The glottal stop is a feature that is common in British English pronunciation where a sound (usually a T) changes quite drastically. In this podcast, I go over why we use it, how we use it, and if you need to use it too! Don't miss this episode!

I look at a few articles on how to be organised. I love the topic of organisation and I really think that, when done correctly, it can help improve your life and, of course, make your English learning journey much easier too. Hope you enjoy it!

The intermediate plateau is a term used to describe a period somewhere between Beginner and Advanced levels in language learning where it feels like progress has stopped. No matter how much you study, it feels like you never improve.

In this episode, I talk about why this might happen, some tips on how to move up to the advanced levels, and about my personal experience with this too.

How can we find the time to study, rest and have fun while working all day?

I react to some online articles and Reddit posts that talk about how to find or make more time in your busy days.

I go over some tips (about 10!) on improving your spelling in English. It's not easy, but there are some things you can try to see improvements over time.

This is a heavily requested episode on the IELTS exam. Let's talk about how you can get a high score and reach your goals in the exam.

In this episode, I talk more generally about what you can do to prepare for the exam. In the future, I plan to make more specific episodes on each section of the exam.

In today's reaction episode, I look at a Reddit post from someone moving to the UK and asking some Brits what etiquette (politeness) rules must be followed to integrate into society.

We had some jokes and some good tips! Can you think of any more?

This is a topic I have been thinking about some quite some time. The difference between approaching something Deep and Narrow versus Wide and Shallow is having a single-minded focus on one thing.

This focus can lead to success in life.

“You can get almost anything you want out of life, as long as it's one thing and you want it far more than anything else.”
