Shadowing
I have done shadowing for 30 days straight to improve my English listening and speaking skill. I can understand the overall of contents, but can’t hear some articles and postpositional particles perfectly. Also I’ve been struggling with the native speaker’s speed of speaking. Although I think I’m far away from my goal of English level, I feel I’m getting good at them.
When I recorded my speaking voice, I found I often stumbled especially when I tried to say lots of numbers(such as 54355). I hear the whole script once first, and then say as fast as the speaker speaks. When I look at the script, I often miss “a” or “an”, also “s” of plural words. Maybe these are just tiny mistakes, but these will cause different meanings.

Shadowing
I have done shadowing for 30 days straight to improve my English listening and speaking skill. I can understand the overall contents, but am unable to pick up some articles and postpositional particles completely. I have also been struggling to keep up with the speed of native speakers. Although I think I am still far away from my goal of English level, I feel I am improving.
When I tried recording my voice, I found that I often stumbled, especially when I tried saying lots of numbers (such as 54355). I would first hear the entire script once and then try to mimic the speed of the speaker. When I looked at the script, I often miss an “a” or “an”, and also the “s” of plural words. Although these are just tiny mistakes, these will cause the meanings to differ.
