Hello, welcome to another episode of the podcast. This one is sponsored by I-talkie.

That's the service that I mentioned the most on the podcast and I'm happy to be

sponsored by I-talkie because I think that they provide a genuinely useful service for you and I think it's like a really good mix that you could regularly listen to Luke's English podcast and pick up lots of language, but you really do need to be activating that

language. You need to be using it. You've got to practice, practice, practice,

practice, speak English, communicate.

It's a vital part of gaining really good English, bringing your English to fluency.

Your brain, right?

Your brain is designed to actually learn languages. It is and it's not some sort of magic, it's not a magical process. It's pretty straightforward really as well as you know applying yourself to learning the

language actually using it to communicate with real people is probably the most direct way of improving your language learning.

So speak to people and you might think who am I going to speak to?

Well the thing is that with I talkie there are English speakers

and teachers just there right now just like waiting for you to get in touch with them,

waiting to either give you lessons or just talk to you.

So there are people now available on the internet

and I-Toki can put you in touch with them.

So if you visit I-Toki and have a look through some of the different

teachers they have available and they have a lot. You can see their profiles, you can see that some of them are

specialised in different things. So really it's possible to get either a tailored set of one-to-one

lessons or just some speaking time with an English speaker who will be,

you know, really glad to talk to you and share ideas with you and things

like that. Don't be shy, give it a try, it could make a huge difference to your English.

And remember that if you sign up with I-talking and you buy some
