Daily English Podcast Chapter # 17

Today we're going to explore a fascinating topic - why the word "mama" or something similar is used in different languages for mothers. As a Ukrainian host, I bring a unique perspective to this discussion.

How Important Is Self-Discipline In One's Journey Of Improving Their Language Enhancement?

Self-Motivation: While external motivation, such as teachers or language partners, can be helpful, self-discipline is the internal motivation that keeps the student going even when external support is not available.

Independence in Learning: Self-disciplined students can take charge of their own learning. They seek out resources, practice consistently, and actively engage in learning activities without constant supervision.

Language Immersion: Immersing oneself in the English language is an effective way to improve language skills. Self-discipline allows students to seek out English media, books, and conversations, enhancing their language exposure.

Consolidating Learning: Repetition and reinforcement are essential for language acquisition. Self-disciplined students review and practice regularly, which helps consolidate what they have learned.

Adaptability: Self-disciplined students can adapt their learning methods and approaches to suit their preferences and needs. They are open to trying new techniques and finding what works best for them.

Long-Term Commitment: Learning a language is a long-term endeavor. Self-discipline ensures that the student remains committed and dedicated to their language learning goals over an extended period.

Confidence and Empowerment: Self-discipline leads to achievements and progress, which, in turn, boosts the student's confidence and sense of empowerment in their language abilities.

はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの29回目です。もうすぐ30回です。このポッドキャストは毎週更新しているので、半年以上続いている計算になります。それと、6月3日は開業記念日でした。私は2019年のこの日に、フリーランスの語学講師として税務署に開業届を提出しました。今年で3年目になります。ここまで続いているのはみなさんのおかげです。いつも本当にありがとうございます。

Hello. This is episode 29 of my podcast. It is almost 30 times. The podcast is updated weekly, which means it has been running for more than six months. Also, 3 June was my opening day. On this day in 2019, I registered my business with the tax office as a freelance language teacher. This year will be my third year. It is thanks to all of you that I have lasted this long. Thank you so much for everything.

今月末に、italki主催のウェビナーでホストを務めることになりました。日本語教育のニッチの見つけ方について話します。プレゼンテーション用のスライドを作るのは久しぶりです。今回のウェビナーは先生向けですが、先生以外の人にも役立つ内容にしたいと考えています。詳細が決まり次第お知らせします。

I will be hosting a webinar hosted by italki at the end of this month. I will be talking about how to find a niche in Japanese language teaching. It has been a long time since I have made slides for a presentation. This webinar is aimed at teachers, but I hope it will be useful for non-teachers as well. I will let you know as soon as we have more details.

大阪は暑い日が続いています。毎日最高気温が30度ぐらいあり、すっかり夏です。暑いと食欲が出ないし、筋トレも大変に感じるので、体調を崩しやすいです。鼻水は止まりましたが、家にいてばかりだと、体が重く感じます。今日は休みだったので、スーパーで買い物をした後、散歩に出かけました。

The weather in Osaka continues to be hot. The maximum temperature is around 30 degrees Celsius every day and it is totally summer. When it's hot, I don't have much of an appetite and muscle training feels hard, so it's easy to get sick. My runny nose has stopped, but if I stay at home all the time, I feel heavy. Today was my day off, so after shopping at the supermarket, I went for a walk.

私の家から近い難波駅のひとつ隣に、心斎橋という駅があります。このあたりは、デパートや外資系のブランドの路面店が多いショッピング街です。東京の新宿や表参道に似ています。午後6時ぐらいに行くと、人がたくさんいて、買い物や食事をしています。私はまず服屋に行って、それからアイスコーヒーを買いました。
