I work at Sainsbury’s and have four night shifts a week. And I realized today that I listened to Luke’s podcasts for 30 hours last week during my boring work. Each time I understand more and more. It’s an amazing discovery for me. I am proud of myself and thank you so much for your work. I have been learning English for a year and sometimes I lose motivation, but every time you inspire me. I am from Ukraine and we are having a very difficult time now. But you make me smile and always remind me to keep going. My big dream is to get a degree in the UK and when I graduate I will definitely mention your name))

I am from Palestine. This is my best channel to learn English.

I am from Panama, I stared listening to Luke's Podcast because I was in a deep depression after I got used, manipulated and rejected by a man whom I thought was the love of my life. To be honest, Luke has made me feel less pain with those podcasts and I stared to take more seriously english. In the past, I found it very hard to understand british accent, but now it is easier. Now, my goal is to improve my grammar and I am working on it while I also improve my listesting. Thanks Luke, not just because you are teaching a lot, but because you have been part of my process of healing my heart, even if you don't know it. God bless you.

Thank you Luke for your support my efforts ❤

Man I adore the British accent.

I started listening to your podcasts end of July 2023 and it helped me to improve my IELTS listening score from 6.5 to 8.5!

Look is more than a teacher ❤ Big thumbs up

Great work, Luke. Just go on, please, surely you won't get your children starved regardless the stuff put on your table.

Every day, I go to bed with you podcasts, and I've never reached the end because falling asleep 😂

Hello every body...I am new listener from Indonesia glad to be here. Thanks a million

Hi Luke!! I' m Montse, a retired English teacher. I' m from San Leonardo, a little village in the province of Soria. Thank you so much for your inspiring and valuable work!!!

I'm a Ninja looking for another Ninjas! 😂. It's amazing listening the Luke's podcast and improve our listening (Thank you very much Luke, please don't stop) but my resolution for this year is improve my speaking as well. Anybody has the same resolution? Maybe we can chat and have videocalls or something like that to keep improving our English. Please write me Ninjas ❤️

For a very long time, I used to learn English through reading. Then I got a smartphone and listened to a great variety of topics. I had the chance to meet an English lady wishing to learn my own language, so we are chatting on the phone half English, half French and we only correct our mistakes in the end not to hinder the flow. It gave me such confidence that now I'm learning Italian and German. It was a long journey but every path had its reward. I wish all the best to you, your loved ones and everybody out there🎉

LUKE! I’m Linda and I’m from Québec City ,Canada. I discovered you about two months ago. I am a retired teacher (elementary school) and I love the way you teach. Your prononciation is very clear. It’s dynamic, enthusiastic and You are very funny. I listen to you in the morning while I knit. Now, I still have to find someone to talk to. Could you move in Quebec city? I would like to be your student in real life! (HAHA!) I Hope to find someone like you to talk with.Thank you so much! HAPPY New Year!

hi LUKE! I’m Dorota and I’m from Warsow, Poland. I feel that I'm lucky bastard. six monts ago I decided to improve my English and exercise a bit my lazy mind and I immidiately cross your podcast. five minutes later I fell in love with your art. I find what you do is art. You are very funny, witty, a bit absurd and you make my believe Im abble to lern english! these six months with you in my headphones, a little grammar with doulingo and regular english conversations with my friend make me really better at it. And most importantly: I'm having fun! Thank you for being you :)

Dear Luke I have been listening to you for almost 5 years, your podcasts have helped me to improve my British accent. As an Iranian English learner having the right English accent wasn't an easy deal for me, however hard work pays eventually I really appreciate your hard work ♥️😍🙏🏻

I heard that, hey, leave a comment on the comments. So I would like to say, I hope you all get what you wanted in 2024. You all have good health in 2024. And you all will getting better and better in 2024 and the future.

Thanks Luke I'm not a skeleton. This podcast has rejuvenated me. I now have a positive attitude in learning English. I'm listening from South Africa. Keep up the good work. I am really grateful.

Hello Luke. I wish you all the best for 2024.One of my Cambly's teachers told me "May I give you an advice " I replied " Yes , you may..! Listening to LEP you should improve you English level because his teaching is amazing and the better you are at listening, the better you are at having a conversation. So I know I'm going to spend a very interesting year with Luke's English podcast! Thanks a bunch!

