Shadowing English C1 – Advanced Videos

At C1 the goal is no longer understanding but sounding natural. These videos include lectures, expert interviews, podcasts and unscripted conversation with idioms, humour and fast connected speech. Shadowing them refines your accent, rhythm and register so you can speak fluently and spontaneously in academic and professional settings.

Work on a whole paragraph at a time and try to match the speaker's timing exactly. Choose a target accent and stay with it: the British accent and American accent collections make that easy. Read our shadowing technique guide for advanced drills, then challenge yourself with C2 proficiency videos.
