It's our 20th episode!! We are celebrating with... another episode of the podcast!!

In Episode 20, we look at portmanteaus and their place in our world. You'll be amazed at how many examples there are...

Tune in and test your knowledge!

We are back with another GrammarTime episode, and this time we are focusing on a bit of proper word usage.

If you're wondering about when to use 'very' and when to use 'too,' then this episode is for you!

Enjoy!

We are back with another edition of Idiomatically Speaking.

Get your ears ready for some elbow idioms!

No need to 'elbow your way' through the crowd... there's plenty of room for everyone.

:)

After a bit of a break, we are back with another full episode of the podcast!

In Episode 19, we take on the history of Daylight Saving Time and look into the reason it has stayed with us for so long.

Whether you like DST or not, it's something we all have to deal with!

Enjoy!

In 'Pronunciation Challenge 5,' we continue our adventure through the fabulous universe of tongue twisters and challenging sounds.

As always, try the challenge out for yourself and see if you can do better than I did -- though I was pretty good this time... ;)

Enjoy!

In our fourth edition of the 'Pronunciation Challenge,' we bring you a particularly nice tongue twister to practice your 'w' and 'v' sounds.

If these are problematic for you, be sure to take the challenge on for yourself!

Enjoy!

This is part 3 of the Pronunciation Challenge.

We will be back with full episodes next week, but we're still having fun bringing you tongue twisters in the meantime.

For this edition, we are working on 'th' sounds vs. 't' and 'd' sounds. These are particularly difficult for ESL learners, so be sure to get plenty of practice!

And--as always--enjoy!

Here is the second part of the Pronunciation Challenge.

We present another tongue twister for you to master and try on your own.

See how you do with this new challenge!

:)

The show is taking a short break from our regular episodes, but we are offering some new materials to our listeners...

The 'Pronunciation Challenge' presents tongue twisters and tricky phrases to help with your pronunciation skills.

Try to master each phrase by repeating in five times quickly and clearly without making any mistakes. It's tricky (even for me) but it's also fun and great for your pronunciation practice.

Enjoy!

:)

We continue to take on grammar points in our 'GrammarTime' series.

In our fifth edition, we move on to the past perfect and give some tips on usage and precise meaning.

Tune in if you need to brush up on your skills!
