Welcome to this episode of Aussie English. Today, I have another interview episode for you, and it’s an interview episode with a fellow Melbournian, a fellow Australian, called Adriana. Adriana grew up here in Melbourne in Australia. She’ll talk a bit more about that, but she’s moved to Europe since, and she’s living in Croatia. She’s also an English teacher, and she runs the websites EnglishTeacherAdriana.com and UsingEnglishTP.com. So today, we chat about her experiences of growing up in Australia and then moving to Europe, moving to Croatia. We also chat about her learning the language Croatian as a second language and what that was like. And then, we also get into English teaching with a specific emphasis on how to build confidence when speaking English. So, how to speak confidently as someone who’s learning English as a second language. Anyway, guys without any further ado let’s get into today’s episode and hear from Adriana. Let’s go.

Man, I wanted to get you on the podcast, I guess, to just tell me about where you’re from, where you’re living, tell me about what you’re doing, and just, yeah, have at it. Adriana: Of all my name’s Adriana. I’m assuming that you and everybody else knows that. So, I ran the website EnglishTeachAdriana.com. There I make resources for ESL learners, mainly intermediate to advanced learners, helping them with common topics, which many ESL learners have problems with. There you can find lessons on grammar, phrasal verbs, vocabulary, tips, confidence is also a big part of my focus, and fluency. I’m very active on Instagram, (I) love stories. And, I am new to podcasts and very interested to hear from you, and from your viewers, a little bit more about the Aussie podcast. Pete: Brilliant, brilliant. So, can you tell me a bit then about where you grew up and where you’re liv...
