Hello everyone!
2
Welcome to Slow English.
3
The podcast is for English learners who want to speak English more naturally and confidently.
4
My name is Tom.
5
I'll be the host of the podcast today and hopefully many other podcasts in the future.
6
In today's episode, we're going to talk about something very simple but very powerful.
7
I will be speaking slowly and clearly,
8
so you can follow me and repeat after me.
9
Through this video, you can practice your listening skills and also your pronunciation skills by copying me.
10
So if you shadow me,
11
for example, shadowing means to copy something.
12
In English, this means to listen to someone speaking and then try to copy the sounds they make.
13
Some people will call it the listen and repeat method,
14
but it is basically the same thing.
15
You listen to the audio,
16
and then you repeat what you heard.
17
So if you do that,
18
then you can practice your pronunciation.
19
Before we start, if there are any words that you don't understand or that you couldn't really hear clearly,
20
just check the subtitles.
21
If you're just listening on headphones on another platform,
22
Then you can go to YouTube,
23
look in the description and download the transcript or just look at the subtitles.
24
So in today's podcast, I'm going to talk about the first time
25
when I'll introduce myself to you guys and I'll tell you about slow English.
26
Firstly, well, very nice to meet you.
27
My name is Tom.
28
Maybe you've seen me in videos on Facebook or TikTok.
29
You know, those of you who have seen me in different places,
30
I wanted to make this podcast to connect with you guys on a personal level.
31
So if there's anything, by the way,
32
you have any suggestions, you can just comment.
33
But anyway, I'm getting a little bit off topic now.
34
I made this podcast to help English learners,
35
specifically English learners for beginners,
36
and it's mostly for upper beginner and above learners.
37
But for higher level learners,
38
you can start listening to native content.
39
And that is why I made this podcast.
40
So I want to tell you guys about the journey from making Facebook and TikTok up until now,
41
because I could not believe how many people started following and watching my Facebook and TikTok channels.
42
I started putting out some videos on Facebook and I thought,
43
oh, you know, if I could get a few followers and a few views,
44
that would be cool.
45
I didn't expect much, to be honest,
46
but I had the goal of making more really useful videos.
47
That could help English learners learn English easily and naturally.
48
So I made the first video and didn't get too many views,
49
maybe I think 100 or something.
50
And I spent the day uploading the video on Facebook when I was at a cafe.
51
Then I started driving home.
52
I didn't think too much about it.
53
And then I opened the app on my phone and saw how many views the video has.
54
And I did that.
55
And then I saw it was like 5000 likes or something.
56
And that was after about a few minutes.
57
And so, I was thinking, something's wrong.
58
Not only that, but a lot of people were following.
59
And then every time I refreshed the page,
60
there were like thousands more views.
61
And so, I was shocked.
62
To be completely honest, I did not expect that to happen.
63
So I kept refreshing, and then there were more and more and more.
64
And I was like, what is going on?
65
I have like 10,000 followers and 15,000.
66
It was exploding.
67
And then so well, I kept on uploading videos.
68
Because again, I had all of these ideas in my head.
69
And I thought many English learners could really benefit from this.
70
It could be really useful for them.
71
And so apparently, you know, people liked it.
72
And I was very happy about that.
73
And so I made videos for about,
74
sorry, I'm talking a bit fast.
75
And so I made videos for about six months consistently.
76
To be honest, I can't really remember.
77
A bunch of followers and a bunch of views.
78
Some videos did much better than others.
79
But then I stopped making videos because I had made a lot of videos.
80
I had a lot of people follow me.
81
I had a decent sized Facebook group.
82
I think the video is not helpful and interesting enough for English learners.
83
And I think TikTok and Reels,
84
those short videos, I think they're useful for learning.
85
But if you really want to learn,
86
you need to have more.
87
And to be honest, I don't even really like TikTok.
88
I don't like the whole short content thing going on,
89
how everyone is pretty much addicted to short content.
90
I see it like cake,
91
you know, it's like really sweet, it's delicious.
92
And when you eat it,
93
you want to eat more.
94
And when you eat it,
95
your brain gets that dopamine,
96
and you feel really good, right?
97
And so it makes other foods not so appealing.
98
And I see short content kind of like that.
99
It makes us really used to getting that quick hit of a good feeling and then going to the next one.
100
And many people have talked about this,
101
so I'm not going to talk about it too much.
102
but what I wanted to do was create something bigger create something more useful
103
and
104
so that's what I'm working on right now I'm not going
105
to talk too much about it I will announce it in the future
106
so I started spending my time making the videos and those videos on Facebook or TikTok
107
they take a lot of time for me to think about what the video will be about,
108
to film it and to edit it because I didn't have a team.
109
I was doing everything by myself.
110
And so it took me a lot, a lot of time.
111
And I realized if I wanted to create something bigger and better,
112
then I needed to sacrifice something to have more time.
113
And so, I put short videos on pause,
114
and I'm working on something else.
115
Alright, I'm looking at my notes here,
116
because I made a bit of a plan for this podcast.
117
So, guys, what can you expect from this channel and from Slow English?
118
Well, on this channel I plan to upload content 3 or 4 times a week for a long video.
119
I want to focus more on long videos that are really high quality and really useful.
120
So you guys can learn, right?
121
Whenever I'm making a video,
122
I'm always thinking about you guys.
123
I'm thinking like, okay, what would be useful for them?
124
What would they watch?
125
And also be entertained by.
126
Because, you know, when you learn English,
127
you also have to have fun.
128
And if it's purely educational,
129
like someone in front of a whiteboard,
130
just writing, you know, this and this, then you feel bored.
131
And while it is very educational,
132
I think entertainment is crucial.
133
Especially these days when we can easily go to something else and be entertained.
134
So, yeah, that's what you can expect from this channel is videos each week.
135
And if there's anything you guys want to learn,
136
please just put a comment in the description.
137
I will read them and I will listen to your feedback for sure.
138
I don't want to ramble on and kind of bore you with talking.
139
So I don't think this podcast will be very long.
140
And I just want to introduce you guys to myself,
141
to Slow English, and to my new channel.
142
Let me know what you want to see.
143
So, thank you so much for watching,
144
and I'll see you next time.
145
Goodbye for now.
146
Your progress doesn't end here.

