I Podcast Secondo San Luca

Brief Intro on the new lessons

How many times have you been trapped in a boring presentation? How many times have you given a boring presentation? And why are so many presentations boring by the way?

Most people have a deep fear of giving presentations. A negative mindset, coupled with little preparation time, results in boring presentations.

However, when you learn to see the opportunities associated with giving presentations and learn how to prepare for them, you will be able to influence people, share ideas you are excited about, and motivate others.

In this Express to Impress Podcast episode, you will learn how to develop a positive mindset, plan, structure, prepare, and deliver an effective presentation. Your audience will not fidget anxiously or scan their phones from boredom, but be attentive from start to finish. Specifically, you'll discover six steps for creating a high-quality presentation that resonates with your listeners.

At the end of the episode, you'll learn definitions for English idioms and phrases.

※"Shi" means a priest or monk at temples and "wasu" stands for "running" in Kanji character. Usually, they sit back and move slowly, but in December, at the end of the year, there are so many Buddhist events, so even priests or monks have to run around. That's why we call December «師走».

Episode 19：今年やり残したこと

We all have colleagues who like to speak their minds. Perhaps we could even call these people aggressive or harsh. However, there are definitely other pieces of vocabulary we could use here. Today we're looking at the word "direct", "to speak one's mind", and "to sugar coat" something.
