Florida Man: Tuba Player gets BANNED from Beach (Intermediate)

Thomas Bachman

In this episode of Florida Man Friday, we hear about a young man who can't do what he loves: Playing the Tuba (on the beach at least). 



First, I read through the article in its entirety. Then, I go back and break down each sentence, explaining any interesting grammar and vocabulary. Then, I read the article once more. Hopefully you will have an easier time understanding the new vocabulary the second time through. FINALLY, I play the actual News Segment that this article comes from and you get to test yourself against a variety of voices and at a slightly faster speed than what I speak at. 

Enjoy and subscribe for more!
