And if you did make some mistakes, you can click on the words and you can see them.

When I worked with people on their pronunciation using shadowing, I swear, people would always drop words out of sentences they just heard or the ones they were reading or replace them with some other words and they wouldn't even notice that.
You can also choose a little fragment of any video or podcast where a native speaker speaks.
You can practice that fragment and you can recreate it on video.
Again, it's important to record yourself because we make mistakes or drop words not even realizing it.
And of course, when you're just speaking freestyle, just expressing your own thoughts, you need to record yourself.
And just saying them out loud to yourself helps to get this burden off your shoulders.
Recording yourself is a very powerful tool that I suggest everyone use, even those who work with teachers.
Establish an everyday speaking practice routine and get into this.
A couple of months of doing this will be worth years of studying English by means of tests.
Plus, this is a very good way to keep track of your progress that in turn will help you stay motivated.
Thank you for watching our videos and supporting our channel and we want to wish you a happy new year and let's make 2023 a lot better than 2022.
We will have a dialogue where one line will be mine and the next one will be yours.
I'm going to say my line and then you will read your line from the screen out loud as if you were answering me and then we switch.
So find a comfortable and quiet place and get ready to repeat after me respond to questions, and even pause the video to practice your lines.
So first, we will listen to the full dialogue and then proceed to the practicing part.
Not much, just got back from an amazing vacation in Fiji.
The beaches were pristine, the water was crystal clear, I snorkeled with some exotic fish and even went diving with sharks.
I'll be spending most of my time on Oahu, but I hope to hop over to Maui for a few days too.
You have to check out Waikiki Beach, and if you have time, do the Diamond Head hike.
Don't miss a traditional luau, and make sure to try some local Hawaiian cuisine like poke and shave ice.
And the sunsets in Hawaii are breathtaking, so catch as many as you can.

Evening, our signature cocktail, the Sunset Margarita, is a hit.
About five years now, seen all sorts, but it's always about making sure folks have a good time.
Hey Sarah, long time no see. How you been? Hey Alex, I've been good, thanks. What's new with you? It was incredible.
I'm so jealous. So what's new with you? I can't wait. It's been on my bucket list for ages. Hawaii is amazing.

I'm sure you are familiar with a series of videos on my YouTube channel titled Speak English With Me.
I received an incredible amount of positive reviews on those videos from people saying that they helped them significantly with their speaking skills.
First, I'll perform the entire dialogue so that you have an example of how it should sound.
Then the dialogue will be broken down into two parts for practice.
In the first part, I'll start the dialogue by saying my lines and then you will see your lines on the screen.
You'll need to read your lines off the screen out loud as if we were conversing with each other.
And if you need a bit more time to read and say your lines, you can always pause the video.
I've been feeling a bit under the weather lately and I thought it would be best to get it checked out.
