Input is good, BUT it’s very important that the material is at your level!

The difficulty of the text doesn’t depend on the speed of the text, or not even the vocabulary in the text, it depends on the constructions that are used in the text. That's why in these podcasts there are only 3 Cases used ( Nominative, Prepositional, and Accusative), and a limited number of grammatical structures.

It’s very important that you have a transcription in front of you, and you can keep listening to the audio at full speed. Even if you are a beginner! So many times people learn with a book, read texts silently, or listen to slow podcasts, and oops! - when a native speaker says something simple, you don’t even recognise this word at all🙈. Has it ever happened to you? That’s why learning vocabulary through only reading doesn’t work. It's because you can't identify words at natural speed.

If you would like not only to listen but also implement your knowledge, use whatever you learned, sign up to my " LISTEN and SPEAK Challenge" based on the same type of texts, and start practising speaking! You receive speaking tasks and my feedback! JOIN HERE!  

See you there!
