Okay, today I am answering the question I always get asked.

How do I speak English fluently without thinking?

Is it even possible?

And the answer is yes, absolutely.

And today I'm going to show you exactly how to do it.

First, let's talk about why you think so much when you're speaking English.

It's not because you're bad at English,

it's because your brain is having to do too much work.

You're trying to juggle grammar rules,

translate from your native language,

remember vocabulary, and think of the next sentence all at the same time.

That's like trying to cook dinner while reading during an earthquake.

Fluent speakers don't do that.

Fluent speakers use automatic language.

Their brain retrieves English in the same way that you retrieve your native language instantly.

So the real goal here is not necessarily to learn more English,

it's to make the English you already know more automatic.

So let me give you some great techniques to make your English more automatic.

Okay, technique number one.

Stop thinking word by word and start thinking in sections.

Small ready-made pieces of language that you can memorize as one unit.

Yes, of course, it's very good to know lots of words but it's much better to learn phrases,

sentences and sections.

It will make your speaking faster,

more natural and way easier.

So let's look at some ready-made sentences you can add to your vocabulary.

Repeat after me.

To be honest, here's the thing.

What I mean is, The point is,

if you think about it,

as far as I know,

at the moment, from my point of you believe it

or not i'm going to teach you the next technique

while i get ready so this technique is called the five second rule the rule is simple

when someone asks you a question in english answer within five seconds even

if it isn't perfect yes mistakes will get made

but we're not trying to reach perfection right now we're trying

to encourage our brain to speed up the output relying on

the knowledge you already have this forces your brain to stop translating

and it stops you overthinking and pausing for example

if i ask what did you do yesterday don't pause

and think for 20 seconds just say something it might not be great english

but don't worry about that right now Even if it's just something really simple like I went to work,

I went to the shops, I watched TV.

It's not amazing English, you don't sound like a poet but at least it's automatic,

at least it's quick.

You know this is not the exercise for developing your vocabulary or perfecting your grammar,

this is just an exercise to speed up the process of thinking, translating and speaking.

So just say something.

Okay, all done.

Let's practice.

I will ask you some questions.

I want you to pause the video and answer straight away.

Here we go.

What is your favourite thing about your job?

What do you think of dogs?

Describe the town or city you live in?

What would be your dream holiday?

What were you best at at school?

The next technique is shadowing.

Shadowing is when you listen to a native speaker and repeat them, like a shadow.

You can shadow movie scenes,

podcasts, YouTube videos like this one, audiobooks.

It can be anyone, as long as you're shadowing someone whose voice you like.

Shadowing improves pronunciation, rhythm, sentence structure,

speed, and most importantly, confidence.

Try it like this.

Find someone who speaks in a way you really like.

Listen to them saying one sentence,

pause, and then repeat it instantly.

Even if you don't know the meaning of all the words.

Repeat it exactly with the same speed, rhythm, intonation and tone.

And once you feel confident with that,

then you can look up the words you don't know to expand your vocabulary.

So let's try this technique together.

I will show you how I would do it

and it'll just give you an idea of the kind of thing I mean.

So who shall we shadow?

Oh, let's shadow Emma Watson.

Emma Watson is very popular with my students.

Lots of people want to sound like her.

So let's try Emma Watson.

Hi, I'm Emma Watson and I'm headed to London.

There we go.

I've copied the ups and downs.

Exactly like that.

Let's hear another sentence.

You know, you never know when you're going to need just a quick,

straight glass of gin.

You never know when you're going to need a quick,

straight glass of gin.

You might have to listen to sentences a couple of times to remember what she's saying

or you can write it down before you say it.

Whatever works for you.

And this is what I have with me when I'm at the airport.

This is what I have with me when I go to the airport.

So that's the idea.

Take it slowly.

100

Don't worry if you're not very good at it to begin with.

101

It takes a little bit of practice.

102

Here's another simple but powerful exercise.

103

Narrate your life in English.

104

During your morning, say things like I'm pouring the filtered water into the kettle.

105

I'm closing the lid of the kettle and turning on the kettle.

106

I'm opening the cupboard and I'm grabbing a mug.

107

I'm grabbing the jar with the tea bags in.

