Description
Stop memorizing, start listening! Welcome to Learn By Listening, the English podcast designed specifically for young learners who want to understand English naturally. We believe that children learn best through stories, not word lists.
In each episode, we filled stories with mystery, humor, and fun characters. Whether it’s meeting a "tall ghost" who is actually just Grandpa, or traveling to a sunny day in Nara with a magic kimono, our stories use simple language that students can actually follow.
What makes us different?
Context over Lists: We use vocabulary from the standard curriculum (like family, feelings, and weather) but put them into exciting plots.
Perfect for ESL: Spoken clearly and at a pace that helps non-native speakers gain confidence.
Short & Sweet: Every episode is under 5 minutes—perfect for a morning listen or a bedtime story.
Join us and discover that you don't need to memorize words to speak English—you just need to listen!
-----------------------------------
別再死背單字了,聽故事才是王道!
歡迎來到《學英文不用背單字》,這是一個專為國小及國中 ESL 學習者設計的英文聽力廣播。我們深信:孩子學英文不該靠枯燥的單字表,而是要透過有趣的故事情境。
在每一集短短 5 分鐘的節目中,我們會帶領孩子進入不同的冒險世界。從「長得像鬼的神祕高個子」(其實是爸爸!),到靠著「魔幻和服」變換天氣,我們將課本裡的單字(如家庭成員、心情感受、天氣等)轉化成好玩的情節。
我們的特色:
情境學習: 拒絕死背!在故事中自然理解單字用法。
難易適中: 專為英語初學者設計,語速清晰流暢,建立孩子的聽力自信。
輕鬆無負擔: 每集不到 5 分鐘,隨時隨地都能練習。
跟著我們一起聽故事,你會發現:原來學英文可以這麼簡單、這麼好玩!
