Description

Want to sound more confident and convincing in English?

In this episode of English and Beyond: Intermediate English Podcast, Oliver breaks down the art of persuasion in simple, practical steps. You’ll learn why English is full of short, punchy words that make arguments powerful, how famous speakers like Barack Obama and Winston Churchill use repetition and rhythm, and how you can adapt the same tricks - even as an intermediate learner.

By the end of this episode, you’ll know how to:

  • Avoid weak, rambling sentences;
  • Use repetition, contrast, and “rule of three” to make points stick; and
  • Instantly sound more persuasive in meetings, social settings, or debates.
