Mother Earth, we need her and she definitely needs us! Join us this week as we talk about our planet, ways to help the environment and things Jennifer and Dan do to contribute to a greener world. Stick around because we're talking about punctuation (commas and semi-colons) at the end of the episode in our language focus.

Enjoy!

Do you have any siblings? An older brother? Younger sister? Maybe you’re an only child. Whatever your situation, this week you can find out all about your hosts Jen and Dan’s family and improve your English skills at the same time. After the chit chat, the language focus covers three-part phrasal verbs.

Enjoy!

Do you enjoy a good walk? A potter around a town or a hike in the countryside? Dan definitely does! Join your 2 native speaker English teaching hosts as they chat all about perambulation - walking! The language focus is after the chat and this week it’s the simple past versus the past continuous.

Have fun!

Episode 200! We can’t quite believe we’ve come this far and want to thank each and every person who has ever listened to and supported us. But we’re not stopping here and so join us for a chat packed with fun, laughter and the English you need to reach your language goals. We’ve also got super exciting news about how you can study for free along with us in the coming days.

Let’s celebrate!

Hey there Ponder! Do you feel like you’re making good progress? Life moving along nicely? Or are you stuck in a bit of a rut, not getting much traction? This week we’re chatting about progress, what it is and how we can make it more effectively in life and in particular, of course, in English. The language focus after the chat looks at past tense verbs.

We love challenges around here at EATP - English Across the Pond, but what does that mean exactly? We talk about 2 meanings of this word in today’s episode, tell you why we love them (challenges) and give some exciting news about what’s coming up in April with our podcast. It’s exciting, it’s educational, and as always - it’s fun! Stick around for the language focus where we talk about using “DO” as an emphasis verb.

Have you got a wild and vivid imagination? Or do you find it difficult to come up with new and original ideas? Whatever side of the fence you’re on, join us for an episode full of all things imagined!

And just imagine how bad your English will be if you don’t listen :)

After our chat the language focus is about verbs followed by an infinitive or a gerund.

Enjoy!

We have a proposal for you this week, and no we’re not talking about getting married! :) We want you to listen to the episode this week and set a goal for yourself and your English. What can you do, this week, to accomplish your goals? That’s a good proposal right? Learn the few meanings of this word in this episode and stick around for the language focus which will help you with count and noncount nouns.

Blame - to feel or say that someone is responsible for something that is wrong. Do you ever blame someone for things they haven’t done? Your partner maybe? Or have you ever been blamed for something you didn’t do? Been wrongly accused? Join us, Dan and Jennifer for another week of English language fun and laughter. The language focus is all about expressions with for. Enjoy!

This week it is all about YOU, ladies! Happy week of International Women’s day, today we want to celebrate women around the world for their incredible strength and everything they (you) have accomplished. This episode really could have gone on forever, but enjoy this week’s conversation about what your hosts think about women, society and this day. Women is an irregular noun, and inspired our language focus this week.
