Thanks.

Hi Pauline.

Thanks for your availability and willingness to help us.

In my work I had many problems over the past days.

Hello Mona,Sjunior,Pablo and all,

I have difficulties finding like-minded teachers on facebook who are
willing to devote their free time interacting with learners via voice
or video chats. Take me for example,I seldom use voice chat with any
learners individually because if I do,I cannot multi-task my posts and
comments in at least 5 groups I am involved with on facebook.

I myself prefer interacting via comments on Facebook or messages here
in this group. I have gotten to know quite a few of you,Pablo,Ed (the
moderator) ,Anurag,Eduardo Rocha,Rafael
Oshiro,Mikhail,Andre,Simone,Vera,Jason
Chan,Serdar,Charles,Ali,Alberto,Marcelo,etc this way and we have
developed quite a strong bond to write freely to one another and have
in-depth discussions on quite a few diversified topics during the last
3.5 years...

I used to hold Skype group talks (voice chats) about 3-4 times only
and strictly during week days as I have a family with 2 little sons
and it isn't suitable for me to talk on the weekend.

Since I asked Ed to make me admin yesterday,from now on this exchange
of messages will be more intensive and hopefully productive !!!

I would love to see any of you taking ther initiatives to post
anything that interests you :
Learning tips,songs,videos,poems or articles to enhance our language
skills will be highly appreciated !!!

Let's motivate one another and think and act positively !!! ;-)

Great day to you all !

Pauline

I can't do all those activities at once, and so do you. But that's what I've doing lately. :( when you try so hard, you get lost again. But you know what? The question is who to keep yourself motivated while you can't find any one who support you? :( Or even join you in your long journey.

important to you ?

What was the fondest memory of yours ?

What do you think you have gained from this group ?

As for those who are new,please let the rest of us know what you

Hi all,

I tried twitter some long time ago. Because of its text nature, it's
not much appealing I guess. If someone doesn't have FB, twitter might
be a good alternative. I think twitter is a very good option to get in
touch with interesting people and links related to English learning.

Hi there,

Have you ever tried to use twitter to improve your English? Well, I
used to follow the learning English sites and everything relating to

Taking the idea of voice thread, I think we could practice ourselves a
lot using images and videos to describe what we see.

Re: [ESL Podcast] Question Of the Week : What made this group so special that you are still around ? ;-)

Hi there,

Well, I agree with Pablo. It's hard to find anyone who interested in being active learner. If you don't have much time for a voice chat or finding people on line, you can use sites like "voice thread " where you can make a group and everyone can join you by recording their comment. I see it efficient. But as you said, it's hard to find anyone interested in. :(

However, if you guys interested in, please let me know. Let's see if it work out.

Regards.

Dear all,

I have been a member and a volunteer teacher here since April 2008.

Looking back at all these years,I cannot help wondering why this group
has been unforgetable to me and several of you,as well ...

Would you like to share with us all old and new why it has been
important to you ?

What was the fondest memory of yours ?

What do you think you have gained from this group ?

As for those who are new,please let the rest of us know what you
expect to have while spneding your time here ...

Thank you in advance and let me tell you all who responded again it is
great to be back !!!

Good night and see you soon !

Hello Mona,Sjunior,Pablo and all,

I have difficulties finding like-minded teachers on facebook who are
willing to devote their free time interacting with learners via voice
or video chats. Take me for example,I seldom use voice chat with any
learners individually because if I do,I cannot multi-task my posts and
comments in at least 5 groups I am involved with on facebook.

I myself prefer interacting via comments on Facebook or messages here
in this group. I have gotten to know quite a few of you,Pablo,Ed (the
moderator) ,Anurag,Eduardo Rocha,Rafael
Oshiro,Mikhail,Andre,Simone,Vera,Jason
Chan,Serdar,Charles,Ali,Alberto,Marcelo,etc this way and we have
developed quite a strong bond to write freely to one another and have
in-depth discussions on quite a few diversified topics during the last
3.5 years...

I used to hold Skype group talks (voice chats) about 3-4 times only
and strictly during week days as I have a family with 2 little sons
and it isn't suitable for me to talk on the weekend.

