ETJ English Podcast E01: Tools and Methods I Use to Learn Languages & Pronunciation

In the first episode of the ETJ English podcast, I dive into the transition from my previous podcast, "Journeys With Elliott," and introduce the fresh direction of this new series. Join me for a laid-back chat about language learning, where I share the tools and methods I use to improve my Japanese. It's a cozy catch-up session that sets the stage for the exciting episodes. Whether you're into language learning or just looking for some relaxed listening, this episode is the perfect place to start.

Hope you enjoy this one. It was a lot of fun making a podcast again. I hope you like the new changes. Please let me know anything you'd like me to talk about in future episodes in the comments. Cheers x

As one of your Japanese fans, I’m so delighted to know that you’re studying Japanese and that you love Japan.
It’s amazing to hear you mention words like “Yu-Gi-Oh!” and “Death Note” in Japanese—it’s such a surreal feeling.

I also admire your dedication to learning. I know how challenging it can be to continue studying while raising kids and working.

I’m really looking forward to hearing about your journey to Japan in the future!

Hello Eriot,

I’m one of the Japanese people who enjoy and find your YouTube channel incredibly useful for improving my English skills. I was surprised to hear that a native English speaker like you feels exactly the same way I do. There’s no particular reason why I’ve been passionate about studying English since I was little, but somehow, I just can’t stop enjoying it.
If you could introduce aspects of daily life in the UK, like grocery shopping, having coffee with friends, the changing seasons, or day trips, I would definitely enjoy it.

Thank you! 😊

Absolutely amazing, I'm eagerly looking forward to listening to another one. You're the best 🥇✌🏻

[bananvital]

Elliott, please, keep making as much content as you can. It’s priceless for all English learners 👨🏻‍🏫

As for the topics I’d like to hear about in the future: how about British cuisine and your/your wife’s personal experience? I’ve been to England for a fortnight and would like to know more about it. Shortbread is my favourite ❤

[juliacosta]

I have to say: my English improved because I listened Journeys with Elliot everyday while I was driving to work. So, having a long, good and solid listening practice is perfect for level up your English.

I’m glad you’re learning Japanese and have your heart set on it 🫶 we need more episodes! I think my pronunciation is better because of you. Thank you for working harder and harder 🙏🏻

I like the part about learning japanese and being vegan/vegeterian (was actualy surprised about both themes).

Elliott, your idea for the postcast is excellent and entertaining. As a suggestion, I recommend sharing your funny anecdotes—those you can tell—and I’m sure they’ll be a hit. On the other hand, you won’t need to prepare anything; just remember a funny story and with a good beer by your side, you’ll be chatting away like a parrot, haha. They will be very useful for those of us learning proper British English. Cheers.
