This week I explore the topic of education and ask the question: What would the world be like if everyone had access to a good education?

In the episode I discuss:

  • 3 useful English expressions used in an infographic on education
  • a video on one of the world’s best education systems
  • a video on how schools kill children’s creativity

You can download this free pdf with a summary of all the expressions and resources mentioned in the episode here

You may also be interested in downloading my free self-study guide I created for B2 & C1 learners with the aim to help you achieve greater English fluency. The guide covers all core language skills using authentic material and interesting topics. You can download the guide here
