Shadow English Podcast (シャドーイング英語ポッドキャスト)

In this short episode, I’m sharing 3 of my favorite quotes about focus and success—including wisdom from Steve Jobs and a timeless Persian saying. 💡

Shadowing at 5:40.

Whether you’re chasing goals, building habits, or just need a motivational boost, these quotes will remind you why focus beats talent, why saying “no” is key, and why shortcuts often lead to fragile success.

👉 Don’t forget to shadow this episode to improve your English speaking skills while getting inspired!

If you enjoyed this style, let me know—I’ve got a whole collection of quotes I’d love to share in future episodes!

🎙️ Stay tuned for Part 2 of my interview with Ryan Spring—coming soon!

Lundstroem - “Great Podcast Intro” (Short & Long Versions)

Ryan Spring, Associate Professor at Tohoku University, talks about the importance of phrasal verbs (part 1).Not going to lie...this is an advanced lesson as the guest speaker speaks fast and uses higher level vocabulary at times. Still, this is a great episode to listen and shadow to try and get your speed and vocab up to native-like proficiency. It is challenging, but worth it if you put in the effort. And the conversation is quite interesting. My interview with Ryan was long so I will divide it into 3 episodes.A friend and I developed an app! 📱

There is this theory in language learning that context can help you understand the meaning of words you don't know. While this is true to a degree, in this episode, I talk about how context isn't always enough for comprehension.
