RUSSANDO... russo per italiani!

Где говорят по-русски? Dove si parla russo?

I don't understand why people buy such poor quality items of clothing, wear them a few times and then throw them away. It's terrible for the environment.
I hate the fashion trade. I read somewhere that companies can sell a dress for $5, but they don't make any profit. They're just aiming to attract more consumers to their websites so that they'll spend more money.
My brother's a fashion designer, but I think designer labels are a waste of money. I just shop in high street stores and I only buy casual clothes.

狐狸和葡萄

Today we're talking about a phrase that we can use to discuss hobbies, interests, or background, that we share with our colleagues. This phrase is to have things "in common". We also discuss a common mistake that international English speakers make when using this word. I hope you find it useful!

If you're trying to improve the way that you communicate in English at work then feel free to book some of my time, it would be great to meet you. See you soon!

Do we have anything in common?

In this episode of English Learners Boost, Teacher Ian — a Filipino licensed professional science teacher and English tutor — talks about the empowering message behind the phrase “Do it afraid.” Inspired by Joyce Meyer’s book Do It Afraid: Embracing Courage in the Face of Fear, this episode reminds you that courage isn’t the absence of fear but the decision to move forward despite it.
