Does this sound familiar?

"I can read English fine, but listening feels impossible."

"Native speakers talk too fast — I only catch a few words."

"I hear sounds, but my brain can't turn them into meaning."

"I know I should understand this… but I just don't."

The problem isn't your vocabulary. It's how you were taught to listen.

What this drill fixes

Native speakers don't pronounce words the way your textbook taught you. They connect words, drop sounds, and blend everything together.

Your brain keeps searching for words that don't exist in real speech. That's why you feel lost.

This drill trains your ear to recognize how English actually sounds — not how it's written.

After this drill, you'll hear:

The patterns that used to sound like noise → clear, recognizable chunks.
