How is the course organized?
🎧 Weekly podcast sessions
Each week, you will listen to 2 podcast episodes on the same topic, each lasting 20-30 minutes. The first episode is a monologue where Irina slowly and simply discusses an interesting topic.
The second episode is a dialogue between Irina and another native speaker, where they discuss the same topic. All podcasts are related to the common theme of "Self-Development," which means that key vocabulary will be repeated in different episodes, helping you remember them better.

📄 Scripts for each episode
For every episode, you will receive a detailed script with timestamps and comments from the teacher. The script highlights key constructions, words, and phrases, indicates the cases, and provides additional examples.
These materials will help you understand the content of the podcasts better and reinforce your learning.
