Thinking in English

Thinking in English is a podcast designed for intermediate and advanced English learners. I believe that thinking is an incredibly important step on the road fluency, and this podcast is going to help you achieve this by discussing topics ranging from politics and economics, to philosophy and science. Rather than "learning English", Thinking in English focuses on "learning in English." Learn something new, listen to something interesting, and improve your English at the same time!

According to some people, this right is currently at risk. People are starting to believe that free speech is in danger.  Today I want to look in more depth at this topic. What is the biggest threat to free speech at the moment? Is it censorship? Or is it misinformation? In order to talk about free speech, and many other topics, we need to understand and know how to use paired conjunctions. Paired conjunctions are very useful. They allow us to connect words, phrases, or ideas together, and are always used in pairs. Let’s practice using paired conjunctions and discuss free speech in today’s episode of Thinking in English Grammar!

    Pluto: What is a Planet? (English Vocabulary Lesson)

Is it eight… or nine? For a long time, children around the world were taught that our solar system had nine planets, including a small, distant one named Pluto. But in 2006, Pluto was reclassified. It was no longer considered a “real” planet, and the official number of planets dropped to just eight. Why did this happen? Why was Pluto removed from the list of planets? And what exactly is a planet anyway? In today’s episode of Thinking in English, we’ll look at what a planet actually is, why Pluto used to be a planet but isn’t anymore, and how science changes over time. We’ll also talk about the history of planet discoveries, like Neptune and Uranus, and how our understanding of the solar system has developed. This episode is also a great chance to learn scientific vocabulary and practice thinking critically in English. We’ll explain important terms like orbit, gravity, dwarf planet, and clearing its orbit. And we’ll discuss some fascinating facts about space, science, and the nature of definitions themselves. So… is Pluto really a planet? Or not? Let’s find out.

Or should employers make workers spend their entire work day in the office? This has been a major discussion in the business world since the Covid pandemic changed the way we work. There are arguments on both sides of the debate. These arguments centre on whether it is better to control workers or give them freedom.   Today I want to talk about this debate in more detail, while introducing some important grammar. In order to talk about this topic, we need to understand and know how to use causative grammar.  In this episode, we will focus on the causative “make” and “let”, while in Friday’s bonus episode we will discuss “have” and “get”. Let’s practise this grammar and discuss remote work and company policies in this episode of Thinking in English Grammar!

    High-Context vs. Low-Context Cultures: Why Context Matters in English Learning (English Vocabulary Lesson)

Learning vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation are obviously difficult tasks, but I think something else can be just as challenging. Context and culture. Words and grammar are not the only way that we communicate. The world isn’t always direct and clear. In fact, some cultures and parts of the world rely extensively on context to communicate meanings. Today, we are going to discuss culture and context in language learning. We’ll discuss low-context cultures, high-context cultures, and how this affects English learning and English usage!
