We all have our dark hours when learning a language becomes frustrating and no longer seems appealing. To keep you motivated and to support you during those hours, I started recording episodes with successful learners - my subscribers and students from all over the world! 

This is the second episode of the Lingua Motivator thread of the Russian Bridge Podcast and I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Meet Marcel, a journalist and writer from the UK!

RUSSIAN BRIDGE PODCAST

Lingua Motivator. Марсель (B1-B2)

In this video, I explained why I will move to Astana without going into too much detail. I preferred slow narration and understandable language. This podcast is suitable for A2-B2 level Turkish learners. It may be difficult for A1 level students, but remember, no pain, no gain!

Why am I moving to Astana?| Episode 02

What if you want to have online lessons;
what if you are curious about people and culture from other side of the world?
I have recommended you some websites and apps I've found useful for English learners.

Build Your English Thinking

11 Websites and apps English learners should know.

This week’s episode is a little slower, a little softer — because I’ve been recovering from COVID. But even in moments of weakness, we can still learn. In this reflective lesson, I share a quiet story from my week in recovery and teach useful, real-life English you can use when you're sick, tired, or just in need of rest.

You’ll learn:

     - How to talk naturally about being sick in English

     - Gentle ways to cancel or reschedule plans

     - Useful expressions like “I’m on the mend” and “I’ve been resting up”

     - A mindfulness prompt to help you practice English through real-life reflection

Whether you’re under the weather or just craving a pause, this immersive episode invites you to slow down and reconnect — with English, and with yourself.

12月31日大みそかには、お寺で鐘（かね）ついて、人の心にある悪い気持ちを追い出しました（おいだす remove）。新年の前の日だからです。また、やりましたよ。今度は2月3日。世の中にある悪いモノ、例えばコロナとか、そういうものを、豆（まめ  bean）をまいて、家から追い出しました。2月4日から「春」だからです。日本人、ほんとうにきれい好きです。悪いモノ＝鬼（おに）を追い出す、この行事を「節分 せつぶん」と言います。でもさ、鬼も追い出されたままではないようです。最近はビジネスしてるみたい！そんなお話を少し。

Don't live in your head. BE KIND. We do not know what people are going through behind the scenes. We do not know so the least we could do, I am including myself is to be less judgmental and to be more empathetic because everyone has their own struggles.

EMPATHY IS VERY IMPORTANT