Since I asked Ed to make me admin yesterday,from now on this exchange
of messages will be more intensive and hopefully productive !!!

I would love to see any of you taking ther initiatives to post
anything that interests you :
Learning tips,songs,videos,poems or articles to enhance our language
skills will be highly appreciated !!!

Let's motivate one another and think and act positively !!! ;-)

Great day to you all !

And I would like to add that for me, writing is a time consuming task.
If we just could talk and interact, we might get the most of our time.
What do you think?

Thank you,

Hi All,

What I feel I need is a group to study or just to talk. But it's hard
to find people with the same interests, time zone and the same free
time. For instance, I have some time and tranquility just on weekends.
Thank you.

Pablo

Re: [ESL Podcast] Question Of the Week : What made this group so special that you are still around ? ;-)

oppps. I made a mistake. I should say "how to keep yourself motivated" instead of "who". Sorry, typo mistake. ;)

Hi sjunior,

How are you doing? It's a really good question. I've been asking myself this question for about a year now. :D And now I've got a friend have the same problem. He do not know where to start. Well, I can say that I partly have found my way. Sign up for sites that offers free email lessons or news letters, be a member of any forum that interests you and leave a comment and wait for replies, use YouTube videos, songs with lyrics, chat rooms, Fb groups for learning English, follow learning English sites on Twitter, start your own blog and write down what you've learned, ... should I continue? ;) There more and more that you can do. But now I am asking myself, does that work? o.O

I can't do all those activities at once, and so do you. But that's what I've doing lately. :( when you try so hard, you get lost again. But you know what? The question is who to keep yourself motivated while you can't find any one who support you? :( Or even join you in your long journey. Maybe it just me. ;) I am not good in making friends or maybe in choosing them. However, sjunior, don't let anyone put you down and don't let yourself down either. Even if it looks so complicated sometimes, we still have to try and we should keep trying and trying till we find our way.

Best regards,
Mona.

回复： [ESL Podcast] A video of Steve Jobs on the Rules of Success

2011-12-11T19:24:00.000-08:00

Hi Pln and all,

well, this link brings me to another video,which is a commencement speech at Stanford given by Steve Jobs. and the most impressive words of this speech are "you've got to find what you love."

so maybe there are a number of factors that will make us successful,but I think the most one is personal preferences ,and based on it,we have the motive force to go forward. Though the road ahead will be uneven,and there will be setbacks and false starts,we'll keep going and writing down the drama of life.

Perhaps I am not as lucky as Jobs who can find what he loved to do early in life, but I will keep looking with all matters of my heart. And I think, something what I have learned may be not important for practical application in life, but they will be connected in the future.It is like stringing the pearls together,just using time as the string.

have a good time

Vera

Dear all,

When the ex-C.E.O. of Apple passed away,I saw on facebook a post
saying there were 3 apples in the world ; one was eaten by Adam in the
bibile,the second hit Issac Newton on his head and the third was half
eaten by Steve Jobs.

His legacy will last for so many more decades and here is a video of
him talking about the rules of success.

I would like you all to take a look and listen to it as many times as
you can,then tell me what are the rules of success according to him.

[ESL Podcast] Re: it's nice to meet you Vs it's nice meeting you.

2011-12-07T14:25:00.000-08:00

Daily English has become less formal and the rules have become less
strict,too.

I would say when you use present tense,they are both for opening
greetings
while when you use past tense,they are both for ending the
conversation...

Best Regards,
Pauline

Hello Chaya,

I don't have any podcasts on facebook. I am kind of forced to be
admins by friends known or even unknown to me and so far it has
mounted up to 5 groups .

If you would like to know the groups,here you will find the links
below :

Global English Forum :
http://www.facebook.com/groups/friendsquotes/?notif_t=group_activity#!/groups/117190961658014/

Success For All :

Grammar Club :

World Quotes:
http://www.facebook.com/groups/friendsquotes/?notif_t=group_activity#!/groups/friendsquotes/

( One called ESL Discussion Group is created by a British English
teacher teaching in Greece : )
http://www.facebook.com/groups/friendsquotes/?notif_t=group_activity#!/groups/143803842323216/

Which is the name of your group if I may ask,too ?

