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: Airi began her morning by the Tuhala Nõiakaev (Witch's Well), where a large outdoor market was being organized in honor of Midsummer's Day. Et: Õhk oli täis rõõmsat suminad ja lõhnadest tulvil: suitsutatud kala, värskelt valmistatud karamell ja pärnade magus aroom. En: The air was filled with joyful humming and scents aplenty: smoked fish, freshly made caramel, and the sweet aroma of lime trees. Et: Airi seadis oma käsitöötoodete laua valmis, täis klaaskuule, puidust nikerdatud mänguasju ja lillemustriga tekstiile. En: Airi set up her craft products table, filled with glass spheres, wooden carved toys, and textiles with floral patterns. Et: Tema sõber Maarja aitas tal lauda kaunistada.
