Hi Saman

Thanks for your comment! We are happy that you like the podcast.

I want to respond to your feedback. Our episodes our short by design. That is because we want you to listen every day (4 times per week) and we want you to listen more than once to each episode to improve your comprehension (try to get 10% more each time). We think the short, regular method is more effective than longer episodes once per week.

What do you think?

And yes! We like to create episodes based on listener feedback! What do you want to learn? Please send us an email at [email protected]

Thanks so much!

-Lindsay

Hi Fabio

How are you? Thanks for your message.

We are really happy to hear that the podcast is easy for you to understand. Sometimes movies are much harder and actors use different accents that are not clear. Also you have music, distracting noises, etc. in a movie, right?

I think you should continue listening to the podcast but then also try to watch a short movie segment each week- you can check episode 64 for advice on how to understand movies ok?

Thanks again for listening!

Lindsay

Thanks so much! We are happy that you are a listener of AEE! Welcome!

Hi @musclechan:disqus how are you? Thanks for your message! Glad to hear that you are finding the podcast helpful! Keep listening and we will help you bring your level from intermediate to advanced! Have a great day!

Hi @nacho- thanks for your question. Basically you can say both “I like to travel” and “I like traveling” and the same is true with “I love to travel” and “I love traveling” There are very subtle differences between the two but the differences are not that important. Use either one and you will be fine! By the way, do you like traveling??

Hi Tatsuo

Thanks for your comment. We are really happy that you like the podcast! I am really sorry that you are having trouble accessing the 100 phrases eBook. We are having technical problems with that and we will do our best to get that resolved as soon as possible.

Hello Girls! very good. Thanks. I need to improve my English one day.
Quinta do Sol city, Paraná state Brazil.

Hi girls,

The other day stumbled upon your podcast. Great job! But I have a tip for you:

START USING PODCAST NOTES

It’s a special tag, containing text info, which is embedded in every podcast. For you those are just empty for now. There you can add info, which is difficult to convey by just speaking, for example spelling of the words. Or you can list there useful expressions you use during podcast. Anyway, please pay attention, it’s a very nice and useful thing to have in your podcast! Email me if I can help you with any clarification.

Cheers,
Andrew

Hi there!

I’ve been listening to your podcast for a week and I really like it. I find it’s a very good way to improve my English.

I think you do a very good job! Keep on!

@rocorivero:disqus Welcome to AEE! I am glad that you are finding it helpful! Please keep listening and share it with your friends!

@Keri- it was great chatting with you today! Keep working hard on your venture and have faith that it WILL work out! Just keep moving forward. Let’s talk again soon!

@disqus_bHTNErAiCC:disqus thanks so much! We work hard and we are happy that you are enjoying AEE!

@disqus_mslx4dCrcy:disqus Thanks for letting us know. I have emailed you the ebook. Good luck and enjoy it!

Dear Lindsay
I’m a huge fan of AEE.
And I’d like to say your podcast is very helpful for my english studying.

Recently I saw Jimmy Buffett’s quotation,
“Fun is about as good a habit as there is.”

I don’t know the meaning of this sentence
and go so far as to suspect that it’s wrong grammatically.

Would you help me solve this problem.

Thank you in advance

a sincere fan in S. Korea

Hi Guys,

Well, as first thank You very much for your podcast it is really useful. Every week I am checking and downloading each new episode. I like so much the way you have of explain those doubts that make us or in my case make me so crazy with the grammar. I have to admit I like the American English more than the British English in many aspects, especially into the areas as speaking and listening and what about phrase and verbs? Anyway I am working everyday to improving it. Could you try to explain more about phrase and verbs, prepositions and pronunciation? Please.

Kind regards from Madrid, tomorrow might be from whatever place on the world.

I am from Bosnia and Herzegovina.

I have wanted to improve my English, and fortunately, I found the best and most useful podcast ever 🙂

lot but still not understand some phrase and words. i think we have been
restricted in Iran.

Hi girls! How can i contact you by email, please, would like to ask somethings and suggestions in private? My mail is [email protected]

Hi girls, I just want to let you Know that I have been listening you since September last year, at firts I felt as I was finding an inspirational place to learn and enjoy doint it without the ussual conventions of a regular ESL program. You were the answer to my prayer, I was so inspired and motivates as I was falling in love. But lately, dipite I am bounding with you all, I have a feeling that something is ending or daying out. Is like everything is repetitive and predictible. As if the magic would have gone. At the very beginning I could wait until the other day to listen to you, I lived into a huge state of anxiety until the next episode. But now I am reashing a plateau with you guys. I hope you both could reinvent the show. I want to feel again the initial enthusiasm, the passion, the eager to learn with you. Until then, I will be skip some of your episodes. Regars. Me

Hi Michelle, I love your voice and pronunciation from the first time I listened to you. I’m wanna to know how can I learn pronunciation from you, could you help me? Tks a lot !

Hi girls! It would be interesting to hear from you stories about yours friends who live in America, but originally from other countries and what cultural ”feature” have you learned ? what was really unusual / exciting (traditions, food, etc). Maybe few stories about your travellings to another countries. Thank you in advance! Best regards from Ukraine, Olga.

