Stephanie :)

hiiii I love your discussions about ESL. I'm a student of B.A. in TEFL. yesterday, I was listening to one of your episodes that you were talking to someone who is studying in Canada and is from Korea. and I just asked myself, " Can I one day become so much professional in my major that I be able to have discussions about it with someone from a foreign country?" it happens that I try to find some native speakers to talk to about science, studying, and education. however, not all people are interested in talking about academic things. my professors seldom happen to be interested in talking about these things to me because they think I'm too young to become a person who I want to be. but your podcasts give me hope. that I can learn things by myself. thanks so much for making these podcasts. 💫💜
