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.

En: The old town of Tallinn was filled with joyful people and lively music on the eve of Jaanipäev. Et: Tänavad särasid värvilistest tulede ridadest, ja õhus hõljus peene lillede ja lõkke suitsu segu. En: The streets shone with rows of colorful lights, and the air carried a delicate blend of flowers and bonfire smoke. Et: Maarika, noor kunstnik, seisis oma stuudio akna ees.
