Although I'm 60 and retired , I'm studying to become an English teacher. I must congratulate you for being such a good teaching model for us. Your performance is excellent! Thanks a lot.
You made me be in suspense...waiting for more,. Little sad for me because memories came to my heart when my dad died and my .other, with eight children, completed her commitment. You are a good teAcher...story teller
Sir, your comment encouraged me to complete my way for improving my language, Although I'm still 33 years old, I was thinking that I'm so older to start a new life with more curiosity . But now I'm so excited for doing all my best. Thanks for u I wish you all the best and good health 😊
Hi everyone! Thanks for the comments. I’ll be doing more stories on the podcast in the future. 📖📚📙 The story was written by @Aknier on Commaful.com commaful.com/play/aknier/the-mountain/ P.s. if you think the character is a man, you weren’t paying attention! I’m pretty sure it’s a female character. She mentions wearing a skirt (of course men can wear them, but usually it’s women), getting catcalled (almost always women), I think someone mentions her partner as “dad” so the chances are that the character is female, and her nickname “montanita” is Spanish for “little mountain”, and is a feminine word. There are also other possibilities of course 🌈 and anyway - it doesn’t really matter. I think anyone can relate to the character in the story.
Dear Luke, You have a very nice and calming voice. The pace is also excellent. Not too fast and not too slow. Could you please think about doing more stories to help people sleep in these pandemic times? It could help people to calm down, learn English and sleep! I got addicted to doing this. Next day, I usually listen again to the stories and finish them because I slept in the midle of an audio. There are many sites with stories about mistery and crime. These are not good to sleep, but I listen to whatever I can. Romantic and comic stories would be much better. Please think about it! Many thanks.
hi, i'm new here. this contrast you did with the UK and US English was pretty cool, i'm looking forward to more of them. Greets from Brazil, really loved your work! keep it up ! :)
I love the stories you choose. This story made me cry when I heard her husband died and she first time lost control and punched her brother in her husband’s funeral. I feel so sad for her.😢
B.B.Wang Perhaps I am the oldest student you have ever taught. I am an Australian-Chinese 90 years old. I have kept learning English to enrich/ improve the living quality of my” late” years. Your teaching course helps very much. I especially appreciate the way you teach. I can follow you almost the whole process. And the UK pronunciation. Thank you!. (Please have tolerance for my poor grammar.)
I also wrote a short story or joke: One late night in December 2022. In China, Shanghai. A young man shouted at the empty street: "Because of you alone, the world will not be peaceful!" Two policemen ran out and subdued him, asking: 'Who are you talking about?' The young man immediately replied: “Zelensky.” The police released him. The young man stand up and took a few steps to leave, thinking that something was wrong, turned back and asked the police: 'Who do you think I'm talking about?' The two police officers looked at each other awkwardly.
Congratulations, you seem a very motivated person. I'm a 68 years old belgian woman and hope I'll be like you when I'm 90 🤗. I also enjoy listening and looking Luke teacher. Go ahead and take care of yourself.
@@marie-annehenkinbrant1904 respected Ma'am, I would to come and serve you as I am also a reader and couldn't survive because here is no peace in our country I would like to serve you and spend my rest of life as I couldn't support to go out from this country. I hope I will get back a positive response
My dearest Luke! YOU made me cry by that awfully deep story "The Mountain"! I am rather old, have so much experience but couldn't help crying while listening to you. You are a brilliant teacher and a very kind man as well.. Thank you so much for teaching us how to behave,how to stay human beings, how to preserve tenderness in our hearts. Sincerely yours, from Moscow
I agree, indeed, you did a very good choice in using this story for your online audience. It fills one's heart with so much emotion while listening and points out as side-effect learning easily a foreign language. J. Dobbertin from Berlin, Germany
A good narrator, the teacher himself is not only an alloring speaker, he is also patience, funny, and he makes learning easy for his students. Thanks so much, dear. ....Paula.