Почему полезно говорить с этим видео?

Практика говорения с видео, подобным этому, является одним из самых эффективных способов улучшения ваших навыков в английском языке. Используя метод shadowspeak, вы можете развить уверенность в общении и сделать вашу речь более естественной. Этот подкаст разработан специально для изучающих английский язык. Говоря вместе с репликами ведущего, вы не только слушаете, но и активно участвуете в процессе изучения. Метод shadowing позволяет вам сконцентрироваться на произношении, интонации и ритме, что критически важно для понимания и общения на английском языке.

Грамматика и выражения в контексте

  • Listen and repeat — это ключевая фраза, подчеркивающая метод, который мы используем. Повторяя услышанное, вы улучшаете свое произношение и активируете память.
  • Very nice to meet you — распространенная фраза для приветствия. Она помогает установить теплое взаимодействие при первом знакомстве.
  • For higher level learners — структура, говорящая о том, что разные учебные материалы могут быть полезны в зависимости от уровня говорящего.

Изучая эти конструкции вместе с примерами, вы сможете лучше понять, как использовать их в своих собственных разговорах и создать более плавное восприятие языка.

Распространенные ловушки произношения

Зачастую изучающие английский язык сталкиваются с трудностями в произношении определенных слов или звуков. В этом видео стоит обратить внимание на слова listen и repeat, которые требуют четкого произношения звуков «l» и «r». Также трудно может быть различить интонацию и ритм, когда собеседник говорит быстро. Используя подход shadow speak и повторяя за ведущим, вы сможете преодолеть эти трудности.

Напоминаем, что практикуя с видео и прослушивая разные акценты, вы можете улучшить не только произношение, но и понимание различных диалектов. Также, если вы хотите учить английский с YouTube, не забывайте проверять субтитры, чтобы уточнить слова или фразы, которые вы не поняли с первого раза.

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.
