Vietnamese Shadowing
Shadowing Monologue Practice
Vietnamese Shadowing is a free Vietnamese listening and repeat-after-me resource built around short monologues. It is best if you already know basic Vietnamese and want a steady way to practice speaking fluency from real sentences, not isolated words.
Each episode gives you a topic-based monologue (often around 8 to 10 minutes) with a full Vietnamese transcript on the Episodes page. You can listen on podcast apps like Apple Podcasts or follow along on their site. Some episodes also point you to a small vocabulary section near the end.
What it does well is make shadowing easy to stick to: press play, read along, and repeat until your mouth gets used to the rhythm. The main limitation is that it is a finite archive (20 episodes, last dated September 5, 2021), and there is no structured beginner curriculum or feedback on your pronunciation.
