Dear Learner

 

Hurray for May - one of our favourite months! One of our Podcasts of the Month is all about The merry month of May. Listen and find out lots of interesting things about the month, it's not just about the flowers! This is for level 1.

 

Also for this level we have Four little birds. This is one of our pie videos and tells the story of a strange place to build a nest. For level 2, we talk to Naomi in Call the midwife, about her training to become a very important person on the maternity ward. For level 3, Nora tells us about her unusual life as a professional dancer in The dancing queen.

 

We already celebrated May Day (did you?) but for the first podcast of the month we also celebrate Britain's best loved tree: The mighty oak. Listen and find out why it's so important to us. This is for level 1.

 

Our second podcast is all about the latest cybercrime: Ransomware. We talk about how computers have been attacked and give some good advice for those who want to stay safe in the future. This is for our business listeners but we do hope our regular listeners enjoy the podcast too!

 

We have updated our lists of podcasts making it easier to find what you're looking for. Go to the Find a podcast section of the Pie plus page and print the list for your level. And we also have a special days list which not surprisingly has all our podcasts linked to special days throughout the year.

 

As always do write to us if you have any suggestions for the site, or if there are any topics you would like to listen to, we love hearing from our listeners!

 

Here's to a successful 2017 learning English.

 

Best wishes

Jackie and Richard
