It is a short story by Ivan Turgenev, a Russian novelist and story writer. The story of Gerasim, a deaf and mute serf whose life of poverty is brought into sharp relief by his connection with Mumu, a dog he rescued, brought greater national attention to the cruelties of serfdom and received praise for its brutal portrayal of this institution in Russian society.

Forget bullet points and dry statistics. Capturing attention and sparking action requires a different approach: storytelling.  Effective communication transforms you from an information provider into a captivating storyteller, weaving a narrative that resonates with your audience.

Why Stories?

Humans are wired for stories. They tap into emotions, create a sense of connection, and make information more memorable.  A well-crafted story in a business presentation can:

Illustrate complex concepts: Imagine explaining a new marketing strategy. By weaving a story about a customer's journey, you make the strategy relatable and engaging.
Highlight challenges and solutions: Business is full of obstacles. Share a story about overcoming a past hurdle, showcasing your problem-solving expertise.
Inspire and motivate: The most powerful stories evoke emotions and ignite action. Use a story of a customer's success to inspire others to do the same.

Identify the Hero: Every story needs a hero. In a business context, the hero could be your customer, your team, or even your company itself.
Define the Obstacle: What challenges does the hero face? This could be a market disruption, a competitor's strategy, or an internal obstacle to overcome.
Showcase the Journey: How does the hero overcome the obstacles? This is where you highlight your product, service, or strategy in action.
Deliver a Satisfying Resolution: What is the positive outcome of the story? Did the hero achieve their goal? Leave your audience with a sense of accomplishment and hope.
Storytelling in Action:

Imagine pitching your innovative new software to potential investors. Instead of a dry presentation full of technical jargon, weave a story about a struggling small business frustrated with outdated software.  Highlight how your product transformed their operations, leading to increased efficiency and growth.  This narrative approach connects on an emotional level, making your pitch more memorable and impactful.

はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの20回目です。寒い日が続いていますが、近所の公園では桜が満開です。桜が咲くと、公園に人が増えます。桜は綺麗ですが、咲いている期間がとても短いです。桜の花は、１年の間に２週間ぐらいしか見ることができません。咲き始めてから１週間経つと、だんだん花が散っていきます。寒い日や、天気の悪い日が続くと、もっと早く散ってしまうこともあります。せめて１ヶ月ぐらい咲いていてほしいですね。

Hi, this is the podcast episode 20. It's been cold, but the cherry blossoms are in full bloom in my neighbourhood park. When the cherry blossoms bloom, more people come to the park. Cherry blossoms are beautiful, but they are in bloom for a very short time. The flowers can only be seen for about two weeks during the year. After a week of blooming, the flowers gradually fall off. If the weather is cold or bad, they may fall even faster. I would like to see them in bloom for at least a month.

春になると、スーパーにいろいろな果物が置かれます。この時期に一番目立つ場所にあるのは、いちごです。最近、白いいちごもよく見かけます。「見かける」とは、見るつもりがなくても、見ることです。白いいちごは、品種改良によって作られています。「品種改良」とは、人間が植物や動物の新しい種類を作ることです。いちごは、アントシアニンという成分によって赤くなります。白いいちごは、品種改良でアントシアニンが消されています。日本では、色の他にも、サイズを大きくしたり、味を甘くしたりするために、果物の品種改良が行われています。

In spring, a variety of fruits are placed in supermarkets. Strawberries have the most prominent place at this time of year. Lately, white strawberries have also Mikakeru frequently. “Mikakeru” (see) means to look at them even when you don't intend to. White strawberries are the result of Hinsyu-kairyou. “Hinsyu-kairyou” (breeding) is the process by which humans create new varieties of plants and animals. Strawberries turn red because of anthocyanins. White strawberries have anthocyanins removed by Hinsyu-kairyou. In Japan, in addition to colour, fruit Hinsyu-kairyou has also been done to increase size and sweeten the taste.

春なので、環境が変わる人も増えていますね。ずっと一緒に勉強してきた生徒さんが、テストに合格したり、日本で新しい仕事が決まった話を聞くので、とても嬉しいです。言語の勉強で一番大事なことは、使い続けることだと思います。文法や単語を覚えることも大事ですが、毎週一緒に会話ができる人がいると、自信がつきます。自信がつくと、いろいろなチャンスに出会えます。まだオンラインで授業を受けたことがない人は、ぜひ始めてみてください。私は最近、新しいレッスンのアイデアを考えています。記事は４月から再開する予定です。

Everyone can be a good language learner, but most people are not good language learners.

Of course, some people have advantages that help them learn another language. Perhaps they are fast learners or have had more exposure to the language. But some people have a leg up with language learning, and it has nothing to do with their natural ability to learn a language. They have great learning approaches and habits. In this episode, I will teach you how to be a good language learner. 

You’ll hear about the three habits of a committed language learner who improved their English communication skills and performed very well in medical residency interviews. You’ll all learn seven tips to be a good language learner.
