Episode description

There's no point beating around the bush, some aspects of learning languages can be difficult. In English, one of these aspects is the -ing form and gerunds. When is it a noun and not a verb? Well, Oriana and I are here to get to the point. We discuss some tips about how to use these particular aspects. The why and when and how. And maybe we might beat around the bush a little bit. We like dancing. And there are lots of parallels between dancing and language learning? Are there any? We discuss how our attitude to dancing has shaped the way we learn. We also talk about how dancers approach their craft and how you too can use some of these tricks to use in your learning journey. This episode is dedicated to our dance teachers, and any of the dancers out there, learning languages. Do you dance? Does it help you learn anything else? What are some activities that you think help with you learning languages? We'd love to hear it.
