10 Minutes of Improving English Reading Skills | Slow English for Shadowing | Learn English Podcast

Does reading in English feel slow and frustrating? You’re not alone. Many learners struggle with long books, confusing articles, or stopping every few words to check the dictionary. In this episode of Podcast and Chill, Gwen and Leo share why reading feels so hard (even when you “know all the words”), the difference between passive reading and active reading, a simple 3‑step method: Skim, Focus, Summarize, how just 10 minutes a day can build speed, confidence, and understanding, and fun ideas for reading materials—comics, reviews, short stories, even TikTok captions. No pressure, no boredom. Just 10 minutes of smart practice that really works.
