Vocabulary and speaking notes for this lesson
This B1 speaking lesson is built on the video “Erika - I Don't Know”. This video has 21 sentences and 219 words to shadow. The speech runs for 2:59. The speaker talks slowly, about 73 words per minute, so there is time to copy every sound. Only 76% of the words are among the 3,000 most common in English, so the vocabulary is demanding. 6 of its 21 sentences are questions, so it is good practice for question intonation and short answers.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
