Welcome to the listening Time podcast.
I'm Connor from Polyglossa.com and you're listening to episode 32 of the Listening Time podcast.
I hope you're all doing well.
I hope your listening is improving.
I'm sure that you're finding these episodes useful, especially if you're using the transcript and you're trying to actively learn the new words that I'm teaching you.
I promise you that this effort will definitely pay off.
In English, when we say that something pays off, this just means that it gets results.
It gives you benefits in the future.
So if you listen to these episodes and use the transcripts and try to learn new words, the words that I'm teaching you in these episodes, I'm sure that this will pay off and you'll see your english level grow.
I do a similar type of practice when I learn other languages, and I know that it definitely pays off for me.
It might seem a little bit slow or sometimes even a little bit boring if you repeat the same episode or have to listen to the same thing multiple times.
But what I've found is that I actually capture the new vocabulary and it actually stays in my mind.
And I don't need to write the new words down on a list and have to review them every day.
Because if I hear new vocabulary in context, and I hear it multiple times in this context, the vocabulary word stays in my mind.
It's really cool.
I hope that you're experiencing the same thing as well if you're using the technique that I've explained already, the technique of repeating the same podcast episode multiple times.
For example, the first time without the transcript, then the second time with the transcript, then the third time without the transcript.
Again, this is just one way, but you could also do it other ways as well.
You could also listen to the episode the first time with the transcript if that helps you more.
I've done that before as well with other languages, so you just need to find your method, what works for you.
