Практика Shadowing: How I Practice English by Myself - Изучайте разговорный английский по видео
Создание урока...
1
Hello everybody, welcome back to another video where I show you how to practice English by yourself at home.
2
Today we're going for a walk. But first I want to show you this view that I have from my window right now.
3
Do you see the ocean? How beautiful is the water? What a gorgeous sunny day.
4
So we are currently in Madeira, we are pet sitting as you can see and we're about to go on our first walk.
5
We're supposed to go down to the pier to the little harbor area.
6
It's a very popular spot because this is a fisherman village and they have lots of boats and cute seafood restaurants around that area.
7
So let's go see it together.
8
Okay, the idea is for you to watch me how I do it.
9
So then the next time you go for a walk, you do it yourself.
10
So you want to just comment on everything you see and try to figure out, do you know these words?
11
Do you not? Because a lot of the times you know these words when you hear them, but you're not able to use them whenever you need them.
12
Hey, are you ready?
13
Okay, so I'm going to put my sunglasses on because it's really sunny outside and I'm also going to put on my cap.
14
I don't want to get a sunstroke or a heat stroke.
15
And I also applied some SPF on my arms and my neck just in case.
16
So when you're putting your clothes on, say what you're doing.
17
When you're putting everything you need in your bag, say what you're putting in your bag.
18
Just comment on everything.
19
You're going to see you thought you knew a lot more words than you do.
20
These little guys are so excited.
21
They think they're going with us, but they're not.
22
Sorry guys, we're going to come back soon.
23
Not this time. We went for a walk already.
24
You guys are good.
25
We played with you.
26
You have food, you have water.
27
We're now locking the door and we're going to take the elevator.
28
So a lot of the times when you're going to do this exercise, you're going to find yourself not knowing some words and that's okay.
29
Just try to explain what that word is and what it does and just like move on.
30
Look at this view.
31
These are all banana trees if I'm not mistaken.
32
Madeira is absolutely gorgeous.
33
So right now we're walking and we're going to go down a very steep road, which means very abrupt like this.
34
Look at this.
35
See how steep that is?
36
So we're going to take these stairs one by one and hopefully we don't fall.
37
There are a lot of lizards, very, very tiny lizards or geckos.
38
I don't think they're geckos.
39
They're lizards.
40
So I have to be careful not to walk on them.
41
Hold on. Look.
42
Okay. Do you see it?
43
So cute. These stairs are made of cobblestone, which is popular here in Portugal.
44
And it's good because you don't slip on these stairs when it's wet because these rocks are very uneven and kind of sharp.
45
So it helps with the grip of your shoes.
46
Wait, in the last video you said the cobblestone is bad because it's uneven.
47
Now you're saying it's good.
48
Well this one is good.
49
That one was not.
50
What do you think about this pathway?
51
Yeah. Why do you like it?
52
I like it because there's stairs and I don't have to go like this because it puts a lot of pressure on knees and stuff.
53
And you can like slip and fall so it's very dangerous.
54
So these steps are probably made by the locals so then you don't slip.
55
But see how steep this is.
56
I don't know if you can see like in comparison to the actual straight line here, how steep this road is.
57
I think it's, I don't know, it's like 45 degrees or something.
58
45?! What is it?
59
15. I don't even know.
60
15? No, maybe it's like 25 degrees.
61
See? Look, it's so steep.
62
Okay there's also a really beautiful river here.
63
Let me show you.
64
Look, it's so beautiful and then there are some bananas over there and that is a banana flower.
65
Okay so Madeira landscape is very hilly.
66
There's a lot of hills.
67
There's a lot of steep roads.
68
There's a lot of narrow streets and the streets have maximum two lanes I believe, unless it's a highway that connects some cities or towns.
69
But we are going down the hill right now towards the water.
70
Oh my god, something smells so good like burned caramel or burnt sugar or something.
71
Is there a restaurant here?
72
Look at these houses.
73
They're literally at the edge of that cliff.
74
The sidewalks in Madeira are very small and they're only on one side of the street because there's not enough space for two sidewalks on each side of the street.
