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. And for your convenience, we also include a transcript of the audio to help you refer back to any parts you may have struggled with.

En: The tunnels beneath Tallinn's Old Town hide secrets and stories. Et: Kuumal suvepäeval otsustasid Kalev, Ingrid ja Maarika avastada neid salapäraseid käike. En: On a hot summer day, Kalev, Ingrid, and Maarika decided to explore these mysterious passages. Et: Kalev, noor ja uudishimulik ajaloohuviline, oli kindel, et leiab legendaarse sala, kus peituvad vanad esemed.