I'm 14 and I have been learning English about 5 months, your podcasts help me in my English development! Thank you for your incredible podcasts, they're so funny)

Finally! I'm pretty sure I speak for everyone who listens to your podcast when I say I couldn't wait for the first episode of the year to come out. Cheers!🫶🏽🇨🇺🇬🇧🇫🇷

I loved this idea of putting the text on the side, so we can read and listen at the same time

Haha, so cute the little guy moving his head, being coordinative😂

The best English learning podcasts 👍👍👍

Hi, Luke! i'm from Russia. I'm extremely grateful for your podcasts! i suppose that improving my listening skills is my biggest achievement in last year and this all happened because of you and your great job that you've done! i feel like you are one of the best friends of mine!! i'm so glad that last year i found this lovely, cozy place with such a kind teacher! best wishes to you and your family!!

Hi Lukes, I'm a survivor of your podcasts 😁. I found it very funny when you commented on this in the middle of this podcast. Your podcasts help me a lot to improve my vocabulary and I really like the randle way you conduct the episodes.

I’m from Spain. I’ve study English since 2019 at Official Language School in my town to get b2 English certificate. In this course, I have a great English teacher because his pedagogical methods encourage us to improve our different skills; however, he is very demanding too. He puts a lot of effort into grammar and pronunciation. I recognise that it’s important to adopt positive mental attitudes, because studying English is a large journey, although it’s sometimes difficult. In spite of this, I’ve done some significant progress since I’ve started to study English, especially in my listening skills. When I started listening to podcast during the COVID Pandemic, it was difficult to understand the contents of episodes. Nowadays I can listen to them more easily than in the past. I know that one of my biggest difficulties is my speaking, but I understand that I need to improve my grammar, and my reading and writing skills. For this reason, I've to start new habits. Firstly, I usually listen several podcast just like you. My proposal is to write feed-back once a week. Secondly, to improve my speaking, my classmates and I are going to start an English meetup. I’ve also started to talk myself out loud. On the other side, my English teacher has recommended us to listen BBC's 6 Minute English. And after listening, I want to repeat out loud too Finally, to improve my reading skills I’m going to try to read English book 10 minutes a day. I really enjoy when you telling us stories of your daily routine, for instance I loved the episode on another podcast called “Into the story” when you told your experience about your “mission in Paris”. Thank you very much for your effort and work Best wishes from Spain.

Yes! It’s absolutely an advantage that I can see you while you are telling the story, also the text on the side to follow is very helpful.

When I listen to the Podcast I always do some housework

Hello hello Luke, I am Marah I am from. Middle East. I am a follower and a real fan. I wish one day I could speak English in your proficiency.

사랑합니다 ❤❤❤ Bless you heaps

If you are listening Luke's English podcast say yourself you are a special person😂 get yourself a cup of coffe you deserved it.

It hasn't been right without having Luke's new English podcast recently. Welcome back to us learners

Hello Luke! I'm Tani. First of all, I'm not a skeleton at all. I wholeheartedly appreciate you for this podcast. It's an incredible combination of utility and fun. And your sense of humor is a tresure. My listening skills weren't good at all when I'd started listening to your podcast. Mostly because I didn't like other shows for learners of Englis and shows for native speakers were too complicated for me. And after listening to hundreds of episodes I've finally moved to the next level. By the way, this improvement happened without any pain but with joy and pleasure. My next target is to build up my writing skills. So be ready for my comments after your videos on KZfaq. Thanks a lot, and best wishes to you and your family in 2024!

Hi everyone, I'm from Mexico and this is the first episode I heard from beginning to end. I promise to do it often 😇 (BTW Luke I'm not a skeleton)

Great and Kindful job, thanks, it was very useful for improving my English, I am from China.

I'm not a skeleton.... such a cutie baby you have... thanks for sharing all this information.

“I have been doing this podcast for about 15 years now. Not this episode. It might feel like it already. But… “ 😅🤣🤣 👏🏻

I am not a skeleton. You are great. Greetings from Argentina

Hi, I want to write comment at the first time.I always listen . I am from Azerbaijan.🙂

It's me again, Luke, c'est encore moi ... For learning French: Is there anything you like to do besides family and teaching? Reading graphic novels is a very good start. Do you have a hobby? If it's something like Flemish art, you could go on very specialised museum tours for a while with the little man on your chest. Practical subjects are great too, your cookery class (truffle risotto, yum) sounds like an excellent moment. What I did: Lots of listening (still doing that with you and with BBC4 and addicted to France Culture), but also writing down in a little booklet every day the words I picked up or looked up. I didn't always fill in the translation straight away and left blank lines in between. Sometimes we guess the meaning of a word and it seems almost banal. Write it down! Keep leafing through it, crossing it out, adding to it (hence the blank lines). The booklet or vocabulary notebook can go anywhere in the pocket, and the last additions are made in the evening before going to bed. These vocabulary 'carnets' were my game changer. And be indulgent with yourself as long as the little one is so small. (Pour ta gouverne, le mot indulgent est le même en français ...) Cordialement de Berlin, Caroline

