7
if you do it right in this video i share with
8
you how shadowing improved my english speaking how i practice shadowing and the best resources to start shadowing in English today.
9
First, what is shadowing?
10
Shadowing basically means you listen to a native speaker and try to mimic their way of speaking as much as you can.
11
This improves your listening, speaking,
12
and pronunciation all at once.
13
Why did I start practicing shadowing?
14
I remember when I started learning English about one and a half years ago,
15
I couldn't understand a little bit of English.
16
But when I opened my mouth to speak, Total disaster.
17
I couldn't even introduce myself properly in an important interview in English.
18
It wasn't an interview for a tech job.
19
I did very well in the technical part related to my job.
20
However, I got rejected because of my English.
21
That day, I made a decision.
22
I take English more seriously and learn to speak it no matter what.
23
But I had a huge problem.
24
I had no time for studying.
25
I have my job, my family,
26
and tons of other responsibilities.
27
Yet I said I'll do it even for just 15 minutes a day,
28
even if it takes me years.
29
Because I know slow and steady always wins,
30
and 15 minutes a day is definitely better than nothing.
31
I won't wait until I have time,
32
because if you're getting older like me, you most probably won't.
33
If you're a student, you have a little bit more time.
34
Use it.
35
15 minutes a day is definitely not a long time for language learning,
36
so I had to find an efficient way to do it.
37
The best method I found was shadowing.
38
I searched on YouTube and found this channel, Easy English Practice.
39
I followed their system, one minute conversation,
40
listening to it a few times,
41
looking up any words I didn't know,
42
and after that, practice shadowing.
43
Honestly, after weeks, not even months,
44
I started to see some progress.
45
I started to speak a little bit of English.
46
After that, because I loved English,
47
I added more time to that 15-minute shadowing routine.
48
But shadowing was the jumpstart that I needed first.
49
So if you don't have much time,
50
shadowing, in my humble opinion,
51
is the most efficient way to improve your English,
52
even if you do it for just 15 minutes a day.
53
Well, now I'm not only practicing shadowing.
54
I listen to English daily,
55
I read daily, I practice speaking, and so on.
56
Shadowing alone is not enough,
57
but it's a must in your English learning routine.
58
Now I want to show you how I practice shadowing.
59
But before that, I want to address some of the mistakes that most people make when they practice.
60
Mistake number one, choosing the wrong material.
61
The material you use for shadowing is as important as the practice itself.
62
If the content is too difficult,
63
you won't get a lot out of it.
64
You'll struggle to understand the conversation,
65
you'll start blaming yourself, and you'll think you're not good.
66
But it's not you, it's just the wrong material.
67
It's just the wrong content.
68
Doesn't mean that the material foreshadowing should be too easy?
69
Not at all.
70
If it's too easy, you won't be challenged enough.
71
You won't learn anything new.
72
You won't improve.
73
So what should the right content look like?
74
It should be in the middle,
75
not too easy and not too hard.
76
You should understand around 80 to 90% of what you shadow.
77
That's a sweet spot.
78
Mistake number two, no conscious effort.
79
People often shadow passively, just repeating words without thinking about the meaning,
80
structure, or emotional tone of the sentence.
81
You need to listen carefully first.
82
Rewind the parts you don't understand.
83
Listen actively and shadow actively.
84
Mistake number three, not recording yourself.
85
Getting feedback about your mistakes is most probably the missing piece,
86
especially if you're learning by yourself.
87
That's why you should record yourself and watch it back later.
88
Without listening to your own recordings,
89
you can't hear your mistakes.
90
Mistake number four, not enough repetition.
91
If you just repeat the sentence once and then go to the next one and the next one,
92
just because it feels like progress,
93
you miss the point of shadowing.
94
Repeat the same sentence over and over again until you feel comfortable when you say it.
95
Repeat the same video over a few days.
96
Repetition in language learning is important.
97
And remember, it's not about quantity here.
98
It's about quality.
99
How I practice shadowing.
100
Now let me show you how I practice shadowing to actually improve my English.
101
First, I listen to the video a few times before shadowing.
102
I listen first without subtitles.
103
I rewind and I repeat the sentences that I couldn't understand a few times
104
and do my best to catch every single word.
105
Finally, I turn the subtitles on to verify what I guessed and to check what I missed.
106
Second, I look up the unknown words.
107
I make sure I understand the conversation perfectly.
108
Third, I start doing shadowing in two different ways.
109
First method, listen, pause, and copy.
110
I listen to one sentence,
111
pause the video, and try to repeat it exactly as I heard it.
112
I'm not just repeating it in my way of speaking,
113
using the same pronunciation patterns I'm used to.
114
I try to copy the native speaker as much as I can.
115
If the speaker shouts, I shout.
116
If they laugh, I laugh too.
117
It's not just repeating, it's copying and mimicking.
118
I repeat the same sentence a few times until I feel I can say it comfortably and effortlessly.
119
Do you know what would happen if I suddenly decided to stop going into work?
120
A business big enough that it could be listed on the Nasdaq goes belly up.
121
A business big enough that it could be listed in the NASDAQ goes belly up.
122
A business big enough that it could be listed on the NASDAQ goes belly up.
123
Second method, echo shadowing.
124
Now I repeat what I hear,
125
trying to match the native speaker as much as I can,
126
but without pausing the video.
127
I'll be like an echo.
128
I say what I hear innocently.
129
If you just repeat the sentence once and then go to the next one and the next one,
130
there is maybe less than a second delay between the speaker's voice and my voice.
131
That's why I call it echo shadowing,
132
because you'll become like an echo.
133
To make it even more fun and more challenging,
134
I keep repeating some parts until I can speak at the same time as a native speaker.
135
No delay at all.
136
Don't know who you're talking to,
137
so let me clue you in.
138
I am not in danger, Skyler.
139
I am the danger.
140
A guy opens his door and gets shocked.
141
You think that of me?
142
No. I am the one who knocks.
143
way I've practiced listening, learned new words and practiced shadowing.
144
I don't stop here.
145
Now it's time for the interesting part.
146
I don't practice English with a teacher so I try to identify my mistakes and work on them deliberately.
147
I often record myself and watch it back later to notice my mistakes and get feedback.
148
I want you also to try this.
149
Record yourself shadowing on day one then do it again after 30 days but with the exact same video.
150
The difference will blow your mind.
151
Best resources for shadowing.
152
Working on your listening skills is the first step to improve your speaking.
153
You can improve your listening by listening to an audiobook for free for 30 days.

155
The material you use for shadowing is important so I won't leave you without resources.
156

157
but also not too difficult here are the best youtube channels
158
for shadowing for beginners this list is for intermediate level and this list of channels is for advanced learners

什么是跟读法?
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
