はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの8回目です。週末はこの前買ったアンクルウェイトをつけて筋トレをしました。アンクルウェイトは、0.5kgの違いでも大きな変化を感じます。ダンベルも3kgから5kgにしようと考えていましたが、いきなり重くすると体に負担がかかりすぎて、よくないかもしれません。無理のない習慣を続けながら、少しずつ増やしていく必要がありそうです。仕事や勉強のプロセスも似ています。

Hello, This is episode 8 of season 2 of my podcast. At the weekend I did some muscle training with the ankle weights I bought last time. With ankle weights, even a difference of 0.5 kg makes a big difference. I was also thinking of increasing the dumbbells from 3kg to 5kg, but suddenly going heavier might not be a good idea as it puts too much strain on the body. I think I need to increase the weight steadily little by little while continuing regularly, and not exerting myself too much.The process of work and study is similar.

先週は大学の授業でZ世代の話をしました。Z世代とは、1990年代後半から2010年ぐらいまでに生まれた人です。私はその一つ前のミレニアル世代(1980～1995年生まれ)です。Y世代とも呼ばれます。Z世代はデジタル・ネイティブなので、コミュニケーションや情報集めをほとんどオンラインで行います。大学教授にはX世代(1965年～1980年生まれ)以前の人が多いです。X世代のコミュニケーションや情報集めの方法は、電話でした。Y世代の私は、インターネットも電話もよく使います。授業では、すべての世代が集まって、考え方の違いについて議論しました。

Last week I talked about Generation Z in my university class. Generation Z are people born between the late 1990s and about 2010. I am a millennial (born between 1980 and 1995), one generation before that, also known as Generation Y. Generation Z are digital natives, so they do most of their communication and information gathering online. Many university professors are Generation X (born 1965-1980) or pre-Generation X; the way Generation X communicated and gathered information was by telephone. As Generation Y, I use both the internet and the telephone a lot. In class, all generations came together to discuss differences in thinking.

今日は休みでしたが、昔の日本語の生徒さんの仕事を手伝いました。彼女はマーケティングの仕事をしていて、Z世代の調査を行なっています。調査に協力してくれるZ世代を集めるために、私は広告を作って、東京の２つの大学に送りました。１つは私が中退した大学で、もう一つは私が通っていた高校の付属校です。「付属校」とは、同じ組織が経営している違う学校です。たとえば１つの組織が小学校から大学までの４つの学校を経営しています。付属校に行く場合は、受験は必要ありません。日本の私立学校ではよくあるシステムです。

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.

Professional Networking Explained - Episode 73

You've conquered the grammar, built an impressive vocabulary, and can express complex ideas with ease. So why does your accent still give you away? If you've ever felt stuck in your pronunciation patterns, wondering why you can't seem to break through to that native British sound, you've hit what I call the pronunciation plateau. It's incredibly common for advanced learners, and it's frustrating precisely because you've come so far. This is about understanding why pronunciation work is so challenging, why it's actually about retraining muscle memory rather than learning new information, and how to move beyond "foreign-sounding" English to make British pronunciation an integral part of how you express yourself.
