Monthly news from podcastsinenglish.com Dear Teacher Happy New Year! A big welcome back to all our listeners. So we start with some exciting news: we have a new level! Yes, we are starting a beginner level and our first podcast for 2022 is for that. It also has one of our pie videos and it's called the first week. As teachers it would be great to get some feedback from you. We want, where possible, for the podcasts to be (fairly) natural but easy enough for beginners to get most of the content. It's quite difficult. Do let us know what you think and for some suggestions for future topics. Thanks. Unable to travel? Have you seen our Travelogues page? It's full of videos we have made during our time living and working abroad, and a few fun holidays too. Some are linked to podcasts with worksheets but most are just there for you to enjoy: no need for you to book a flight, and you can learn English at the same time! If you are not already a member, one lucky winner in our monthly competition gets free pie membership! Roberto, from Brazil, was the lucky winner of last month's competition. He correctly said the wine was a) hot. For this month just answer this question: Who was Pookie? Was it a) a red fox, b) a white rabbit, or c) a brown bear? The answer is in this level 1 podcast: Children's stories. Write your answer on our Contact us page. Remember to tell us your name and where you are from. Good luck! Answers by the end of the month. So the very best for learning or teaching English in 2022. Do write in with your comments, we love hearing from our listeners. Best wishes Richard and Jackie The pie team |
