Hi Italki! Here’s today’s photo…what can you find beginning with C?

These days, I help my kids with learning English and maths. I really enjoy learning with them very. I can see they are improving every excercise. They also support me do the housework and do the cooking sometimes. I can be lazy sometimes.

Welcome to the More than English Podcast and welcome to a new series! I'm your host Stephen. Today we will introduce the concepts of culture and cultural dimensions before exploring cultural dimensions further in future episodes. For example, we will examine Deal & Kennedy's (2000) definition of culture: "Culture is the way we do things around here" before talking about some of the many benefits of studying cultural dimensions more specifically.

As an adult, we always feel lonely which is very different from what we felt as a child. In an adult's daily life, working, taking care of children, making money are the whole. In nowadays' society, all kinds of resources are limited which need us to do our best to get them, but only few of us get promoted and earn more money. Competition or peer pressure exists everywhere. Your education and your ablity on your job are not always that important. Sometimes, it seems like that the skill of keeping a good relationship with your boss and colleagues is the key to be successful. We called this EQ (emotional quotient). Even if you have a a high IQ, you'd better intentionally hide it without being envied by others. Don't make anyone to be your enmies. In someone's mind, Getting benefit looks like the only standard to think about others. It reminds me of the relationship between each other many years ago. We use the word "steely" to describe it which means nothing could broke it. Now, we use the word "plastic" to describe the current interpersonal relationship which means it can be broken easily.
