Hey English learners, welcome to this A1 English listening practice video. I hope you're doing great. Today we're going to talk about beginner English listening practice content for beginners, people who are at a beginner level in their English learning. If you're not a beginner, if you're a little bit of a higher level, then still watch this video because it will still be useful for you. And at the end, I'm going to ask you something if you're at a higher level. So, watch until the end. So, first of all, what is a beginner? Who is a beginner? when it comes to English learning and listening comprehension.
2
Well, a beginner in general is someone who is new to something, someone who is not very experienced.
3
However, it doesn't always mean that you're starting from zero. that is an absolute beginner. Many beginners are not absolute beginners and they already know uh and have skills in some different areas. And so for listening practice, uh, a beginner might already understand a lot of words, a lot of phrases, but maybe they don't have a lot of experience listening, and they can't understand English when it's spoken quickly. So, who is this video for? When I say this is for beginners, who uh am I talking about? Well, uh if you can't understand fast English and you need uh to listen to content that's slower and clearer, then this is uh the type of content that you will want to listen to. Um, and if you're trying to increase your vocabulary, these types of videos will be very helpful for you. This video will have words that a beginner might not understand. Uh, you might not know some of the words that I'm saying. And this is okay. All right? because we need to learn to use resources that will help us understand content that is a little challenging for us. So for example, you need to learn how to look up words and translate them, define them. These are tools that help us as language learners.
4
So, you shouldn't just say, "Well, I don't know these words, so I can't watch this video." No, you need to learn how to um copy and paste uh new words or write uh these new words into a translator like Word Reference or Google Translate and learn how to uh use these tools to help you understand the content that you're listening to. So, uh, the subtitles also, uh, make a big difference because you can see the words that I'm saying and that should help you when you're looking up words and trying to understand what I'm saying. You can pause uh the video, right, to see the new word uh and then look it up and then maybe rewind, go back and then listen again. It's important to be active when you're practicing your listening. Don't just watch something and say, "H, I don't know that word. I don't know that word. I don't know that word." And not do anything. You should be active. Look up the new words. Try to understand the meaning of what the person is saying.
5
So, uh me for example, uh I'm learning Greek and I do not have a high level of Greek, but I'm trying to get to a higher level. So what I do is I use content that challenges me, content that is higher than my current level, my current knowledge of Greek. So I have to look up words all the time. I have to pause, rewind, look up words, rewind, pause, press play. I do this for hours every week. And I don't use content that I can understand 100%.
6
That's not what I'm interested in. I use content that has words that I don't know that is challenging for me so that I can reach the next level.
7
This is why my A1 videos contain more vocabulary than other beginner content that you'll find uh online. Okay. The reason why I do this is because my philosophy is that you need to actively challenge yourself to learn new words, expand your vocabulary, learn new concepts so that you can reach a higher level. If you only listen to content that contains words that you know, that's not really helping you improve your vocabulary, increase your knowledge. You need to challenge yourself and learn to be active and look up new words. I don't have a high level in Greek, but I'm using native content interviews between two people that uh where the people are speaking fast and it takes me a long time to finish the video uh because I pause, look up words, rewind, look up words, pause, all of that. But I can actually use that content and understand most of it when I'm active and looking up words and it's helping me reach a higher level. That's what you should try to do if you are at the A1 level. If you're a beginner, you should actively try to increase your level of listening, right?
8
So, I like making content that is natural, like this video. It's natural, but it's slow and I uh don't use as much uh vocabulary variations and big words. I use some but not as much. I limit myself and I speak very slowly but this is natural.
9
This does not feel like content from a school textbook that you use in your English class, right? Um, I want you to get used to listening to a person who is speaking naturally like me, slow but natural, right? Um, and some people uh don't like that I do this. They criticize, meaning they talk negatively about my style. Uh, what I just said, that I make A1 videos that are hard. But come on, if you want to get better at something, you need to challenge yourself. In my opinion, if you're at an A1 level, you shouldn't be using A1 content that is super easy for you. How does that help you reach the next level?
10
It doesn't. If you're at an A1 level, you should try your hardest to get to the next level. So, in order to do that, you have to try to expand your vocabulary and listen to things that are harder uh than the normal A1 content and that have more words, more new things.
11
That's how we improve. That's what I'm doing as a language learner. That's what I did for French. That's what I'm doing for Greek. That is how you can improve your listening. Be active. Use resources like translators and you should use this type of challenging content. So yes, uh these videos that I title A1 are harder than the typical A1 video. But there's a reason for that because you don't want to stay at A1, right? You want to go up and reach the next level. That's why I make content like this that is a little more challenging than other A1 content.
12
So, what if this video, this content is easy for you? Well, you need to use harder content. Okay, there's no question about it. If this is easy for you, then you need to use more difficult content. and I make content for [clears throat] everyone for all levels on this channel. Uh you can look at the playlists and see my A2 videos in which I speak a little bit faster and then my B1 videos which are just me speaking at normal speed. Okay. Uh I also have advanced podcast episodes, right? I always leave the link down below if you want to sign up for those. So, I have uh content for more advanced learners as well, but I also had the idea. I don't know if I'm going to do this, but I wanted to mention it to see what you think. I might start doing some live videos in which I speak at normal speed and I can interact a little with my audience. You can write comments, ask questions and I can interact a little bit and answer some questions and it will be native level. I'll be speaking at normal speed. it will be very natural. Um, there won't be subtitles.
13
Uh, but I'm still easier to understand than other native speakers. I'm sure you would agree. So, I think it would still be more um or it'll be easier than other native level content. And I already make native level content like I just mentioned, my B1 content, my advanced episodes. Uh, but I'm kind of interested in trying lives. So, we'll see. Um, if you're interested in that, if you have a higher level and you want that content, uh, tell me in the comments because I'm interested to see if people actually want me to do that or not. I don't know if I will do it, but I wanted to ask to see if people are interested in that.
14
So, tell me what you think.
15
I hope that you enjoyed this video and that you understand this philosophy now of using challenging content, being active, looking up words to help you reach the next level. If you want my advanced podcast episodes, that link is down below. So, click on that. Thank you all for listening and I'll talk to you in the next

