SWE 107  - Grattitude

We call it a PHONE - but let's be honest. We rarely use this COMPUTER in our pocket - to make phone calls. And we often forget all the tools that it contains, built right in. Tools that are amazing for working on our English!

I hope this episode helps you get inspired to use your phone as the language partner it is! 

* Please note - I speak very fast in this episode - so it may be challenging to understand everything I say. But I repeat myself a lot, so you don't have to understand it all. I think you will understand the main point. That is what matters! I hope it inspires you to USE your English to LEARN more English - today!

A coach can be a valuable asset in overcoming the challenges posed by micromanagement. By providing a confidential and supportive environment, a coach can help individuals develop strategies to navigate these situations effectively.

A coach can help individuals pinpoint the underlying reasons for micromanagement. This could be a manager's insecurity, lack of trust, or simply a poor management style. Understanding the root cause is crucial for developing an effective strategy.

Micromanagement often thrives on employees' lack of confidence. A coach can help individuals build self-esteem, develop assertiveness skills, and learn how to communicate their needs and boundaries clearly.

A coach can guide individuals in developing open and honest communication with their manager. By teaching active listening and clear expression, a coach can help individuals create a more productive and respectful working relationship.

A coach can help individuals establish healthy boundaries with their manager. This involves identifying areas where autonomy is essential and learning how to assert those boundaries without creating conflict.

Micromanagement can often lead to feeling overwhelmed. A coach can help individuals develop effective time management and prioritization skills, enabling them to manage their workload more efficiently and reduce the need for constant supervision.

A coach can provide emotional support and encouragement throughout the process of overcoming micromanagement. By offering a listening ear and providing guidance, a coach can help individuals build resilience and maintain a positive outlook.

Remember, overcoming micromanagement is a journey, not a destination. A coach can be a valuable partner in this process, providing the tools and support needed to thrive in challenging work environments.

A Coach's Role in Overcoming Micromanagement - Episode 110

I want to talk to you about two very often confused words advice and advise. 
Advice. 
- Advice is a noun, an uncountable noun.It is spelled a-d-v-i-c-e. The ‘c’ sounds like an ‘s’. Advice. It is used to mean a suggestion about what you should do. 
Advise
- 
Advise is spelled a-d-v-i-s-e, and is a verb. The ‘s’ sounds like a ‘z’. Advise. It means to suggest what should be done, to recommend or to give information to someone. 
The main difference between advice and advise is the grammar.  So obviously, you can't use a noun in the place of a verb or a verb in the place of a noun. So if you know which is which and which pronunciation goes with which, you will never get it wrong. But a big problem is with advice being uncountable. So many times I hear, can I give you an advice? No no… it to give me a piece of advice or some advice - depending on whether you mean something singular or plural.
In theory it is very simple to understand, but if you don’t pay attention to learning the rules it can make a  big difference to you getting it right or wrong in Business English.
Every day, I hear so many advanced speakers who use these words wrong. So have a look, learn it, fix it, never get it wrong again. That's it today. Bye.

한국의 편의점 문화

한국에는 길을 걷다 보면 편의점을 자주 볼 수 있습니다. 서울처럼 큰 도시뿐만 아니라, 작은 마을에도 편의점이 있습니다. 편의점은 하루 24시간, 일주일 7일 동안 계속 열려 있어서 언제든지 이용할 수 있습니다.

편의점에서는 여러 가지 물건을 팔고 있습니다. 물, 음료수, 과자, 라면, 도시락, 과일 등 간단한 음식은 물론이고, 치약, 비누, 휴지 같은 생활용품도 있습니다. 또, 편의점에서는 휴대폰 충전기, 양말, 우산도 살 수 있어서 갑자기 필요한 물건이 생겼을 때 편리합니다.

최근에는 편의점에서 간단한 식사를 하는 사람들도 많아졌습니다. 도시락이나 컵라면을 사서 편의점 안에서 먹을 수 있습니다. 대부분의 편의점에는 전자레인지와 뜨거운 물이 있어서 바로 먹을 수 있게 도와줍니다. 어떤 편의점은 작은 테이블과 의자도 있어서 앉아서 먹을 수도 있습니다.

편의점에서는 음식이나 물건을 사는 것 외에도 다양한 서비스를 이용할 수 있습니다. 예를 들어, 편의점에서 택배를 보낼 수 있고, 공과금을 낼 수도 있습니다. 또, 복사기나 팩스를 사용할 수 있는 곳도 있습니다. 요즘은 편의점 안에 현금자동입출금기(ATM)도 있어서 돈을 찾거나 보낼 수도 있습니다.

한국의 편의점은 단순히 물건을 사는 곳이 아니라, 바쁜 현대인의 생활을 도와주는 공간입니다. 특히 혼자 사는 사람이나 늦게까지 일하는 사람들에게 편의점은 매우 편리한 장소입니다.

이렇게 편의점은 한국 사람들의 생활 속에서 중요한 역할을 하고 있으며, 앞으로도 더 다양한 기능을 가진 공간으로 발전할 것입니다.
