"The more you know, the more you realise you don't know"This is an example of a well-known proverb (that is so true for language learning too, by the way) and in this episode, we'll be looking at several proverbs, quotes, maxims, and aphorisms that contain some wisdom or rule for living a better life.We'll be learning a few key terms and also exploring the vocabulary within each proverb, while exploring the meaning and wisdom behind each one.聽Show notes page聽- https://levelupenglish.school/podcast346Get access to coaching, group classes, and 100s of bonus lessons and episodes on Level Up English.鉃★笍 Become a Member Today: https://www.levelupenglish.school/join/鉃★笍 Join the Free Mini Course - https://www.levelupenglish.school/mini猸愶笍 Join Level Up English - https://www.levelupenglish.school Become a member and get: Podcast Transcripts Private Podcast Group Classes Private Coaching And over 500 online lessons!

#345 How to Make Your English Sentences Longer
Sentences that are too short and simple is an issue that all language learners face. We can say what we want, but we don't sound natural because all of our sentences sound like children.In this episode, we're going to practise extending sentences and making more natural phrases using Relative Clauses. I spend just 5 minutes reviewing the grammar, and then delve into a casual chat where I share my answers to a few questions using these patterns, and I invite you to do the same.Show notes page聽- https://levelupenglish.school/podcast345鉃★笍 Join the Free Mini Course - https://www.levelupenglish.school/mini猸愶笍 Join Level Up English - https://www.levelupenglish.school Become a member and get: Podcast Transcripts Private Podcast Group Classes Private Coaching And over 500 online lessons!

#344 How to Actually Set & Achieve Goals
It's great to have goals, but what's the point of having them if we never actually achieve them?Or maybe you do eventually get there, but wouldn't it be nice if we could get there faster and more efficiently?In this episode, I talk about SMART goals and give examples of how you can make your goals Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-Bound. I give examples from my own goals in life, and also relate it to the example of learning English as a goal.Show notes page聽- https://levelupenglish.school/podcast344鉃★笍 Join the Free Mini Course - https://www.levelupenglish.school/mini猸愶笍 Join Level Up English - https://www.levelupenglish.school Become a member and get: Podcast Transcripts Private Podcast Group Classes Private Coaching And over 500 online lessons!

#343 When 'Terrific' Meant 'Terrifying'
This is an episode I'm excited for because we'll be looking at a group of words that have gone through a similar history; namely, they have all had quite a drastic change in their meanings over time.Many words we use today in English such as 'terrific' or 'fond' used to have almost completely opposite meanings!聽In this episode, I explore why these changes took place, share both the old and new meanings, and give examples from my life for each one. I'll invite you to do the same.Show notes page聽- https://levelupenglish.school/podcast343Get access to coaching, group classes, and 100s of bonus lessons and episodes on Level Up English.鉃★笍 Become a Member Today: https://www.levelupenglish.school/join/鉃★笍 Join the Free Mini Course - https://www.levelupenglish.school/mini猸愶笍 Join Level Up English - https://www.levelupenglish.school Become a member and get: Podcast Transcripts Private Podcast Group Classes Private Coaching And over 500 online lessons!
