Use Podcasts to Learn English

Once you have achieved at least a beginner intermediate level of the English language listening to podcasts can get you to the next level. Spending time studying grammar and language structure can be helpful but has proven to be unnecessary to achieve fluency. Studies from the natural approach have proven to be more effective as a learning technique than the study of traditional grammar. When you listen to this podcast you will be able to relax and let your brain do all the work of subconsciously understanding the structure of the language. All you need to do is understand it. If you hear a word you do not know, I encourage you to look it up in an English dictionary. Happy listening and good luck on your English learning journey!
