hubbub Podcast
by British Hills
Hubbub – ‘A loud noise caused by many people all talking at the same time’ This is the dictionary definition of ‘hubbub’, and this nicely sums up this podcast! Coming to you from a unique place in Japan, the English teachers at British Hills are getting out of the classroom and chatting to you (in English of course) about anything and everything. This English village has lots of personality and culture to share, so, hopefully we can prove that both English and our teachers are fun.
