#297 Don't Fall for the Comparison Trap

The Level Up English Podcast

The Comparison Trap is when we get stuck comparing our lives to other people and feeling worse as a result.
It's a common problem in language learning, and this is something that I often experience too since I was inspired to make this episode after a moment of comparison made me feel worse.
We often compare ourselves to others in many ways, such as income, appearance, skills, and on social media.
In this episode, I cover all of these topics while sharing some useful comparative grammar structures to improve your spoken English.
