Interview: Science behind learning English as a second language

from Wonder In English Hosted by Courtney

In this episode, I speak with Alba about what it's like to be a foreigner living in the USA and learning English as a second language. We talk about teaching your kids your native language, language loss over time, and counterintuitive facts about language learning that I bet you didn't know. You will learn advanced vocabulary like "trajectory", "instill something in someone" and "articulate". If you'd like to see the full, written version of this lesson with more idioms and vocabulary, check it out here: https://www.wonderinenglish.com/2019/05/16/24-the-science-b…learning-english/
