Well, you might be won­der­ing why I entitled this post, ’ Present Per­fect Paella’. Am I right? Well, I’ve got a pen­chant for sea­food, and I love Span­ish cuisine so I decided to cre­ate a new recipe.

Paella, a clas­sic Sea­food recipe every­one should know, and prefer­ably cook mixed with Eng­lish. So, this an intro­duc­tion to a series based around cook­ing Paella, the his­tory of the dish, a recipe or two, and of course some lan­guage work, new vocab­u­lary, and read­ing and writ­ing tasks. The series is still in devel­op­ment, non­the­less I thought I’d share a taste of what’s to come.

Enjoy.…

Well, my stu­dents have been request­ing this for some time now, so I’m sure they’re pleased. This is part of a three part series based on Soccer.

Why is soc­cer vocab­u­lary use­ful to learn?

Well, it’s great for small talk. Small talk is the abil­ity to make light con­ver­sa­tion, so soc­cer is a great con­ver­sa­tion topic. Why? Because the whole loves soc­cer so it’s easy to talk about, and people are nat­ur­ally inter­ested. Well, most people. Guy’s more than girls.

So, when you’ve learnt this new vocab­u­lary, and com­pleted the series “Soc­cer Talk” you’ll be able to speak with ease about soc­cer to friends, col­leagues and most import­antly new busi­ness contacts.

‘Soc­cer Talk’ is a great tool for cre­at­ing rela­tion­ships, and form­ing ties.

The first les­son is free, and the remain­ing les­son and con­ver­sa­tion class are avail­able to sub­scribers only.  Sub­scribers also recieve a com­plete gloss­ary of soc­cer terms, expres­sions and idioms, with mp3 listen­ing and pro­nun­ci­ation files, and con­stant sup­port from our online team.

So, have a listen and if you like it. You can down­load the video file only, here.

Best,

Rob
