Zinnen om te herhalen

Korte, volledige zinnen uit de video die je in alledaagse gesprekken kunt gebruiken:

  • It's my second year in business.
  • What do you think?
  • You want to grow this?
  • I'm not trying to sell.
  • You want to hire me?

Uitspraak om op te letten

De spreker gebruikt 10 samentrekkingen en verkorte vormen, zoals I'm, I'd, don't. Spreek ze kort uit, zoals je ze hoort.

  • Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: primarily /ˈpɹaɪ.mə.ɹə.li/, opportunity /ˌɒp.əˈtjuː.nɪ.tɪ/, obviously /ˈɑ(b).vi(.)əs.li/

Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:

  • Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: stupid /ˈstjuːpɪd/, grand /ˈɡɹænd/, dude /duːd/, expensive /ɪkˈspɛnsɪv/
  • /g/ — een harde plofklank, geen Nederlandse “g”: exist /ɪɡˈzɪst/, agree /əˈɡɹi/, grand /ˈɡɹænd/, grow /ˈɡɹəʊ/

Zo oefen je met deze video

  1. Luister de hele video één keer zonder te spreken en noteer de woorden die je niet kent.
  2. Begin op 0,75× snelheid, spreek zin voor zin na en ga terug naar normale snelheid zodra het makkelijk gaat.
  3. Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als skill, pitch, hire.

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.
