HADAR SHEMESH
About this episode

Have you ever tried to practice rhythm in English before? In this episode, we're diving into the rhythm of English, an essential part of speaking with fluency and confidence. English is a syllable-timed language, meaning that the rhythm is based on the time between syllables, not on individual words. 

Let's practice together today with a metronome to help you develop rhythm in English in several different exercises!
