Reasons for Starting a Podcast
The podcast host explains two main reasons for starting a podcast. Firstly, the host recognizes that not everyone has time to watch YouTube videos, including themselves. Listening to podcasts allows for multitasking during activities like driving or doing household chores. Secondly, the host believes that podcasts create a unique connection between the podcaster and the listener, fostering a deeper and more personal conversation compared to YouTube videos. This motivated the host to start a podcast alongside their YouTube channel.
Target Audience and Content
The podcast is primarily aimed at English learners who wish to improve their fluency and confidence in the language. The host, a non-native English speaker and a coach for confident English speaking, plans to share techniques and insights from their own journey. Additionally, the podcast is also valuable for English speakers, both native and non-native, who have a passion for the language. The host intends to delve into the phonetics, phonology, and quirks of spoken English in an engaging and educational way. English teachers looking to enhance their pronunciation-teaching skills can also benefit from the strategies and tips shared on the podcast. The host acknowledges that the content may evolve over time based on audience feedback and personal impulses.

In this first episode, I’ll share with you the reasons why I chose to start my own podcast, who it is for, and what you’re gonna find here.
