This episode is all about job interviews and we will be looking at the most typical questions as well as the best words and phrases to use in your answers. To help us with this topic, Miss Finesstocrat will be telling us of her traumatic experience in her first ever job interview.
After her monologue, I will explain the key vocabulary and grammar of the topic covered, so that you will be able to use them in your own speaking and writing with the same finesse and confidence as Miss Finesstocrat herself.

You can also follow us on Instagram where we will be providing videos, quizzes and new vocabulary as supplement material for every episode in our podcast.

ENGLISH IN A TEACUP

ENGLISH IN A TEACUP: JOB INTERVIEWS (B2-C1)

ドイツの田舎では庭に鳥小屋を置いている家をよく見かけます。
これは鳥を飼うためのものではなく、野生の鳥にえさをあげるためのものです。
私の家の大家さんもいつもひまわりの種を鳥小屋の中に置いています。
時々そこにえさを食べに来ている鳥を見ることができます。
私の家の庭には大きな木があり、窓から木に止まっている鳥を見ることができます。
先週、ドイツの家の庭で見ることができる鳥の種類を描いたポスターを買いました。私はドイツに来るまで野生の鳥にあまり興味がありませんでした。でも今はこのポスターを見ながら、「今日はこれを見たよ」とか「この種類はまだ見たことがないね」とパートナーと言って楽しんでいます。

日本で鳥といえば、カラスやハトですよね。カラスはゴミをあさったり、ハトはベランダにふんをしたりするので私は正直嫌いでした。
皆さんは鳥を見るのが好きですか？

You are looking at the effect, not the cause!

Does it sound familiar? - 

"I am unable to communicate with others"

"I feel shy&nervous starting a conversation"

"I have a language barrier"

If it seems familiar then the goal is to determine what part of you that feels/thinks this way?

You 'native' part doesn't feel shy talking to people or finding words, your 'language-learner' part does.

How was it formed and how it affects you and as the result how it affects your speaking ways will be talked about in the podcast which you don't want to miss :)

Let me know how was the recording, what you got out from it?

and in our 1-1, private mindset coaching + language coaching immersion method I use to teach people to communicate classes we'll dive deeper into  your unique case and help you succeed!

PS. The books name is "The New Psycho-Cybernetics: Maxwell Maltz".
