Listening is really important to hear the pronunciation of words, because spelling is often very confusing in English.

Listen to last week's podcast about the "U" sound for words written with "OU": https://www.italki.com/en/podcast/episode/cawtvs1tf05wdkmzgz9t5g

What is a mindset coach and what does he/she help people with?

A life and mindset coach is someone who helps people overcome their mindset blocks, boost their confidence, and gain clarity. 

For example: my coaching client wants to overcome their old, limiting money beliefs. Someone might say things like, “I don’t believe I can earn more money than I already do” or “it’s hard to earn money.” These are hardwired beliefs many of us grow up with - patterns of thoughts that we don't even recognize and are aware of it's influence. 

These kind of thoughts 'push' us in the unwanted direction - where we dislike being BUT we are taking there unconcsiously because we aren't aware of what's going on in our thoughts / beliefs!!!

You help my clients to reprogram their mindset and reframe their thoughts so that they can get past beliefs that are keeping them stuck. 

In this recording you'll hear me speak about your first stage to prepare You before your interview and don't take it lightly - it's a game changer!

Understanding Concessive Clauses in Spanish and English

In Spanish, the mood (indicative or subjunctive) in concessive clauses depends on whether the action is factual, non-factual, or counterfactual. For example, the conjunction "aunque" (although) can be used with both indicative and subjunctive moods depending on the context.
Example in Spanish:
Indicative: "Vendré aunque no tengo ganas." (I will come even though I don't feel like it.)
Subjunctive: "Vendré aunque no tenga ganas." (I will come even if I don't feel like it.)
In English, concessive clauses typically use the indicative mood. The conjunctions "although," "even though," and "though" are commonly used, and they don't change the mood of the verb.
Example in English:
"Although he doesn't want to, he will come."
"Even though she is tired, she will finish the work."
So, while Spanish requires a choice between indicative and subjunctive based on the nature of the action, English consistently uses the indicative mood in concessive clauses.

TO BE, OR NOT TO BE POLITE. THAT IS THE ETIQUETTE QUESTION

ETIQUETTE IS A SET OF COMMONLY KNOWN RULES OF PERSONAL BEHAVIOUR WITHIN A GROUP OF PEOPLE OR A SOCIETY AS A WHOLE.

At work, etiquette is a code that governs the expectations of how people should and should not behave at work, although there isn’t a universal agreement on what exactly is acceptable or not. It is the responsibility of the company and managers to develop a code and to set expectations in the workplace.

Most of us also have a set of unwritten rules that govern our family lives that are known to all members of the group, so the concept of etiquette is not new to us. We are familiar with how our behaviour affects and influences others, and so it is important to behave correctly, or face the consequences.

At work and in business, there are a set of rules or conventions that differ from one country to another, however, politeness and showing courtesy to others is universal. In some cultures, courtesy and showing respect is paramount to your success in business, at work and in job interviews.

Other cultures value directness, which may be taken as a rude gesture by someone from a different background.

🗺️ Diálogo: Pidiendo Indicaciones en un País Nuevo ✈️

David: Disculpe, ¿podría ayudarme? Es mi primera vez en esta ciudad y estoy un poco perdido.

Lucía: ¡Por supuesto! ¿En qué necesita ayuda?

David: Estoy buscando el hotel "Sunset Inn", pero creo que tomé la calle equivocada.

Lucía: Ah, sí. Está cerca, pero caminaste en dirección contraria.

David: ¡Oh no! Sabía que algo estaba mal.

Lucía: No te preocupes. Solo regresa hasta la avenida principal y gira a la derecha.

David: ¿Cuántas cuadras debo caminar?

Lucía: Aproximadamente tres cuadras. Luego verás un parque y el hotel está justo al lado.

David: ¡Perfecto! ¿Es fácil reconocerlo?

Lucía: Sí, tiene un letrero grande y una fachada amarilla.

David: ¡Genial! Muchas gracias. ¿Y por casualidad hay algún buen restaurante cerca?

Lucía: Sí, a una cuadra del hotel hay un restaurante de comida típica. Es delicioso.

David: ¡Me encanta probar comida local! ¿Cómo se llama?

Lucía: Se llama "Sabores del Mundo". Es muy popular entre los turistas.

David: ¡Suena perfecto! ¿Necesito hacer una reserva?

Lucía: No creo que sea necesario, pero si vas en la noche, puede estar lleno.

David: ¡Muchas gracias por toda la ayuda!

Lucía: ¡De nada! Disfruta tu estadía en la ciudad.

David: ¡Lo haré! Que tengas un buen día.
