1
Everyone says the best way to practice English is to just talk to people.
2
And that's true.
3
But there is what nobody tells you.
4
The moment someone looks at you and says,
5
so tell me about yourself.
6
That is actually one of the hardest things to do.
7
Not just in the second language, in any language.
8
Not because it's complicated.
9
My name is, I'm from,
10
I like, I do not like.
11
You've known these sentences for years,
12
but when there's a real person in front of you waiting for your answer, something happens.
13
You have imagined this situation a hundred times,
14
and in your head you were perfectly fluent.
15
But what do I say to this particular person?
16
Where should I start?
17
When the moment actually comes and you either just stare at the person in silence,
18
or something comes out but it sounds nothing like it did in your mind,
19
that feeling is so common and so frustrating.
20
So in this video, you're gonna practice exactly that situation.
21
Two people meet on the first day at a language school.
22
They don't know each other and they start talking and you're going to speak along with one of them,
23
not after, at the same time.
24
That is shadowing.
25
It trains your mouth to produce natural English automatically, even under pressure.
26
Today we're gonna practice it together.
27
We will start with a few words you need to know,
28
then we'll listen to the conversation together and then we do it again.
29
But this time you speak along with one of the speakers out loud,
30
not in your head.
31
One thing I want to know before we start,
32
what is your English level today?
33
Is it A1?
34
Is it A2?
35
Is it B2?
36
Tell me in the comments.
37
I want to see.
38
Now let's get to know a few words that you're gonna hear in this conversation.
39
This will make it much easier when we listen.
40
Our first word is hometown.
41
Your hometown is the city or town where you were born or where you grew up.
42
For example, my hometown is a small city in the south of Brazil. to move.
43
To move means to go and start living in a different place.
44
For example, I moved here three months ago.
45
Then we have nervous.
46
When you feel nervous, you feel worried or unsure about something that is about to happen.
47
For example, I am a little nervous.
48
It is my first day.
49
Next dream job.
50
Your dream job is the job you would love to have more than any other job in the world?
51
For example, working with animals is my dream job.
52
Then frustrating.
53
Something is frustrating when it makes you feel annoyed because it is difficult.
54
For example, forgetting words in the middle of a sentence is very frustrating.
55
Next, to miss.
56
To miss someone means to feel sad because that person is not with you anymore.
57
For example, I miss my family a lot.
58
Then, free time.
59
Free time is the time when you are not working or studying.
60
Time just for yourself.
61
For example, in my free time,
62
I like to cook and watch movies.
63
Next, a hobby.
64
A hobby is something you enjoy doing regularly when you are not working or studying.
65
For example, my hobby is playing the guitar.
66
Then to relax.
67
To relax means to rest and stop thinking about work or problems.
68
For example, reading helps me relax in the evening.
69
Next, neighborhood.
70
Your neighborhood is the area around your home,
71
the streets and buildings near where you live.
72
For example, my neighborhood is very quiet.
73
I really like it.
74
Then to eat out.
75
To eat out means to go to a restaurant instead of cooking at home.
76
For example, sometimes I am too tired to cook, so I eat out.
77
Next, favorite.
78
Your favorite thing is the one you like the most out of everything.
79
For example, my favorite food is rice and beans.
80
Then to order.
81
To order means to ask for food or a drink in a restaurant or by phone.
82
For example, when I am too tired to cook, I just order pizza.
83
Next colleague.
84
A colleague is a person you work with.
85
For example, my colleagues talk very fast in meetings and sometimes I do not understand everything.
86
Then to translate.
87
Do translate means to change words from one language into another.
88
For example, Right now, I translate everything in my head before I speak.
89
It is very slow.
90
Next, to get used to something.
91
When you get used to something,
92
you slowly start to feel comfortable with it.
93
For example, I am getting used to the food here and I really like it now.
94
Then to practice.
95
To practice means to do something many times so you get better at it.
96
For example, we can practice English together after class.
97
Next, lazy.
98
When someone is lazy, they do not want to work or move.
99
For example, my cats are very lazy.
100
They sleep all day long.
101
Then similar.
102
Similar means almost the same but not exactly.
103
For example, we have a similar problem.
104
We both find speaking difficult.
105
And our last word for today is to promise.
106
When you promise something, you say that it is definitely true or will definitely happen.
107
For example, the first months are hard, but it gets better.
108
I promise.
109
Before we listen, I want to tell you about something quickly.
110
If you're watching this video,
111
you are probably at the very beginning of your English journey.
112
Or maybe you have been studying for a while,
113
but things still feel unclear and you're not sure why.
114
Our elementary to intermediate course was made for exactly that stage.
115
Vinay is one of my best friends and one of the most amazing English teachers I know.
116
The course covers the things that stay confusing for a long time.
117
Articles, tenses, pronunciation, everyday vocabulary, phrasal words.
118
And the whole point is that you practice using all of that,
119
not just memorizing rules.
120
Vanya's lessons feel nothing like school.
121
Real examples, humor, explanations that actually stick from a relatable person.
122
You also get a study partner,
123
homework that is checked, and a certificate you can put on your resume.
124
Over 10,000 people have taken it.
125
The link is in the description.
126
Now, let's listen to the conversation.

Sobre Esta Aula
Nesta aula, você terá a oportunidade de praticar a prática de conversação em inglês em uma situação comum: apresentar-se a alguém que você acabou de conhecer. Esse exercício é fundamental porque, muitas vezes, mesmo sabendo o que dizer, a pressão de uma conversa real pode deixar você nervoso. Vamos explorar como o shadow speech funciona na prática, ajudando você a gerar respostas de forma mais natural e confiante. Além disso, você praticará no ritmo e tom de uma conversa real, ampliando suas habilidades de fala e compreensão.
Vocabulário e Frases-Chave
- Hometown: A cidade ou pueblo onde você nasceu ou cresceu. Por exemplo, "Minha hometown é uma cidade pequena no sul do Brasil."
- To move: Mudar-se para outro lugar. Exemplo: "Eu mudei para cá há três meses."
- Nervous: Sentir-se ansioso ou inseguro sobre algo. Por exemplo: "Estou um pouco nervoso. É meu primeiro dia."
- Dream job: O emprego dos seus sonhos, aquele que você gostaria de ter. Exemplo: "Meu dream job é ser professor."
- First day: Refere-se ao primeiro dia em um novo ambiente, como uma escola ou trabalho. "Hoje é meu first day na escola de idiomas."
Dicas de Prática
Durante a prática de shadow speech, é importante que você se concentre em acompanhar a fala de maneira rápida e fluente, mas sem se pressionar demais. Aqui estão algumas dicas específicas para ajudá-lo a praticar efetivamente:
- Escute atentamente: Antes de começar a repetir, ouça a conversa uma ou duas vezes para familiarizar-se com o tom e a velocidade dos falantes.
- Repita em voz alta: Quando for fazer o shadowspeak, não se limite a pensar. Fale em voz alta, imitando a pronúncia e a entonação.
- Não tenha medo de errar: O foco aqui é melhorar, então se algo não sair perfeito, continue praticando. A prática leva à perfeição!
- Grave suas práticas: Ouvir sua própria voz pode ajudar você a identificar áreas que precisam de melhorias, especialmente para melhorar a pronúncia em inglês.
- Pratique regularmente: Quanto mais você praticar a prática de conversação em inglês, mais confiante se tornará.
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.
