Abstract:
Connect with English is a new way for speakers of other languages to learn English. Through the story of Rebecca, an aspiring singer on a journey across America, the series touches on life's important issues: leaving home, parenting, education, work, love, success, and loss. Each episode features dialogue that is slightly slowed down and subtly simplified while still being natural language.
