If you're in a class, say your name and why you're learning English. Exactly. My name is Tom. I'm from the United States.
74
I like to learn new things. And at a party, hi, I'm Emily. I love to paint and listen to music. That's a great way to start a conversation. It is. Then the person can ask, "Oh, what do you paint?" or "What music do you like?" And a new friendship begins. It all starts with "Tell me about yourself." It really does. It's not a scary question. It's an invitation. An invitation to share a little bit about you. That's a beautiful way to think about it. I think it's been very nice to learn more about you, Tom.
75
Me, too, Emily. I learned you're an art student who loves pasta and blue, and you have a sleepy cat named Luna. And I learned you're a teacher who loves pizza and green, and you have a friendly dog named Max.
76

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。
