Hello and welcome to Chatterbox, the Q-Lips series for intermediate to advanced English learners that is designed to help you improve your fluency and reach the next level with your English. My name is Andrew. I will be your host for today and joining me for this episode is a very special guest, Jesus Flores. Jesus is making his second appearance on Q-Lips. He was on the show back in 2024, but he's back for round two. And in our conversation that you'll hear in just a moment, we talked all about how he built his fluency from the intermediate level to a very, very, very high level of English.
I think Jesus is amazing. I really enjoyed our conversation that we had. He is very natural with his English in many different aspects of it, in his pronunciation, in his grammar, in his vocabulary use, in his idiom use, his phrasal verb use. Across all of the aspects of English, Jesus has reached a super, super high level. And I was thinking in my head as I was talking with him, that it's almost like he's like the Michael Jordan or the Wayne Gretzky of English learning.
That was the opening. The rest of the episode (52 min) is in the player: every word clickable, with translation, saved words and flashcards.
