Episode 11: Interview with Brad Hillas.

37m · Language Bits · 02 Oct 19:13

On this week's episode, I interviewed my friend Brad Hillas, who is a British-Australian teacher of English as a second language. He tells us about his studies, what made him decide to become an English teacher, his travels around the world on his bike and his experience of teaching English to kids in China.

Due to low volume on Brad's microphone, this episode has no background music.

Episode 14: Don't be afraid of making mistakes.

There are four main reasons why students are afraid of making mistakes:

1) perfectionism;

2) judgment of others;

3) defeatist mentality;

4) temporary inability.

Each one of these presents their own challenges and has to be tackled in a different way. On this episode, I talk about every one of them and suggest ways to remedy these problems. I speak in a very honest way, albeit respectful, and hope that no one takes offence.

REMEMBER: if this episode is very difficult for you, try to listen to it more than once. Repetition is key to improving your listening ability and to enhance your understanding of any topic.
