Importance of culture with Leon (@englishteacherleon)

Culture is something we don't usually associate immediately with language learning. - Nevertheless Leon from @englishteacherleon talks to us about its importance. - We start by looking at cultural nuances within different states in the USA for example calling someone 'friend' means one thing on the East Coast of the USA compared to the West Coast. - Going deeper into this topic we pick up cultural nuances when it comes to him living in Brazil. How the meaning of one letter can have a completely different meaning in Brazil compared to the USA. - We also look taboos when it comes to asking things on first dates or meetings with people, and how these questions can have a big impact on a friendship or relationship someone might have. - Next time you have a conversation, remember that culture has a BIG impact on language!