Best regards,
Pauline

If anyone is still around and waiting for any interactions,please make
some noise by replying to this message and I will try my best to bring
this group alive !!!

Great weekend and best wishes to you all !!! ;-)

[ESL Podcast] it's nice to meet you Vs it's nice meeting you.

2011-12-06T12:22:00.000-08:00

Hi there,

I read that we use " it's nice to meet you" for greeting and "it's nice meeting you" as a farewell. Is that true? and the same question for

"It was nice to meet you" Vs " It was nice meeting you" ?

Waiting for your reply. Thanks in advanced.

Re: [ESL Podcast] Re: How to revive this group I used to have so much fun in ???

2011-12-05T16:29:00.000-08:00

I can't understand why so many Chinese people desire to access facebook since chinese government has blocked it and many chinese SNS websites like Renren and Kaixin are popular in China ,as I know ,most chinese who usually access foreign websites by bypassing GFW are only want to read some news which blocked in China.But actually ,those people who usually bypass GFW are skilled in english,and many english websites like bbc,cnn or even gmail are not blocked in China, so i mean ,as long as people are skilled in english .they can read news or join the discussion via those english websites that are not blocked in china.

what do u think ...

Hello Marcelo,

Great to receive some feedbacks since I posted my last message !

As I know,Facebook and you tube are blocked in China and some other
countries in the world temorarily or permanently.

If you can have aceess to facebook,you may search for me in Global
English Forum(open group),English Discussion Group,Success For
All,World Quotes,English Learning,Grammar Club(closed group meaning I
have to add you upon your request)
as an administrator there.

For you Vera,Jason,Charles,Jane,Jasmine or anyone who has trouble
logging on to facebook,I will do as I used to do as a volunteer
teacher to post one question of the week for us to engage in
discussions in order to practice our English writing...

If there are more who need such an exercise,I will invite other fellow
teachers on facebook to help us all !

Let's revive this old group and have some fun again again,too !!!

Great week ahead to all of you around the globe !!! :-)

Best regards,
Pauline

Re: [ESL Podcast] How to detect lies?

2011-02-22T06:28:00.001-08:00

Ok, I try, I know I should, but.... I can´t answer so seriusly :)

1 How to detect lles?
A. Call Dr House to interview. Everybody lies.

2 When do people lie more,on the phone,in the mails or in face-to-face contacts?
A. My mom used to say that phone is the house of lies. But she doesn´t know email yet.

3 Which lies more,men or women?
A. Women. But I´m a man, then you never know the truth! :)

4 When to be alert,when people talk more or less?
A. When they talk more. More to listen, more to forget.

5 Is white lie considered a lie?
A. What is a "white lie"? A lie told by an angel, something like that?

6 Why do men or women lie? Are their reasons or motifs different?
A. I think the reason is always to get something they want or to disguise something they don´t want to show.

See ya

Re: [ESL Podcast] How to detect lies?

2011-02-19T20:24:00.000-08:00

To the answer of one of the 6 questions about lies: how to detect lies
If you look at someone's gestures and get the habit of doing it then it will be easy to read their face movements, and get used to the common reactions or body movements they would usually do but don't do it if they are lying .
Getting to know someone not only by what they like or do, but how they contract their face muscles when they smell something good or unpleasant is a way to decipher if they are lying , since their sudden reflex to answer is usually by lifting up the eyebrows but instead they frown them then you notice that there is something wrong with how commonly they would react.The same thing is with what they say but do. if there is not parallel in their words and actions then you could start getting clues to find out lies.
Their body says a lot too, hence, if is stressed or uncomfortable, but if their mood is incongruous to their actions then there is something wrong in that scene.For example, if they say they are happy when their face is sad or they walk slouched when is not usual then they are saying the opposite of what they say ;that is a lie.
By learning to read friends' gestures and postures well, gives you the ability to figure out if they are lying to you and not only people you may know with time but first time introduced persons as well.

[ESL Podcast] Bond/Bondage

2011-02-15T15:17:00.000-08:00

In Global English Forum,we started to have a GEFever for acrostic
poems...