75
Some streets don't even have sidewalks and do you see how all of them just kind of like go in like serpentines like this?
76
So you can't really tell if there's a vehicle coming from around the corner or not.
77
So you have to be very careful.
78
Look at this.
79
So next time you go for a walk in your mind, try to comment on everything that you see, that you feel, that you want.
80
Look at this layering.
81
Seems a little scary.
82
I don't know if these things might fall or not, but look at those cacti and those flowers.
83
So pretty. Everything is just so green and beautiful.
84
I don't know what that is.
85
Some sort of urban island art, but looks kind of creepy to be honest.
86
So again, see how curvy this road is.
87
So we have to go all the way down there.
88
Okay, so there's a crosswalk here.
89
You can go that way, but then if you go back, there isn't a sidewalk over here.
90
And there's a beautiful garden over there and I think that might be a school.
91
So we are getting closer to the center of this small village.
92
So here you start seeing lots of street signs and the roads are a little bit bigger here.
93
And you can see like some small restaurants.
94
Look at that cliff.
95
Do you see how that house is literally built on that rock and it's just so abrupt.
96
There is a tunnel going through this rock.
97
Through this mountain.
98
And can you imagine that Madeira is literally like this.
99
Like the whole island is like this.
100
This is a beautiful roundabout here and they have a monument.
101
I don't know exactly what that is.
102
I would have to go around it and read what's on it.
103
And then we're going to go down the street.
104
As you can see, there aren't any sidewalk crosswalks.
105
So I'm just going to jaywalk. So when you cross the street, not on a crosswalk, it's called jaywalking and you should not be doing that.
106
So another thing that comes up every time I post a video with activities like this is people asking me, well what if I'm making mistakes when I'm talking and there's nobody there to correct me.
107
And I always tell everybody this exercise in particular is not about mistakes.
108
It's about vocabulary, refreshing your vocabulary and practicing it.
109
Dan and I speak English to each other because otherwise we would forget the language.
110
I also practice by posting videos and going live and whatnot.
111
So it's a way for me to maintain my language as well because if I stop speaking English then it'll go away.
112
I've already started noticing my English kind of Oh god, what's that word?
113
Deteriorate?
114
Yes, deteriorate, becoming worse since I left Canada.
115
This dog is for some reason.
116
Hey! Hey! We don't have any food, I'm sorry.
117
Okay, so this is a stray dog.
118
Clearly he isn't with anybody.
119
He's just so happy.
120
He looks well fed.
121
He just decided to show us the way.
122
He's not following us, he's leading us, he's guiding us.
123
Okay doggy, where should we go next?
124
He's a local guide.
125
We found him on TripAdvisor.
126
Where is he?
127
Hi, sweetie!
128
Someone is playing, is that pickleball or padel?
129
I don't know what that is but they are playing it.
130
Literally waited for us and now he started running in front of us again.
131
Where is he going?
132
Are we supposed to follow him?
133
Another thing that you can do if you're not ready to speak in full sentences yet is just to name every object that you see.
134
For example, crosswalk, fence, sidewalk, street sign, traffic lights.
135
Okay, so we are crossing the street now on the crosswalk and look at this view.
136
It's a little bit windy so there is a print museum here in Madeira and look at this printer that they have outside.
137
Look at all those pieces.
138
If you're an engineer and you're learning English, try to name all of the pieces.
139
What do we know?
140
We know keyboard, tube, lever, what else?
141
Knob. Where's the knob?
142
Oh that's a knob, a plaque, a chain, yeah.
143
What is it? A hook?
144
A hook. That is a hook.
145
That is a spring.
146
Okay, so there is a beach club over there.
147
The beaches here are not sandy.
148
Oh my god, look at that.
149
Do you see those houses over there on the hill?
150
On the cliff.
151
So we arrived.
152
This is the little harbor area.
153
Look at those colorful boats there.
154
So we're gonna go and find maybe a place to eat in that area.
155
This place is a volcanic island.
156
Look at this.
157
So gorgeous.
