It Takes Two to Tango: A Conversation with Lisa Wood | Advanced English Conversations (E79)
In this episode of Hear You Go, I speak with English teacher and neuro-language coach Lisa Wood about the importance of being an active, kind, gentle listener in the dance that is a conversation.
Our chat is perfect for advanced English learners, English teachers, and anyone interested in mindset, confidence, and how listening shapes communication. You’ll hear how Lisa sees language learning as a dance between speaker and listener (it always takes two to tango!), and why connection—not perfection—is the real goal of fluency.
🎧 You’ll hear:
- What The CALM Way is and how it supports learners
- Why listening is never passive, but always active
- How mindset influences confidence and fluency
- Encouragement to show up and communicate, even if it’s not “perfect”
As always, I’ll note some useful intermediate/advanced language (B1/C1 Intermediate & Advanced English) along the way.
