1
there is one quality that separates the people who actually get fluent from the ones who stay stuck
2
it's consistency today we're going to practice
3
that idea in english through shadowing real b2 language real rhythm real pronunciation follow my voice repeat out loud
4
and don't stop before we start
5
if you want daily structured practice at b2 level check out the b2 edge app link in the description.
6
So, here is how today's shadowing session works.
7
First, I will read the full paragraph at natural speed.
8
At this point, just listen, don't repeat anything, just get a feel for the meaning, the rhythm, the way it sounds.
9
Then, we're gonna go sentence by sentence and you will shadow me, repeat everything out loud, as close to my voice as possible.
10
And finally, I'll read the whole thing one last time, and then it's your turn.
11
You read it through completely on your own.
12
Three steps.
13
Ready?
14
Let's go.
15
Consistency is arguably the most underrated quality in personal development.
16
We live in an increasingly distracted world where the temptation to abandon long -term goals for short -term satisfaction is undeniable.
17
The uncomfortable truth is that most people overestimate what they can achieve in a week
18
and remarkably underestimate what they can accomplish in a year of uninterrupted, disciplined effort.
19
Transformation doesn't happen suddenly.
20
It unfolds progressively, almost imperceptibly, through countless unremarkable days where you show up,
21
recommit, and refuse to quit.
22
The truly successful aren't necessarily the most gifted or the most knowledgeable.
23
They're the ones who have learned to strengthen their resolve when motivation disappears, to reframe setbacks as redirection,
24
and to find meaningfulness in the process itself, not just the outcome.
25
Consistency doesn't glamorize the journey.
26
It quietly empowers it.
27
All right, that was the paragraph.
28
You listen to it, right? you got a feel for it.
29
Now, let's actually do the shadowing session.
30
So, I'm going to break it down sentence by sentence.
31
I'm going to read one sentence, you listen to it, process it, and then repeat right after.
32
And then, next sentence, and on and on like that.
33
Ready?
34
Here we go.
35
Consistency is arguably the most underrated quality in personal development.
36
We live in an increasingly distracted world where the temptation to abandon long -term goals for short -term satisfaction is undeniable.
37
The uncomfortable truth is that most people overestimate what they can achieve in a week
38
and remarkably underestimate what they can accomplish in a year of uninterrupted disciplined effort.
39
Transformation doesn't happen suddenly.
40
It unfolds progressively, almost imperceptibly, through countless unremarkable days where you show up,
41
recommit, and refuse to quit.
42
The truly successful aren't necessarily the most gifted or the most knowledgeable.
43
They are the ones who have learned to strengthen their resolve when motivation disappears, to reframe setbacks as redirection,
44
and to find meaningfulness in the process itself, self, not just the outcome.
45
consistency doesn't glamorize the journey it quietly empowers it
46
good very nice now let's do it one more run
47
but now in video i want you to actually look at
48
my face look at my mouth my tongue how you know
49
my muscles of articulation move in order to pronounce especially some words here, all right?
50
So, let's just be a little bit more laser -focused with that practice.
51
So, listen again.
52
Consistency is arguably the most underrated quality in personal development.
53
All right?
54
So, this word is interesting.
55
Repeat after me.
56
Arguably.
57
Arguably.
58
If it's too difficult, try to break it down into two sounds argue -a -blee.
59
As a matter of fact, three sounds, right?
60
Argue -a -blee.
61
Argue -a -blee.
62
And then you start bringing it closer together.
63
Arguably.
64
Arguably.
65
Arguably.
66
All right?
67
This word is also nice.
68
Underrated.
69
Repeat.
70
Underrated.
71
Underrated.
72
So come on.
73
Consistency is arguably the most underrated quality in personal development.
74
Okay, let's continue.
75
The next sentence.
76
We live in an increasingly distracted world where the temptation to abandon long -term goals for short -term satisfaction is undeniable.
77
Okay, a couple of words here.
78
Repeat after me.
79
Come on.
80
Increasingly.
81
Increasingly.
82
By the way, this letter S is pronounced as an S sound.
83
Increasing.
84
Increasingly.
85
Okay?
86
This is an adverb.
87
So, the S has an S sound.
88
Increasingly distracted world.
