The English Journey Podcast

Thank you for tuning in to the English Journey Podcast this week! Stephen Greene joins us to talk about the concept of "linguistic landscapes". This means to notice English all around you in your every day life, from street signs to restaurant menus. This strategy can help make learning the English language not only more interesting but also, can help speed up your learning process.
