Shadowing Practice: KET 2 O TEST 4 PART 3 - Learn English Speaking with Video

You will hear Linda talking to her friend Alex about her new job.

Alex, I'm so excited.

I started my new job on Monday.

Congratulations!

So do you drive there every day?

No need.

It's a ten -minute walk, and if it rains, I take the bus.

There's a bus stop just outside the office.

You're lucky.

I spend so much time and money driving to work.

But that's not my problem.

Now you have left the office, I have no one to talk to.

Everyone's so boring.

I know, that's one of the main reasons I left.

And the money, of course.

£19 ,500 was good. But...

£22 ,500 is better and I save another £3 ,000 as I'm closer to home.

Do you still answer calls and send emails?

I do, but I also have to be with the manager when he's in a meeting.

It's tiring, but so much better than sitting at my desk all day.

Well, Linda, I'd love to do that.

I wish Miss Pierce would give us something new to work on.

Why don't you talk to her?

She'd never change her mind.

I think I'd better do what you did.

I couldn't agree more.

Now, listen again.

That is the end of part three.

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.
