128 Rock N' Roll English 🤘 Martin Johnston from the UK
Description
Martin Johnston loves to teach English through personal stories (storytelling) and through non conventional methods. It's great to learn from him and his podcast. He really knows a thing or two about learning (teaching) a language, especially British English.
His "unfiltered" podcast (Rock N'Roll English, first episode aired in 2016) with real life stories is there to improve our English.
In this interview, we learn more about Martin's language story, how he ended up in Italy and went back to the UK and how his podcast came to be. It's inspiring and educational at the same time. A shout-out to Martin Johnston!
"You don't have to be great to start, but if you want to be great, you have to start."
