Duration: 00:44:12
Shownotes: Curiosity is an important thing to practice to be better English language learners and enjoy your life more. When we start learning a language, we’re

naturally very open and curious to learning new things. It can be an amazing feeling when you’re really into something and you’re looking up every little detail.However, along the way, we naturally get more complacent and we begin to take things for granted. This curiosity fades into daily habits and routines. Curiosity makes language learning so much more enjoyable more also helps you progress faster.
