はっきり言って、夏、京都へ行くのはおすすめではありません。暑すぎるからです。それなのに「祇園祭（ぎおんまつり）」という、日本三大祭りのひとつが、一か月にわたって行われています。だから、夏も京都は観光客（かんこうきゃく tourist）でいっぱいです。ChatGPTハルカちゃんが、そんな夏の京都の楽しいすごし方を教えてくれます。しかし、今回、ハルカちゃん絶不調（ぜつふちょう very bad condition )！AIも夏バテ( summer heat fatigue )するのかな？

すずまりの日本語「きき耳ずきん」S2

第6話　暑いけど、そうだ京都へ行こう

People’s words can have a big effect on others’ lives. Think about what you say before it comes out of your mouth. It might just be the difference between life and death.

Short Stories with Rose 

The Group of Frogs 

Many paintings and statues are of nudes - people with no clothes on.
So why did they start covering their naughty bits with fig leaves, which is a really BAD idea?
("Naughty bits" - I will leave you to your imagination as to what they are. There are also hundreds of words to describe them, from biological terms to very weird slang expressions!)

The Social Evolutionary

Why do naked people in art wear fig leaves? It's scary!

Let's talk today about how to give feedback at work, especially if you use English as a second language in the workplace and are not a native English speaker.

Giving feedback to your colleagues, your staff, and your managers, is an essential part of a great team. However, so few people actually do it! We often think of feedback as a scary thing that is reserved for end of year performance reviews and appraisals. However, the best teams in the world make both negative and positive feedback a key part of their company culture.

Today we’re going to hear some tips and ideas for how to give feedback to your colleagues. We’ll hear some great natural and native sounding vocabulary that we can use to do this, and then we’ll finish off with some challenges for you. Including a speaking challenge and a vocabulary quiz to see what you’ve remembered from today’s podcast.

What is the easiest way to get a higher score in IELTS speaking?

Certainly, there are many ways to get a person to be quick at giving an answer, but I found language learners are stuck when expressing themselves.

Have you felt stuck when trying to give an easy answer when answering IELTS speaking questions?

Imagine you'll be asked a question to which you have no answer; you've never heard or seen it occur, nor do you know anyone who does it.

In the mini-podcast, I allow you to express yourself with ease when answering random parts 1, 2, and 3 of the IELTS speaking exam.

Give it a shot, enjoy the listening and learning, and let me train you personally.
