★★Text(Kanji)★★
クロエちゃんは　ネコです。うちに来てから、もうすぐ１年です。初めは　テレビの　後ろに　隠れていましたが、今は　ベッドの　真ん中で　グーグー寝ています。

かくれんぼが　大好きです。
わたしが　隠れると、クロエちゃんは　ニャーニャーなきながら、わたしを　探します。ご飯が　食べたいとき、口を　ペロペロしています。本当に　かわいいです。

そんなクロエちゃんを　見ていると、
元気な気持ちに　なります。クロエちゃんは　わたしの　癒しです。いつも　クロエちゃんに　癒されています。



★★Applied conversation practice★★
（Animal species）の（Pet Name）は　（Animal noises）なきながら、
・・・　What your pet does　・・・ます。


れい）〈いぬ〉ポチ、ワンワン、まいにち　げんかんで　ぼくを　むかえる（　He greets me at the door every day.　）
　1）　〈ねこ〉たまちゃん、ニャーニャー、わたしを　さがす
　2）　〈ブタ〉じろう、ブーブー、いえのなかを　うろうろする（　He wanders around the house.　）



★★Extra thinking training★★
「すると、いつも」の「と」は、どれですか。
Which is the “と” in “すると、いつも"?

れい）いぬの　ぷーすけは、おかあさんと　いっしょに　スーパーに　いきました。　×

れい）いぬの　ぷーすけは　おかあさんを　みると、とんで　よろこびます。　◎

１）いぬの　ぷーすけは、とりを　みて、「わん」と　なきました。
２）いぬの　ぷーすけは　ごはんを　たべると、すぐに　ねます。　


NOTE:
The sentence pattern “Vdic. と、～” means “Vます。すると、いつも～”. Therefore, the example sentence “いぬの　ぷーすけは　おかあさんを　みると、とんで　よころびます” means “いぬの　ぷーすけが　おかあさんを　みる→ いつもとんでよろこぶ”. It has the same meaning as “V る+とき ,” but with the added nuance of “いつも(always)”.

ネコのクロエちゃん（4）

"I want to learn English."  This is the wrong goal!

Some people say that choosing the wrong goals can lead to self-sabotage.

When it comes to learning English (as it's the wrong goal in 90% of cases for my adult achievers), it leads to: A) lack of confidence (at some point in speaking); B) continuous self-doubt (on various levels). C) Never really experiencing delight and self-satisfaction about your progress.

Can you relate to any of the things I wrote above? Almost certainly, you can; some can confirm all three aspects.

Please listen to my words of love and care in this deep 10-minute heart-to-heart podcast from me to you as a gift to learn to finally choose the right goal for you and therefore to choose the right steps to follow to achieve this goal.

To have freedom, confidence, excitement, and the progress you'll be making from listening to this podcast onwards!!!

Much love and care,
Your personal coach and a challenger

The Conversation Introduction Episode 

The formula you were never taught — and why 15 years of learning English didn’t work

Stress → Freeze → Shutdown
(No access to your real knowledge)

If this feels familiar, you’ve been climbing the wrong ladder all along.

Not the knowledge ladder — but ignoring the psychological layer of communication.

Fear creates stress.
Stress creates freeze.
Freeze blocks access.

That’s why more grammar, more courses, more preparation don’t solve the problem.

People come to me when traditional methods stop working.
When books don’t help.
When grammar, reading, and writing don’t translate into real speaking.

They come to be stretched — and to activate what’s already inside them.

Over 20,000 sessions.
Clients from 70 countries.
From teenagers to CEOs.

This is not language learning.
This is communication activation.

The work follows a simple but non-obvious logic:
Discover → Design → Deploy → Accountability

If you’ve felt stuck for years, this recording will change how you see the problem.

🎙 One-Minute Speaking Challenge by Anatoly Glazkov – Voice Unlock Method™

The formula you were never taught — and why 15 years of learning English didn’t work

In this episode we are going to learn how to【introduce my home】in Chinese. 
--------------------------------------------------
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 already, 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: practice until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text.
