In the episode "How to Remember Any English Word," Teacher Smith emphasizes the importance of feeling confident while speaking English. They suggest that confidence is key to remembering words easily and provide a simple way to boost confidence instantly. Teacher Smith illustrates the concept by comparing it to rescuing a little girl from a pool, highlighting the idea that the value you bring to a conversation is more significant than any fear you may have.

The episode advises against focusing too much on fears, such as pronunciation or translating phrases, during conversations, as it can lead to forgetting words. Instead, Teacher Smith encourages listeners to focus on listening actively, as simply being present in a conversation is valuable. Additionally, they reassure listeners that making mistakes is natural, even for native speakers, and emphasize the importance of relaxing and letting speech flow naturally.

Overall, the episode offers two key points for speaking confidently: valuing participation in conversations and embracing imperfection. By prioritizing these principles, listeners can boost their confidence in speaking English.

요즘 환경 문제에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 일회용품을 줄이려는 사람들이 많아지고 있습니다. 카페에서는 개인 컵을 사용하는 손님에게 할인 혜택을 주고, 마트에서는 비닐봉지 대신 천 가방을 사용하는 고객이 늘고 있습니다.

어제는 친구와 함께 등산을 갔습니다. 처음에는 길이 평탄해서 쉽게 올라갔지만, 정상 근처에서는 바람이 세고 길이 미끄러워서 힘들었습니다. 그래도 정상에서 본 경치는 정말 아름다웠습니다.

No somos literales (continuación)

You've been working for weeks on a project and finally get it finished, but someone else takes the credit — what could be more annoying?

Nothing, according to a new workplace survey! It found that people who steal your credit are the most annoying colleagues to work with.

Jobs site Kickresume asked almost 2,900 people around the world about the things that annoy them at work, and they had a lot to talk about!

Around 85% of people said they've worked with an annoying person.

And annoying colleagues don't just make people roll their eyes — they actually affect productivity too. In fact, almost six out of 10 people said that having annoying colleagues has a big effect on their productivity.

Thirty percent of people have a problem with colleagues who complain too much, while the same number get annoyed by those who don't respect personal space — they always stand a little too close!

Colleagues who steal other people's food from the fridge are also a source of annoyance.

Another common annoyance is bosses who micromanage — watching every move you make.

So what can we do about annoying behavior at work?

Many people say they'd like to talk to the person about it, but most don't have the courage.

Instead, 32% of people said they just try to stay away from the person who is annoying them. But that's not always easy, especially if they're stealing your credit — or your lunch!

Experts suggest speaking to a manager about workplace problems.

But here's a question: how do you know if you're not one of the people annoying your colleagues yourself?
