Shadowing practice

Listen & echo

Play a sentence, then say it right away — copy the teacher's rhythm and melody, like an echo. Record yourself and compare.

💡 How to shadow: listen once, then repeat immediately — same speed, same music. Don't read word by word; copy the whole sentence like a little song.
Ouça uma vez e repita logo em seguida, imitando o ritmo e a “melodia” da frase — como um eco.
