Do THIS to Sound More Natural

About this episode

In this episode, Dane Rivarola discusses the concept of 'pre-loading' to help listeners refine their English communication skills.

Your English is fine. But something still feels a bit off, right? In this episode I want to show you something I learned at university that completely changed the way I understand how language works. It's one of those things that once you start paying attention, you'll see it everywhere. This episode is all about something I like to call "pre-loading" and how you can use to really refine what you say and how it is recieved.
