3 Steps to English Success! 

Although I have talked about this quite frequently in my private lessons, I have not mentioned it on the podcast. The 3 steps are to help students organize their activities so that they are maximizing the limited time they have for English learning.

3 Steps to English Success:
1. Study
2. Practice
3. Perform

Action Steps:
1. Choose one activity from the “Study” step (Listening or Reading)
2. Choose one activity from the “Practice” step (Writing or Speaking)
3. Schedule these activities everyday, perhaps alternating them

A couple of weeks ago, a document from the Supreme Court was leaked to the media. This document was an opinion from Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito indicating that the Court was aiming to overturn the landmark case of Roe vs. Wade. This case, nearly 50 years old, created the Constitutional right for women to legally have abortions nationwide.

With this leak, the abortion issue, pro-choice vs. pro-life, has once again sparked national debate. Some believe that this could lead to further civil unrest and perhaps a complete fracturing of the United States as we know it. This is an issue you must learn about as it will likely lead the headlines for the next several months.

Here are the key vocabulary:
 
abortion
pro-choice
pro-life
liberal
conservative
on the left
on the right
women's rights
"My body, my choice"
Roe vs. Wade
Supreme Court
judge/justice
Planned Parenthood vs. Casey
to strike down
full-throated
unflinching
repudiation
egregiously
to be overruled
unconstitutional 

Article used in this episode:

Politico:
Supreme Court has voted to overturn abortion rights, draft opinion shows

Justice Alito's draft opinion
