If you're trying to improve your speaking 20 times faster for your IELTS speaking test, this video is exactly what you need.
2
There's a powerful technique that helps you sound natural, confident, and fluent.

It's called shadowing.

8
Then, you'll listen to a full model answer that shows how a fluent speaker would respond.
9
After that, we'll go step by step so you can repeat and focus on pronunciation, intonation and rhythm.
10
And finally, we'll do a complete shadowing round where you'll follow along with the full answer in real time, matching my pace, tone and flow.

Uitspraak om op te letten
De spreker gebruikt 24 samentrekkingen en verkorte vormen, zoals I'd, I'm, you'll. Spreek ze kort uit, zoals je ze hoort.
- De “th”-klanken: rhythm /ˈɹɪð.əm/, smoothly /ˈsmuːðli/, thoughtful /ˈθɔːtfəl/, enthusiastic /ɪnˌθjuːzɪˈæstɪk/
- De klanken “sh” en “zh”: pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, satisfaction /sætɪsˈfækʃən/, intonation /ɪntəˈneɪʃən/, ambitious /æmˈbɪʃ.əs/
- Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, satisfaction /sætɪsˈfækʃən/, collaborate /kəˈlæb.ə.ɹeɪt/, coordinate /koʊˈɔɹ.dəˌneɪt/, creativity /kri.eɪˈtɪv.ᵻ.ti/
Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:
- Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: analyze /ˈæn.əˌlaɪz/, organize /ˈɔɹɡənaɪz/, colleague /ˈkɒliːɡ/, supportive /səˈpɔɹtɪv/, nowadays /ˈnaʊ.ə.deɪz/
- /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: satisfy /ˈsætɪsfaɪ/, satisfaction /sætɪsˈfækʃən/, collaborate /kəˈlæb.ə.ɹeɪt/, analyze /ˈæn.əˌlaɪz/, transform /tɹænsˈfɔɹm/
- /g/ — een harde plofklank, geen Nederlandse “g”: organize /ˈɔɹɡənaɪz/, colleague /ˈkɒliːɡ/, grammar /ˈɡɹæm.ə(ɹ)/
Zo oefen je met deze video
- Luister de hele video één keer zonder te spreken en noteer de woorden die je niet kent.
- Spreek zin voor zin na op normale snelheid en herhaal elke zin tot je ritme gelijk is aan dat van de spreker.
- Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als satisfy, teamwork, pronunciation.
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.
