Episode 11: English teacher, Jenny Nadia from Madagascar, shows her conversational skills
In today's episode, an English teacher originally from Madagascar but living in South Africa, Jenny Nadia, gives us excellent examples of great conversational skills. You can tell by the natural way in which she uses English that she's constantly surrounded by English speakers. Her variety of English is quite interesting to analyze because of all the features that are common in many regions of Africa, in terms of grammar and pronunciation choices. She has excellent command of conversational vocabulary and complex structures despite some slips I mention in this episode. Also, she's a great example of how many English speakers use hedging to soften our ideas and expressions. She was also a delightful person to talk with and I'm looking forward to keeping in contact with her. I believe it's important for us teachers to stick together and learn from each other. So again, thanks a lot for this incredible opportunity Jenny.
