Transcript:

Hi everyone!

I’m Georgiana; founder of SpeakEnglishPodcast.com. My mission is to help YOU speak English fluently.

In today’s episode:

  • I’ll talk about how Americans celebrate Christmas and how I used to enjoy Christmastime when I was a kid.
  • Later, you’ll practice vocabulary, and above all, you’ll improve your spoken English with a funny question and answer story.

Awesome! Let’s get started!

Multi-Cultural Christmas

In the United States, every 25th of December, people celebrate Christmas in many unique ways because of its multicultural nature.

The modern, commercialized Christmas began to emerge in the 19th century with the new custom of buying gifts for children.

Many of the Christmas holiday activities differ from family to family. It often depends on the cultural heritage of the family members.

Some customs are like the ones in the UK, France, Italy, Poland, and Mexico.

A typical celebration of Christmas Day in America combines Irish, Austrian, Polish, and Belgian traditions.

Despite the variety of cultures, most Americans agree that Christmas is a family time. For many families, Christmas is the one time of year when all family members, come together to eat, drink and spend a great time together.

With Georgiana’s method  I have started speaking English from minute one and this is exactly what I needed. With the traditional method you will practice grammar, grammar and grammar, but with Georgiana’s method you will practice listening and speaking and in my opinion this is the most important thing when you are learning a new language.
