Hello my friends. Welcome back to
English Fluency Teacher. In today's
practice, we're going to keep the power
of shadowing, but we will change the
style. Instead of only shadowing simple
I sentences, you will shadow real
questions and natural answers like in
real conversations.
Shadowing is actually one of the most
powerful ways to train your mouth, your
ears, and your brain in English.
When you repeat patterns again and
again, they become automatic and
speaking feels easier.
But I also understand you want variety.
You don't want every video to feel
exactly the same.
You will practice questions people
really ask you, answers you can really
give, and short prompts to help you
create your own answers.
This will help you not only repeat
English but also think in English and
prepare for real situations,
small talk, interviews, meetings, and
deep conversations.
Here's how we will practice today. I
will ask a question. I will say it two
times. You shadow the question with me.
Then I will give a natural answer. I
will say it two times. You shadow the
answer with me. Don't worry about being
perfect. Focus on rhythm, intonation,
and expressing yourself.
So now, let's start this interactive
shadow and answer practice together with
English fluency teacher. Listen
carefully and then repeat after me by
copying my tone and rhythm.

In this video, you didn't only repeat
random sentences. You practiced real
questions and real answers. The kind of
English that appears in conversations,
interviews, and exams.
You trained your ear with natural
questions, your mouth with clear
answers, and your mind by creating your
own answers after shadowing.
Every time you do this kind of practice,
speaking feels a little more natural,
thinking in English becomes a little
easier, and your future conversations
become less scary and more exciting.
If you completed this practice, write in
the comments, "I'm training real English conversations."

I would love to read your comment and
cheer for your progress.