Even someone like me who'd never written any poems before have written
6 at least so far and it's so much fun and so easy to do!;-)

For example,everyone wrote a poem of love for Valentine's Day and mine
was done within a few minutes' time.

H-Handed my arms to the one who captured my heart

A-Anquished by the unknown path we were about to embark

P-Patiently let him lead the way

P-Problematic realities kick in now and then

Y-Years gone by when sparks run dry

(Now look horizontally: H-A-P-P-Y)

V-Vanished are our dreams and desires

A-Anticipating what future may bring

L-Lending our heart to another chapter together

E-Electrified by our long-waited dream-come-true of a home to call our
own

N-Nesting alongside are our two cutest curious cats

T-Tension and passion spiced up this love and hate relationship of
ours

I-Irresistable are our intense and strong unity for 2 decades

N-Never will I let go of this sometimes painstaking bondage sometimes
sweet and comforting bond

E-Ending awaiting us down the road

(V-A-L-E-N-T-I-N-E)

D-Dancing our way with joyous stride

A-Along we go on this long and winding road

Y-Yes is what I shall say if he utters those 3 words next time when
our eyes meet and hearts intwined...

(D-A-Y)

Belated Happy Valentine's Day wishes
from Pauline

Good night and good luck!

Anyone would like to join me to write an acrostic poem for fun?:-)

Answering the last question - it is very well to look at the mirror
with the internal peace without any disgust, that is s way I'd like to
keep on.
See you,

Hi everyone

Vera´s definition why people lie was perfect to me. I add just one note: much times they lie just because they are bad, only.

About second one, trust is proportional to time and importance. The trust in someone who make some work to me is differente to trust in someone that gonna married to me. In fact, I do not trust easily.

And 3), I am think last months (you know, don´t you, i`m thinking so much LOL) that in some environments we simply CAN´T be honest all the time, or we won´t survive. I Know people that are honest and polite but... I always suspect.

See ya

Hi Pln and all,

about "why do people lie?" ,  I remember when I was young，my mum didn't allow me to eat choclate for bad tooth,so I always tell her I never eat despite the tell-tale chocolate paste all over my mouth. so I think ,wether we r children or adult, mostly，our reasons for lying are same: to get out of trouble,to make ourselves better in eyes of other,to protect ourselves and for personal gain. and in addition，I find people who lie more have many friends,of course,not all of this friends are his/her favourite,but we could not deny a detail that his/her higher order thinking.

for" how to decet lie...",i think ,if a person who is lying to u,he/she will avoid making eye contact. Err,this is only my experience，hoping everyone freely exchange ideas.

good night to all,

Vera

Hello Kysber,Misha,Ed,Charles,Simone,Rebeca,Briana,Andre,Shan and all,

Long time no see!I hope all is well with familair and unknown faces here!

First of all,congratualtions on 800 members since the creation of this special and friendly group!!!:-)

Though I seem to come less often,it still holds a special place in my heart...since Ed,Pablo,Misha,Simone,Briana,Claire,Andre,Charles,Jason,Jane,Vera,Ali,Edward,Serdar,Immanuel,Kysber and so many more I can't name all have been my dear old friends...

Misha and I met in where I have been living for the last 4 years last September for as short as 2 days...;-)

Kysber is one unique ex-student of mine though we seldom keep in touch...

Back to the topics,

Well,ss a curious cat like myself,I apply as many approaches as I can when it comes to sounding someone out.

When you keep an open mind,your intuitions can tell you a lot in a split second if you can trust the person you meet in less than 3 minutes' time.

Don't get me wrong,it isn't just 'judging a book by its cover',but on second thought,if you don't know that person well,how is it possible not to judge him/her by his/her appreance,outfit,personal belongings/accessories?

Then while exchanging small talks,how not to form your opinions of him/her when he speaks with an either soft or firm tone of voice,an energetic or lazy way of speaking?

Then how not to know if he/she is either introvert or extrovert if he/she doesn't look you in the eyes and avoid eye contact?

According to recent surveys,an interviewer decides in the first 5 minutes if the candidate will be hired and the rest of the interview is for him/her to find justifications as how to persude his fellow managers why he/she decides to hire such candidate...

