#3 Learning a lesson


Listen Later

Welcome back Teachifiers to another Official Teachify English Podcast, this time Lewis thought he would share some of his thoughts and reflections during this period of quarantine.  Therefore, he decided to dedicate this episode of the pod to learning lessons from this time of difficulty.  A warning, however, there are quite a lot of tricky words used so we've decided to lend you a hand and write them down below.  However, we'd like to challenge you to listen to the podcast without checking out the key terms below, at least the first time.  Then you can have a look at the complicated vocabulary to solve any doubts you might still have.  Anyway, enjoy the pod and feel free to get in touch with us on social media if you have any questions.  :) 

Ah, and Lewis forgot about his joke of the day...
