Hello everyone!

Welcome to Slow English.

The podcast is for English learners who want to speak English more naturally and confidently.

My name is Tom.

I'll be the host of the podcast today and hopefully many other podcasts in the future.

In today's episode, we're going to talk about something very simple but very powerful.

I will be speaking slowly and clearly,

so you can follow me and repeat after me.

Through this video, you can practice your listening skills and also your pronunciation skills by copying me.

So if you shadow me,

for example, shadowing means to copy something.

In English, this means to listen to someone speaking and then try to copy the sounds they make.

Some people will call it the listen and repeat method,

but it is basically the same thing.

You listen to the audio,

and then you repeat what you heard.

So if you do that,

then you can practice your pronunciation.

Before we start, if there are any words that you don't understand or that you couldn't really hear clearly,

just check the subtitles.

If you're just listening on headphones on another platform,

Then you can go to YouTube,

look in the description and download the transcript or just look at the subtitles.

So in today's podcast, I'm going to talk about the first time

when I'll introduce myself to you guys and I'll tell you about slow English.

Firstly, well, very nice to meet you.

My name is Tom.

Maybe you've seen me in videos on Facebook or TikTok.

You know, those of you who have seen me in different places,

I wanted to make this podcast to connect with you guys on a personal level.

So if there's anything, by the way,

you have any suggestions, you can just comment.

But anyway, I'm getting a little bit off topic now.

I made this podcast to help English learners,

specifically English learners for beginners,

and it's mostly for upper beginner and above learners.

But for higher level learners,

you can start listening to native content.

And that is why I made this podcast.

So I want to tell you guys about the journey from making Facebook and TikTok up until now,

because I could not believe how many people started following and watching my Facebook and TikTok channels.

I started putting out some videos on Facebook and I thought,

oh, you know, if I could get a few followers and a few views,

that would be cool.

I didn't expect much, to be honest,

but I had the goal of making more really useful videos.

That could help English learners learn English easily and naturally.

So I made the first video and didn't get too many views,

maybe I think 100 or something.

And I spent the day uploading the video on Facebook when I was at a cafe.

Then I started driving home.

I didn't think too much about it.

And then I opened the app on my phone and saw how many views the video has.

And I did that.

And then I saw it was like 5000 likes or something.

And that was after about a few minutes.

And so, I was thinking, something's wrong.

Not only that, but a lot of people were following.

And then every time I refreshed the page,

there were like thousands more views.

And so, I was shocked.

To be completely honest, I did not expect that to happen.

So I kept refreshing, and then there were more and more and more.

And I was like, what is going on?

I have like 10,000 followers and 15,000.

It was exploding.

And then so well, I kept on uploading videos.

Because again, I had all of these ideas in my head.

And I thought many English learners could really benefit from this.

It could be really useful for them.

And so apparently, you know, people liked it.

And I was very happy about that.

And so I made videos for about,

sorry, I'm talking a bit fast.

And so I made videos for about six months consistently.

To be honest, I can't really remember.

A bunch of followers and a bunch of views.

Some videos did much better than others.

But then I stopped making videos because I had made a lot of videos.

I had a lot of people follow me.

I had a decent sized Facebook group.

I think the video is not helpful and interesting enough for English learners.

And I think TikTok and Reels,

those short videos, I think they're useful for learning.

But if you really want to learn,

you need to have more.

And to be honest, I don't even really like TikTok.

I don't like the whole short content thing going on,

how everyone is pretty much addicted to short content.

I see it like cake,

you know, it's like really sweet, it's delicious.

And when you eat it,

you want to eat more.

And when you eat it,

your brain gets that dopamine,

and you feel really good, right?

And so it makes other foods not so appealing.

And I see short content kind of like that.

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.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
