बच्चों इस कहानी से हमें ये सीख मिलती है कि किसी व्यक्ति के बाहरी रंग रूप से उसकी बुद्धिमत्ता का अंदाजा नहीं लगाया जा सकता इसलिए हमें सिर्फ इसलिए कि किसी ने खराब कपडे पहने हैं या वो देखने में अच्छा नहीं है; उसके बारे में गलत विचार नहीं बनाने चाहियें।

皆さん、お元気でしょうか。
ミア先生です。今日は　は　英語で　「がすき　です」　と　言う　文法について　お話ししたいと思います。
HELLO EVERYONE, How are you? Are you guys doing well? It’s me your Japanese teacher Mia.
So today we are going to learn about 「GA SUKI DESU」 Grammar. This is a JLPT N5 grammar point and we use this to say “I like something”.  

The structure or the word order of this grammar is pretty easy. You just need to say the noun and “ga suki desu” after that.
For example,  if you want to say “I like Apple”, 
we need to say I first, then Apple and Ga suki desu. Okay, let’s do this.
•	We know how to say I right, I is わたし(watashi)　in Japanese. 
•	And don’t forget は　particle,we need to say は（wa) particle after the subject of the sentence. 
•	So we say わたし　は　（Watashi wa） ,
•	and then we have to say apple ( apple is りんご　(ringo)　in Japanese)
•	and just say がすき　ですga suki desu 。
So It should beわたし　は　りんご　が　すきです。( watashi war ringo ga suki desu. )
See it’s that easy my friends. Okay now let’s say “I like cars”
Now we know I is わたし　は　、　and for car, we say くるま　
Okay, now it’s your chance to say the sentence. I am going to give you a few seconds.
はい、わたし　は　くるま　が　すき　です。That’s right.
Let’s do one more sentence, He likes Money.
He is かれ
Money is おかね
So how do we say “he likes money“　it’s かれ　は　おかね　が　すきです。(kare wa okane ga suki desu)
Perfect, Okay then this is a very simple grammar friends, I hope you learned it really well. Keep studying Japanese. I’ll meet you with another lesson. じゃ　がんばってね。。BYE BYE

L’as du ski
Tout est blanc. Aucun bruit. Il a neigé cette nuit. Quelle joie ! Lapin Blanc et ses amis vont faire du ski. Ils glissent vite, vite et patatras ! Tombent dans la neige.
Ils recommencent. C’est très amusant ! Cochon Rose veut en faire autant.
Il s’élance... et s’enfonce jusqu’aux yeux.
- C’est froid, aidez-moi !
Les lapins le tirent, Cochon Rose est lourd, c'est difficile ! Enfin le voilà !
Il est tout blanc ! On dirait un bonhomme de neige. Seules ses deux petites oreilles dépassent.
- Je n’aime pas l’hiver, dit Cochon Rose. Je rentre chez moi attendre le printemps !

IELTS Speaking myths. We'll 'de-myth' two together!

What is a myth anyway? A myth, a symbolic narrative, usually of unknown origin and at least partly traditional, that is especially associated with religious belief.

Where do myths come from?  Generally speaking a myth is a folklore genre consisting of narratives that play a fundamental role in a society, such as foundational tales or origin myths.

Myths also come from 'imagining' what took place and forming an idea of it and then sharing it with others as if it actually took place.

Of course it takes place in language learning and in IELTS speaking test.

We'll look into 2 myths students generally think about when it comes to IELTS speaking tests, they are:

Myth 1 -  I have to agree with my examiner’s opinion (if I don't ... )
Myth 2 -  My speaking duration was only 9 minutes long (instead of 11-14). (If it is to occur I ...)

You can finish the rest.

Do you have these kinds of thoughts running through your mind? Generally students say yes, you can be an exception but listen to the podcast just to see what not to do. It's highly recommended.

Enjoy your process and I'd love to have an opportunity to assist the development of your spoken English in IELTS speaking or a job interview preparation instead of teaching you the rulles, grammar etc.

See you in my classes.
