Arsenio's Esl Podcast

Send us a textHave you ever been caught up in your own thoughts that you're present with someone else, who's talking to you, yet you're not giving your undivided attention to them? Part of the problem is that we think four to five times faster than we speak -- about 700 words per minute. So, that remains very difficult in its own right. In today's podcast, we're going to talk about irritations and listen to three separate groups of people who just aren't listening.

Send us a textFrustrating experiences with late payers can be time-consuming and costly. There have been times that institutions here in Thailand would pay 1-12 months late. I, on the other hand, receive half payment upfront for bigger projects (over 50 hours) and the other half once the second-half begins. Now, if they don't pay, they don't get training. It's a general principle. In 2019, there was a 12th grade student who didn't pay me for the last 2 hours of teaching and I constantly had to bug her. In 2016, a university student wanted to pay at the END of the course. All of this was unbelievably laughable and a learning experience. And so now, you MUST pay before class/course or forget about it. But if they don't pay, how can you follow up? Here's a three-step process that you can adapt to your personal business + accounts payable.

Send us a textSo, some of you may be confused by the title, but most businesses in the world fail because they have air traffic controllers and pilots in flight attendant positions. As a flight attendant, although fake most of the time, they have the human connection. If you were to put a pilot in that same position, they would fail because they're very bad with people. Air Traffic Control officers? Beyond terrible...their goal is to get your from point a to point b safely. That's in.  So, if you have a pilot, who lacks empathy, in a role that they shouldn't be, it could hurt your business. In today's podcast, we will listen to a lady follow-up with late payments, and because she's not a flight attendant, she fails miserably and potentially loses out on customers with the attitude and carelessness she has.

In today's video, I'm going to show you how to use prepositional phrases to show contrast, such as using in spite of, despite the fact, etc.  Often times so many students use the common linkers such as "on the other hand, however, nevertheless," but does it bring unity to the entire paragraph?

There are different areas she needs to improve on (introduction, conclusion, etc), but I emphasized adding in some pretty awesome linkers.
