Demonstration - Shadowing a foreign language (Chinese):

Yvette

“Shadowing is a language learning technique developed by the American Professor Alexander Arguelles, first in Germany and later Korea. The basis of the method is audio in the language that you are learning. While listening, you attempt to repeat -- to "shadow" -- what you hear as quickly as you hear it.

 

There are two levels of shadowing: beginning and advanced. The beginning level is best done with a course such as Assimil, Linguaphone or the Cortina Method. A. Arguelles considers Assimil the best series for beginner shadowing. Advanced learners can use audio books.” —Learn Any Language [https://learnanylanguage.fandom.com/wiki/Shadowing]

 

 

Alexander Arguelles presents a discussion and commentary of his technique of "shadowing" foreign languages.  For more information, please refer to http://www.foreignlanguageexpertise.com
