Moses McCormick was someone who I wish I had met and gotten to know. Unfortunately he has passed away. We all might have someone we admire or look up to. If you can, you should try to find a way to reach out and let them know. In this episode, I talk about one of my top inspirations for getting into language learning.

What I've been doing for the last 7 months (3500 views so far!)
Sound Practice Language Learning
10/23/21 • 25 min
I've been really busy lately with life. This podcast has received over 3500 views so far!
If you are an intermediate or upper-intermediate learner of English you will find my speaking very comprehensible and I use natural English and speak in a very casual way without a script so that you can practice listening to real English being used.
In this podcast I give everyone an update about what I've been doing. I talk about:
- moving house;
- a new addition to the family that we will have soon!
- a big accident I 3 months ago (go back and listen to the bicycle podcast episode! I have lots of accidents); and,
- the languages I'm studying now: French, Spanish, Mandarin, German, Russian, Norwegian, and Farsi.
Having trouble listening? Sorry. Maybe have another listen? I have stopped making transcripts of my recordings because no one was reading them on the website! You can find other cool things for English learning and language learning here though on my website.
