Do you find listening to fast spoken English difficult? If so, this episode is for you!
Some of my students came over to the UK recently for an intensive summer program, and there were four 'listening' situations which they found difficult. I explain why the conversations were hard, and share some tips and strategies to help you understand fast spoken English.
This episode is for you if you travel to English-speaking countries, or if you have conversations with native English speakers.
