Procrastination

В этом подкасте вы услышите краткое описание истории любви Марии из повести "Метель". 
Сначала Мария полюбила Владимира, но родители были против их свадьбы, тогда молодые решили тайно ночью обвенчаться в церкви, чтобы никто не узнал. К сожалению, всю ночь была метель и Владимир потерялся и не смог приехать. 
Зато приехал один незнакомец, он тоже потерялся во время метели, увидел церковь и вошёл в неё. Получилось так, что Марию и незнакомца обвенчали СЛУЧАЙНО. 
Через несколько лет они встретятся... Как же они могли обвенчаться случайно? Кто этот незнакомец? Это была судьба?

🚨 The Biggest Lie About Confidence in English 🚨

Most learners tell me: “I’ll be confident when my English is perfect.”

That’s a trap.
Because guess what? That day never comes.

I’ve worked with executives, IT managers, even IELTS test takers… and they all think the same way. But here’s the truth:

People don’t care about your grammar. They care if your message lands.

Confidence doesn’t show up after years of waiting. It’s built in the moment you speak, even when you’re unsure.

Confidence isn’t “personality.” It’s a skill. And like any skill, you can train it.

I’ve coached over 20,000 professionals — interviews, investor meetings, boardrooms, IELTS exams. The ones who succeed are not the ones with “perfect English.” They’re the ones who learn to trust their voice under pressure.

Imagine walking into your next big moment — not worrying about articles or tenses — but focused 100% on showing your value. That’s when opportunities open.

🔥 If you’re serious about this, book a trial with me today. In just 30 minutes, you’ll feel the difference — not in theory, but in practice.

🚨 The Biggest Lie About Confidence in English 🚨

Describe a creative person you admire

You should say;
Who the person is.
How you know of this person.
What creative things they have done
And explain why you think they are creative.

Take note of how i use the word creative while i'm speaking to really keep myself on topic. It's a good idea to practice using these key words in part 2 topics.
