Argentina y su cultura

Cuántos días en Argentina

¡Hola! Welcome to Spanish from Zero, a podcast for people who are just starting the amazing journey that is learning Spanish.

Today’s practice is focused on the verb Ser (to be). That's the verb we use to talk about someone's occupations, origin and title.

The exercise is really simple. I’m gonna say a couple of sentences, but the subject (i.e. the person) is missing. For example, if you hear “am from Colombia”, the subject missing from that sentence would be "I". 

Ready? Here are the sentences:

Soy de Argentina.
Es de Perú.
Eres de Guatemala.
Son de Colombia.
Somos de Chile.
Es doctor.
Soy dentista.
Somos amigos.
Son hermanos.
Eres profesor.

How was it? You can check out the answers and see how you did here: https://spanishconmar.wordpress.com/2022/03/11/spanish-from-zero-02/

Job Interview Preparation | Build Strong Communication Under Pressure

Job Preparation Counseling. How To Impress the manager in a matter of minutes?!

In this week’s episode of the Real English Conversations Podcast, the show that helps global professionals speak clearly and confidently at work, host Curtis Davies welcomes two innovative creators who are transforming how we think about learning, collaboration, and communication.

Joining the show are Maryam Shoja and old high school buddy Matt Gardner, the founding partners behind Mod Hob Cooperative & PlotWeaver: Cards of Creation — a creator-led producers’ cooperative building practical, regenerative systems for learning, collaboration, and community resilience.

Mod Hob (short for Modern Hobbies) brings together educators, designers, technologists, and artists to design systems that replace extractive work with cooperative intelligence — treating people as co-creators rather than users, customers, or resources.

In this conversation, we explore their philosophy, their design process, and how their collaborative storytelling system helps individuals and teams think more clearly, communicate with empathy, and create shared meaning.

Maryam is a Learning Systems Designer, educator, strategist, and English Language coach with 16+ years of experience designing inclusive and neurodivergent-friendly learning environments. Matt went to high school with Curtis & is a user-centered product design strategist, UX researcher, and systems thinker with 20+ years of experience helping cross-functional teams turn complexity into clarity.

Together, they are building tools that make systems thinking, emotional intelligence, and creative collaboration accessible to everyday people — from classrooms to corporate teams.

This episode is especially powerful for educators, leaders, language learners, and global professionals who rely on English to collaborate, present ideas, and build strong relationships at work.

🎙️English Storytelling, with Maryam Shoja & Matt Gardner of Mod Hob Cooperative | Real English Conversations For Global professionals



五百年后，小牧童转世轮回成为了一名医生，名叫做许仙。 

今年，他已经二十多岁，相貌堂堂，医术高明。在京城，他拥有一个医馆，名为济世堂。每天来找他看病的人络绎不绝。人们对他的医术赞不绝口。

一天，他的医馆里来了一个不速之客。这人径直向许仙走去。许仙心里一惊，定眼望去，这是一名穿着一袭白纱裙的姑娘，只见她眉若青黛，皓齿明眸，肤如凝脂，长得那叫一个倾国倾城。要说，许大夫也是见过世面的的人，但这样绝美的女子倒是头一回遇见。他毕竟也是到了谈婚论嫁的年龄了，突然这么个绝色美人出现在他的面前，近在咫尺，何况发生在这在那个男女授受不亲的年代，许仙顿时觉得心都要跳出来了。

发了一分钟的呆，他就回过神来，马上向这名姑娘道歉，毕竟他那么直勾勾地盯着人家姑娘发呆，也是有些冒犯。

许仙问，“请问小姐尊姓大名？ 您今天是有什么需要我帮助的吗？”
姑娘娇羞一笑说，“许大夫，我名叫白素贞，我不是来看病的，我是来跟您学习医术的。”
许仙忙说，“感谢姑娘抬举，可是，本医馆暂时不招收学徒。”
姑娘说，“没关系的，我可以帮您打扫卫生，帮您照顾一下看病的人。而且，我不收一分的工钱。这样总可以了吧？”
许仙斩钉截铁地说，“姑娘还是先请回吧，我这里已经有个帮手了。”
姑娘说，“好吧，我今天回去，明天再来。”
说完，她也没有生气，只是，转身就走了。

许仙以为是那个大小姐，闲来无聊，拿他打趣，也就不再把这件事放在心上。可是，第二天，第三天，接连好几天，这位姑娘不厌其烦地过来央求许仙留下她，她保证，不学医术也行，她就打打杂，而且保证不用管吃住，不用发工钱。

许仙见她留意已决，而且，看她聪明伶俐，手脚利索，就答应让她留下。他心想，这看起来就是千金小姐，哪天干得苦了，自己就知难而退了。

许仙说，“您可以留下来，但是，您要遵守我们一贯的规矩，而且保证每天按时来医馆。不许喊累，不许影响正常的医馆正常运营。而且还要保密患者的隐私，在患者就诊的时候，不许偷听。好吧，我们还有很多其他的规矩，你且慢慢学吧。”
白素贞说，“谢谢，许大夫，我明天一早就过来帮您。”

只见白素贞婀娜多姿地给许仙行了个礼，转身就翩然离去了... …