I’m 65 years old. I’m mexican but I’ve been living in Houston about 5 years ago, I thougth was going to learn English easily but no! It was been too difficult for me. Then I’ve loved your video. I really liked your video! Thank you so much.
Hello Luke, I' m from Argentina. I am an English teacher, in my 60th, and this is my first listening to your stories. Although I am widow, I have spent a great moment in spite of some tears.... Thank you so much!!
What makes your English lessons outstandingly effective is bringing emotions into them. Undoubtedly, we learn a lot more effectively when we dive into the story with emotions. Such an eye-watering story and great presentation. Thank you so much.
As an English learner , I always have problems with my listening, now I feel I’ve found an amazing way to improve my English skills. Thanks Luke . I love your voice and your reading story.
Three years on and I’m enjoying listening to this story even more than before. Thank you so much, dear teacher Luke. The story is a really moving one and beautifully read, too. Thanks again and have a lovely weekend! 😘😘😘♥️♥️♥️🦋🍀🦋🍀🦋🍀🏔⛰🌋🗻
How could it be possible? I was relaxing for an hour. It was like watching a movie. I hardly ever can catch words in a film, but your story is clear for me. You have an intangible manner to make things clear and the skill to make a lesson awesome. Thanks!
I learned so many new words by listening to you in this episode, thank you for making time to teach the vocabulary in the second half. The story is really emotional. I'm impressed with the narrator's personality especially when she was still so young, she always tried to put others first before herself and had the desire to be a cooperative girl. There were problems that she had to face but bothering others was never in her head.
I was crying so much at the beginning of the mountain, it touch me so deeply. It seem like the story speaking about my early childhood. It is really deep and truthful story. Thank you very much.
When I finished listening this story. I feel so sad. I don't know why exactly. In her side she is so much concerned about other people. Thank you for reading this story with your gorgeous &clear voice.
As an author of short stories and novels , I thoroughly enjoyed the story. The story is either a true confession or written out of emotional empathy. Your narrative is awesome.
The attractive places of this UA-camr are not only his British accent, but also his quality of voice and pace! It looks as if I listen an audio book. What an amazing podcast !! I begin to be hooked by his.
Hi Luke. Thank for sharing & reading the stories, especially this story. This one touched my heart, i can feel/see her through her calm voice. I also would love to say thank to the writer, she is such a beautiful and powerful soul.
I am a chinese and 40 years old and in my 40 years life I never immersed in English study for so long time. Your excellent video let me can't help to watch it, thank you very much. You let me have a feeling to met an old friend.
I only found your videos quite recently. As I'm an interpreter, I would not really need English lessons. Even so, it's such a delight to hear you reading great short stories that I've taken to listen to as many episodes as I can. Thank you so much!
What a touching story that made me crying. A calm, tender gentleman who loves his true love and family deeply comes from your story into my heart. Thank you.
You are the best Luke. I am an English teacher of 45 years' experience and I find your videos a great teaching resource and also enjoy listening to them to relax.
Hi Luke, after you read the story, you said it could be a woman or a man. It is clear that the narrator is a woman, as she gave her skirt to her little sister, and got catcalls when she's a young woman. Love the Liam Neeson's "Taken" references too. Thank you for the story -- I think we all know someone like this narrator, or is one. It's especially touching when at the end you realize that she is talking to her dead husband, and maybe even trying to tell him that he doesn't have to worry about her and her children, as she has changed and will protect them now that he's gone.
I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the amazing work you do on your UA-cam channel. Your teaching style is engaging, informative, and truly inspiring. I have learned so much from your lessons, and I feel much more confident in my English abilities as a result. Keep it up the good work 🌹
I listened to this story twice already and every time I cried !!! I am like the wife in the story and my husband is always the one who stand up for me. I can not imagine someday he will die earlier than me........ I will go give him a hug now .......
Thanks a million, teacher Luke for sharing this wonderful story which became more wonderful with your outstanding performance and unique style of teaching! I wish you all the best in your life! May Allah (Almighty God) bless you, guide you, and help you be extremely happy!
