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. Our podcast is not just for language learners, it's also for travelers or people who wants to connect with their roots. Are you planning a trip to Tallinn, Tartu, or Pärnu?

En: The scent of spring wafted through the open car window as Kaarel searched for a parking spot in the store lot. Et: Maarja, tema teismeline tütar, istus kõrvalistmel ja klõbistas telefoniekraanil, justkui oleks seal kirjas kogu maailma tähtsaim vestlus. En: Maarja, his teenage daughter, sat in the passenger seat, tapping away on her phone as if it contained the world's most important conversation.
