はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの30回目です。先週はアップロードする時間がありませんでした。少し忙しかったです。ついに30回です。前回お話しした、私がホストを務めるウェビナーの詳細が決まりました。日本時間で、6月20日の午前10時から10時45分までです。日本人の先生に向けた内容なので、スライドも会話も全て日本語です。興味のある人は、ぜひ参加してみてください。配信後はYoutubeで公開される予定なので、ライブじゃなくても別の日に見ることができます。

Hello. This is my podcast episode 30. I didn't have time to upload it last week. I was a bit busy. Finally, it's the 30th episode. The details of the webinar I told you about last time, which I will be hosting, have been finalised. It will be on 20 June from 10am to 10:45am Japan time. It is aimed at Japanese teachers, so all slides and conversations will be in Japanese. If you are interested, you are welcome to attend. It will be available on Youtube after the delivery, so you can watch it on another day other than on-air day.

今月でPatreonのアカウントを閉鎖することにしました。本当は続けたかったのですが、私生活も仕事も忙しくなってきたので、更新に十分な時間が取れません。ふりがなを表示するChromeのエクステンションを生徒さんに教えてもらったので、今後はウェブサイトでふりがなが見られるようにしたいと思います。いままでサポートしてくださった皆さん、本当にありがとうございました。

I have decided to close my Patreon account this month. I really wanted to continue, but my personal and professional life has become so busy that I don't have enough time to update it. I have learned from my students about a Chrome extension that displays furigana, so I hope to be able to see furigana on the website in the future. Thank you very much to everyone who has supported me until now.

30回なので、このポッドキャストを作ってきた思い出を振り返りたいと思います。このポッドキャストは、生徒さんのアイデアで始まりました。その時の私はまだコンデンサーマイクとオーディオインターフェイスを持っていなくて、ヘッドセットのマイクで録音していました。音質がすごく悪かったです。音質が悪いエピソード１〜４は、まだPatreonで聞くことができます。

30. ポッドキャストを振り返る

Get ready for a special treat! In this episode, I talk with Cara Leopold, an English Teacher known as the Listening Expert. We covered a lot of topics, so this will be the first of two episodes with our conversation. The main theme of our conversation was building great listening skills in another language. In this first episode, we talk about the importance of listening when learning another language, including pronunciation, and what to do when you don’t understand your colleagues in meetings.  Here are some gems from this episode:

“People might think, “I spend most of my time speaking.” But listening is actually the skill that dominates. So by that logic, the foundation for also learning future languages should be listening.”

“So what’s really helped me to get fluent in French is observing what people say, understanding them, and then copying them.”

“Notice the expressions that people keep using and then use them. You will sound more authentic because you'll be using what the people around you actually say, as opposed to what you read in a book or what you got out of a list of 100 idioms.”

Tune in to get more valuable insights from Cara, so you’ll understand more of what people say around you! The second part of our conversation will be released in the next episode.
