Episode 30 : How do you prepare for Job Interviews in English?

Hoy conoceremos un poco de la novela El Amante Japonés, de la famosa escritora chilena Isabel Allende. La autora ha logrado trascender la barrera del idioma y sus obras se han traducido a más de 42 idiomas. Es considerada como la escritora viva más leída del mundo de la lengua española.

La novela de la cual leeré los fragmentos aborda la relación entre Alma Belasco y el jardinero japonés Ichimei, pero la trama se desarrolla con inusitados escenarios y personajes que acompañan y enriquecen el relato.

FRAGMENTOS DE EL AMANTE JAPONÉS

You know, before you dive into any new structure of learning, it’s super important to ask all the WHYS. Be curious! Find out the reasons behind a grammatical rule, a sentence structure, or even the way a word is pronounced. Trust me, when you know the reasons why something is presented the way it is, it becomes so much easier to remember and use in conversation and writing.

Think of it like building a house. You need a solid foundation of bricks even though you might just see the pretty, colorful windows. Behind every beautiful house is a strong foundation of bricks, which once laid, cannot be removed. It’s the same with language. Once you know the reasons behind the rules, you’re stuck with them in a good way!

🎙️ Why Perfectionism Kills Your IELTS Fluency — and What to Do in 3 Seconds.

I’ve seen it hundreds of times — students who know all the grammar, all the phrases, yet freeze the moment they have to speak. Their voice tightens, their mind goes blank, and all that knowledge disappears.

In this episode, I talk about why that happens — and why perfectionism is the real enemy of fluency. I’ll share a story from one of my students, explain what’s going on in your head when you start overthinking, and show you a simple 3-second shift that helps you sound calm, confident, and real — even in front of an examiner.

If you’ve ever felt that your English suddenly “dies” when you need it most, this episode will help you bring it back to life.

Stay till the end — I’ve got a small bonus for you and a way to get personal feedback after the episode.
