Hey, this is Ethan. This is a simple sample of the vocabulary MP3 breakdown
included with each lesson of our Fluent with Friends course.
The goal is to give you some extra practice with the most important words, so you
never forget them — ina convenient format that you can listen to while you're in
your car, at the store, walking your dog, etc.
This will actually be for all 3 clips that you are getting with the mini-course this
week. So, if some of the vocabulary still doesn’t seem familiar, don’t worry, you can
actually use this all week long, with all of the lessons.
The total length of this vocabulary review is normally around 10 minutes, covering
examples from the entire episode, but because the scenes we're covering in this
Masteclass series are just a portion of the first episode, it will be shorter.
Also, make sure you check out the PDFs that come along with the lesson.
