  Hey everybody, welcome to another episode of the A to Z English podcast episode.

• 00:06

  Jack Chats.

• 00:07

  Jack Chats are bonus episodes of the podcast.

• 00:12

  So these are opportunities for me to connect with you, the listener, and to share your thoughts and ideas with our other listeners out there.

• 00:25

  It's great to hear from you and the in the emails and in the WhatsApp group, and I want to encourage you to continue to be active in those groups and welcome new members into the group as well.

• 00:41

  Because there are a lot of english language learners out there and we want to build the A to Z English community.

• 00:51

  We could call it, I would call it a global community of listeners and english language learners, people who are maybe don't have access or time for a formal classroom education.

• 01:12

  Meaning you don't have time to go and sit down in a class every day for one or 2 hours, but you do have time to listen to a podcast.

• 01:22

  You know, a class requires a lot of effort.

• 01:26

  You have to wait.

• 01:27

  You have to go there in the evenings after work.

• 01:30

  I mean, some of you want to sit down and have a little bit of dinner and relax before the next day starts, but if you're doing night classes, you can't do that.

• 01:41

  But the wonderful thing about a podcast is you can listen to it while you cook your dinner, while you take the subway to work, in the morning, while you walk to work, drive to work, drive home from work, drive to school, drive home from school, walk home from school.

• 01:57

  Whatever you're doing, a podcast is just basically sticking two airpods in your ears and hitting play.

• 02:08

  That's the only requirement.

• 02:10

  And hopefully our episodes are enjoyable for you and that we try to use what we call sheltered language, where we're speaking a little bit more slowly and speaking with a vocabulary that is a little bit more appropriate for language learners but still challenging you and pushing you to grow as an english language learner.

• 02:43

  That's our goal.

• 02:45

  And so I know that, you know, a lot of people are at different levels.

• 02:50

  Some people are beginners, some people are intermediate, some people are advanced.

• 02:55

  I think there's enough in our portfolio now these days, our episode list, there's enough for everybody to enjoy something.
