Ep. 3 Reading: A Life's Work

  • Summary

  • Hi and welcome to the 3rd episode of Learn English with Amy, the podcast that helps you listen and learn more. ⁣

    ⁣This episode features one of two conversations with my dear friend Lynn.⁣ Lynn and I met as teenagers, in our first year at George Washington University, in Washington, D.C. She was, and is, super smart and extremely funny. ⁣ In this conversation, I ask Lynn about her first career, working for an *incredibly famous* Hollywood actor and producer, and being *paid to read* screenplays and manuscripts.⁣ ⁣

    ⁣At the end of the episode, I talk more about the some of the words featured in our conversation, including two uncommon but funny words that you can listen out for: galoshes and yahoos!⁣ ⁣

    ⁣And in the next episode (Ep. 4), I will talk with Lynn about her current career, as an educator in New York City, where now she is paid to *teach* reading. Be sure to subscribe so you can listen to the next episode as soon as it's released!⁣
