About EchoPhrase
Our Mission
EchoPhrase exists to make pronunciation practice accessible to every language learner. We believe that speaking confidently is the key to true fluency, and shadowing is the fastest path to get there.
The Science of Shadowing
Shadowing was developed by Professor Alexander Arguelles and has been refined by polyglots like Luca Lampariello and Steve Kaufmann. Research shows that:
- • Immediate repetition strengthens neural pathways for speech
- • Mimicking prosody (rhythm, stress) improves comprehension
- • Regular practice leads to automatic, natural-sounding speech
- • Combining listening and speaking accelerates learning

Built by Language Learners
EchoPhrase was built by a team of language enthusiasts who struggled with pronunciation themselves. We know how frustrating it is to read and understand a language but freeze when speaking. This tool is our solution—and now it's yours.
