En este episodio, continuación de los dos anteriores, hablamos del CHOQUE CULTURAL, o cultural shock que vivimos cuando viajamos.
Cuando nos enfrentamos a otras culturas muy diferentes a la nuestra podemos experimentar muchas cosas, algunas muy positivas como curiosidad, ganas de interactuar con otras personas y aprender; u otras un tanto negativas, como rechazo o abrumación.
¿Experimentaste un choque cultural antes?

Yo si! Hablemos un poco de esto, ¿estás listo/a?

DALE PLAY!

Hablemos de viajes, parte III

Describe a city you think is very interesting

You should say:

What city is it
How you know of this city
What it’s famous for

And explain why you think it’s interesting





"A city I really find extremely interesting is Venice, which I think has to be one of the most amazing, and fascinating cities in the world. Venice is located in… I think….the north of Italy, on the coast,and is one of the most popular tourist destinations… not just in Italy but anywhere in the world today.
 
Venice is known as the city of canals, but there are so many other things Venice is famous for including its beautiful bridges, gondola rides, historical buildings…. interesting old streets…..Oh! and also the Venice carnival, which looks like so much fun.
I remember I first learned about Venice back when I was in high school, and we studied the Shakespeare play “The merchant of Venice……. I can still remember my English teacher showing us a short video showing all the sites of Venice……… I remember thinking…..wow! This has to be one of the most amazing cities i’ve ever seen, and decided this was a place i must visit in the future.
Venice with all of its magnificent….. historical buildings, ancient bridges and water really seems like no other city in the world today. It almost looks like something from a movie set, and is really out of this world. It’s amazing to think that this is actually a real place that still remains and looks the same as it did hundreds of years ago. I think that's what really makes it so interesting, and  makes it stand out from other cities around the world today.
  I really think there are no other cities that can be compared to Venice, and it is truly a unique city, with more interesting and fascinating sites than you can shake a stick at"
 
Thank you……

Getting promoted at work is an important part of growing your career and making progress in your professional life. Today we're talking about some tips that can help you to achieve this and some Business English vocabulary that you can use to talk about promotions at work. We'll look at some formal, more professional ways to speak about this topic, and some less formal, more casual ways to discuss this idea. If you use English as a second language at work then improving your communication skills can be really important for promotions and getting hired for new jobs. I hope this podcast will help you improve your English, communicate better, and have more natural, native, and fluent conversations with your colleagues, managers, and friends. 

This podcast is all about helping you to communicate better, in English, at work. I work with international English speakers from around the world who use English, at work, as a second or third language and I hope that I can bring some of the ideas, vocabulary, and grammar, from those sessions, to you in this podcast.

Don't forget, if you want to work with me in one on one, private sessions then I am a full time Business English coach and tutor. I spend my whole professional life helping international professionals to improve the way that they communicate at work.
