Hi, I'm Lily from South Korea. I've been living in the U.S. for 9 months now, and I can't tell you how much your podcast has helped me with my English listening skills. Even when I go back to Korea in 3 months, I'll still be listening to it. Thank you so much.
Hi Lindsay, Michelle, Jessica & Abry; I am Goli and I wanted to say I really appreciate the amazing work the All Ears English team puts into this podcast! I’ve learned so much from listening, and it has been both enjoyable and incredibly helpful for improving my English skills. Your approach makes learning fun and relatable. I have a suggestion for future episodes—would it be possible to create some content related to dating culture in the U.S.? It would be great to learn about the cultural aspects as well as some useful idioms and vocabulary that are commonly used in dating contexts. I think it would be very helpful for listeners navigating life here. Thank you again for all your hard work. Keep up the fantastic job!
I can’t remember how many years I’ve been listening to your podcast, but I’m so grateful that I can continue to learn something new every single day. I have to say, the new approach of releasing series on specific topics like the Olympics and politics is AWESOME! I love these topics, and they've truly helped me connect more deeply with everyday life in the U.S.. Thank you for your team’s dedication. It makes all the difference.☺️
Hi Lindsay, Michelle, Aubrey and Jessica! I have been your listener for almost two years after moving to the US for work. Each episode is so helpful to learn native speaker’s expressions used in everyday settings, which is difficult to learn in an English class and textbooks. I also learn American culture from your conversations. I am glad when I find such native expressions in TV shows and articles. I am motivated very much by the episodes updated almost everyday. I also subscribed 5 mins Quiz and B2 course. Thank you for your great job.
This podcast offers genuinely valuable content and I’ve taken away some great tips from several episodes. However, I do find the listening experience a bit challenging. The delivery is often overly energetic, with a fast-paced, high-volume style that can make it hard to follow or stay focused.
First, there is too much advertisement. They will push on you their ads non-stop. Second, the authors are too woke. Almost every podcast comes with comments regarding COVID vaccines, DEI and such. If you want to get a podcast just about English, look somewhere else- American English podcast, Hadar Hemesh’s podcast just to name a few.