158
I don't know what the colorful floating things are called.
159
If you're talking to somebody from here that is used to this environment, they will probably know what these things are called.
160
But because they're not part of my vocabulary, I don't use them.
161
I don't need that word.
162
I just said, what are those little colorful floating things?
163
And then if I am talking to someone from here, they will tell me.
164
So you use the other person that you're talking to as your dictionary.
165
You just describe the things to them and then they just give you the word.
166
And that's perfectly fine because native speakers do the same thing.
167
And even you in your native language, sometimes you forget the word.
168
Sometimes you don't know some words.
169
But if you know that the person who you're talking to knows it, you're just going to describe it to them and then they're going to give you the term.
170
So this is a pretty popular thing in Portugal, I think.
171
I've seen it before where they do this street art.
172
But it's with metal and plastic and I don't know if it's recycled stuff.
173
But look at this pretty seal.
174
It's so cute.
175
That person is opening the garage doors so the car can get out.
176
And we're just going to go around the sea wall and get to that little harbor area.
177
Look at the waves splashing into the rocks.
178
I think this is a hotel, Pestana Churchill Bay.
179
Because it says reception over there.
180
Oh my God! Look, there's Churchill over there.
181
Look at him.
182
He's so serious.
183
Sounds like little claps.
184
Also, I don't quite understand how this is 16 degrees and it's so warm.
185
Like I feel completely fine with a short sleeve.
186
When 16 degrees anywhere else that I've been was really cold.
187
And I'm by the ocean and it should be breezy and colder.
188
I don't get it.
189
Madeira is known to be the island of the eternal spring because the temperatures don't fluctuate a lot and it's always pretty much just like this.
190
Maybe in winter it gets a little bit colder and then it's also said that this island is the Hawaii of Europe.
191
So I'm really excited to explore more.
192
Okay, so we're back from our walk and this is how you practice English by yourself.
193
Now we're going to grill some chicken and some veggies.
194
And if you want to, when you do that, narrate what you're doing.
195
You're cutting the chicken, you're slicing it, you're putting it on the grill, you're searing it, whatever you're doing.
196
Chopping the vegetables, slicing the onions, tossing the salad.
197
So many things that you think you know, you understand when someone else says that, but you can't use it the same way.
198
I will post more of these vlog style videos hello, quiet please.
199
I'm going to be posting more videos like this where I show you how you can practice your passive vocabulary and turn it into your active vocabulary.
200
So make sure you subscribe and make sure you hit that notification bell so you know when I post a new video.
201
You can check the link in the description for more resources and recommendations from me and I will see you next time.
202
Bye!

Советы по практике
Чтобы улучшить ваше произношение английского, воспользуйтесь методом shadowing, который помогает вам повторять за носителем языка. Смотрите видео и старайтесь параллельно произносить слова и фразы, которые слышите. Обратите внимание на интонацию и ритм речи. Не бойтесь делать паузы и повторять за спикером, чтобы лучше усвоить материал. При этом не стесняйтесь комментировать происходящее вокруг, внедряя новые слова и фразы в ваш ежедневный лексикон.
Применяя советы из этого видео, вы сможете учить английский с YouTube в любое время и в любом месте. Метод shadow speech поможет вам легко адаптироваться к разговорной речи, а также справиться с незнакомыми словами, объясняя их сами себе. Двигайтесь в своем темпе и наслаждайтесь процессом обучения!
Грамматика в этом видео
Конструкции, которые говорящий использует чаще всего, с точными словами из видео:
| Конструкция | В видео |
|---|---|
| Условные предложения if + предложение, will/would + глагол — условие и его результат | if I stop speaking English then it'll go |
| Пассивный залог be + причастие прошедшего времени — важно, что происходит, а не кто это делает | are made · are probably made · are called |
| Present Perfect have/has + причастие прошедшего времени — прошлое действие, важное сейчас | I've already started · I've seen · I've been |
| Придаточные определительные who / which + предложение — уточнение о человеке или предмете | road, which means · cobblestone, which is · person who you |
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.
