Happy New Year! 🎍 A new year has begun. Have you decided on your "New Year's Resolutions" yet?

In this episode, I talk about my two main goals for the year:

Podcast Consistency: I aim to create and upload episodes twice a week, more than I did last year. Let me know what topics you'd like to hear about!

Swimming: I’ve started going to a local sports center twice a week. Currently, I can swim about 15 meters using the breaststroke, but my goal is to reach 50 meters! 🏊‍♂️

Swimming is great for health and fitness. I’d love to hear your resolutions too—please share them in the comments!

Hey this is Chadwick.

Today I am going to talk briefly about those little pop-up advertisements, also called pop-up ads, that appear on websites or videos that you are perusing on the internet.

I fully understand the necessity of the pop up ads.  I mean, while the internet appears to offer us so much information instantly, and in most cases 'free', the truth is someone somehow must pay the bills.

So, I completely appreciate the need to sell something in order to bring in some cold hard cash, or, money.

And yes, it's true, occasionally I enjoy having my attention drawn to new and exotic music equipment from my favorite shopping website, Sweetwater.

However, if I am going to be honest, most of the time pop ups annoy me.

I mean, I'm pretty intentional about how I spend my time on the internet.

And if I am looking for some specific information on a topic, or trying to listen some music on Youtube, then it can be a bit of a bother to 'X' out of an ad, or wait 15 seconds before I can watch a video.

How about you? What do you think of pop up advertisements?

Leave a comment and let me know your thoughts.

🎧 The AI Is Watching You

What if your job interview was evaluated not by a person, but by artificial intelligence?

In Korea, AI interviews are already used by major companies like Hyundai and LG.

This episode explores how facial expressions, tone of voice, and even blinking can impact your score—and what that says about hiring culture in Korea.

Сегодня для подкаста выбрала отличного современного автора - Дмитрия Глуховского. Его роман называется “Текст”. Я смотрела кино и спектакль по этому произведению, а вот книгу (точнее ее часть) почитаю сейчас вместе с вами.

Для начала прочту отрывок полностью, а потом объясню вам отдельные слова и выражения. 

Слова из отрывка: дое́хать - передвигаясь, едучи, прибыть куда-нибудь - to get there; поискови́к - поисковая машина - search engine; постро́ить маршру́т - to build a route; приме́рный - приблизительный - approximate; удо́бная шту́ка - handy thing, convenient thing; судьба́ - fate, destiny; простра́ивать - to plot; то́чка А - point A; вбить теку́щую пози́цию - to enter the current position; пешко́м - на своих ногах, не на повозке или коне, поезде - on foot, afoot; по́езд - train; брак - marriage; сто́лько-то - so much, so many; продолжи́тельность - время течения, действия чего-нибудь - duration; альтернати́вный - alternative.

Такой вот интересный отрывок и про навигацию в дороге, и про жизнь.
Спасибо всем, кто слушает мой подкаст! Не забывайте лайки и комментарии, делитесь своими впечатлениями от книг. И помните, что чтение по-русски углубляет ваши знания языка! Хороших вам книг, друзья!

Отрывок из романа "Текст" Д. Глуховский

Why am I trusted by more than 1 million English learners globally?

It's a bold statement, but it's true. I personally touched more than 15 thousand students in my live classes, and not only that, I was there for them in times of need. 

The need wasn't to improve their English for a job interview or improve it for IELTS speaking. It was to uplift their spirits and be their assistant on this journey.

Most of you who read it have been learning English for 10+ years and are still struggling, so it isn't just to do with improving your English ability... It's something else, and it's hidden inside of you—your belief in yourself plays a major role!

What you think about yourself and how you see yourself is the key, and therefore, my podcast begins with the words of famous psychologist Emil Coué: "Every day, in every way, I am getting better, better, and better."

Start using this formula for the goal you have, and be surprised at what it'll offer you in return!

I'd love to personally support you on your journey of improving your English, let me know how I can do it.
