I believe you like learning English, don’t you. In this case, I believe has the same meaning as I think. I’m pretty sure you like English. Believe me, if that’s true, I believe you’re gonna love this English lesson.
Today, let's look at the difference between believe, believe in, and trust. These little words come up all the time in conversations, and even though they seem pretty similar, they each have their own flavor, their own feeling.

I think you’re gonna like this lesson. I assume you’ve heard a lot of this vocabulary before, but I reckon maybe you haven't used all of it. In that case, I guess you may need to grab a notebook!

832 - Too Much and Much Too Jun 13, 2025

Show notes

I was much too tired to go to the gym today. To be honest, I guess I’m too bored with that gym. The equipment is too old and there are too many people working out there. Wait a minute...maybe I’m just much too grumpy.
Today, we’re gonna talk about a few tiny little words that pack a punch in English — too, much too, and too much. They may sound simple, but these words can really help you express how you feel about a situation — especially when things just aren’t right.

831 - Except, Besides, Without Jun 10, 2025

Show notes

Besides English, do you study any other languages? I mean, except for your native language. Think about those questions, because without any further delay, I think it’s time to dive right into today’s English lesson.
At first glance, the words besides, except, and without all kinda seem like they’re doing the same thing — talking about adding or leaving something out — but actually, each one has its own job. So let’s break it down.

830 - Let’s Think Jun 08, 2025

Show notes

Just think. A year ago you were at a totally different place along your English learning journey. And if you think that reaching your language goals is impossible, well, think again. When it comes to goals in life, you have to think big.
Today, I want to talk about a word that we use all the time… but we don’t always stop to think about how we use it. Yep — you guessed it. That word is, "think."

829 - How We Use Last Jun 03, 2025

Show notes

Do you remember the last song you listened to? When was that, last night? And how long did it last? I’ll bet this is the last thing you thought I’d ask you. Well, at last, we’re gonna get this English lesson off the ground.
For today’s podcast English lesson, we’re going to talk about a really small word that’s used in a lot of big ways—“last.” This word pops up all the time in English, and it’s not just for talking about the “final thing.” There’s actually a handful of common ways to use “last,” and today, we’re going to explore five of them.
