🚀If one of your goals is to improve your English, this episode gives you a clear study method you can actually follow. I share a four-step system that combines reading and listening so you can learn faster and remember more of what you study.
You will learn what “comprehensible input” means, how to choose a book that is interesting and a little above your level, and how to use English and your native language together to understand difficult texts. I explain several variations of the method, including ideas for beginners, intermediate learners, and students who only have a short time each day.
By the end of the episode, you will have a simple plan you can use every day to build vocabulary, improve listening comprehension, and feel more confident using English in real life.
