Shadowing practice
  • Listen once straight through to catch the overall rhythm and feeling.
  • Play one sentence, pause, and repeat it aloud while matching sound, stress, and linking.
  • Shadow in sync with the audio, copying the speaker’s pacing and intonation even if you stumble.
  • Notice natural pauses and breaths; try to inhale and exhale where the speaker does.
  • Record yourself and compare quickly to the original, adjusting volume and clarity.
  • Loop any tricky line until it flows, then jot down phrases you want to reuse later.

Tip: Keep sessions short—five focused minutes beats one unfocused listen.
