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 Estonian, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Estonian 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. Research in sociolinguistics highlights the importance of culture in language learning, which is why we provide a list of vocabulary words and a transcript of the audio to help you understand the cultural context of the story.

Maybe you want to speak Estonian with your grandparents from Narva?

En: They were three friends — Risto, Maarja, and Katrin. Et: Ühel hilissuvisel pärastlõunal otsustasid nad minna Tallinna Teletorni. En: One late summer afternoon, they decided to visit the Tallinna Teletorn (Tallinn TV Tower). Et: See oli Risto plaan. En: It was Risto's plan. Et: Ta soovis pildistada päikeseloojangut, midagi erilist oma professionaalseks portfoolioks. En: He wanted to photograph the sunset, something special for his professional portfolio.
