        如果问学中文普通话的朋友：哪一部分最难？相信很多人都会说：“声调，四个声调。” 我经常对学生说：“说中文普通话就像唱歌一样，其实不难。” 或许有人会说：你这是：“站着说话不腰疼”，我要说的是：如果您把最困难的“四声”问题解决好了，说好普通话其实还是一件挺愉快的事情。

Language lovers, tune in!

I hear this question, “How can I sound more like a native English speaker?” all the time, and I always give the same response. Use the shadowing technique!

Shadowing involves repeating someone's speech immediately after they say it. It's like you're following them as your shadow follows you. The beauty of this technique is that anyone can do it alone. Since most people learning a second language don't have the opportunity to speak with native speakers often, speaking it on your own is the next best thing. This method isn't only for English learning; it will work for all languages!

Tune in to the latest Express to Impress podcast episode to learn how to implement the shadowing technique. Learn about its origins and get tips to implement it effectively.  You’ll be inspired by the stories I share of people who have attained near-native English fluency and pronunciation by using this technique. By the end, you’ll be convinced the shadowing technique is an incredibly powerful English learning tool!
