Mindsets for Language Learning

In this week's episode of English In A Teacup, we are exploring vocabulary related to film. This episode is particularly useful for students preparing the Cambridge exams (B2/C1) where there is often the task of writing a book or film review. To help us along is, of course,  our fine English lady, Miss Finesstocrat, who today will be telling us of her date at the cinema. How did it go? Let’s find out!

Episode 13 (R.I.P phone) Filming in Israel
Welcome back to Streetwise English Podcast. I'm your host, Carl. Since we're on the topic of cell phones, I want to tell you another story about my favorite cell phone in the world, which is a Sony cell phone from Japan. Was a Sony cell phone from Japan. And I was taking a video of a tourist group in Tel Aviv, Israel.


So I'm an American guy, and I was with a group of Chinese tourists and I was hired to film these tourists on their trip in Israel.


It was our first day at the beach. I think it might have been our very first day in Israel. I think we arrived early in the morning at the airport. So I filmed people picking up their luggage and then we were cruising around at the beach, maybe we visited a store. I think there was a guy who played a trumpet that was kind of like made out of a bullhorn or something, a traditional horn, an old man with a beard and a, um, a hat, like the traditional Jewish people wear there in Tel Aviv.


And anyways, we were down at the beach, and this was the first time I'd seen the beach in Tel Aviv. And let me tell you, it looked like Santa Monica, California. There were people roller skating. There were people , girls in bikinis. There were surfers out in the water. People surfing in Tel Aviv. I had no idea. This is not the picture I had in my mind when thinking of Israel or Tel Aviv.


So my cell phone that I mentioned earlier that I just loved was a Sony cell phone and it was waterproof. The phone was waterproof. You could dump it in the water in a swimming pool and it would continue shooting. And I had actually filmed with it before in Spain underwater in the ocean and filmed fish swimming and everything and no problem.
So this trip though, I was in Tel Aviv  (text count limit)

Professional networking is the strategic cultivation of mutually beneficial relationships with individuals in your field or related industries. It goes beyond simply exchanging business cards; it's about building trust and rapport through consistent interaction and exchange of knowledge.

The core objective is to create a network of contacts who can provide support, guidance, and opportunities throughout your career journey. This network can be a source of:

Job opportunities: Often, positions are filled through referrals, and a strong network increases your chances of being recommended for suitable roles.

Industry insights: By connecting with experienced professionals, you gain valuable knowledge about current trends, challenges, and best practices in your field.

Mentorship: Seasoned professionals can offer invaluable guidance on career development, skill-building, and navigating workplace dynamics.

Collaboration: Networking fosters connections that can lead to fruitful collaborations on projects, expanding your skillset and reach.
Professional networking encompasses various activities:

Attending industry events: Conferences, workshops, and meetups provide excellent platforms to connect with peers and potential collaborators.

Joining professional organizations: Associations offer networking opportunities, educational resources, and access to industry leaders.

Leveraging online platforms: Professional networking sites like LinkedIn allow you to connect with colleagues and showcase your expertise.

Building relationships with colleagues: Maintaining positive relationships with current and past colleagues strengthens your network within your existing professional sphere.

Effective networking requires a genuine interest in others, active listening, and the ability to build rapport.  Remember, it's a two-way street; aim to provide value to your network by offering support, sharing knowledge, and making meaningful connections.

In this episode we are going to learn how to 【Introduce a friend】. 
--------------------------------------------------
As a beginner, there're some vocabularies that you didn't learn before, and native speaker's speed seems too fast to understand. But don't worry, let's do it step by step. 
1st time: listen and catch the words you know alreay, have a guess about the content.
2nd time: look at the text to check if you guessed it right. 
3rd time: listen one more time, repeat after it.
4th time: practise until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text.
