#338 Overcoming Shyness (Anna, Confident Business English)
Today we have a conversation between Anna Connelly and me on the topic of overcoming shyness. This was originally an episode we record on Anna's podcast, Confident Business English, where Anna was mostly interviewing me about my experiences with feeling shy and my tips for the audience. Listening back to this one, I actually felt quite inspired, and I really hope that by re-sharing this today, you'll feel the same too.We talk about my story with shyness and how it affected me growing up, my rock bottom moment on my first solo-trip abroad, and the steps I took to start building confidence, which also helped me in my language learning.Show notes page - https://levelupenglish.school/podcast338________________________________________Don't forget to check out Anna's work on the links below.Website: https://confidentbusinessenglish.comApple Podcasts | Spotify________________________________________Have a question?

#337 11 Things I Learnt Teaching English
I've been teaching English online for almost 10 years now, and over that time I've picked up quite a lot of patterns and similarities between all my students. In this episode, I share 11 life lessons and other interesting things that I've learnt from my students, my lessons, and running an online teaching business. This is actually a previously-recorded episode from the Level Up English Private podcast feed. It's the second episode I ever recorded, but since it has never been released publicly before, I hope it's new for you.Show notes page - https://levelupenglish.school/podcast337Have a question?

#336 Moving from UK to Thailand: The Good & The Bad
Have you ever wondered what it's like to cycle through Bangkok?That's exactly what I'm doing in today's episode. I'm taking the podcast to the streets and I'm riding my bicycle across the city while avoiding stray dogs, and sharing my views on life in Bangkok.I mostly talk about the things I like and dislike about living here, and some ways in which the UK might be better. I hope you enjoy it!This was a somewhat experimental episode. Much of the audio had to be cut because of the wind, and all of it had to be edited to make my voice clearer. So sorry about any strange parts in the audio. If you like the idea of these outdoor episodes, let me know and I'll invest in better microphones for next time.Show notes page - https://levelupenglish.school/podcast336Have a question?

In this episode, we'll be talking about relationship slang. In the modern day of internet and social media, slang is used all the time when it comes to dating, finding a partner, and flirting.I share a handful of slang phrases that have been around for a while, and are likely not going to disappear any time soon. With each one, I give examples, share my opinion, and invite you to do the same.Show notes page - https://levelupenglish.school/podcast335Have a question?