89
I know the word world can be tricky for some learners, right?
90
Just, again, try to break down the word, yeah?
91
The first part, think about W -O -R.
92
That's wor, wor, wor, okay?
93
And then you're going to raise your tongue for the O, which is the L.
94
So, O, O.
95
You see that?
96
So it's were, oh, were, oh, and then the D,
97
D, so world, world, all right?
98
Don't worry if you need more practice with this one, but, you know, be patient with yourself.
99
It's fine.
100
Let me see if there's another nice word here.
101
The word abandon is a nice advanced word, abandon.
102
Come on, abandon.
103
Abandon.
104
Abandon. And then, undeniable.
105
Undeniable.
106
Very nice.
107
Now, let's continue.
108
Next sentence.
109
The uncomfortable truth is that most people overestimate what they can achieve in a week
110
and remarkably underestimate what they can accomplish in a year of uninterrupted, disciplined effort.
111
okay first of all we have here the uncomfortable truth the
112
word truth here has a voiceless th sound it sounds like a th right
113
so truth truth the uncomfortable truth by the way i'm saying the uncomfortable,
114
the uncomfortable, because uncomfortable starts with a vowel sound, right?
115
So, the article the is pronounced the.
116
Remember that little rule, okay?
117
If after the, the word has a consonant sound, you're going to pronounce the, like the book, the boy, you know?
118
But if it has a vowel sound like uncomfortable, then it turns to the,
119
the uncomfortable, the elephant, the elevator.
120
Okay.
121
So the uncomfortable truth.
122
All right.
123
And remarkably is a great word as well.
124
It's also an adverb.
125
So remarkably, come on, remarkably, remarkably. and uninterrupted.
126
uninterrupted, disciplined, disciplined.
127
Very well, let's move on.
128
Transformation doesn't happen suddenly.
129
It unfolds progressively, almost imperceptibly, through countless unremarkable days where you show up,
130
recommit, and refuse to quit.
131
Very well.
132
If that was too quick for you, just pause the video.
133
Go back to that section.
134
Pause the video if you need more time.
135
Repeat out loud, read it out loud, and then you play it back, right?
136
No worries.
137
But let me just point out here some nice words.
138
Again, we have a couple of adverbs.
139
Progressively.
140
Progressively.
141
Repeat that.
142
Progressively and imperceptibly.
143
Imperceptibly.
144
Very well.
145
I really like the word countless.
146
countless is like numerous.
147
It's so many that you can't even count.
148
So, countless unremarkable days.
149
All right?
150
Come on.
151
Unremarkable.
152
Unremarkable.
153
And then show up, recommit, refuse to quit.
154
All right?
155
Let's move on.
156
The truly successful aren't necessarily the most gifted or the most knowledgeable.
157
This chunk is nice to pronounce, yeah?
158
The truly successful aren't necessarily.
159
You see, are not is being abbreviated here to aren't.
160
I barely pronounced the T actually.
161
I don't say aren't.
162
So I just joined the N for aren't with the N for necessarily.
163
So it sounds like aren't necessarily.
164
Aren't necessarily.
165
Aren't necessarily.
166
So the truly successful aren't necessarily the most gifted or the most knowledgeable.
167
I love this word knowledgeable.
168
I have the root knowledge, which is a noun, and then by adding the suffix able at the end,
169
now that word has become an adjective.
170
Knowledgeable.
171
If you call a person knowledgeable, you mean that person has a lot of knowledge about a specific topic, the most knowledgeable.
172
All right?
173
Moving on.
174
They're the ones who have learned to strengthen their resolve when motivation disappears, to reframe setbacks as redirection,
175
and to find meaningfulness in the process itself, not just the outcome.
176
cool i hope that you pause the video
177
because you know um i think you're gonna need more time for this one
178
so make sure you pause and uh go back listen repeat
179
but this word is awesome strengthen strengthen if you happen to watch the lesson from last week,
180
that was actually a deep dive lesson, one hour plus lesson that I did on word formation.
181
And then in that lesson, we learned the word strengthen, which is the verb for the adjective strong.
182
All right.
183
So to strengthen something means to make something stronger.
184
All right?
185
So, learn to strengthen their resolve.
186
Your resolve is your will, you know, your determination.
187
All right?