Hi Lindsay & Michelle.

Thanks for such nice podcasts. These are really helpful for non native speakers like me in improving their English speaking & listening skills.

I would appreciate if you could create a podcast on ‘Asking for an apology’ or ‘asking someone for repeating what they just said’. Also if you could tell some major differences between the British & the American English. I am form India & we are taught British English in schools. I found pronunciation of some words was different in British & American English. Also some phrases which we use in British English sometimes sound weird to native Americans.

Looking forward to ur reply.

Regards,
Mayank

@Naomi- thanks. Good question! We will try to answer it soon

Thank you!!!

Hi Lindsey and Jessica! What’s up Buttercup! ))
My name is Serge, I’m from Ukraine.

I am really fond of listening to your podcasts. Girls, you’re really making my days.
Now I can’t even emagine how I’m gonna live after the IELTS without you. I always listen to you when going to my work everyday in the morning. Thus, your constant giggling, making fun out of siriousness and total drive energies me for the whole working day.

If you mind, could you ask of a favour? I’m working currently on the writing skills. And the issue that bothers me is the follows – if it comes to writing an informal letter to what extent should it be informal? Basically I understand that no slang is allowed, but what about words like – “stuff”, and … whatever?

Can you comment on this, please?

Hi Lindsey and Michelle,

I really enjoy your show, and I have learned so much regarding no matter in English or culture. Most importantly, I have fun while I am listening. I got question for you, how do you guys record your podcast in different location simultaneously? I am very carious about it.

Hi Lyndsay and Michelle, thank you so much for bringing us such a wonderful show! I just rated it on ITunes and i hope it helps keeping it high.

I do have a question for you! I’m now working on a position that requires me writing to people across departments. Sometimes I will need to check with people if a particular thing is one of their duties, of if it should go to another person. But I’m struggling how to say that naturally and concise. What can I say here?

Thank you so much

Hello!
My name is Samal from Kazakhstan. I am your new listener and I really like your podcast. Now I listen to your podcast insead of music. Also it is helping me to improve my listening and speaking. Soon I will have real IELTS exam, so I hope your tips will help me to get at least 7.
Thanx

Welcome!

Hello, I am from Indonesia. Why there is no transkrip of all AEE episodes? As a someone who use english as second language, it is better to add transkrip to each episode so I can learn more because sometime we dont understand what actually you are saying. BTW thank you very much for all awesome episodes

hello Lindsay and Michelle! This is Hiren from Dallas,tx. First of all, I really enjoy listening to your podcasts because they are very informative and filled with lots of energy that you guys bring up. So, thank you for that. And then there is this question i want to ask you. I work at walgreens pharmacy and many a times I experience this situation when prescriptions are absurdly expensive. And I really struggle to respond when customers get angry, frustrated, stressed out or sad. So, what kind of phrases I can use to respond to all these above mentioned reactions in such difficult situation without being critical to the company I work for.

Hello my name is em,,i’ve been an avid listener of ur podcast for more than a year now,,I’ve learned so much from you guys,,thank you,,
By the way there’s couple of things i wanna ask u about,,i’m quite confused on how to use the phrasal verbs-pull up,pull over,pull off-all i know for sure they are related to the words-stop,park,and drive.I just dont have the confidence using those phrasal verbs,,Can u help me pls..thanks

Hello from Taiwan! this is definitely the best podcast that I’ve been searching for IN MY LIFE!
My name is CP, working hard on spoken English for years. While my writing, reading, listening and speaking have reached to a level that most of business in TW accept, I couldn’t jump over the obstacle of natural English speaking.
I wonder if I’m able to have your response to this question about English speaking.
“to PRONOUNCE more clearly, precisely at fast speed, I wonder how American natives EFFECTIVELY generate and combine all sounds including vowels and consonants coming from different point of mouth, tongue and wherever it is”
By the way, I like the way Teacher Michelle generate sounds, which sounds like all her sounds are generated from the front of mouth, teeth and tongue.
I would be so much appreciated if I am able to get response from you teachers.
Have a nice day!

Great episode! BTW,I was wondering where i can check up transcripts?

Hi! I’m an English teacher, translator, and an owner of a select shop in Japan. I found your channel on podcast and thought all of the episodes you shared were really really helpful and more Japanese should listen to it. So, here is a suggestion. I want to add Japanese subtitles… or make a Japanese version of the trascript for you to upload on the website. How does that sound? What you are saying are really what they have to know, and I want to share it with the people of all levels!

Hi Yukiko . Sorry for interfering . I thing , to listen this podcast you have to have at least advenced level . And if you are advanced – the subtitles in your language will just disturb . Sorry for my opinion , the question wasn’t for me .

Hi Yukiko

Thanks for your idea. While we have a lot of Japanese listeners, we also have many listeners from other countries. It is true what Gregory said that most listeners should be at intermediate to advanced level so there shouldn’t be a need for Japanese subtitles. I would challenge you to use the podcast with your students using the English transcriptions. You can get them at allearsenglish.com/transcripts. Thanks for listening and good luck!

