Hello!
2
Welcome back to Everyday English Academy.
3
Hi everyone!
4
We are so happy you're here with us today.
5
I'm Sarah.
6
And I'm Mike.
7
We help you practice real English in a natural way.
8
Yes, and if you enjoy our podcast,
9
please share it with your friends who are learning English.
10
It really helps us.
11
Thank you so much.
12
So, Sarah, how are you today?
13
I'm doing great, Mike.
14
A little tired, but good.
15
How about you?
16
I'm wonderful.
17
I had a nice morning.
18
I made pancakes for breakfast.
19
Oh, pancakes.
20
That sounds delicious.
21
Were they good?
22
They were perfect.
23
I put some honey on top.
24
Very sweet and very tasty.
25
Now I'm hungry.
26
Maybe we should talk about food next time.
27
That's a good idea.
28
But today, we have a different topic.
29
We do.
30
Today we're going to talk about jobs and work.
31
Yes, how to talk about your job in English.
32
This is a very important topic.
33
It really is.
34
When you meet new people,
35
they often ask about your work.
36
Exactly.
37
So it's good to know how to answer these questions in a natural way.
38
Should we start?
39
Let's do it.
40
Okay.
41
Mike, I have a question for you.
42
What do you do?
43
What do I do?
44
I am a teacher.
45
I teach English to students from different countries.
46
That's interesting.
47
How long have you been a teacher?
48
I have been teaching for about six years now.
49
Six years?
50
Wow, that's a long time.
51
Do you enjoy it?
52
Most of the time, yes.
53
I really enjoy helping people learn.
54
It makes me happy when a student understands something new.
55
That's a great feeling.
56
Teaching is a beautiful job.
57
It is.
58
But some days are difficult.
59
Some days I feel tired or the students are not motivated.
60
I understand.
61
Every job has good days and bad days.
62
That's true.
63
What about you, Sarah?
64
What do you do for work?
65
I work in marketing.
66
I help companies tell people about their products.
67
Marketing?
68
That sounds creative.
69
It can be.
70
I write advertisements, I plan social media posts,
71
and I work with designers.
72
Do you work in an office?
73
Sometimes.
74
My company lets me work from home two days a week.
75
The other three days I go to the office.
76
Oh, that's nice.
77
Working from home is very popular now.
78
It is.
79
I like it because I save time.
80
I don't need to travel to work on those days.
81
That's a big advantage.
82
What do you like most about your job?
83
I think the creativity.
84
I can try new ideas and see what works.
85
It's never boring.
86
And what do you like least?
87
The meetings.
88
We have so many meetings.
89
Sometimes I sit in meetings for four hours a day.
90
Four hours?
91
That is too much.
92
I know.
93
I wish we had fewer meetings and more time to actually do the work.
94
I agree.
95
Too many meetings can be frustrating.
96
So, Mike, where do you work?
97
Do you work at a school?
98
Yes, I work at a language school in the city center.
99
It's a small school with about 10 teachers.
100
Do you like your co-workers?
101
I do.
102
Everyone is very friendly.
103
We often have lunch together and talk about our classes.
104
That's important.
105
Good co-workers make work much better.
106
Absolutely.
107
If you don't like the people you work with, every day is difficult.
108
What time do you start work?
109
My first class is usually at 9 in the morning.
110
And what time do you finish?
111
It depends on the day.
112
Some days I finish at 3 in the afternoon.
113
Other days I work until 7 in the evening.
114
7?
115
That's late.
116
Yes.
117
We have evening classes for people who work during the day.
118
Do you have a lunch break?
119
Yes, one hour.
120
I usually eat at my desk,
121
but sometimes I go out with my co-workers.
122
Where do you go?
123
There's a nice sandwich shop near our office.
124
They have very good salads, too.
125
That sounds nice.
126
I usually bring my lunch from home.
127
I make a sandwich in the morning.
128
That saves money.
129
It does.
130
Buying lunch every day is expensive.
131
You're right.
132
I should try that more often.
133
Let's talk about skills.
134
What skills do you need for your job?
135
Well, I need to be creative.
136
I also need to be organized,
137
because I have many projects at the same time.
138
So, multitasking.
139
Yes, exactly.
140
And I need good communication skills.
141
I talk to clients and explain our ideas.
142
Communication is very important in almost every job.
143
What skills do you need as a teacher?
144
Patience is the most important.
145
Sometimes students learn slowly, and that's okay.
146
I need to be patient.
147
I also need to be clear when I explain things.
148
If students don't understand, I try to explain in a different way.
149
That's a valuable skill.
150
What else?
151
Energy.
