Hello everyone!
2
Welcome to Everyday English with Ember.
3
I am so happy you are here today, and today we are starting something very special together.
4
The 90-day English Shadowing Challenge.
5
90 days, one video, every day, 10 minutes each, and by the end,
6
you will speak English more naturally than you ever imagined.
7
So let us talk about what we are doing.
8
What is shadowing?
9
Shadowing is a very simple but very powerful way to practice English.
10
I say Say a sentence, you listen first.
11
You feel the rhythm, the sound, the way the words flow together.
12
Then I say it again, and you speak with me.
13
Same voice, same speed, same feeling.
14
That is it.
15
Listen, then speak with me.
16
But why does it work?
17
your brain learns language by doing, not just by reading or watching.
18
When you speak out loud, your mouth learns the shape of English words, your ears learn the music of the language,
19
and slowly, day by day, it starts to feel natural.
20
Think about how babies learn to speak.
21
They listen, they repeat.
22
They listen again, they repeat again.
23
And one day, it just flows.
24
Shadowing is the same idea.
25
And the best part?
26
You can do this anywhere.
27
While you're walking.
28
While you're cooking.
29
While you're on the bus in the morning.
30
You do not need a classroom.
31
You do not need a teacher sitting next to you.
32
You just need your voice.
33
10 minutes.
34
Give those 10 minutes to your English every single day for 90 days, and something remarkable happens.
35
You stop translating in your head, words come faster, sentences feel natural,
36
and the English you always wanted to speak starts to feel completely yours.
37
Before we start, let me explain exactly how this works.
38
I say each sentence three times.
39
The first time, your only job is to listen.
40
Don't speak yet, just listen carefully.
41
Notice how I pronounce each word.
42
Notice the rhythm.
43
Notice where I stress.
44
Notice how the words connect and flow together.
45
The second time, you speak with me, not after me, with me,
46
at the same time, matching my tone, my speed, my feeling.
47
The third time, you speak with me again, this time even more confident,
48
even more natural, even more like one voice.
49
That's all.
50
Ready?
51
I believe in myself.
52
I believe in myself.
53
I believe in myself.
54
You are already doing it.
55
That is your English getting stronger right now.
56
Every day I get a little better.
57
Every day, a little better, that is all it takes, and you are proving it right now.
58
I am proud of myself for showing up today.
59
Save that one and mean it, because it is true, you showed up, that matters more than you know.
60
My voice matters and I am learning to use it.
61
My voice matters and I am learning to use it.
62
Your voice matters, in English, in any language, it always has.
63
I choose to keep going,
64
even on the difficult days.
65
Keep going.
66
Those words, choose them every single morning, and watch what happens.
67
Speaking English is a skill, and I am building it right now.
68
Speaking English is a skill, and I am building it right now.
69
Right now, not someday, not when you feel ready, right now in this moment you are building it.
70
I am not in a race.
71
I am on a journey.
72
There's no competition here, no comparison, just you and your journey moving forward at your own beautiful pace.
73
Every sentence I say out loud makes me stronger.
74
Every sentence I say out loud makes me stronger.
75
Every sentence I say out loud makes me stronger.
76
Feel that.
77
Every sentence, including this one, including the ones you said quietly or imperfectly, all of them make you stronger.
78
I am becoming more confident one day at a time.
79
I am becoming more confident,
80
one day at a time.
81
One day at a time, not 90 days all at once, just today, just this, just now.
82
I give myself permission to make mistakes because mistakes mean I'm trying.
83
I give myself permission to make mistakes because mistakes mean I'm trying.
84
I give myself permission to make mistakes because mistakes mean I'm trying.
85
This is so important.
86
Mistakes are not failure.
87
Mistakes are proof that you are brave enough to try, and trying is everything.
88
The more I practice, the more natural English feels.
89
The more I practice, the more natural English feels.
90
The more I practice, the more natural English feels.
91
You felt it just now, didn't you?
92
That sentence felt a little more natural than sentence one.
93
That is the practice working.
94
Already.
95
I am capable of things I have not even tried yet.
96
I am capable of things I have not even tried yet.
97
I am capable of things I have not even tried yet.
98
Things you have not even tried yet.
99
That thought alone, hold on to it, because it is completely true.
100
90 days from now, I will be glad I started today.
101
90 days from now, I will be glad I started today.
102
90 days from now, I will be glad I started today.
103
Say that one more time and really feel it.
104
90 days from now, you will be glad you started today.
105
Because you will be, I promise.
106
And that is day one.
107
Thirteen sentences said out loud by you.
108
Your mouth spoke English today thirteen times, and every single time it got a little more natural.
109
That is how this works.
110
Come back tomorrow, same time, same place, ten minutes, and little by little,
111
day by day, your English will become exactly what you want it to be.

Why This 90-Day Shadowing Challenge Is a Game-Changer for Your English

If you’re hunting for english speaking practice that actually sticks, this video is your new best friend. What makes it stand out? It’s simple, actionable, and built on the shadowing technique—a method that mimics how babies learn language: listen, repeat, and let your brain and mouth adapt. No complicated rules, just 10 minutes a day. Whether you’re using a shadowing app or just your phone, this clip turns "I can’t" into "I can" by focusing on rhythm, flow, and natural speech.

Breaking Down the Magic: What Makes the Dialogue Sound So Natural

Let’s pull back the curtain on a few lines that make this practice gold. First: "I am so happy you are here today, and today we are starting something very special together." Notice how "you are" connects to "you’re" (even if not fully contracted) and "and today we are" flows smoothly—no pauses, just natural linking. Next: "Shadowing is a very simple but very powerful way to practice English." The stress on "simple" and "powerful" creates rhythm, making it easy to mimic. Then: "You do not need a classroom. You do not need a teacher sitting next to you." The repetition of "You do not need" builds familiarity, while the casual tone (no formal "You don’t") keeps it relatable. These small details are why the speech feels real, not scripted.

Your Daily Practice Routine: Master Shadow Speech in 3 Steps

Ready to turn this video into progress? Try this shadowing technique loop:

  1. Listen first: Play the video once, focusing on how words connect (e.g., "same voice" becomes "samvoice" in fast speech). Note the tone—Ember sounds excited, so match that energy.
  2. Shadow with confidence: Play the clip again, speaking at the same time (not after). Use a shadowing app to record yourself—hearing your voice alongside the video helps spot gaps in speed or tone.
  3. Repeat and refine: Do the "3rd time" practice from the video, then record yourself solo. Compare it to the original—you’ll notice your shadowspeak getting smoother!
Do this for 10 minutes daily, and you’ll stop translating in your head. Words will flow, sentences will feel natural, and you’ll wonder why you didn’t start sooner. Remember: consistency beats perfection. Even 5 minutes of focused shadow speech a day will make a difference.

Whether you’re using a app or just your phone, the key is to speak—not just listen. This challenge isn’t about being perfect; it’s about getting comfortable. So hit play, start shadowing, and watch your English transform, day by day.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
