Are you feeling stuck with your English?
We'll show you how to become fearless and fluent by focusing on connection, not perfection.
With your American hosts, Lindsay McMahon, the English adventurer,
and Michelle Kaplan, the New York radio girl.
Coming to you from Colorado and New York City,
One amazing way to connect with someone is by asking them about their family traits,
whether it's physical, talent-based, or other life choices.
Today, get the idioms you need to do this successfully and connect in English.
Do you feel like you know English, but you're always using the same basic words?
You can't find the precise or professional phrase when it matters.
Maybe you only hear sounds when natives speak without subtitles, you're lost.
Fast speech, similar sounds, accents, it all blends together.
And when you do speak, you hesitate, you overthink every sentence,
You worry people don't understand you or that you don't sound natural.
It's not a confidence problem.
It's a clarity problem.
