Welcome to the More than English Podcast! I'm your host Stephen. I'm from the UK and I have been teaching English lessons online since 2016. The purpose of the More than English podcast is not to chat about frivolous topics but rather, to discuss existential ideas and concepts that can literally change the way you see the world, and act in it, in areas such as philosophy, culture, business, tech, politics, health psychology, history, all my favourite topics! But using English that is more accessible to English learners than regular native English podcasts. Not by using basic vocabulary, but instead by speaking clearly, and highlighting advanced-level vocabulary that you can learn in every episode.

Guessing what your interviewer will ask you can be difficult, but you can always count on the question, “Can you tell me about yourself?” That means that you can be well-prepared for at least one question! When you deliver a great answer at the start of your interview, it will give you confidence and impress your interviewer.

In this episode, you will learn the three goals you need to achieve in an interview to be successful. Then, you’ll learn about what the interviewer is looking for when they ask, “Can you tell me about yourself?” You’ll also hear three well-crafted answers to the question and tips for how you can answer the question.

If you want to increase your English vocabulary, continue listening to the end, where you’ll hear definitions of five idioms and phrases that came up during the episode.

We love to proudly wear clothes with a cool fashion label - it says something about who we are. However, we shouldn't read too much into a fashion label, in other words, imagine the brand name defines us literally, particularly if it has a ridiculous name! I did see a printing mistake on a tshirt once, that said "Foodball" instead of "FooTball"!
