🎧✨ Boosting My Advanced English Through Podcasts I've started listening to a podcast in advanced English today. This is an interesting way to learn, since I've never really tried it this way. First, they cover different topics that I can explore and get more familiar with advanced English vocabulary while doing my daily tasks. Moreover, the flow is pleasant, and even though they speak at the C1 level, it's easy to comprehend; however, there are some familiar words that I don't often use. Yet occasionally they introduce some unfamiliar words, and it's really rare. I realized that my academic vocabulary is a bit rusty. In theory, my academic vocabulary is well developed, but in practice, I rarely use it. As a result, I struggle to use it, since my brain is not trained for it. It impacts my daily writings negatively, leading to lower accuracy and clarity. It shows I can recognize my mistakes; however, I haven’t yet figured out how to fix them.
