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.

Welcome to The Global Professional Podcast. Today, I will be dissecting a crucial distinction for career advancement: the difference between an English Teacher and a Business Communication Coach. Many professionals seek to refine their English, but understanding who to engage is paramount.

Think of it this way: an English Teacher builds your foundation. They are experts in grammar, vocabulary, sentence structure, and the mechanics of the language. They are invaluable for mastering the rules, expanding your lexicon, and achieving fluency. They'll focus on reading comprehension, literature analysis, and formal writing. They cover things from basic phonics to Shakespeare. This is essential, particularly if you're strengthening your core English proficiency.

A Business Communication Coach, however, takes that foundation and strategically applies it. I focus on impact. I zero in on how you use English to achieve specific professional objectives. It's about influence, persuasion, clarity, and concision – within the context of your career.

I'm less concerned with the intricacies of a past participle, and more focused on crafting compelling presentations, navigating cross-cultural communication nuances, and delivering impactful emails. I analyze your audience, your goals, and tailor your communication accordingly.

Think boardroom, not classroom. Negotiation, not narration.

In short, one builds the linguistic toolset; the other teaches you to wield those tools effectively in the global business arena. Both are valuable, but for the ambitious professional, strategic communication is the key differentiator. Choose the professional that aligns with your desired outcomes. My method actually combines both. I also add in a career development element as well. I am a language professor, an executive business coach, and a career counselor. 

That's all for this episode. Join us next time on The Global Professional Podcast.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【运动】的话题。
在中国，最受欢迎的运动项目包括篮球、乒乓球、羽毛球、足球和跑步等。篮球在中国尤其是年轻人中非常流行，姚明的影响力使得这项运动在中国得到了极大的推广。乒乓球是中国非常突出的运动项目，早在20世纪50年代初，中国领导人毛主席就宣布乒乓球为一项全民运动。这项运动在中国的普及程度非常高，到处可以看到乒乓球桌。羽毛球是中国的另一项全民运动，与乒乓球类似，羽毛球可以随时随地进行，只需要一副球拍。足球在中国也有很大的影响力，但是因为踢足球需要更大的场地，不是每个学校都有足球场。跑步在中国变得越来越流行，越来越多的人选择在城市的街道和乡村小路上跑步。
这几年，户外运动也流行了起来。例如徒步、登山、露营、滑雪、漂流和骑行等，受到了越来越多的人喜爱。这些活动不仅能让人们亲近大自然，还能提供一种健康的生活方式。周末参加一个一天的徒步团，在山里面徒步，呼吸新鲜空气，然后在村里面吃一顿地道的农家菜，对住在城市里的年轻人来说是很新鲜的体验。在徒步的过程中也可以跟其他人聊聊天，认识新朋友，有的年轻人甚至在徒步中遇到自己的另一半。
除此之外，去健身房锻炼身体，去瑜伽馆做瑜伽也是很多年轻人的选择。你可以选择月卡、半年卡和年卡，一般年卡是最划算的。不过经常有年轻人买了年卡以后很少去，坚持运动也是一件不容易的事啊。
没有时间去健身房或者不喜欢社交的人，也可以选择在家里做运动。一边看视频，一边跟着做动作。因此很多运动博主也收获了不少粉丝，一个视频甚至有几千万的播放量。还有一些博主直播带着大家一起运动，运动变成一种新时尚。
你最喜欢什么运动？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

In this episode we are going to learn 【Hobby 】in Chinese. 
--------------------------------------------------
As a beginner, there're some vocabularies that you didn't learn before, and native speaker's speed seems too fast to understand. But don't worry, let's do it step by step. 
1st time: listen and catch the words you know already, have a guess about the content.
2nd time: look at the text to check if you guessed it right. 
3rd time: listen one more time, repeat after it.
4th time: practice until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text.
