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.

Hello, and welcome to episode 01 of the Slow English Learning podcast. The purpose of this podcast is to help non-native English speakers improve listening and conversational English by speaking in a slower pace.

Without further ado, let’s get started with the show.

Today is Friday the 19th of April 2019. The weather in Melbourne, Australia is a pleasant, lovely average of 20 degrees Celsius with blue skies and sunshine all throughout the day.

How was your day? What did you get up to today? Did you have to go to work, or did you have to go to school; or did you simply relax at home? Let me know by leaving a comment down below.

What’s happening in the news today:

Samsung’s new release of its folding smartphone appear to be breaking after being used for only a couple of days. Users reported the screen flickering and turning black before fizzling out completely. Samsung promises the screen can withstand being opened and closed 100 times a day for 5 years.

North Korea has test-fired a new powerful warhead weapon, marking the first launch since a summit with the US ended without an agreement in Vietnam in February this year. It is unclear if it is a missile.

Notre Dame will be shut for six years as it recovers from the devastating fire last Monday. The estimate came as France launched an international competition to design a new spire after the old one collapsed in the blaze.

And finally streaming giant Netflix is raising the costs of its subscription service to fund its own content. Prices will be raised in the US, Mexico, Brazil, and some parts of Europe, and is expected to impact subscriber growth.

And that’s all we have time for on today’s show. I hope you enjoyed your time with me, and I look forward to having you on again for the next episode.