I found one article from Polish "Business English" monthly magazine and began using it as class materials for different business groups titled "LIE DETECTOR" in section,Consumer Skills.

The quesions asked in my thread here have to go back to the very ancient and solid quesion:

1 Why do people lie?How to detect lies from others' appearance,outfits,voices,handwriting,written e-mails,etc???

2 How much do you trust yourself and others?

3  Do you think you can be honest/open as well as polite?

The above mentioned are what I asked my students in business English group to think about before our next week's class...

Would you dare to tell me your own theories?:P

Good night to you all,

Pauline

Hi,
Could you explain more about SRUM method and particularly about
possible usage it in the process of management, which was mentioned by
Dipodidae (how to rule not being a head) ?
regards,
Krysber

[ESL Podcast] Re: What tells you more about a person's personality:

2011-02-07T13:28:00.000-08:00

Hello everyone,

I must admit that some of my feelings are very sad - cause we often
(too often !) assess another person by his appearance, voice or so
called the first impressions. There are in many cases very misleading
factors, so why should we do it ?

Actually, some of above mentioned features can say something, e.g
neglected clothes may show a little about personal attitude to the
taste of order and cleaniless, but we can not forget there are only
external qualities - they are only covering.
Finally, I agree with an Dipodidae opinion - extremal situations are
able to say more about real people personality than the best
psychological tests or the most complicated handwriting analysis.
Regards,

What tells you more about a person's personality:
1 their appearance
2 their voice
3 their attitude
4 or something else?
How useful do you think the following are for judging a person's
character?
1 personality tests
2 handwriting analysis
3 star signs/horoscopes
4 interviews

My opinion is that, behavior in emergency could say all about people.
Words, opinion in different questions tells me about my opponent.

Let's me avoid judging) Everybody has right to have awful or kind
character.

Very interesting. I've remember good quote of Al.Einstein that says:

impossiable. Not the exact quote but in my words.
Do you try answer to all questions of children?) It could be good
training to your mind and very useful.

To make discussion lively, I'm not agree;)

laziness moves the world.

Mika, same if you don´t want be a leader (head of your team) it can be an inevitable destiny if you have leadership vocation. Anyway looks that in your job people does not have roles. For example, in a soccer team every player have a specific function with its responsibility and importance (employer), they know exactly what he have to do for the team (company). This allow him to train and focus on what he should do best (roles and taks). They know what his co-work do and sometimes he can change position if necessary. Everyone do his best for the team win the game.

I think that in a company is the same. Maybe something practice you can start to do is simply organize yourself making a list of all task you have to do and put it in order of priority (you can do a dashboard post it see attach with my own dashboard).

hi eslpodcsast, I think personality is achieved many components , like - hair, clothes and body language. Now the way we speak, specially English as a second language is another way to express our personality, even within an accent makes it even interesting since we can add a dash of personality when speaking the language , at the time, to speak it we shape it the way we can because for some of us the native accent for English does not from any innate form . so what do you think ?
thank you.

Heh, all people speaks on one language(English), but somethimes they
can't understand each other. Maybe someone of you know counrties
Russia, Ukrain, White Russian(Belarus). Here what I want to say: we
speak on different languages, but we can understand each other.
Well, come back English. Is it true way to get up level of
understanding of words - expand your vocabulary?

And to make it even more difficult, there are different pronunciations between American English and all the varieties of 'British' English! (England, Australia, South Africa, etc.)

Hi,
In my opinion it is not an age which makes learning difficult.
Obviously, when you are young your world is free from many concerns
thay are inseparebly connected with adults life. Therefore your brain
is cleaner and birighter, but you are not very aware of your real
possibilities, the best methods to get new knowledge etc. it comes
with time. However referring to the topic - as far as i am concerned I
do not treat English as difficult language. The biggest problem for me
is the necessity of perfect listening, cause there are many
experssions which sound in the same way (or almost the same) - bed -
bad, bear, coal - call, we can multiply other examples.
Regards,
Krysber

Thank your for advice. You are right. It's more comfortable to read
from big screen. And devices with e-ink are better.
