Learning and understanding how we can work together better, build better teams, and have better relationships with our team mates is key to being the best professional possible.  If you're listening on Apple podcasts please don't forget to leave a review, it really helps me out! 

For non-native English speakers, and people who speak English as a 2nd language, (second language speakers), working in teams can be challenging. Listening to what your colleagues have to say, and also expressing your own ideas, making as few mistakes as possible, and creating great sentences can be a challenge that many people find really difficult.

In this podcast we're going to be listening to several tips for improving your teamwork and collaboration skills, we'll look at the vocabulary and business English that can really help us to use those tips, then at the end we'll have a short quiz to see how much of what we talk about you can remember.

O patinho feio

Era uma manhã de verão, e uma pata havia botado cinco ovos. Ela estava aguardando impaciente a chegada de seus filhotinhos.
Assim, quando o primeiro ovo se partiu, mamãe pata ficou muito contente. Logo os outros patinhos também começaram a nascer. Mas havia um ovo que demorou para se quebrar, deixando-a ansiosa.
Passado algum tempo, o último filhote finalmente conseguiu sair do ovo. Mas quando mamãe pata o viu, ela não ficou muito satisfeita e exclamou:
- Esse patinho é muito diferente, muito feio. Não pode ser meu filho!
- Ah! Alguém te pregou uma peça. Disse a galinha que morava ali por perto.
O tempo foi passando e o patinho feio foi ficando cada vez mais feio, cada vez mais diferente de seus irmãos e cada vez mais isolado. Os outros animais zombavam dele, o que o deixava entristecido e angustiado.
Então, quando o inverno chegou, o patinho resolveu partir. Ele andou bastante e encontrou uma casa, assim, resolveu entrar pensando que lá talvez alguém gostasse dele. Foi o que aconteceu. Havia um homem que o acolheu, assim, o patinho passou esse tempo muito bem.
Mas, esse homem tinha também um gato, que um dia levou o pato para fora de casa, deixando-o sozinho e triste novamente.
O patinho saiu caminhando e depois de muito andar encontrou um lugar muito bonito, com um lago. O pato viu um cantinho aconchegante e foi até lá descansar. Nesse momento, algumas crianças que estavam por perto, perceberam a chegada de uma nova figura. Elas ficaram encantadas e disseram:
- Vejam, temos um visitante!
- Nossa! Como é lindo!
O patinho não entendeu de quem as crianças estavam falando, mas quando ele se aproximou do lago e viu seu reflexo na água, avistou um maravilhoso cisne. Então, ao olhar para o lado, ele se deu conta de que outros cisnes também moravam ali.
Dessa forma, o patinho descobriu que na verdade, ele era um cisne. Desde então, ele passou a viver entre seus iguais e não ficou mais angustiado.

Welcome back to another episode of Streetwise English. I'm your host, Carl. I'm an italki American English tutor. Today I want to talk about technical aids for learning languages. And specifically, I want to talk about headphones. So one of the most important things for improving your fluency in any foreign language is to listen to content in that target language.
So for me, I'm currently studying Spanish and trying to maintain my Chinese, so I don't forget it. So what I like to do every day is listen to podcasts. Now you can listen while you're doing other activities like washing your clothes or washing the dishes or exercising at the gym. You can listen to podcasts while you're on the treadmill. 

But the problem is headphones can smash your ears and make your ears uncomfortable. So what I like to do is use bone conduction headphones or earphones. It's a type of headphone that doesn't actually cover your ear canal. It goes in front of your ear and kind of sits on your face. Um, kind of behind your sideburns if you're a man, right in front of your ear and the sound transmits a vibration that goes into your skull and into your ear and your brain can hear the sound just from the vibrations going through your bones. And so they are called bone conduction headphones. I swear by them. And I use them every day. I have a pair which is charged with a USB C port.

So there are many different kinds of options on the market, but I like the ones that use a USB C port to charge them because I don't have to worry about losing the appropriate proprietary charging cord. Instead, I can just use any USB C charging cord to power up the headphones. 

So another advantage of using bone conduction headphones is that while you're wearing them, you can hear sounds outside of the content that you're listening to.
So for example, say, I'm running, I'm jogging and listening to my podcast which is in Chinese while I'm jogging. ( Text limit )
