What is Shadowing?

Shadowing is the practice of listening to the sounds of a target language, and then repeating back what they say.

Because you have a native teacher saying the words, you can accurately notice differences between your pronunciations. You're able to create a feedback loop that aligns your pronunciation with theirs.

How to shadow well

While the audio is playing, say the words as the native speaker says it.
You can then innately compare your output with theirs, and pick up on any differences.

Before You Shadow

We don't recommend shadowing unless you're familiar with the sounds of the language. If you can't accurately hear the sounds of the speaker, you won't be able to accurately understand the differences between your speech and theirs.

Before You Shadow

El teléfono de Lucía suena, pero ella no lo encuentra. Busca en su bolso y no está. Busca en su mochila y tampoco está.

Tomás mira la mesa y dice: —Está ahí.

Lucía ve su teléfono en la mesa, delante de ella. —¡Claro! —dice ella, un poco roja. Tomás sonríe y no dice nada más.
