Episode 038 - Expressions British People ACTUALLY use


Listen Later

English learners tend to learn idioms and expressions from their teachers and textbooks. The only problem is that most of them are really old fashioned and native speakers never use them. Today I will show you some expressions British people actually use!

My name is Dan and I am a British English teacher from Sheffield in the UK. I moved to Japan in 2016 to start a new life and I realised that the language I learned from textbooks was nothing like the real world and I really struggled to survive in a new country. These days I am able to do most things in my daily life here in Japan and I want to make sure that you can do the same in the UK. I am here to help you understand British life, British culture, and of course, British English!
