Many thanks!
Слушаю подкасты Тима с большим удовольствием. Все четко, по делу и, самое главное, с пользой.
Да, подкаст полностью на английском языке, но для среднего уровня (B1) сложности для понимания не вызывает. Напротив, можно улучшить свои listening-навыки. Или, как сказали бы англоговорящие: podcast is easily understandable for somebody who is a Russian speaker and has a B1 level.
Так что Тиму огромное спасибо за этот труд. Ждём новые подкасты :)
Really easy way to get something new about English
English is not my native language, so I systematically try to invest time in polishing my skills. This podcast in a fun manner helps to work on English.
For example, episode #40 about English words from French is really fun. Also I studied German, it was interesting to listen a link between German and English (episode #41)
