"After 5" by Japanese Teacher

“The pressure on Stranger Things S4” 最新作｢ストレンジャー･シングス4｣‟重圧"事情

I don't understand why people buy such poor quality items of clothing, wear them a few times and then throw them away. It's terrible for the environment.
I hate the fashion trade. I read somewhere that companies can sell a dress for $5, but they don't make any profit. They're just aiming to attract more consumers to their websites so that they'll spend more money.
My brother's a fashion designer, but I think designer labels are a waste of money. I just shop in high street stores and I only buy casual clothes.

THE POWER OF STORYTELLING

Great communicators take their audiences on a journey through storytelling, and Aristotle’s famous ‘Tell, Tell, Tell’ triptych is one of the most offered pieces of advice given to anyone hoping to become a good storyteller.

However, you don’t want to just follow the crowd, you want to stand-out and be remembered by your colleagues, your boss and your clients. So, I want to share with you an updated take on the 3-tells for the modern business era.

Firstly, share your conclusions with your audience. Start with the conclusion that you want the audience to remember. This lets them know what you are going to be communicating to them and provides a destination.

Secondly, show how and why you have reached your conclusion. This is the heart of your story and where you will spend most of your time. Because they already know the destination, this part of your presentation is more productive as your audience is already trying to convince themselves that your conclusions are correct.

Finally, tell them what you want them to do with your conclusion.
