Our podcast is the perfect tool for you. Studies show that the key to mastering a second language is through repetition and active processing. That's why each episode of our podcast features a story in Bulgarian, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Bulgarian and English. This approach not only allows you to fully understand and absorb the vocabulary and grammar but also provides a bilingual support to aid your listening comprehension. But we don't stop there.

En: A spring wind gently caressed the green hills around the training camp. Bg: Птиците чуруликаха весело, а въздухът бе свеж и изпълнен с енергия.
