Teacher Joseph's Podcast

The joy of Learning (with transcript)

कुनै ठाउँमा एउटा ठूलो वन थियो । वनमा बाघ, सिंह, भालु, हात्ती, गैंडा, खरायो, जरायो, बाँदर आदि थिए । सिंहचाहिँ वनको राजा थियो । सिंहले मनपरी ढङ्गले वनका जनावर मारेर खान्थ्यो ।

एकदिन सबै जनावर एकै ठाउँमा भेला भए । सिंहको आहारा हुन पालैपालो जाने सल्लाह भयो । यो कुरो जनावरहरुले सिंहलाई पनि भने । सिंह पनि दिनदिनै सिकारको खोजीमा जानुनपर्दा खुसी भयो ।

जनावरहरु आ-आफ्ना पालामा सिंहको आहारा हुन जान थाले । एकदिन एउटा खरायोको पालो आयो । “मर्नका लागि किन छिटो जाने ?” भनेर खरायो सिंहकहाँ ढिलो गयो ।

अबेरसम्म केही खान नपाउँदा सिंहलाई खुब भोक लागेको थियो । उसलाई जनावरदेखि निकै रिस उठेको थियो । उसले खरायोलाई देख्नासाथ गर्जेर सोध्यो, “किन यति ढिलो आइस् ?”

खरायोले नरम भएर भन्यो, “महाराज! मलाई हजुरजस्तै सिंहले बाटामा समायो । उसले मलाई खान लागेको थियो । मैले ऊसँग हजुरकहाँ भेट गरेर आउने बाचा गरेँ । अनि मात्र म यहाँ आउन सकेँ ।”

सिंहले अझै गर्जेर भन्यो, “मेरो राज्यमा अर्को सिंह कसरी आयो ? त्यो कहाँ छ, मलाई देखाइहाल् । म त्यसलाई जिउँदो छोड्दिनँ ।”

खरायोले “जो हुकुम महाराज” भनेर सिंहलाई आफू आएको बाटो लिएर गयो । खरायोले सिंहलाई एउटा इनार देखायो । उसले सिंहलाई भन्यो, “महाराज! त्यो यही इनारमा लुकेको छ ।”

सिंहले इनारभित्र हेर्‍यो । उसले इनारमा अर्को सिंह देख्यो । उसलाई त्यो सिंह देखेर रिस उठ्यो । सिंह त्यसलाई मार्न इनारमा हाम फाल्यो । मुर्ख सिंहले आफ्नै छाया पनि चिनेन । ऊ इनारमा डुब्यो ।

जनावरहरुलाई अब सिंहको डर भएन । उनीहरु रमाएर बाँच्न पाउने भए । सबैले खरायोलाई स्याबासी दिए ।

हाम्रो कथा सकियो । 
अनि हामीले यो कथा बाट के सिक्नुपर्छ भने- सधैं बलले मात्र जितिँदैन , बुद्धिले पनि काम लिनुपर्छ।  

हामीले सुनेको सिंह र खरायोको कथा आशा छ तपाईंलाई  मन पर्यो होला। सुनिदिनुभएकोमा धन्यवाद l

大家好，我是Yuli。这是我的第7期播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊“梦想”。
大家还记得自己小时候的梦想是什么吗？我小时候的梦想是开一家卖零食的小商店，这样我就可以有吃不完的零食了。我从来没有想过我要当一名老师，因为我觉得老师的工作很单调。那个时候，我的老师们重复地教着一样的课本，一样的内容。我觉得这不是我喜欢的工作，我很快就会厌倦的。
但是命运很神奇，长大后，我竟然成为了一名老师。我为什么会做我曾经很讨厌的工作呢？因为我发现，老师的工作也可以很不一样。
第一，我可以教学生各种各样的知识，不只是课本的内容。我们还会通过视频、图片来学习中文。我们也会聊各种各样的话题，分享自己的看法。
第二，做这个工作我可以发挥自己的创造力。我总是思考可以用什么资料和什么方法给学生上课。根据学生的表现，我会一直改善我的课堂。
最后一点，也是最重要的一点，做这份工作让我觉得很有成就感。因为我帮助学生把中文学得更好，他们在生活和工作中可以用到。每次看到学生因为会说中文而生活发生改变的时候，我都很替他们高兴。
那你呢？你的梦想是什么呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

梦想 Dream （Intermediate and advanced level）

My friend Carol and I decided to have a short break at the seaside for a few days. We made a reservation at a hostel in South Wales where the prices were very reasonable. We were looking forward to a few days of sunbathing, seeing the sights and eating delicious food. However, it turned out that the hostel was in a very remote location with no beaches, cafes or facilities nearby. Seeing the heavy rain, we headed home the following day.

Therapeutic English for your life. How to succeed in life and how to stay happy. 

We tend to have lots of thoughts and ideas about things but what's the quality of those thoughts?

Are they supporting us or destroyng us?

Do we know what they are ?

What if we'll ( for once ) become aware of what's in your mind and realize ( finally ) what is the real reason why we stumble from time to time.

Will that be of assistance?

This podcast will help you to explore what's in your mind so you may never need a coach or a psychologist as you'll know what you are creating.

Use it and May The Force Be With You :)

Use a pause before or after saying sorry.
This makes the person you’re talking to listen carefully to what you are saying.  

Here are a few examples.

Sorry, (pause) I'm afraid I have to go. 
Listen, (pause) sorry Amanda. I'm in a rush.
Sorry, (pause) I better get going.