I really love the episodes in which you read us a short story and then analyze the language bit by bit. I find it easier to learn new items of vocabulary. Thank you so much! 🌻
Strange, how such a short story can grab my attention for the whole time you were reading it. I have always thought that reading aloud could help in so many ways. I am so grateful that I came across your site. Thank you.
I’ve always been a ninja but today I decided to leave my very first comment. Thank you Luke! Your podcasts and videos along with premium stuff helped me so much, you can’t even imagine. Recently I’ve landed a job at an international company. You don’t know me personally but you are a person who have changed my life. Thank you again, good health to you and your family.
Thank God I found your channel. I like your voice, your accent, the touching interpretation. Congratulations! I am a Brazilian English teacher and your material will help me a lot até school. Thanks a lot!
it touchs me when I hear skipping lunch saving for the textbook. Touch more when he yelled and gave his money to Mountain for buying food...Thanks for doing this podcast. God bless you.
While randomly selected you as a medium of learning English, firstly focused on your accent, pronunciation and a mountain like concentration to understand you and finally developed an artistic story.Thanks for this short journey.
What you do is simply marvelous. I enjoy all your presentations and admire your approach and sense of humor. There is no better way to improve language skills. Thanks a lot 😊
Hi Luke, your podcast is intersting and unique that there is no background music to distract your voice. Your speaking is clear to hear. It is a good way to learn English language and general knowledge. I'm using your podcast to help a relative to re-gain the memory and to learn again.
When I was student in Oz ( I am Korean ) My English teacher was so passionate He was so kind to all students I think You are so passionate to teach English skills … thank you so much your contribution. 😮
The way you tell the story is unbelievable. even, I can feel the emotion conveyed in the story. I am imagining the loss of her husband that changed her life :(
Gorgeous performance. IT IS really essential to listen to such podcasts while learning English.I fall in love with your typical English accent. I am very much obliged to you.
This is fantastic! I learnt so many new vocabulary and phrases from this episode, and I think you did a great job on storytelling. Please do more stuff like this. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this story and your great interpretation! From the very first moment I thought it was a man the writer. So interesting how a person can be so calm when everything around him falls apart. Sad and lovely.
As a teacher of English, I often asked my students to read short stories and perform them in the classroom, after working in small group and writing their script. It was a very useful activity.My students appreciated it very much indeed. Best wishes
I keep coming back to this video sometimes for relaxing because of the story itself, and your wonderful explanation. Many thanks, Luke. Please do more like this whenever you either have time or run out of idea for a new episode
Luke, just feel like listening to you forever, when you narrate the stories and explain them. The stories you pick are also too interesting. Thanks for this podcast. It's really helping me and I am sure it's helping may others who are following you.
It is so heart breaking and emotional. It felt like the poem is talking about me….I am in tears all the way through your reading. At least She has had a HE who was so warm , caring and supportive , not like me. Love your teaching , explanation. Thanks a lot, Luke! Will stick to your lessons.
The story "The Mountain" is quite emotional. I suppose I've even felt how the tone of your voice changed a bit in the end of the story (at the twist of the plot).
@Ig,nazio Castelli Who? Me? How do you know how good my pronunciation is if you haven't listened to me? :) It's not me who read the story but Mr Thompson. :)
@Ig,nazio Castelli it's okay. Anyway, I've recently found a website for practicing speaking English. I think that will help you improve your listening and speaking skills speak-peak.club
What an incredible experience I have watching your videos. Love your british accent and the way you explain the meaning of some words. By the way, "mi amor" is Spanish and means "my love" which is a way to call our partners when there is love involved. Hope to see you soon and thank you!!
A wonderful, emotional, sad as well as interesting story. I felt so sad at last. You made it so simple, understandable for everyone of your listener. Your voice, expression, and story telling mentality is extraordinary. Loved it man!. I'm following you & watching your videos for last 5 years. This is one of your best lectures. Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Thank you for your selected short stories.You are a great story teller .By your gestures and expressions ,you dramatize the stories and that makes it all the more interesting and captivating .Thank you once again .l love listening to stories .

