What is a winning mindset for a job interview?+

As someone who has interviewed hundreds of English teachers, I’ve seen firsthand the mindset patterns that set top performers apart.

Here are a few key traits of winners:

Growth Mindset: Winners see every interview, even those that don’t lead to a job offer, as an opportunity to learn and grow. They reflect on their performance, identify areas for improvement, and use feedback to enhance their skills.

Positive Self-Belief: Winners believe in their abilities and their potential to succeed. They approach interviews with confidence and a genuine enthusiasm for the opportunity.

Goal-Oriented: Winners have a clear understanding of their career goals and how the role aligns with their aspirations. They articulate their aspirations clearly and demonstrate how their skills and experience can contribute to the company’s success.

So, what exactly is a winning mindset?

It’s not about being perfect or always getting the job. It’s about embracing a set of attitudes and beliefs that empower you to overcome challenges and achieve your goals.

Listen to the recording and gain insights from someone who was the top performer for 54 consecutive months out of 1500-4000 English teachers!

You’ll uncover key strategies that can help you develop a winning mindset and ace your next interview.

To Your Success,
Anatoly

What is a winning mindset for a job interview?

“I’m not actually a huge fan of TV, but there is one show that I do enjoy watching every weekend. It’s called _______ idol, which is a hugely popular reality show, where aspiring singers compete against each other for a shot at fame, or even a record contract.




The show is on every Sunday night at about 8pm, and I normally watch it at home with my family.




Young people who dream of being a famous singer, can have the chance to be chosen to perform on the show in front of judges who select the best performers. Later on the public can also get involved, and vote for their favourite singer by phone or online, and the singer with the most votes becomes the winner.




One of the things I love about this show is that it gives any Joe Bloggs off the street, not only a genuine chance to show off their talent, but to also have a shot at fame.




I think we all dream of what it might be like to be a star, and this show really opens doors for some of these dreamers, if of course they have the talent.




On top of that, it’s a lot of fun watching the early stages of the show, and passing judgement on the different contestants as well as supporting the best singers, as if I had discovered them myself.

第1話　静岡でバンジージャンプ⁈

This is a short introduction podcast sumamrising what the full series of podcasts will cover:

If you ever googled "How to create a resume" or "How to write a covering letter" or "What are the top 10 most common interview questions" then you are not alone. We have all done it. And what do we learn from these searches? That there are no right answers, there are just thousands and thousands of different questions, resume formats and tips on covering letters. And you end up not knowing where to start!

Now add to this problem the fact that English might not be your first language and the role you are applying for requires you to communicate in English every day, then it is no surprise that this entire process is daunting.

I will help you change the way you think about the application process - to simplify it and to personalise it; to understand that it is a matching process where you are looking for a job that matches your ambitions and skills, and where the company in looking for people that match their role requirements.

I'll teach you a few simple techniques that will prepare you to answer almost any question in a clear and effective way. We will take you through the application process starting with the most important aspect: you, your skills, your goals; and then we will move on to how to create a brilliant resume and covering letter and how to prepare for and deliver an authentic and confident interview.

I will also give you the key phrases and grammar you need to be successful in each of those steps.

Español No Excuses: Level-Up Your Mind, Speak Out Loud

Cómo vencer la pereza y estudiar español todos los días

こんにちは！Atsushiです。

今日の天気は曇り。
今の気温は25℃。
みなさんが住んでいるところは晴れですか？雨ですか？

さて、今日は、オノマトペ、について。

みなさん、オノマトペ、という言葉を聞いたことがありますか？

もしかしたらはじめて聞くかもしれないですね。　

では、日本語で、

ざーざーとか、ポタポタとか、聞いたことがありますか？
それがオノマトペです。

オノマトペとは、
物からでる音や、気持ちなどの音がないものを文字で表したもののことをいいます。

たとえば、

ブーブー
ドキドキ
ガチャン
チリーン
ドカン

ばらばら
めろめろ
じろじろ
ふらふら

こういう言葉、聞いたことありますか？

たとえば、見る、を表現する時、英語では、
see,watch,lookなどがあり、いろいろな表現ができます。
ですが、日本語では、見る、という言葉しかないので、その前に、キョロキョロ見るとか、ジッと見るなど、オノマトペを使って表現します。


ちなみに、「onomatopēe（オノマトペ）」はフランス語だそうです。

オノマトペを上手に使うと、日本語がぐんぐんと話しやすくなるかもしれませんね。

ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！