188
The pronunciation of the verb.
189
Come on.
190
Strengthen.
191
Strengthen.
192
You see?
193
Again, voiceless TH. So, strengthen.
194
Strengthen.
195
Strengthen.
196
Strengthen their resolve when motivation disappears.
197
The letter S here for disappears also has an S sound.
198
We don't pronounce it like a Z sound, like disappears.
199
No, it's disappears.
200
All right.
201
Think about it this way.
202
The verb, the root verb or word is appear.
203
The prefix is dis.
204
The way I pronounce the prefix alone It's this with an S sound.
205
So, I keep the S sound when I put it together with the root word. So, disappears.
206
Disappears.
207
All right?
208
Setbacks.
209
Awesome word.
210
Setbacks.
211
You know, a setback is when something doesn't happen according to what you planned.
212
You know, you are making progress.
213
You are making progress.
214
You're doing well but then a setback happens.
215
You have a setback.
216
Something happens that delays that progress or stalls that progress for a little while.
217
This is a setback.
218
All right?
219
Then meaningfulness.
220
It's a great word.
221
Meaningful is an adjective.
222
Something is meaningful.
223
The meaningfulness or find meaningfulness, that's the noun.
224
Simply by adding the suffix -ness to the adjective meaningful Now I have the noun meaningfulness.
225
So, find meaningfulness in the process itself, not just the outcome.
226
Let's move on.
227
Consistency doesn't glamorize the journey.
228
It quietly empowers it.
229
A couple of nice words here.
230
Glamorize.
231
Glamorize the verb for glamour, right?
232
So, glamour is the noun.
233
Glamorize is the action, the verb.
234
To glamorize something is to make something more glamorous, okay?
235
And the word here is journey.
236
Pay close attention to the pronunciation of this word.
237
It's not jo, like journey.
238
Journey?
239
No. Juh, juh, journey, journey.
240
Just like the band, the awesome American band, journey, you know?
241
So, juh, juh, journey.
242
Consistency doesn't glamorize the journey.
243
It quietly empowers it.
244
All right?
245
Very nice.
246
Now, I will read one last time the whole paragraph at full speed.
247
Listen carefully.
248
Don't repeat after me for now, okay? then after I'm finished, it's going to be your turn.
249
All right?
250
So here we go.
251
Consistency is arguably the most underrated quality in personal development.
252
We live in an increasingly distracted world where the temptation to abandon long -term goals for short -term satisfaction is undeniable.
253
The uncomfortable truth is that most people overestimate what they can achieve in a week
254
and remarkably underestimate what they can accomplish in a year of uninterrupted, disciplined effort.
255
Transformation doesn't happen suddenly.
256
It unfolds progressively, almost imperceptibly, through countless unremarkable days where you show up,
257
recommit, and refuse to quit.
258
The truly successful aren't necessarily the most gifted or the most knowledgeable.
259
They are the ones who have learned to strengthen the resolve when motivation disappears, to reframe setbacks as redirection,
260
and to find meaningfulness in the process itself, not just the outcome.
261
Consistency doesn't glamorize the journey.
262
It quietly empowers it.
263
all right now it's our turn i'm going to show you
264
the paragraph on screen again pause the video read it through all the way through completely
265
and then come back when you're done
266
Thank you.
267
Very well, look, before I let you go, did you notice how many affixes were hiding in that paragraph?
268
That was on purpose, you know, I have here my notes in front of me, take a look at some of these words.
269
Underrated.
270
undeniable, uninterrupted.
271
You see, all these words are built with the prefix un.
272
What about reframe?
273
Recommit, redirection.
274
All of these are using re, the prefix re.
275
Reframe, recommit, redirection.
276
What about the li suffix for adverbs?
277
Progressively, imperceptibly, remarkably.
278
All these are adverbs built with the suffix li.
279
What about transformation, satisfaction?
280
You see, I'm using the suffix ation.
281
Transformation.
282
Transformation.
283
Satisfaction.
284
And these are nouns, by the way.
285
What about strengthen?
286
Strengthen is a great word.
287
I'm using the suffix and and i'm turning the word strength which is a noun into a verb to strengthen
288
something all right so this paragraph
289
that we worked with today it wasn't just a shadowing exercise

Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
