Even after writing eleven books and winning several prestigious awards, Maya Angelou couldn’t escape the nagging doubt that she hadn’t really earned her accomplishments.
2
Albert Einstein experienced something similar: he described himself as an “involuntary swindler” whose work didn’t deserve as much attention as it had received.
3
Accomplishments at the level of Angelou’s or Einstein’s are rare, but their feeling of fraudulence is extremely common.
4
Why can’t so many of us shake feelings that we haven’t earned our accomplishments, or that our ideas and skills aren’t worthy of others’ attention?
5
Psychologist Pauline Rose Clance was the first to study this unwarranted sense of insecurity.
6
In her work as a therapist, she noticed many of her undergraduate patients shared a concern: though they had high grades, they didn’t believe they deserved their spots at the university.
7
Some even believed their acceptance had been an admissions error.
8
While Clance knew these fears were unfounded, she could also remember feeling the exact same way in graduate school.
9
She and her patients experienced something that goes by a number of names-- imposter phenomenon, imposter experience, and imposter syndrome.
10
Together with colleague Suzanne Imes, Clance first studied imposterism in female college students and faculty.
11
Their work established pervasive feelings of fraudulence in this group.
12
Since that first study, the same thing has been established across gender, race, age, and a huge range of occupations, though it may be more prevalent and disproportionately affect the experiences of underrepresented or disadvantaged groups.
13
To call it a syndrome is to downplay how universal it is.
14
It's not a disease or an abnormality, and it isn’t necessarily tied to depression, anxiety, or self-esteem.
15
Where do these feelings of fraudulence come from?
16
People who are highly skilled or accomplished tend to think others are just as skilled.
17
This can spiral into feelings that they don’t deserve accolades and opportunities over other people.
18
And as Angelou and Einstein experienced, there’s often no threshold of accomplishment that puts these feelings to rest.
19
Feelings of imposterism aren’t restricted to highly skilled individuals, either.
20
Everyone is susceptible to a phenomenon known as pluralistic ignorance, where we each doubt ourselves privately, but believe we’re alone in thinking that way because no one else voices their doubts.
21
Since it’s tough to really know how hard our peers work, how difficult they find certain tasks, or how much they doubt themselves, there’s no easy way to dismiss feelings that we’re less capable than the people around us.
22
Intense feelings of imposterism can prevent people from sharing their great ideas or applying for jobs and programs where they’d excel.
23
At least so far, the most surefire way to combat imposter syndrome is to talk about it.
24
Many people suffering from imposter syndrome are afraid that if they ask about their performance, their fears will be confirmed.
25
And even when they receive positive feedback, it often fails to ease feelings of fraudulence.
26
But on the other hand, hearing that an advisor or mentor has experienced feelings of imposterism can help relieve those feelings.
27
The same goes for peers.
28
Even simply finding out there’s a term for these feelings can be an incredible relief.
29
Once you’re aware of the phenomenon, you can combat your own imposter syndrome by collecting and revisiting positive feedback.
30
One scientist who kept blaming herself for problems in her lab started to document the causes every time something went wrong.
31
Eventually, she realized most of the problems came from equipment failure, and came to recognize her own competence.
32
We may never be able to banish these feelings entirely, but we can have open conversations about academic or professional challenges.
33
With increasing awareness of how common these experiences are, perhaps we can feel freer to be frank about our feelings and build confidence in some simple truths: you have talent, you are capable, and you belong.

このレッスンについて
このレッスンでは、「インポスター症候群」について学び、感じる気持ちを理解することができます。インポスター症候群は、自分の成果に対して疑念を抱く現象であり、多くの人が経験します。特に優れた成果を上げた人々がこの感覚に苦しむことが多いです。英語の発音を良くするために、トランスクリプトをもとにシャドーイングを行うことで、自信を持って自分のスキルを向上させることができるでしょう。
重要な語彙＆フレーズ
- インポスター症候群 - 自分の成果に対する疑念や不安を感じる状態。
- 成果 - 何かを達成した結果や功績。
- 自己評価 - 自分自身の能力や価値に対する評価。
- プルラリスティック無知 - 自分だけが不安に感じていると思う感情。
- フィードバック - 他者からの評価や意見。
- メンター - 指導や助言を提供する人物。

練習のヒント
この動画のスピードとトーンに合わせて、シャドーイングを行うことは非常に効果的です。最初は音声を聞きながら、文のリズムとイントネーションに注意を払いましょう。特に英語スピーキング練習においては、声に出して繰り返すことで、発音を改善できます。以下のポイントを考慮してください。
- 速さを抑えて、単語の発音を明確にすることを心がけましょう。
- 特に感情を込めて話す部分は、実際の感情を感じながら練習することで、より自然な表現になります。
- 最初はゆっくり声に出して、それから少しずつ速さを上げることで、よりスムーズに発音ができるようになります。
- 定期的に自分の声を録音して、発音やイントネーションをチェックし、改善点を見つけましょう。
- shadow speakの形式を活かして、他の学習者と一緒に練習するのも良い方法です。
このように、ひたすらに練習を重ねることで、インポスター症候群に対処しながら自分の英語力を高めることができます。自信を持ち、自分の声を自由に使えるようになりましょう！
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。