Such an amazing way of explaining and teaching. I learned a lot and had fun. I will let my younger sister watch this as well. We all need to study more. Great channel! Thanks :)
It’s an amazing story, touched by the lady personality as well, she’s so calm , peace and strong, when the boys friend told her he was cheating on her, but she just stay calm and ignored it, she deserved love and marriage ....thanks for your narration, love your voice, will keep watching your video 😘
Thank you very much for such a thoughtful story.It's not only the best way to improve English, the author teaches listeners to be strong meaningful persons.

Dear Luke,
You have a very nice and calming voice.
The pace is also excellent. Not too fast and not too slow.
Could you please think about doing more stories to help people sleep in these pandemic times?
It could help people to calm down, learn English and sleep!
I got addicted to doing this.
Next day, I usually listen again to the stories and finish them because I slept in the midle of an audio.
There are many sites with stories about mistery and crime.
These are not good to sleep, but I listen to whatever I can.

This is my favorite video on UA-cam because it always calms me down and makes me think about life. Luke's ability to tell stories is a gift.
Yes, I think like you....PS: Luke explained "catcalled"....full of heart!

Gorgeous performance. IT IS really essential to listen to such podcasts while learning English.I fall in love with your typical English accent. I am very much obliged to you.
This is fantastic! I learnt so many new vocabulary and phrases from this episode, and I think you did a great job on storytelling. Please do more stuff like this. Thank you.
Thank you❤❤❤
I don’t remember how many times I have listened to this episode. I love the story!
Thank you so much for this story and your great interpretation!
From the very first moment I thought it was a man the writer. So interesting how a person can be so calm when everything around him falls apart. Sad and lovely.
I do like when you read stories for us. Thank you a lot! It is so helpful for English learners. Great job!
As a teacher of English, I often asked my students to read short stories and perform them in the classroom, after working in small group and writing their script. It was a very useful activity.My students appreciated it very much indeed. Best wishes
I keep coming back to this video sometimes for relaxing because of the story itself, and your wonderful explanation. Many thanks, Luke. Please do more like this whenever you either have time or run out of idea for a new episode
Luke, just feel like listening to you forever, when you narrate the stories and explain them. The stories you pick are also too interesting. Thanks for this podcast. It's really helping me and I am sure it's helping may others who are following you.
It is so heart breaking and emotional. It felt like the poem is talking about me….I am in tears all the way through your reading. At least She has had a HE who was so warm , caring and supportive , not like me. Love your teaching , explanation. Thanks a lot, Luke! Will stick to your lessons.
Please do it more, these stories are so useful, thanks for your great efforts!!!
The story "The Mountain" is quite emotional. I suppose I've even felt how the tone of your voice changed a bit in the end of the story (at the twist of the plot).
@Ig,nazio Castelli Who? Me? How do you know how good my pronunciation is if you haven't listened to me? :)
It's not me who read the story but Mr Thompson. :)
@Ig,nazio Castelli it's okay. Anyway, I've recently found a website for practicing speaking English. I think that will help you improve your listening and speaking skills speak-peak.club

You got emotional a bit , didn’t you, Luke? It was an emotional and amazing story. Thank you for sharing it with us. 👍👍👍
Thank you for the detailed explanation of each word, expression, sentence, and differences between US and British english
I was moved by this story as well as learned the most important part of married life. Thank you.
Looking forward to hearing more stories like this.❤️
I love listening to your channel, especially your clear British accent.
Keep up the good work, LUKE 😊
What an incredible experience I have watching your videos. Love your british accent and the way you explain the meaning of some words. By the way, "mi amor" is Spanish and means "my love" which is a way to call our partners when there is love involved. Hope to see you soon and thank you!!
A wonderful, emotional, sad as well as interesting story.
I felt so sad at last.
You made it so simple, understandable for everyone of your listener.
Your voice, expression, and story telling mentality is extraordinary. Loved it man!. I'm following you & watching your videos for last 5 years. This is one of your best lectures.
