Steve Jobs' 2005 Stanford Commencement Address


FOR ADVANCED LEARNERS OF ENGLISH
Listen to Steve Jobs' 2005 Stanford Commencement Address (Standard American Accent) at least twice. Take notes and summarize the key points of his speech.
Then listen to the same speech with English subtitles and check your general vs detailed understanding. Detect spelling differences between British English and American English.
What do you think of this speech? How would you describe it? Incredibly moving? Too long? Too short? Too personal?
Make sure you have at least one hour to do this exercise. This will help you improve your listening and speaking skills. Ready to start?