152
Teaching requires a lot of energy.
153
I need to be active and positive even when I'm tired.
154
Do you ever feel stressed at work?
155
Sometimes.
156
When I have to prepare many lessons or grade many tests.
157
I feel stressed.
158
How do you handle stress?
159
I try to take breaks.
160
I drink tea.
161
I take a short walk or I listen to music.
162
Those are good strategies.
163
I feel stressed when we have tight deadlines.
164
Tight deadlines?
165
Yes, when we have to finish a project very quickly.
166
My boss says, we need this by tomorrow, and I feel pressure.
167
That sounds stressful.
168
Do you work overtime?
169
Sometimes.
170
If a project is urgent,
171
I stay late at the office.
172
Do they pay you for overtime?
173
No, not in my company.
174
But I can take a day off later if I work too much.
175
That's fair.
176
So it balances out.
177
Yes, usually.
178
What about you?
179
Do you ever work overtime?
180
Not really.
181
My schedule is fixed.
182
When my last class finishes, I go home go home.
183
That's nice.
184
A clear schedule is good for work-life balance.
185
Work-life balance.
186
That's an important topic.
187
Do you think you have a good balance?
188
Most of the time, yes.
189
But some weeks are very busy,
190
and I don't have much free time.
191
I understand.
192
My job gives me long vacations, so that helps.
193
I have two months off in the summer.
194
Two months?
195
That's amazing.
196
I only have three weeks of vacation per year three weeks
197
is still good many people have less that's true i shouldn't
198
complain let's talk about career plans do you want to change jobs in the future
199
i'm happy where i am now but maybe in a few years i want to become a marketing manager
200
so you want a promotion yes i want more responsibility and the chance to lead a team That's a good goal.
201
I love teaching, but maybe I want to teach at a university instead of a language school.
202
University teaching is different, isn't it?
203
Yes, the students are older and the subjects are more specialized.
204
But that's a plan for the future.
205
It's good to have goals.
206
Let's talk about job interviews now.
207
That's an important part of finding work.
208
Oh, yes.
209
Job interviews can be very stressful.
210
They can.
211
What's the most common question in a job interview?
212
I think it's, tell me about yourself.
213
That's a difficult question because it's so open.
214
Exactly.
215
You don't know what they want to hear.
216
How would you answer that question?
217
I would talk about my education first,
218
then my work experience, and then why I'm interested in this job.
219
That's a good structure.
220
Keep it simple and relevant.
221
What other questions do they ask?
222
They often ask, why do you want this job?
223
Or why should we hire you?
224
Those are tough questions.
225
You need to show confidence.
226
Talk about your skills and what you can bring to the company.
227
What about weaknesses?
228
They always ask about weaknesses.
229
Oh, that question.
230
I hate that question.
231
Me too.
232
What do you say?
233
You need to be honest, but not too negative.
234
Say something like, sometimes I work too hard and forget to take breaks.
235
So turn a weakness into something positive.
236
Exactly.
237
Or say, I'm learning to be better at public speaking and show that you're working on it.
238
That's smart.
239
Show that you're aware and you're improving.
240
Have you had any bad job interviews?
241
Oh, yes.
242
Once I was so nervous that I forgot my own phone number when they asked for it.
243
Really?
244
Really.
245
My mind went completely blank.
246
It was embarrassing.
247
That happens to everyone.
248
Nerves can do strange things.
249
What about you?
250
Any bad interview stories?
251
Once, I arrived 20 minutes late because the bus was delayed.
252
I apologized many times, but I don't think it helped.
253
Did you get the job?
254
No, they said they found someone else.
255
That's unfortunate.
256
Timing is important in interviews.
257
It is.
258
Now, I always leave early to make sure I'm on time.
259
That's a good lesson.
260
Let's talk about different types of jobs.
261
Some people work full-time, some work part-time.
262
Right.
263
Full-time is usually about 40 hours per week.
264
And part-time is less.
265
Maybe 20 hours or 25 hours.
266
I have a friend who works part-time.
267
She works three days a week.
268
Does she like it?
269
She loves it.
270
She has more time for her hobbies and her family.
271
but the salary is lower right yes she earns less money
272
but for her the free time is more important
273
that makes sense everyone has different priorities some people also work
274
freelance they don't have one boss they work for different clients
275
that sounds interesting
276
but also risky it is risky some months you have a lot of work other months you have very little
277
but you have freedom you choose your projects
278
and your schedule exactly my cousin is a freelance photographer he
279
loves the freedom what kind of photos does he take weddings events portraits he travels a lot for work
280
that sounds exciting do you think you could work freelance maybe
281
but i like the security of a regular salary every month i'm the same i need
282
that stability let's talk about workplace culture Every company is different.
