But before that, if you're new to me, then hi, my name is Hadar.
22
I'm a non-native speaker of English and I'm here to help you speak English with clarity, confidence and freedom.
23
Shadowing and listening exercises are a huge part of the work that I do.
24
I come from a theatre background,
25
And I feel like shadowing and repeating other people's voices is a great way to understand the rhythm,
26
intonation, and stress of the language.

223
Play with your voice.
224
This is a really great exercise to vary your intonation and get you a little uncomfortable with your voice.
225
It's not a bad thing.
226
All right, next part.
227
So I just like got it.

If you don't want me, you can interview someone else.
265
If you don't want me, you can interview someone else.
266
If you don't want me, want, again, you don't pronounce the T.
267
It's like a hell T.
268
If you don't want me, you can, stress on can, because it's not a must.
269
She's not obligated to her.
270
You can interview.
271
T is dropped.
272
Interview someone else.
273
That's totally fine.
274
That's totally fine.

280
I don't.
281

290
Flat, flat, flat, flat, flat, trying to get in a lot of information really quickly.
291
And now you're gonna try it again.
292
I did go to Yale, 3.86 GPA, lead soprano of the whiff and poofs and my ACT score was 36 on the very first.

313
We played with a pitch.
314
We listened to fast English.
315
You checked your comprehension.
316
A lot of stuff in one episode.
317
I hope this helped you.
318
If you like this type of video, let me know in the comments.
319
And if you watched The Devil Wears Prada 2, don't tell me anything because I haven't watched it yet and I'm planning on going with my daughters.
320
So, if you want to practice more pronunciation and more shadowing, I'm going to link more resources in the description below.
321
And I want to invite you to my pronunciation masterclass where
322
I teach you how to do all of those things and more in one hour.
323
And I'm going to be teaching things that I only share with my students.
324
So it's going to be a lot of fun.
325
I hope to see you there.
326
In the meantime, have a beautiful, beautiful rest of the week and I'll see you next week in the next video.
327

- I'm happy to have you.
- Did you get it?
- Just so you know, I didn't know that before.

Uitspraak om op te letten
De spreker gebruikt 112 samentrekkingen en verkorte vormen, zoals don't, I'm, didn't. Spreek ze kort uit, zoals je ze hoort.
- De klanken “sh” en “zh”: pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, comprehension /ˌkɑmpɹɪˈhɛnʃn̩/, intonation /ɪntəˈneɪʃən/
- Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, intonation /ɪntəˈneɪʃən/, uncomfortable /ʌnˈkʌm.fɚ.tə.bl̩/
Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:
- Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: transcribe /trænˈskɹaɪb/, blend /blɛnd/
- /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: soprano /səˈpɹænoʊ/, transcribe /trænˈskɹaɪb/, blank /ˈblæŋk/, clarity /ˈklæɹ.ɪ.ti/
Zo oefen je met deze video
- Luister de hele video één keer zonder te spreken en noteer de woorden die je niet kent.
- Begin op 0,75× snelheid, spreek zin voor zin na en ga terug naar normale snelheid zodra het makkelijk gaat.
- Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als intern, pronunciation, whiff.
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.
