Espresso English Podcast · Jun 14, 2017 · 6m

Today's lesson is inspired by a student question – he asked what the expression "we're spinning our wheels" means. Take the lesson to find out!

You'll learn 10 interesting expressions for progress, including:

run into a brick wall

shift into high gear

at breakneck pace

...and more.

You can learn a lot more of these casual and colorful expressions in spoken English in my courses.

I especially recommend:

Everyday English Speaking Course Level 2 (helps you learn expressions from conversations)

or my English Idioms Course (in which you will figure out idioms through quizzes).
