Learning Guide

Listen first. Play the audio and see how much you can understand - the main ideas, and familiar words and phrases.
Read with curiosity. Read through the text slowly. When a word is unfamiliar, guess the meaning first, before clicking the word to check the English.
Check your understanding. Take the comprehension quiz and test your understanding.
Lock in the vocabulary. Use the flashcards to recall useful, key words - say the answer out loud before you flip.
Mirror (optional). Play the audio again and read the text aloud, matching the speaker’s articulation as closely as possible.
