Slow English Podcast: Episode 1 - 'Burnout' | Slow Listening | Listening and Shadowing

Описание: 🎧 SLOW ENGLISH PODCAST #1

Burnout, priorities, and learning to slow down

In this first episode of the Slow English Podcast, I share a very personal experience of burnout and reflect on what it taught me about work, priorities, and learning to slow down.

This is a slow-listening podcast, designed for learners of English.
I speak calmly and clearly with my own voice (no AI) to help you follow, reflect, and learn naturally.

⭐️ MY TEACHING BELIEFS
I believe learning English (or anything else for actually!) should not be about objectives, but about the learning process.

Why should you look at learning English as a process?

When you only focus on short-term objectives, motivation often drops once you’ve achieved them — it happens to everyone. But when you see learning as an ongoing journey, you can keep your motivation high for much longer.

No pressure. Just progress. And the best part? You win simply by learning! 🚀