Thank you very much, I always listen to your podcast on KZfaq, I love it

Reading English fiction is an EXCELLENT way of learning English and IMPROVING your FLUENCY. LISTENING AND REPEATING is also good for not forgetting your English and acquiring fluency. Listening to podcasts in English without looking at the text improves your LISTENING skills, while revising vocabulary. TALKING with somebody like LUKE is using the English you really know. How LOVELY it would be!!!! WRITING in English is magical!!! I love English as much as I love my mother tongue.❤ Oh.. and learning how to do something else with a native speaker of English, as Luke's done with cooking with a French chef is an EXCELLENT idea. Luke, you're reminding me of reading the news in English.I do love listening to British and American songs and watching tv shows in English.❤❤❤

Hello. I am not a Skeleton. It was a very cool class with a lot of vocabulary to learn

❤❤❤glad to see you, dear teacher !!!

I am in that intermediate plateau... The good thing, I see improvement on listenings without subtitles on ,,at least. But I still have lack of confindence in spoken English. I am a talkative person in my language. So I became a good listener with natives when I lived in London. My father was surprised about it! 😂 He told me many times to listen more and speak less. So I got his advice in the end...

That would be great if you call me 😂 let's try Luke ❤ Thanks for funny talk l enjoy it a lot. I'm listening while washing up. Your accent is understandable and pleasure. Go ahead you are a great teacher. I'd like to be as professional as you are❤

when I think to give up learning english, then I convince myself by saying you would have good life,you can fulfill YOUR wishes,you can communicate with people all over the world.Who are agree to this point?

Verga chamo you took me out of the shadows I am the ninja Pablo of the village of those who want to learn English, greetings from Venezuela, thanks for everything...

I am not a ninjaa Luke , I am here and hang on the lips of your podcasts, omg how cute your child isss🥹😍

Hello Luke, I'm not a skeleton, I'm from Spain and I usually see your videos while I'm cooking. I love them! You are the perfect teacher!

Hi Luke! I'm Claudia and this is the first time I listen to one of your podcasts and I want to thank you for the time you dedicate to this. I'm Sicilian and thanks to podcasts like yours, online group lessons, and reading, I'm significantly improving my English. This morning, while searching on Spotify for something to listen to, I found your podcast and while listening to it, I discovered that it's also on KZfaq! So I went to KZfaq and subscribed. You are very clear in your presentation and I find your arguments and advice very interesting. From now on, you have a new listener!! Thanks Claudia :)

Thanks for your podcasts! I listen almost every day!

What a nice podcast after those semi boring hours of studying, my motivation

I'm Spanish and this year my aim is to improve my English knowledge by listening one of your podcasts a day. I had a hip surgery 6 weeks ago and the doctor told me to walk for at least one hour a day and while I'm walking I'm also improving my listening skills. I study half an hour as well (at the present time I'm studying a book focused on expressions and another one related to direct translations). I hope to make a breakthrough in my English and leave behind the plateau. I'm a ninja but I'll try to write more often😅 Thank you for your podcasts, Luke. I'm living an idylic relationship with your language again thanks to you😊

Hi Luke,I am a new listener of your PODCAST and hope to continue to listen. I totally understand what you are telling, but reality is can’t express them so comfortably in front of other people. I do practice reading out loud,listening.as you told I will keep it up.thank you 😊

Thanks Luke, I am not a skeleton. 😊

Luke,. I'm grateful for your videos and podcasts. Those are my company in my way work and during workout. I'm improving my English. Thanks ❤

Hi Luke … I am in Thailand I follow you for a while. I just try to listen to your speaking and I speak along with you. I actually follow some English teachers on UTube and you are the one of my favorite teachers. I noticed that I sometimes understand what you speak (about 50%) but when you talk to your guess, it’s pretty much harder to understand. If you advise me by revert, it would be most appreciated. 😊 Thank you so much and support you🎉

Hi Luke!, it's lovely to see you with your baby boy, I melted!. I'm grateful for having found you because without knowing you have helped me during my plateau path. My positive experience is that I joined to a conversation club and I could speak in front of other spite of my fears, so thank you because you definetely are part of this. Another achivement is that I could finish the whole episode and I'm not a skeleton!

Hi Luke, I've been following you on you tube for about a year,.My name is Lula, I'm an English teacher from Rome, What I want to tell you is really, I think, very nice for you! You are a very good teacher, you know how to explain things in the best way, you linger because you try to explain things in the best way (I am like you), you can't synthesise because, I think, you believe there is always a better way to say things. I thank you especially because you put me in a good mood! You are nice, sensitive and funny at the same time and in the morning when I cycle to school in Rome I always listen to you because you put me in a good mood. I let myself be taken by everything you say and if I'm nervous, I take it all in! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! If I organise a long weekend in Paris I would love to come and see you perform. How often do you go on stage? You do yoga for me, I concentrate, enjoy myself and let go of my anxieties...

