Hi, everyone! I'm Georgiana, founder of SpeakEnglishPodcast.com.
My mission is to help YOU to speak English fluently and confidently.

In today's episode:

  • I'm gonna talk about how to understand people who speak English with a strong accent.
  • Next, through a point of view lesson, you'll practice vocabulary, and above all, you'll improve your grammar without memorizing boring rules.

I listen to people who speak English with a strong accent every day. 

Their mother tongue sometimes has a strong influence on the way they speak English.  

Have you ever traveled to another country and tried to speak their mother tongue?

That's why, whenever you talk to people with a strong accent you should try to be as patient and encouraging as possible.