Amazing!

Hi girls, I’m wrighting from Italy, and you have become my travel buddies since I casually found you one year ago. Now I can’t drive my car without your nice company ?‍?‍?
I recently bought a ring, and I intend to ask my girlfriend in marriage during our tour of NYC at the end of this August ???
Can you please suggest me some romantic location where to spread hearts all over the air???❤️
Thanks a lot and please don’t stop broadcasting, you are great!

Thanks a lot Lindsay for your priceless advices, I’ll make good use of them. Would be an honor to inspire one of your episodes.
Thanks again, I think you are the perfect teachers for connection.

Hi that’s a great phrase and we’ll make an episode about it soon! Thanks for listening

Hi Lindsay! I wish to thank you and Jessica for sharing your knowledge and expertise to us, especially when it comes to IELTS. I have received my IELTS result today, which includes an overall bandscore of 7.5 (L:7.5,R:8,S:8,W:6.5). My target scores were 7 and above in all components. I am a non-native English speaker and I haven’t enrolled in any review center for my IELTS exam at all, so basically, what I did was purely self-study. To be honest, I didn’t really expect to receive those scores, especially in the Speaking part, since my previous attempts gave me a uniform scores of 6.5. I am so thankful that I found your channel on Stitcher 2 months ago, since your episodes helped a lot in my IELTS quest. I just followed your advice and strategies in IELTS Speaking, practised and prayed a lot and voilaaaaaa my bandscore raised from 6.5 to 8. Wow, until now I still can’t believe that it’s really possible. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for all your efforts in sharing your expertise to us. Although, my Writing score didn’t reach my target of 7, I am still hoping that sooner or later I will be getting 7 and above in Writing. In fact, I am planning to request for a remark or maybe purchasing your special course whenever I have enough money. Again thank you so much.

Hello. I’m Izumi from Japan.
I’ve been listening your awesome podcast since I found it out.
In some episodes, you answered listeners’ question. I’d like to ask you a question, too.
I’m using some websites which runs for giving opportunity to chat foreigners for language learners. I often receive some messages from foreigners and they are men. I’m wondering their purpose is to practice languages or just girl-hunting.
I’m afraid that this question is fitting in here. I’m sorry, but I just want to ask you it and get your opinion.

Thank you.

Hello Lindsay and Michelle:

I am a big fan of All Ears English podcast. Since I found your podcast this May. I fell in love with it immediately and listened every single episode. AEE is a great company while driving, working out or doing chores, I listen it whenever is possible. You guys did a amassing job. I told a lot of friends about how amassing it is. I so much like your voice, your clear pronunciation, your energy behind microphone, widely range of knowledge that not only help me in academic but also in social life. I live in USA. Topics of American culture in social life help me a void some awkwardness, and feel more comfortable and confident to get along with people. your slogan “connection, not perfection” encourage us not to seek perfection so much, just connect with people help me talk more also. I see significant progress of my english. Thanks a lot for your dedication. You are deeply appreciated.

Today my question is how to use use to, used to, get used to

Is used to a phrase of verb? or use to is a phrase of verb, used to is just the past tense of use to. but I heard a lot that native english speaker say use to when they talk about past. How about get used to? You’ll get used to it. is get a linking verb? can it be removed? can I say you will use to it instead? It is confusing.

It will be wonderful if it get answered at any upcoming episode.

Thank you very much

Lily

Hi Girls,
I love your podcast and wants to thank you for doing this! It is very helpful to improve my english.
I have a question for you. I heard in another podcast this phrase: “he is droping his jam” and i wonder what that means.
Maybe you can help me to understand 🙂
Thanks a lot
Ina from Swizerland

Thank you guys.I appreciated it

Hey girls! What’s shaking?

I am a student from Germany and -of course- a passionate listener of your show!

Your podcast is absolutely amazing! I am very glad that I found it on Itunes. So please, keep on recording!

In a recent lesson we read an excerpt about multiculturalism in Britain and I have a question about a quote that is made in it.
I would appreciate it a lot, if you could help me to understand this phrase better!
“[The] malign impact of multiculturalism and political correctness has for years seen Britain segregated into inward-looking communities that eschew British values while the forces of law and order walk on eggshells, desperate not to offend”
What does the author mean considering “political correctness”?
How could you define “inward-looking communities”?
Is “walking on eggshells” an idiom?
Generally, what is the overal point of this phrase?
I hope this question suits in the comment section and is not too long!
Thank you very much in advance!
I wish you a lovely day!
Sari

Hi Lindsay and Michelle!
I’m Yukiko from Osaka in Japan.

I really enjoy listening to your podcasts and your fun conversations! Thank you so much for the fun time!!

I have a question.
How would you use the expression “later on”? Why don’t you just say “later” instead? Is there a difference? And I would also like to know how to use other expressions with similar meanings such as “in a bit,” “in a minute,” or “in a second.”

You guys would make me super happy if you answered my question!!!

Yoroshiku (that’s a Japanese expression, and there’s no way to translate it into English. It means something like thanks in advance.)
