Let’s begin!

00:09
Number one: Shadowing
4
9760
1860
00:11
Shadowing is a proven learning technique where
5
11660
2800
00:14
all you do is.. repeat what you hear, in order to practice speaking.
6
14520
4260
00:18
So, access any Audio or Video lesson on the site, and press the play button to start.
7
18780
6190
00:24
Then, as you listen or watch, just repeat the conversations.
8
24970
4580
00:29
Or even easier, read along, out loud, with the dialog section.
9
29550
4020
00:33
The script is right there in front of you.
10
33570
2430
00:36
With our lessons, you can master entire conversations just like that.
11

00:40
Number two: Read out loud.
12
40320
1880
00:42
I just mentioned it but reading out loud is another powerful tactic... and deserves its
13
42200
4920
00:47
own mention.
14
47120
1320
00:48
With every lesson, you get written, word-for-word transcripts and translations.
15
48440
4680
00:53
So, as you play the lesson, read the dialog out loud as you hear it.
16
53120
5390
00:58
Why?
17
58510
1000
00:59
By reading out loud, you’re also practicing your speaking skills.
18
59510
3490
01:03
You can do this with the lesson notes...
19
63000
2080
01:05
...the lesson transcript...
20
65080
2779
01:07
...or the dialog tool.
21
67859
2411
01:10
With the dialog tool, you can listen to each line again and again
22
70270
3400
01:13
...and repeat out loud until you master them all completely.
23
73670
4339
01:18
Number three: Speed up your reading to speed up your speaking
24
78009
3220
01:21
Fact: Being able to speak without thinking is a sign of language mastery.
25
81229
4340
01:25
If you’re talking to a native and can respond quickly, they’ll assume that you’re fairly
26
85569
4260
01:29
fluent.
27
89829
1000
01:30
How can you do this?
28
90829
1351
01:32
When you read... out loud, try increasing your speed, every time.
29
92180
4579
01:36
So, start by reading with the Dialog tool.
30
96759
3551
01:40
If you’re like most learners, you’ll read the first line slowly.
31
100310
3359
01:43
That’s because you’re still getting used to the words – which is okay.
32
103669
3851
01:47
Re-read it.
33
107520
1599
01:49
On your second try, you know most of the words and you’ll read a little faster...
34
109119
4500
01:53
Re-read it again.
35
113619
1841
01:55
On your third try, you’ll be even faster - at a native speaker’s speed.
36
115460
4100
01:59
And being able to read these phrases, out loud and fast...
37
119560
3619
02:03
...will help you speak fast.
38
123179
1521
02:04
Number four: Record & compare yourself with native speakers
39
124700
4240
02:08
In order to sound like a native speaker... you must imitate native speakers.
40
128940
4280
02:13
So, here's how.
41
133220
1650
02:14
Access the voice recorder ...which is in the Dialog study tool in every
42
134870
4170
02:19
lesson....
43
139040
1000
02:20
Click on the microphone icon, listen to the native speaker’s audio...
44
140040
5350
02:25
...and then record yourself.
45
145390
3140
02:28
You can then compare the two recordings side by side...
46
148530
3310
02:31
...and practice and try again and again until you perfect your pronunciation.
47
151840
