Create a shadowing practice plan. Language and level: [TARGET_LANGUAGE_LEVEL]. Audio material I have (podcast, video, course): [AUDIO_SOURCES]. Time per day: [MINUTES]. Explain shadowing in plain terms and give a four-week plan: week one, listen and read along; week two, shadow with the transcript; week three, shadow without transcript; week four, shadow and then answer questions about the content. Give daily session steps with times, how to choose a clip (length, difficulty, speed), what to track (clarity, speed, stress), and how to adjust when it is too hard. Include a checklist for evaluating recording quality and a short reflection after each week. Add a caution about avoiding strain on the voice and taking breaks. Add a troubleshooting section for common problems, such as speech that is too fast, losing the thread, or boredom with the material, with one fix each. Provide a method to choose new material every two weeks and a final assessment in week four where I compare my first and last recordings on three criteria.
