why using podcasts is a great way to learn languages and
how you should use them to get the most out of it.
With the help of podcasts you can easily level up your target language - in an interesting way.

We got Alastair Budge (creator of the English LEARNING For Curious Minds PODCAST) onto My Fluent Podcast to talk about using podcasts as a means of learning a language.

The whole philosophy behind Leonardo English is to help people improve their English in a more interesting way. In over 250 episodes, Alistair shares stories about people's lives and how things work. He kind of explains how things work.
