Chinese New Year

“A family member that I'd really love to work with in the future is my cousin John, who is a few years older than me, and now has his own successful marketing company. I’m now in my final year of studying media marketing, and John has always been there for me, anytime I needed some advice or help with my studies. I guess you could say he has been like a mentor to me.




I actually had the pleasure of working with him during my summer holidays last year, which was a really amazing experience, and I got a lot of great hands-on working experience . 




As I'm studying media marketing, John's marketing company would be a perfect fit for me to put my years of study to use. I’m especially interested in social media marketing, and would love the opportunity to specialise in this niche market. I have also discussed this with my cousin, and he is also very interested in breaking into this market in the future.




If this could happen in the future I really would be over the moon with happiness, and it would be like a dream come true. I think it would be an amazing opportunity, as well as a challenge that I would relish. I think I could learn so much from my cousin, as well as working hard to prove myself. I also think having him take me under his wing would be a great start to my working life.

Describe a family member you would like to work with

¡Hola! Welcome to Spanish from Zero, a podcast for people who are just starting the amazing journey that is learning Español. Today we’re gonna practice talking about occupations. 

Here’s how it usually goes:
• ¿Qué haces? (What do you do?)
• Yo soy… (I am…)

Note that in Spanish we tend to NOT use articles (a, an) when describing someone’s job title:
Yo soy profesora. (Literally: I am teacher)


The other thing we have to keep in mind whenever we’re describing someone is their gender. These are the most common word endings when it comes to occupations:

• Gender neutral endings:
ISTA: el artista / la artista, etc.
NTE: el estudiante / la estudiante, etc.

• Feminine vs. Masculine endings:
O / A: el secretario / la secretaria, etc.
OR / ORA: el profesor / la profesora, etc.


Okay! Now that the explanation is out of the way, let’s practice a little bit. I’ll say a couple of sentences and you need to figure out if I could be describing a man, a woman, or either one:

Es arquitecta 🏗️
Es programador 💻
Es analista 📉
Es presidente 🏳️
Es veterinaria 🐾
Es electicista 🔌
Es asistente 📋
Es dentista 🦷
Es fotógrafo 📷
Es mecánico 🔧
Es doctora 🩺

Dear Russian language students and teachers!

Here is another 1-minute audio for your better understanding of a common situation as doing grocery shopping in a supermarket. It comes in handy when you are in a Russian supermarket where staff usually don't speak English or any other foreign language.

Good luck!
