LearnEnglish Podcast
LearnEnglish Podcasts is a popular English language podcast series offered by the British Council. This podcast aims to improve listening, reading, and understanding skills in both general and business English. It offers a range of special features to make learning English enjoyable.
One key feature is the ability to download podcasts for offline access, allowing users to listen anytime and anywhere. After finishing an episode, users can delete it to free up space on their device. New podcasts are added weekly, ensuring a constant supply of content across various topics.
Interactive audio scripts enable users to easily repeat difficult phrases or learn new vocabulary. Additionally, pitch control allows for adjusting the audio speed, particularly useful for improving comprehension of fast speakers. Background playing allows users to listen to the audio with the screen turned off, making it convenient for on-the-go learning.
Simple exercises are provided for each episode, with a progress screen to track individual progress. The app also offers integrated social media sharing, allowing users to share their watching and listening experiences on platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and email.
Feedback is encouraged, and users can contact the British Council for assistance or to share their thoughts on the app. The privacy policy and terms of use for LearnEnglish Podcasts can be found on the British Council's website.
