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!

In questo episodio parlo di uno dei tanto stereotipi sugli italiani: L'essere "mammoni"!!!
Se è sicuramente vero che abbiamo un legame fortissimo con la nostra famiglia e in particolare con la mamma, è anche vero che non bisogna fare l'errore di valutare aspetti culturali come questo con una scala di valori che appartiene ad una cultura diversa. Buon ascolto e buono studio a tutti!!! CIAO MAMMA 🖐  :)

The Italian Miscellaneous Podcast🖐 

Gli italiani sono dei mammoni? Are Italians Mama's boy?

Un breve pensiero riguardo i vari accenti regionali della lingua italiana.

Italiano, quale imparare?

El lenguaje evoluciona y cambia. Muchas veces los responsables de estos cambios son los jóvenes, ellos crean y usan palabras y conceptos que para las personas de más edad son totalmente desconocidas, hasta que se popularizan, y se aceptan como las palabras o la jerga de moda.

En este episodio te voy a explicar algunos de los términos que los jóvenes de hoy en día usan para que cuando los escuches no te quedes con cara de no tener ni idea de lo que están diciendo.

Como siempre, espero que disfrutes el episodio. No te olvides después de escucharlo de dejar una pequeña valoración ni de decirme qué piensas:

-¿has escuchado estos conceptos antes? ¿Los usas?

-¿en tu país los jóvenes también tiene un “idioma” propio?
