For  most of us, the recent pandemic is over, only now are we seeing the  tremendous impact on our society. Especially for the survivors and those  who lost loved ones, and those still suffering from the effects of  surviving infection. An English lesson that is worth listening to!

Today’s English listening topic contains a lot of interesting English language, vocabulary and phrases.  The lesson also picks up on a topic I think we will all hear more about  in the coming months. Especially as the rules about talking about the  pandemic on social media relax. We are all about to learn that the  impact of the pandemic is much more than we could ever imagine.
