CELPIP Speaking shadowing FAQ

What is shadowing for CELPIP Speaking?
Shadowing means you listen and speak at the same time (in sync). It trains rhythm, sentence stress, intonation, and ready-to-use phrases that make your CELPIP Speaking sound more natural.
How long should I practice with these CELPIP speaking videos?
Short, consistent sessions work best. Try 10–15 minutes per day: shadow one video twice, then speak on your own for 30–60 seconds and focus on clarity and timing.
What should I do after shadowing?
Immediately describe the topic in your own words. Practice common CELPIP Speaking task types: giving advice, sharing a personal experience, describing a scene, making predictions, comparing options, handling a difficult situation, and expressing opinions.
Can I get feedback or analysis on my speaking?

Yes. Use our free speaking practice prompt to record your answer and get feedback. It helps you notice repeated mistakes and improve faster.
