Most language learning advice treats fluency like a race: study harder, memorize faster, drill more. But real fluency doesn't come from grinding through flashcards or forcing rigid routines into your life. It comes from building a practice that adapts to you — rooted in meaning, voice, culture, and the life you're actually living. The Fluency Fix is your guide to learning any language in a way that's sustainable, human, and grounded in The Fluent Framework. Each episode tackles a specific ch ...

Every episode is fast, focused, and actionable. No fluff, no filler — just 6-10 minutes of clear explanation, natural examples, and practical strategies you can use right away. But here's what makes this podcast diffe ...

Context Clues is for anyone who's ever felt confused by American culture — even if you speak perfect English. Why do Americans say "How are you?" but don't actually want to know? What does "Let's grab coffee sometime" really mean? Why do we split the check down to the penny, but get uncomfortable when someone asks for help? Hosted by LJ, an ESL teacher and founder of The Immersion Studio, Context Clues unpacks the small, strange rituals of American life and traces them back to the values, co ...

Have you ever received an apology that somehow made you feel worse? "I'm sorry you feel that way." "I'm sorry if I offended you." "Mistakes were made." These phrases sound like apologies.
