"Invest in yourself." This is something we often hear from motivational speakers but we probably also heard that from our teachers, parents and friends. Perhaps, it is because of the fact that YOU are your best investment, whether it is with knowledge or skills. In this podcast, I will be sharing three principles of personal development.

Привет! Dans cette petite histoire  je parle de la difficulté de choisir un cadeau. J’utilise beaucoup d’impératifs. J’utilise la méthode TPRS comme d’habitude. 

В ноябре у папы Кати день рождения. Ему будет 60 лет. Катя не знает, что ему подарить, потому что у него много хобби и интересов.  Поэтому она попросила родственников и друзей дать ей совет. 
- Не дари ему деньги! Папа очень хочет научиться играть на гитаре. Подари ему гитару! – сказала мама. 
- Папа любит читать фантастику. Подари ему книги братьев Стругацких. Но не дари ему подписку на электронную библиотеку. Ему нравится читать только бумажные книги, - посоветовал брат.
- Твой папа очень активный. Он никогда не сидит на месте. Подари ему туристическую путёвку на Байкал! - предложили друзья.
Все идеи были очень хорошие. Как трудно выбрать идеальный подарок близкому человеку…

Vocabulaire
день рождения – anniversaire
дарить/подарить подарки - offrir des cadeaux
советовать/посоветовать - conseiller 
предлагать/предложить - proposer 
подписка на электронную библиотеку - abonnement à la bibliothèque électronique

Landing your dream job hinges on more than just qualifications and experience.  The ability to communicate effectively can be the tipping point between an "interviewee" and a "new hire."  Here's how preparation in business communication can propel you towards that coveted job offer:

1. Research is King:  Knowledge is power, especially when it comes to the company you're targeting.  Research their mission, values, and current projects.  This not only demonstrates genuine interest, but also allows you to tailor your responses and showcase how your skills align perfectly with their needs.

2. Craft Your Elevator Pitch:  Imagine a concise, impactful summary of your skills and experience.  This "elevator pitch" could be your first impression, so practice delivering it with confidence.  Focus on achievements and quantifiable results, leaving a lasting impression on potential employers.

3. Anticipate Interview Questions & Prepare Answers:  Common interview questions are a dime a dozen.  Research them online and prepare clear, concise responses that highlight your strengths and accomplishments.  Practice out loud to refine your delivery and ensure you come across as articulate and well-prepared.

4. Dress for Success:  First impressions matter, and your attire speaks volumes.  Research the company culture and dress accordingly.  A professional appearance conveys respect and demonstrates your commitment to the role.

5. Body Language Matters:  Beyond words, nonverbal cues significantly influence how you're perceived.  Maintain eye contact, project confidence through good posture, and avoid fidgeting.  These subtle signals communicate professionalism and enthusiasm.
