Today's episode is the first in this new "Read Along" series. The objective is to dive into an interesting article, learn a bunch of new words, practice reading comprehension and also raise your level of confidence when it comes to tackling articles that you might think are "too advanced". In this particular episode, we're going to be reading an article from the New York Times, covering the topic of mental health and "languishing" during the pandemic. Here's the article if you want to f...

This episode of English with Dane is all about expressions, specifically music-related ones. You wanted more expressions, you got em'. These are some of my favourite ones and some of the ones I use the most when just going about my day. Don't feel pressured to learn all of them. If you like one, and it sticks, cool. As always, it's more about being aware of them, hearing them and understanding them, and eventually, incorporating them into your day-to-day speech. Learning comes in phases so do...

I'm back in the house with some COMMON MISTAKES! Some of these you might be making, others perhaps not, but this episode is really about "mistake awareness" rather than "stop making these mistakes!" I think sometimes we're too hard on ourselves and we don't live up to our potential, in fear of making mistakes. So, if you take anything away from this episode, I hope it's that. Give it a listen and take your awareness up a notch (a notch is "an indentation or incision on an edge or surface", bu...

This episode is a bit of a different one. I had the idea for this episode while answering my friend Pablo's questions via What's App and thought it would be a fun thing to do. I get a good amount of questions from friends (mostly Pablo) and I love it. Sometimes you don't get a good idea of how to use a word, expression, idiom, or whatever by just going to google and getting the definition. Sometimes it's better to hear it from someone who uses that word or expression regularly and has grown u...

In this episode of English with Dane, I sit down with my friend Álvaro Escribano to talk about his relationship with English-learning as well as his approach and journey. We talk about how you can make your passion your greatest weapon when it comes to English learning. In his case, that's Rock n' Roll records, guitars, movies, and TV shows (but especially Records). Maybe you feel identified with not enjoying English class at school, and instead diving into the language through somethin...

Today in history is back! I thought it was about time to bring this segment back, and what better time to do it than on the 11th of March, a date that has a dark spot in Spanish history. As always, this will be a great opportunity to learn some new vocabulary, as well as take a moment to reflect on where we are right now in time and how the past has affected us.

This episode of English with Dane is all about nouns that are also verbs depending on the pronunciation. This might be a strange concept but it's one that we come across every day. Syllable stress is a very important aspect of English-learning and we have to get used to not only pronouncing words correctly but with the appropriate syllable stress. Proper emphasis will not only make you sound more natural when speaking English, but it will give you more confidence too. In this episode, I...