Мы обсудим, чем является уровень «начинающий» в изучении английского языка и какие способы помогут вам улучшить восприятие на слух. Даже если вы находитесь на более высоком уровне, материал всё равно будет полезен благодаря медленному и четкому изложению. Вы научитесь работать с новыми словами и фразами, что значительно расширит ваш словарный запас. Это видео нацелено на тех, кто ищет более сложный контент для улучшения своих навыков.

Ключевая лексика и фразы

  • Начинающий - человек, который только начинает изучать английский язык.
  • Слова и фразы - лексика, которую вы будете использовать в повседневной жизни.
  • Скорость речи - важный аспект, который влияет на понимание.
  • Активное обучение - процесс, требующий вашего участия, включая поиск и изучение новых слов.
  • Ресурсы для изучения - инструменты, такие как онлайн-переводчики, которые помогают понимать сложные слова.
  • Задержка и перемотка - полезные действия, которые облегчают восприятие на слух.

Советы по практике

Для успешного использования этого видео и практики shadow speak рекомендуем следовать нескольким простым советам. Во-первых, смотрите видео с активным участием: останавливайте его, чтобы записать или перевести незнакомые слова. Это поможет закрепить новые знания. Во-вторых, постарайтесь имитировать произношение и ритм говорящего — это ключевой аспект метода shadowing. Попробуйте повторить за спикером, даже если вам кажется, что скорость велика. С каждым повторением ваше восприятие на слух будет улучшаться, и вы будете ощущать прогресс. Если вы хотите учить английский с YouTube, используя технику shadow speech, это видео — отличный старт. Не бойтесь ставить под сомнение свои знания и пробовать более сложные материалы для тренировок. Вы по-прежнему сможете видеть слова в субтитрах, что облегчает понимание и запоминание.

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.
