Hi everyone!

I’m Georgiana; founder of SpeakEnglishPodcast.com. My mission is to help YOU speak English fluently.

I’m extremely excited because you’re listening to my first episode of the Speak English Now podcast.

To be honest, I’m aware that there are many podcasts about learning English, so, maybe you’re asking yourself right now, what’s different about this podcast?

Well, that’s a fair question.

There are many areas in English you can improve, but my main focus, my mission, is to help you SPEAK English fluently.

I’d like to repeat that: My mission is to help you SPEAK English fluently.

If you need to improve other areas, like writing or formal grammar, I suggest you find another content, but…If you truly want to get  better at speaking, this is your podcast.

SPN 001: First Episode

I’m Georgiana; founder of SpeakEnglishPodcast.com. My mission is to help YOU speak English fluently.

In this episode:

I’ll talk about why is the American accent so different from the British accent.
After that, I’ll use the Question and Answer technique for helping you develop your speaking skills.
Let’s get started!

In the eighteenth century, American and British pronunciations were pretty similar. Remember that the British Empire colonized America. Many immigrants traveled to America to start a new life.

So, a fair question is:

Why is American and British pronunciation so different nowadays?

Well, there are many theories, but here’s a reasonable one:

It’s the standard British accent that has radically changed in the past two centuries.

Why do Americans and British have different accents

Hi everyone!

I’m Georgiana; founder of SpeakEnglishPodcast.com. My mission is to help YOU speak English fluently.

In this episode:

I will be talking about how many times we have to repeat an audio.
After that, we’ll practice conversation skills with a new mini-story.
Let’s get started!

As you may know, I always recommend you listening for improving your English. There are many studies, which suggest that there is a correlation between our level of the language and the hours we have been listening. In other words, the more you listen, the better. The more hours you spend listening, the more quickly you improve.

Here’s an interesting question you might ask: “How many times do I have to listen to every piece of content?” Do I have to listen just one time? Or more than one time?

What most students do is listen to certain content once or twice and then change to another content. The typical student thinks that the more variety, the better.

Well, variety is good, but what you want is to consolidate what you listen, and the most effective way to achieve it, is through repetition.

Toastmasters an excellent to practice your speaking

Hi everyone!

I’m Georgiana; founder of SpeakEnglishPodcast.com. My mission is to help YOU speak English fluently.

In this episode:

I’m going to talk about the relationship among reading, writing, speaking and listening.
After that, I’m going to tell you a Point of View Story.
Let’s get started!

As a language student, the main activities to learn a new language are: reading, writing, listening and speaking. This is what we naturally do in our mother tongue.

One key aspect to keep in mind is that we can categorize these activities as input and output. As you may guess, listening and reading are input activities, and writing and speaking are output activities.

In other words, when you’re listening or reading, you are being exposed to the language, and when you’re writing and speaking, you are “producing” the language.

The traditional approach tells you that the more you write and speak, the better. That’s why language schools insist on writing a lot and “practicing” your speaking with other students, sometimes in groups.

This seems reasonable, but it’s not effective. There’s a lot of research that points out the contrary: Basically, in order to develop your English, you need to do input activities most of the time.
