learn in a natural way.

439

That's how you learn a language by learning naturally,

440

by watching, learning, listening, and speaking.

441

And remember, guys, if you want to practice speaking with Miss Honey AI,

442

then click the link in the description, and you'll get seven days trial for free.

この動画が英語スピーキング練習に最適な理由

「Slow English Conversations (A1+ comprehensible input)」という動画は、初心者でも安心して取り組める最高の教材です。ゆっくりしたスピードで会話が進み、手話も交えられているので、意味が理解しやすいだけでなく、発音やイントネーションもしっかり覚えられます。特にIELTS スピーキング対策にも役立つ、自然な会話の流れが特徴です。日常的な質問と答えのパターンが多く、実践的な表現が満載です。

自然な会話の秘密を解き明かす

会話の中からいくつかの文を取り上げてみましょう。まず、「Vietnam is in Asia, which is far from my hometown, in York, in England.」は、場所を説明する際に「which」を使って追加情報を添える自然な表現です。初心者がよく使う「and」で繋ぐよりも、スムーズでネイティブらしいです。次に、「The food in Mexico is delicious. It's the best in the whole world.」は、単純な文を繋げて感情を表現しています。「delicious」から「the best」へとレベルを上げることで、より強い印象を与えます。もう一つ、「Maybe in the future, you can fly to Vietnam.」は、「maybe」を使って柔らかい提案をする表現で、日常会話でよく使われます。これらの文は文法的に複雑ではないながら、自然な会話の流れを作っています。

効果的な練習方法：shadowspeakで実践！

この動画を使った最も効果的な練習法は「shadow speak」（シャドーイング）です。具体的なルーティンは次の通りです。まず、動画を1文ずつ止めながら、すぐに後ろから同じ文を発音します。この時、発音だけでなく、イントネーションやリズムも真似ることが重要です。次に、3文程度まとめて聞き、それを一気に繰り返します。最後に、自分で録音してみて、元の会話と比べてどこが違うかを確認しましょう。この繰り返しを続けると、自然なスピーキング力が身につきます。動画で英語学習をするメリットは、視覚と聴覚を使って記憶に残りやすいことです。毎日10分程度の練習で、確実に進歩が見られるでしょう。

この動画の文法

話し手がよく使っている文型を、動画の実際の表現とともに紹介します。

文型	動画での表現
現在完了形 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去の出来事が今も関係している	we've collaborated · have helped · have just talked
受動態 be + 過去分詞 — 誰がするかより、何が起きるかに焦点を当てる	is called · are focused · can be related
関係詞節 who / which + 節 — 人や物について情報を加える	Asia, which is · someone who sounds · Sprout which is

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。
