NOVEMBER COMPETITION!
We all know how difficult it can be to stay motivated when learning languages, so this month, English In A Teacup is holding a little competition for its listeners. The winners of the competition will get a personal shout out on the podcast and will also get to decide the next topic for Season 2 of my podcast coming out in December. 
To join, send me a message on italki and I will send you the form to fill in. 
In this week's episode of English In A Teacup, we will be continuing with the topic of inversions as well as learning how to write letters.  For students preparing for advanced-level exams (CAE, CPE, IELTS, etc.), it is important to know about inversion and how to use it in the writing sections. To help us with the subject is our fine English lady, Miss Finesstocrat, who will be writing her own letter to a travel agency to complain about her holiday from hell. How did she get on? Let’s put the kettle on and find out!

みなさんはドイツの９ユーロチケットを知っていますか？
これは、９ユーロで１ヶ月間ドイツ国内のバスや電車などの公共交通機関が乗り放題になるチケットです。今、ガソリン代が高くなっているので、ドイツ政府が車に乗らなくても人々が移動できるように始めました。6月から8月まで利用することができます。

私は先週このチケットを使ってデュッセルドルフに行って来ました。私の家からデュッセルドルフまでは片道4時間ほど掛かります。通常なら往復で50ユーロ以上掛かると思いますが、このチケットのおかげで、たった９ユーロで往復することができました。ちなみにこのチケットでは新幹線のような高速列車を利用することはできません。

ところで、みなさんは「乗り放題」の意味が分かりますか？「乗り放題」の意味は決められた金額を払えば、何回でも乗ることができるという意味です。つまり、１ヶ月乗り放題のチケットは９ユーロ払えば、１ヶ月何回でも乗ることができるチケットです。
みなさんは「食べ放題」に行ったことがありますか？これは食べたいだけ食べることができるという意味です。居酒屋やファミリーレストランには「飲み放題」のメニューがあります。これは飲みたいだけ飲むことができるという意味です。

ちなみに、「やりたい放題」という言葉もありますが、これは「他人のことを気にせずに自分のやりたいようにやっている」という意味です。「あなたはいつもやりたい放題だね」と言われたら、それは「あなたがわがままだ」という意味です。

みなさんは乗り放題や食べ放題、飲み放題などを利用したことがありますか？
それがお得だと思いましたか？
よかったら、私のレッスンに来て教えてください。

I want to speak English; this is the wrong goal!

Do you want to be more motivated to achieve your English-language-related goals but sometimes feel demotivated?

Do you feel the desire to achieve the goals faster but see yourself at a slow pace?

And do you believe there are methods to help you?

If you'll turn to psychology and look at solutions for your English language-related goals, you'll find something I am here to help you gain—the understanding of secondary gains!

In psychology, a secondary gain is when you benefit from a problem. It’s when you receive advantages from unwanted conditions, circumstances, or limitations. In other words, you benefit from not overcoming problems. 

It doesn’t mean the problem is positive, but the benefits of having the problem support you in keeping it rather than solving it.

Secondary gains are guides to help you get unstuck. They’re an invitation to understand the advantages you receive from retaining problems instead of solving them.

In simple terms, you crave attention and accidentally injure yourself. As a result, people care for you. You get what you want (attention), but at the expense of what you don’t want (injury).

Is it now clear to you? What are your secondary gains from not following through on your language learning goals that you benefit from?

This might be a game-changer for you in learning to communicate in English confidently and fluently.

Give it a go and allow yourself some space to think and resolve some uncommon issues. Good luck.
