  • In this episode, let's find out if you are too old to learn English?
  • Is it too late to learn a language? Is it possible to learn English as an adult? I'm going to answer these questions.

He is learning English and listens to this podcast. The truth is that I admire people who don't make excuses. And that's what inspired me to do this episode.
