EN LA ESCUELA HACEMOS MUCHAS ACTIVIDADES. UNAS NOS GUSTAN MÁS
QUE OTRAS. LAS QUE PEOR HACEMOS SON LAS QUE MENOS NOS GUSTAN.
EN ESTA LECTURA VERÁS LO QUE LE SUCEDIÓ A SOFÍA CON LA GIMNASIA.

Antes de comenzar la lectura

1. ¿Qué actividad de las que haces en la semana es la que más te gusta?

2. ¿Cuál es la que menos te gusta?

3. Adivina qué le ocurrió a Sofía con la gimnasia.

Presta atención a la lectura de tu profesor

A Sofía no se le da muy bien la gimnasia.

-LOS juegos de pelota son los que menos le gustan.

Casi todos los niños de la clase son más altos y más
 fuertes que ella. Y siempre lleva las de perder.

Cada vez que toca el balón, le gritan:

—Eres un desastre, Sofía.

Lo de ser un desastre a Sofía no le gusta nada.

Así que trama algo.

Antes de la clase de gimnasia se acerca a la señora Ana, que
es la profesora, le enseña la pierna, más bien flaca, y le dice:

-No puedo jugar. Me duele aquí.

-¿Te duele mucho? —le pregunta la señora Ana.

Sofía dice que si con la cabeza, la mar de convencida.

—Entonces será mejor que te quedes en el banquillo.

Sofía está encantada de lo bien que le ha salido.

Y desde entonces, a la hora de gimnasia, suele dolerle la pierna.

Pero la señora Ana no se lo ha creído del todo.

Mental blockers in job interviews, IELTS speaking or communication as a whole.

Have you heard of such a thing as a mental blocker? Or psychological filtering?

Most techers never talk about this because they care too much on helping you with the language (grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing). There is nothing wrong with it but why 60-90% of language learners aren't satisfied about their spoken language performance?

Mental blockers or filtering is when we focus too much on the bad things and ignore the good things. 

This can make us only see the negative parts of a situation and not notice the positives. It's like when you only pay attention to one mean comment and ignore all the nice ones. 

This can make us feel bad about ourselves and not appreciate the good things around us.

Have you found yourself in it? We all do it, I do too in various aspects and my student Savi inspired me to help you become aware of it and deal with it and succeed as the result.

Take your time listening to it as it is the first time in your life you came across this topic and again - it's not what English teachers talk about so please meditate on my thoughts, let yourself grow and come to my vip 1-1 training to ask questions and be helped.

You can do it!

The Habits of Women Growing Into Strong, Confident English Communicators

Mental blockers in job interviews, IELTS speaking or communication as a whole

In a perfect world, interviewers would give you feedback on the spot and contact you after your interview with their decision and advice. Unfortunately, this is not likely to happen, so it’s up to you to ask for feedback. In this episode, you’ll learn how to ask for feedback in an interview tactfully and effectively. 

People often don't ask for feedback in an interview for many reasons. Perhaps they don't know they can ask for it. Maybe they assume they won't get an honest answer. Or, a candidate might fear it is inappropriate to ask for feedback in an interview. 

Asking for feedback in an interview is not only appropriate, but it is also an excellent growth opportunity and presents a chance to clarify misunderstandings and land a job. 

While we all know that the best talkers do not always make the best employees, organizational psychologist Adam Grant points out, “Job interviews favor candidates who are the best talkers.” So, in this episode, you'll get a list of 11 common communication mistakes in an interview that you can share with your mock interviewer. You'll also get four suggestions on how you can ask for feedback in an interview.

The episode concludes with a list of definitions for idioms and phrases for those who want to build their English vocabulary.
