3 Minutes Japanese Podcast with Ken

ep. 03 - なんで日本語？

Jennifer goes on an investigation to find out the truth. Did Junior really steal his award-winning design or has Jennifer lost her mind?

This story uses words from '3000 most common words in English'. 


When Jennifer got home that day, she called her grandma. They caught up on the essentials: the move to the new city, the teachers at her school and if she liked her new bedroom. But then Jennifer got down to business.

She explained how this guy called Junior won a gardening award for most innovative design, being the youngest winner in the ceremony’s history. Jennifer’s grandma was supportive of this boy, the way grandparents are always supportive of any accomplishment, big or small. But Jennifer insisted that he was treated like an otherworldly superstar and that it didn’t seem right. 

Jennifer finally just said it. “I think Junior violated the competition rules by copying someone’s design, but I can’t prove it.”

“Oh, my dear, that’s cute, you’ve always loved coming up with adorable little theories. Do you 
remember your friend, Samantha? You two were always playing detectives. Sometimes I see her—”

“—Yes, grandma, but could you help? Take a photo of your neighbour’s garden, please. I think Junior copied her design.”

“Oh, sure thing, dear, I’ll take it after our call and send it straight away. So, tell me more about your new friends…”

Jennifer ended the call by ranting about the truth and how when people manipulate reality, they distort our ability to be authentic individuals. Her grandma kept repeating that’s sweet, dear.

Moments after the call ended, Jennifer received the photo. She compared it to Junior’s. They were identical.

It's not the language barrier! Job Interview Prep | IELTS Speaking prep.

You are looking at the effect, not the cause!

Does it sound familiar? - 

"I am unable to communicate with others"

"I feel shy&nervous starting a conversation"

"I have a language barrier"

If it seems familiar then the goal is to determine what part of you that feels/thinks this way?

You 'native' part doesn't feel shy talking to people or finding words, your 'language-learner' part does.

How was it formed and how it affects you and as the result how it affects your speaking ways will be talked about in the podcast which you don't want to miss :)

Let me know how was the recording, what you got out from it?

and in our 1-1, private mindset coaching + language coaching immersion method I use to teach people to communicate classes we'll dive deeper into  your unique case and help you succeed!
