Lektion wird erstellt...
1
Let's go.
2
I'm going to cook it.
3
Good morning.
4
I've just jumped into a meeting room because I have a doctor's appointment in a couple of minutes.
5
I figured I'd just take it from work, save to me the trip of going in, and also I don't have to wait around in a doctor's meeting room, which is always a plus.
6
It's actually a beautiful Friday morning, as you may have seen on my commute in.
7
I realized the hack with winters here is you just have to be well prepared.
8
Do you have the right thermals?
9
Do you have the right gloves?
10
My favorite hack is having these pocket warmers.
11
They're these nifty little electrical hand warmers.
12
You just turn them on.
13
They have three settings.
14
They've literally gotten me through negative 12 degrees in Korea, negative 5 degrees in Norway,
15
and I swear by them and they can get me through a one degree morning in London.
16
Mornings are so cozy especially when the sun's coming in the UV is like virtually zero
17
and you can soak up the sun guilt-free and everyone's all rugged up and cozy so I love it.
18
It's shaping up to be a pretty good Friday so I'll take you along.
19
If you're new here I'm Elasha and I moved from Australia to London a little over two years ago.
20
I work in cloud growth and sales at Microsoft and this is typically what a Friday my life looks like.
21
Fridays in the office are usually pretty quiet.
22
During the week meeting rooms can be impossible to get
23
but I had lots of choices today given a very quiet office
24
and I I managed to slip into one this morning for
25
a quick virtual doctor's appointment before jumping straight into my morning meetings.
26
Following lunch, I settled into a solid work block.
27
I work as a conduit between Microsoft and Microsoft Azure reseller organisations, who each have a number of customers at various points across their cloud journey.
28
So a big part of my role is helping enable them to grow more.
29
I've been out and about a lot over the past couple of weeks just out visiting clients.
30
So this work block was really to tie up any loose ends to make sure I can start Monday strong.
31
Fridays are also when we have our pod or team syncs.
32
And it's a great chance to catch up with my direct team, share updates and fill each other in on what we've been working on.
33
I'm
34
going to
35
go to the next video.
36
Oh, my God so
37
it's terrible lighting in here
38
but this is going to be my favorite spot in the office to watch the sunset
39
or lack thereof for sunset because I think the sun has already set the days are
40
so short now it's basically sunset by mid-afternoon fridays are the time to wrap up any loose ends
41
and action any actions that slip through the cracks during the week and I feel like
42
I've done a pretty good job at getting some emails out
43
that have been sitting in my inbox and also doing my expenses Which is extremely boring to do, but it's got to be done I also keep getting this notification for some training
44
that I have due at the end of this month So i'm thinking now that i've made myself a tea.
45
I might get to that training.
46
It's actually really funny We have this global standard training
47
that we have to do Whoever's created it from a microsoft education standpoint kudos to them
48
because it's honestly so funny The training itself is in the form of a TV show.
49
So there are different seasons for every year.
50
There are the same characters that reappear in the seasons that are following their own character arc.
51
I was going to say customer journey.
52
That's not it.
53
It's so funny because I've been doing this training for a few years now.
54
And the characters have evolved as I've evolved.
55
And some of the conversations they talk about have evolved.
56
Like, you know, when I joined, AI probably wasn't as big of a deal as it is now.
57
So now there's a bigger focus on security and compliance.
58
It's really interesting and I'm actually quite looking forward to it.
59
It's definitely not one of those trainings that I just skipped through.
60
Because let's be honest, there's always some of those.
61
Microsoft runs on trust and our success depends on each of us taking action okay i hope this isn't confidential
62
oh no no no this isn't good oh no oh no
63
bang on This is the most dramatic thing I've ever seen.
64
I'm hooked.
65
This is where I'll be for the next half an hour.
66
By the time I'm sending out these last couple of messages, the sun is already long gone.
67
There's something
68
so satisfying about closing all my tabs on a Friday evening
69
it just feels symbolic like I'm officially wrapping up the work week.
70
Just a few final touches and then I'm off to dinner with friends,
71
which in my books feels like the perfect way to end a work week. so

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
