You’re studying every day… but you feel stuck.

You forget vocabulary. You hesitate to speak. And you start to wonder… “Why am I even doing this?”

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Many English learners experience frustration, boredom, or burnout at some point on their journey. But what if I told you that philosophy could help?

In this episode of Thinking in English, we’re going to explore practical, powerful lessons from some of history’s greatest thinkers: Stoics, Existentialists, Buddhists, and more. These ideas have helped people cope with life’s biggest challenges… so why not apply them to the challenge of learning English?

Whether you’re feeling unmotivated, overwhelmed, or just tired of forgetting everything you study, this episode is for you!
