    There is nothing more fulfilling as learning new word, guess it's meaning or find the story behind it. The latter will make it almost impossible to forget. Learning with understanding❤ Thank you, Ben! Always a pleasure to hear your voice!

    You're the best english teacher I've seen out there. My biggest goal in English is to reach C1. I wanna have enough knowledge so that I can write a novel in English someday.
