About this episode

I sit down with Rod, an English teacher in Brazil, and his story will inspire you.  When you are having those days when English is frustrating you, think to how well Rod has learned the English language. It can be done. It just takes a lot of hard work and dedication. All of the money I earn on this video will go to help an organization that assists differently-able folks in Brazil, APAE BRAZIL!  🇧🇷  

Here is the link to Rod's school: https://tinyurl.com/y4sh4pq8  

💰 All proceeds from this video will go to apae.com.br
