I’m a Chinese student learning  two foreign languages, English and French. In the past, I used my mother language to express my thinking on life experience because it’s simple and natural. Other tow languages serve most of time as my technical languages since the core of communication is tech which for me is more natural.

However, I have some troubles. To live in a foreign country especially while having a career which needs lots of contacts with local customers, I can’t always talk about hardcore techs. Customers don’t care about the way how I realize my work. Their needs and wants are that I at first understand and at last delivery exactly what they are expecting.

For those who are learning English as a second laugange, I am willing to share with you a wonderful podcast web site eslpod.com.

Who is ESLPod.com?
ESLPod.com is run by a team of experienced English as a Second Language professors with over 30 years of high school, adult, and university ESL teaching experience. Dr. Lucy Tse writes scripts and story ideas for the podcasts, and records many of the dialogs and stories. The host for the podcast is Dr. Jeff McQuillan, who helps read the scripts and provides explanations for them.

What attracts me most is not only we can learn lots of vocabularies and expressions there but also the pure Aemrican culture. In every episode, a dialogue is repeated twice of which the first time is made in a slower speed and the second one normal. The explanation is very clear and impressive. 

During the whole episode, you will  be reminded of the learning guideline which doesn’t come  free as the podcast does.  I think that’s a main reason why the podcast could get updated every two or three days with a very good quality.

Many thanks for Dr.Lucy Tse and Dr. Jeff McQuillan. And hopefully, you will like it.
