Episode Notes

A new weekly dictation to help learners of the English language to improve their listening comprehension.

How to use:
  1. Don't look at the transcript (text) below.
  2. Listen to the podcast (the dictation is repeated twice) and try to write everything you hear down.
  3. Check your text with the text of the dictation. If any word is different, it is probably a listening comprehension mistake. Try to listen again to the word and repeat the pronunciation a few times. If you don't understand the word when you read it; it is probably new vocabulary.
  4. Listen to the dictation again. You should understand some of the words that you didn't understand before.
    5. Transcript:

    James has been in the army for six years. He’s away for long periods at a time. This means that holding down a long relationship can be hard. So, he started to use escorts to satisfy his sexual needs. The website he uses only lets him see their bodies, it doesn’t show their faces. He decided to look for an older woman. One day, he booked an older escort. When she arrived at his door there was a big surprise. It was his friend’s mother. His friend’s mother continued like a professional during the encounter. After they finished, they decided it should be a secret. What is worrying is that James’s friend uses the same website!