108

I'm opening the jar and grabbing a tea bag.

109

I'm placing the tea bag in the mug.

110

You can do this out loud or in your head if you're in public.

111

I need to catch the bus.

112

Oh, I'm late.

113

I really hope it's not crowded.

114

By doing this, you're training your brain to think in English in everyday life,

115

creating a constant stream of English rather than only using it when you have a lesson.

116

You will never be able to speak English without thinking if you only speak English in a controlled environment like a lesson.

117

bring English into your everyday life make it just a part

118

of your routine make it as normal as brushing your teeth

119

or getting in a shower that's where you'll see real progress

120

the next technique I want to share with you is based off an old radio show called just a minute

121

and I have memories of sitting in the back of the car

122

while my mum was driving and she would listen to this and I would kind of fall asleep while listening to it.

123

And the concept is you are given a topic,

124

maybe a word or a topic of some kind,

125

and you have to talk about that topic for a minute.

126

And you are not allowed to hesitate or repeat yourself or stop talking, basically.

127

So that's the challenge.

128

You have to say something new.

129

You can't pause.

130

You can't think for too long.

131

I think they allow two seconds of thinking time maybe.

132

And this is an excellent activity to do

133

if you are serious about speaking English without thinking because you've got that pressure of,

134

oh my goodness, I have to keep talking.

135

Just talk.

136

Even if mistakes get made,

137

even if you say ridiculous stuff,

138

it doesn't matter right now.

139

You are training your brain to just get words out no matter what.

140

I'm going to do it for you to show you that it's possible.

141

I'm not saying I'm going to be good at this.

142

It's hard.

143

It's really difficult, but I want to give you an idea.

144

Okay, I'm going to set a timer for one minute and I'm going to talk about golf.

145

I know nothing about golf,

146

but I'm going to try to talk about golf for one minute.

147

Go.

148

Golf is a very interesting sport.

149

I think it has its history in Scotland.

150

There seems to be a big link between Scotland and golf

151

and I'm not quite sure why because I'm not massively into it

152

but I know a lot of men stereotypically get involved in

153

golf although a lot of women play golf now as well

154

which is fantastic but when I picture a golf club I picture retired people

155

because they have more time to go and enjoy that sport

156

and I think a lot of footballers enjoy golf as well

157

because it's so different to football because you can just switch off.

158

It's still very physical so you're walking around,

159

you're using your muscles, you're not just sitting down.

160

So I think a lot of footballers enjoy being physical but without the pressure and the speed that football comes at.

161

But personally I've never played golf.

162

I think I would be truly horrific if I ever tried.

163

One minute!

164

That wasn't so bad.

165

So notice when I did that, I wasn't speaking quickly.

166

I didn't do, golf is a crazy thing and golf is blah blah blah.

167

Calm.

168

You can speak slowly.

169

You can take your time.

170

That is allowed.

171

You don't have to speak really, really quickly.

172

So try it.

173

See what happens.

174

I promise you, if you can do that once a day,

175

so one minute every day, so good, so good.

176

And the last technique I want to tell you about is probably my favourite one.

177

Oh, is this the swap it or describe it rule?

178

You bet it is.

179

So the swap it or describe it rule is basically,

180

when you're speaking and you forget a word,

181

don't think about that word for more than three seconds.

182

If you can't think of the word in three seconds,

183

either swap the word for something different,

184

or try to describe the word that you can't remember.

185

For example, imagine you're speaking about driving and you forget the word for motorway.

186

You can either swap it for the American word,

187

highway, or you can swap it for the German word, autobahn.

188

Or if that fails, describe it.

189

The big road where cars go fast.

190

Or let's say you forget the word profession.

191

You can't think about that word for more than three seconds,

192

but you can swap it for job or career,

193

or you could describe it,

194

that thing you go to every day and you get paid for it.

195

Don't worry about sounding stupid.

196

This is all about practicing flow and building momentum.

197

And there you go.

198

I hope at least one of those techniques will be useful for you.

199

Try them out.

200

Maybe one of them will be completely useless,

201

but the other one will be really really useful for you so try see.

202

The most important thing is that you keep talking,

203

you will never get better at speaking English if you don't speak English,

204

that is the moral of the story.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
