Daily English Podcast Chapter # 20

Estoy en mi terraza y se me vienen a la mente la cara de mis estudiantes de inmersión. Imágenes de ellos interactuando con gente local, comprando comida en el mercadillo, disfrutando de las actividades que había tanto fuera como dentro de la casa... es decir, usando el idioma. 
Automáticamente lo comparo con las caras y gestos de mis antiguos estudiantes de las escuelas de idiomas dónde he trabajado, y realmente hay mucha diferencia. Entonces, me vienen estas preguntas a la cabeza ¿Qué no se nos enseña en las escuelas?¿Qué tal de confidente y capacitado estoy cuando se termina el curso de una academia o instituto?

From a job seeker to a value-giver. How do I be offered a position instead of begging for one?

Those who don't listen to this recording may create these kinds of feelings and thoughts in HR managers minds: failure attitude, lack of impression, inability to persuade, lack of sales skills, and continuous doubts.

Will you hire a person that gives you these impressions?

Can you relate to this statement: "I feel like begging for a job instead of offering my services?".

Have you heard people do this? Or even yourself?

It seems that they forget they have experience, value, solved cases, success stories, etc.

It seems that a job interview process clutters their imagination with 'what has to be done' in a job interview suggested by Google, but they forget who they are and what they stand for.

Can you relate to it?

It's like your 5–10–20 years of experience don't matter any longer.

Why did you throw it away? Why have this attitude, and what can it cause during a job interview?

Dive into the recording now and benefit from one of my students, Arina; she was the one that inspired me to record this success secret for you.

And when you are ready, apply for my trial class and be accepted for 1-on-1 private coaching right now.

Secrets to Fluency

Neil McTaggart makes his first journey into town after settling in Canada.
The air is clean, the world quieter than the mills of Kilbirnie he left behind. In a warm little café, he meets Mrs Brant, a woman with her hair pinned up and a strong puritan look that reminds him of his grandmother. Through her quiet kindness, Neil begins to sense what belonging might feel like in this new land.

This gentle, reflective story captures the rhythm of early immigrant life in rural Canada — the small kindnesses, the silence, and the slow building of community far from home.

🎧 Part of the “Neil McTaggart” storytelling series — following a young Scottish man’s journey of migration, memory, and identity in 1920s Canada.