283
That's true.
284
Some companies are very formal.
285
Everyone wears suits and ties.
286
And some companies are casual.
287
People wear jeans and t-shirts.
288
Which do you prefer?
289
I prefer casual.
290
I like to feel comfortable at work.
291
Me too.
292
At my school, we dress casually.
293
No suits required.
294
What about company events?
295
Does your school have parties or team activities?
296
Yes, we have a party at the end of every term.
297
And sometimes we go bowling or have a dinner together.
298
That's nice.
299
It helps build relationships.
300
What about your company?
301
We have a summer picnic every year,
302
and we celebrate birthdays with cake in the office.
303
Simple things like that make a big difference.
304
They do.
305
It makes you feel like part of a team.
306
Let's talk about challenges at work.
307
What's the biggest challenge you face?
308
I think dealing with difficult clients.
309
Some clients are never satisfied.
310
They always want changes.
311
That must be frustrating.
312
It is, but I try to stay professional and patient.
313
Good attitude.
314
What challenges do I face?
315
Hmm.
316
Sometimes students don't do their homework.
317
How do you handle that?
318
I talk to them.
319
I ask why.
320
Maybe they're too busy or they don't understand the homework.
321
Understanding the reason helps.
322
Yes.
323
Sometimes they just need extra help or a different explanation.
324
You're a good teacher, Mike.
325
Thank you, Sarah.
326
You're very kind.
327
Now let's talk about commuting.
328
How do you get to work?
329
I take the subway.
330
It takes about 30 minutes.
331
Is it crowded?
332
Very crowded in the morning.
333
Everyone is going to work at the same time.
334
I drive to work.
335
It takes about 20 minutes if there's no traffic.
336
And if there is traffic?
337
Sometimes 45 minutes.
338
That's why I leave early.
339
Commuting time is important when choosing a job.
340
It really is.
341
Long commutes are tiring.
342
Some people spend two hours traveling to work every day.
343
That's four hours total.
344
It's too much.
345
I agree.
346
Time is precious.
347
Let's talk about benefits.
348
What benefits does your school offer?
349
We get health insurance and I get paid vacation days.
350
How many vacation days?
351
20 days per year plus public holidays.
352
That's good.
353
My company gives us 15 days of vacation.
354
Do you get health insurance?
355
Yes, and we also get free coffee and snacks in the office.
356
Free coffee?
357
That's great for you.
358
You love coffee.
359
I do.
360
It saves me money every day.
361
Some companies offer gym memberships or language classes.
362
are nice benefits.
363
They show the company cares about employees.
364
What's the most important benefit for you?
365
Health insurance, definitely.
366
Medical costs are expensive.
367
I agree.
368
Health insurance is essential.
369
Mike, do you have a desk at work or do you move around?
370
I have a small desk in the teacher's room,
371
but I'm mostly teaching classrooms,
372
so I'm standing and walking most of the day.
373
That keeps you active.
374
Yes, but my feet get tired.
375
What about you?
376
I sit at a desk all day.
377
Sometimes my back hurts.
378
You should take breaks and stretch.
379
I know.
380
I try to stand up and walk around every hour.
381
That's good.
382
Sitting too much is unhealthy.
383
My company bought us special chairs.
384
They're supposed to be better for your back.
385
Are they comfortable?
386
Very comfortable.
387
They make a difference.
388
Do you have your own office or do you share space?
389
I share an open office with about 15 people.
390
Is it noisy?
391
Sometimes.
392
When everyone is talking on the phone at the same time,
393
it's hard to concentrate.
394
Do you use headphones?
395
Yes.
396
I listen to quiet music.
397
It helps me focus.
398
That's a good solution.
399
Okay, Mike, let's talk about the future of work.
400
Things are changing.
401
Yes.
402
More people are working remotely now.
403
They work from home or from coffee shops.
404
Technology makes it possible.
405
You just need a computer and internet.
406
Do you think offices will disappear?
407
Not completely.
408
Some people like going to an office.
409
They like the social interaction.
410
That's true.
411
Working from home can be lonely.
412
But I think there will be more flexibility.
413
Maybe people will work from home two or three days and go to the office the rest of the week.
414
A hybrid model.
415
Exactly.
416
The best of both worlds.
417
What about artificial intelligence?
418
Will robots take our jobs?
419
Some jobs, maybe.
420
Especially repetitive tasks.
421
But jobs that need creativity or human connection will stay.
422
I agree.
423
Teaching needs a human touch.
424
A robot can't replace a good teacher.
