Fluency podcast

This is podcast about fluency at like.english.club - the club where people like English! So, welcome to the second episode. It’s been a while since I made the first one. If you didn’t catch it, probably you should check it on my Instagram account. You are welcome :)Well, since I still have so much to talk about I’m ready to continue my journey here. And today I would like to talk more about accent or even.. you know. So-called “the right accent”, when some teachers or schools advertise their services with the phrases like: you are going to speak like a native with us.It seems like this is just the right phrase, juicy and sweet for students : to speak like a native. What can be wrong with it?

I came up with the idea of this podcast, the theme for this episode some time ago, when I realize that people don’t know what fluency actually means. I didn’t know that, too. Well, of course, we know the word fluency or fluent. But what exactly does it mean.. What are the criteria for fluency. How to get there if we don’t know where are we going to..?I don’t know many things, that’s why I started my little research on this topic to found out what we understand by that. What we mean when we tell that someone is fluent or someone is not fluent.And when I did my research I realized.. OMG this term is so complicated and multi-layered. It has so much in it. I can’t handle it in just one short episode. It is just not enough. That drives me to creating several episodes about fluency in English.This is the first episode and the topic for today sounds like “What is fluency and what is not fluency?”.
