This podcast is dedicated to the cultural differences that I faced when I moved to France and the gap between spoken French and the one taught in school as second language.

 2- Magical Candy - Present Tense

Dear James,

As you know, we have been working on the new perfume that we are launching in April and we are unsure about some of the packaging details. We have seen some of your creative work in the sales department and we think you have a very good eye for detail.

Do you have some time before close of business this Friday to sit down with us and talk through some of our designs? We would truly appreciate your advice on this. It shouldn't take longer than two hours of your time and we would be happy to clear it with Patricia, your department head, if necessary.

Best regards,
Sarah Ford
Head of Department

The Habits of Professionals Growing Into Strong, Confident English Communicators

An email request for help. IELTS LISTENING 

People have been building boats for at least 10,000 years, making them one of the oldest types of transportation. They're a big part of history, which is why there are many expressions about boats.

If you have the same problems or are in the same situation as someone else, you can say you are "in the same boat." This expression comes from the fact that people on the same boat are all affected if the boat gets into trouble while at sea.

For example, if your friend told you they had lost their job, and you had also lost your job, you could say "Looks like we're in the same boat — I lost my job too!"

If a person is doing something too much or in an extreme way, you can say they are "going overboard" with it. This expression comes from the 1600s when boats were mostly made of wooden boards, and going overboard meant falling into the water.

So if your friend kept calling the same company to ask for a job, you could say, "Don't go overboard! If you keep calling them they won't hire you."

If someone misses out on something, especially because they were late or too slow, you can say they have "missed the boat." This expression refers to being late to board a boat that departed at a specific time.

So your friend might say, "I just want to make sure I'm the first person they call when they're hiring. I don't want to miss the boat!"

こんにちは！Atsushiです。
今日も2つ続けて録っています。

さて、今回は機会があると成長する、について。
最近、発表や応募書類の準備をしていて感じたことについて話します。

この前も少し話しましたが、私は今、日本語教師養成講座、というものを受けています。問題なければ、この9月で終わります。そして、日本語教師の資格が取れます！その為の模擬授業(もぎじゅぎょう)、留学生がいる学校に行って、授業の練習をしました。

それから、別の話ですが、今、アジアの国で日本語教師として働ける仕事を見つけたので、それに応募する為の書類を作り、昨日、出しました。

発表や応募、というような機会があることで、考えをまとめたり、人に聞いて教えてもらったり、期限までに必死に準備をしますね。

私は、これがとても良いことだと思います。
採用、不採用という結果は私にはコントロールできません。
それは相手が決めることですね。

でも、成果、この準備の中で、自分で気づいたことや、身についたことは、自分の中に残りますね。

こういうことを繰り返して、人は成長するんだと思います。

会社にいる時は、結果の方に目がいくことが多かったですが、会社を辞め、人から評価されることがなくなりました(なくなってないけど)人から見られることを気にせず、自分がどうしたいかを大切にできることはとても幸せなことだと思います。


ちょっと話がそれてきましたが、いろいろ挑戦すると、うまくいってもいかなくても、準備したことは自分の中に残るよ、ということです。

ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！