425
And marketing needs creativity and understanding of human emotions.
426
Right.
427
So we're safe for now.
428
For now.
429
Let's wrap up, Mike.
430
We've talked about so many things today.
431
We really have.
432
Let's review quickly.
433
We talked about what we do for work and how long we've been doing it.
434
We discussed our work schedules,
435
our co-workers, and our workplace.
436
We talked about skills we need for our jobs and how we handle stress.
437
We covered job interviews, different types of work,
438
like full-time, part-time, and freelance.
439
We discussed workplace culture, commuting, and benefits.
440
And we even talked about the future of work.
441
That was a big conversation.
442
I hope it helps our listeners talk about their own jobs in English.
443
Now it's your turn.
444
We have a question for you today.
445
Yes.
446
Our question is, what do you do for work?
447
And what do you like most about your job?
448
Please write your answer in the comments or say it out loud for practice.
449
For example, you can say,
450
I work as a nurse.
451
I like helping patients feel better.
452
Or, I work in a restaurant.
453
I enjoy meeting new people every day.
454
Any answer is good.
455
We want to hear about your work.
456
And remember, talking about yourself is excellent practice for real conversations.
457
If you enjoyed this podcast,

Thank you so much for listening today.
460
We love having you here with us.
461
Keep practicing, keep learning, and don't be afraid to make mistakes.
462
Mistakes are how we learn.
463
We'll see you next time for another English conversation practice.
464
Until then, take care.
465
Goodbye, everyone.
466
Goodbye.

السياق والخلفية
في حلقة اليوم من برنامج "إي فيري داي إنجليش أكاديمي"، يشارك كل من سارة ومايك تجربة حوار حول موضوع الوظائف والعمل. تعتبر هذه المناقشة مهمة لأنها تعكس واقع الحياة اليومية، حيث يكون الحديث عن المهنة جزءًا أساسيًا من التفاعل مع الأخرين. إذ يحاول الكثيرون جعل حواراتهم باللغة الإنجليزية تبدو طبيعية ومريحة، مما يساعد على تحسين قدراتهم اللغوية ويعزز ثقتهم عندما يتحدثون في مواقف اجتماعية أو مهنية.
أفضل 5 عبارات للتواصل اليومي
- What do you do? - ماذا تعمل؟
- I am a teacher. - أنا معلم.
- I teach English. - أعلّم اللغة الإنجليزية.
- I have been teaching for about six years. - لقد كنت أعلّم لمدة ست سنوات تقريبًا.
- That's interesting. - هذا مثير للاهتمام.
تعتبر هذه العبارات جزءًا أساسيًا من المحادثات اليومية عند التحدث عن المهنة، ويسهل على المتعلم استخدامها في مواقف مختلفة. يمكن لمتعلمي اللغة الإنجليزية تطبيق هذه العبارات في حياتهم اليومية، مما يسهل التواصل مع الأشخاص الجدد ويساعدهم على التكيف بشكل أسرع.
دليل خطوة بخطوة لتقنية التظليل
تعتبر طريقة التظليل في الإنجليزية تقنية فعّالة في تحسين مهارات المحادثة. هنا بعض الخطوات التي يمكنك اتباعها لتقليد المحادثات من الفيديو:
- استمع بدقة: ابدأ بمشاهدة الفيديو الكامل مع التركيز على نبرة الصوت والمصطلحات المستخدمة.
- التكرار: بعد الاستماع، حاول إعادة قول العبارات لنفسك بعد سارة ومايك، كما لو أنك تدرس "shadow speech". فكر في كل جملة وتعلم كيفية استخدامها بالشكل الصحيح.
- الممارسة: استخدم العبارات المأخوذة من الفيديو في محادثاتك اليومية. يمكنك تطبيق أسلوب "shadow speaks" عندما تكون مع أصدقائك أو خلال دروسك.
- تسجيل المحادثات: قم بتسجيل نفسك وأنت تتحدث، ثم استمع إلى التسجيل لتحديد نقاط القوة والضعف لديك.
- التفاعل: حاول المشاركة في محادثات تشبه الموجودة في الفيديو. يمكنك استخدام “تعلم الإنجليزية مع يوتيوب” كوسيلة للحصول على محتوى إضافي لمساعدتك في تحسين مهاراتك اللغوية.
باستخدام هذه الخطوات، يمكنك تعزيز مهاراتك في اللغة الإنجليزية وتحسين قدرتك على التحدث بثقة وطلاقة. تذكر أن الاستمرار في الممارسة هو المفتاح لتحقيق نتائج ملحوظة.
ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟
التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