Hey! I'm your Spotify listener, but I'm just here to see the top of your son's head! Thanks for showing it to me. I'm going to be a grandmother to a boy's in this year and I really enjoyed seeing you and your son working together!!!togheter!!!

Hi Luke, I'm not an skeleton! It's my first time here and now you have a new subscriptor.

Hi Luke, happy new year for you and your family. I am Alessandra from Brazil. I am a ninja and didn’t become a skeleton after listening this podcast, which was amazing. On the contrary, it motivated me to write to you for the first time since I’ve started to listen to you in 2018 or 2019. After discovering you I listened to many of the old episodes, but, unfortunately, I haven’t listened all of them, yet. Nowadays, I am following you on the KZfaq, although, I usually just listen and not watch. This one was an exception. I really enjoy hearing your stories even the rambling episodes, which seems to connect more you and your audience. I loved the episode about the birth of your son and many others, such as that about the new Beatles’ song. Your tips are great and this year I want to use, at least, some of them. I am trying to overcome the intermediate plateau and your efforts to learn French are a source of inspiration for me. Your pronunciation is great and I dare say that I can understand around 90% of what you say. I want to improve my write and pronunciation skills, so I need to practice more. Now, I am going to apply for the Celta course in my country, because I want to become an English teacher here. Many of your episodes about learning process with different guests inspired me and also the episodes that explain this kind of stuff. Anyway, thank you for this lovely podcast and for being a human being so cool. Sometimes, I felt as if you were a close and funny friend of mine. Once again, I wish you a great year full of health, peace, love and prosperity. By the way, the top of your son’s head is beautiful. 😊

Hello, Im 21 and Argentinian, I will try to listen all your content that you will upload. I hope improve slowly my listening.

Hi Luke, I am listening to your podcast from Nepal .It is really fruitful to the people who want to improve English .Really appreciated

Hi Luke, I've been listening to you since 2019 (through podcast), btw I really loved your old App. Yes😅, you did mention a couple of times that you had lived in Japan😄. I love your rambling episodes, particularly very long episodes! I also like small talk at the beginning of them and your lovely songs at the end of some of them. Thanks for your work! One of your ninja-LEPsters

Thank you, Luke, for that really inspiring programme and congrats on your baby son. He really got to the end of your programme as well 😅😂 💗❤️

Can you tell some humorous stories, I guessed all of your audience here love to laugh 😀😀 - I love to join your podcast , it’s super interesting and no advertising interruption . Thank you.

Hi! I am from Brazil. I appreciate the podcast. I'm an English student

Hello Hello Luke 😂 I am Mohamed from Sudan, I've been listening to your podcast for about 4 years now and yet I wasn't that much engaged with your episodes I mean I just like listening I don't write comments and stuffs ( I think I'm categorized as a Ninja Right 😂😂), so I would like to mention how your podcast really helped improving my English specially the phrasal verb section I learned a lot of them and that really helped when I took the IELTS exam 2 years ago I used a variety of phrasal verbs in the speaking test and thankfully I got 8.5 (I'm still shocked too😂🎉) anyways thank you so much for making this podcast and being so funny and witty 😂

hello i am ninja here . Actually i am your subcriber for 3 years . Happy New Year .

I'm from sri lanka ,joined reacently ,much more helpfull to improve my english

How funny ! Thanks for sharing your great sense of humour ! (English humour for sure ;-) !! An innovative idea to combine English learning with have fun ! Love it !

The first podcast I listened from begining to the end! It was such a long time, so it's great achievement for me. Thank you Luke, and happy new year!

I am new who joined you last year in December- I discovered you very first time.

I'm from Iran and have been working in Iraq for a while.I have limitation internet to connect KZfaq but when I come to Iraq for work, I will come to you. I like your teaching. Unlimited thank you

I believe confidence is the key. I barely know a few words in Spanish, but if I had to ask something like “Am I supposed to be sitting here?”, I would simply say “Me here, this ok?” (Estoy Aqui, Esto bien?) I’ve probably misspelled it in 5 places too. I have zero concerns about how it is not perfect, because I naturally assume that people are kind and would understand that I’m a foreigner.

Hi Luke! I am miren feom the basque country. Happy all year.

Thank you, dear Luke.

Im very happy to find you, Luke!!! Im from Argentina. 😊

Thank's, Luke, I'm not a skeleton)) Hi from Siberia)
