His cooking and his campaigning have changed the way we eat.I'm speaking about Jamie with Rachel Roddy, author of a regular column on Italian food for the Guardian.We focus mainly on how Jamie, and others, have viewed food in Italy and I ask whether this helps explain why Jamie is often seen by some people as blaming poorer individuals for what he says are bad eating habits.In this episode we mention Alberto Grandi, Carla Tomasi and Massimo Montanari.Rachel is the author of An A-Z of Pasta, among other books on food.The Full English is produced by Lewis Bassett.

2023.03.04 – 0793 – The Right Way To Use Tongue Twisters As An Articulation Exercise Tongue TwistersOnce you have warmed up the tongue, you can try some tongue twisters to put it through its paces (if you try a tongue twister before you've warmed up the tongue and you'll just end up tongue-tied and demoralised…) What do I like about a tongue-twister? It's hard to say (!), but having said that, their name is a bit of misnomer because they not only help stretch and strengthen several of those tongue muscles, but also warm up your other ‘moveable articulators', the lips and soft palate too. That aside, adding them to your routine can lead to better enunciation and expression which will help you master more complex reads. From scripts and everyday life, make a note of the words and phrases that trip you up most, then pick a twister that includes those sound combinations. Start slowly and make sure each phrase is clear and crisp, pronouncing each of the consonant and vowel sounds accurately. Then repeat the twister gradually increasing pace and exaggeration, starting again after any stumble. Aim for six twisters 60 minutes before a studio session, as well as more as part of your regular routine. An A-Z of Tongue Twisters can be found in episode 106… but these are made up word-forms that you're unlikely to encounter in real life. That's not to say they're not useful tests, but don't forget the more regular phrases that you may find yourself stumbling over (I remember “international coronavirus restrictions ”). Oh, and after you have tried a twister a few times, try it with a pencil in your mouth (or a chopstick or something similar). Hold it horizontally between your teeth, across your mouth pushing back your cheeks to just short of where they start to hurt. Then do the twister again a few times to help you concentrate on the words. Finally try the same phrase without the pencil to see how your speed, and diction accuracy has improved. Hosted on Acast.

...in which we go on holiday by mistake with author David Banning to talk about Cumbria and the Lake District on film. In a locked-down virtual wander that takes in Wet Sleddale, Coniston Water, Little Langdale and the rebel planet of Takodana, we consider the tropes of Cumbrian cinema – from 'rural escape' to zombie apocalypse; we learn about the value of Swallows & Amazons and Miss Potter to the tourist economy; we relive the moment enfant terrible Ken Russell fell in love with Lakeland; and we spend too long quoting Withnail and I.   David's book, An A-Z of Cumbria and the Lake District on Film, is available from Hayloft.

You may know Aaron by his alter ego Technically Ron. Aaron is one of the most hilarious, original and quick-witted voices on social media, with practically every tweet going viral and getting the attention of the media. His list of reasons his wife cries received nearly 50,000 RTs and was covered relentlessly in the press, so it’s no surprise Aaron landed himself a book deal – launching Lifeabet, An A-Z of Modern Existence, in 2015. Although Aaron offers lighthearted escapism and hilarious observations, there’s also a more serious side to him thanks to his well-documented struggles with mental health. Now a champion for discussing men’s wellbeing, he’s spoken about mental health for the Huffington Post, The Telegraph, The Metro and Sky News. All of this incredible work is culminating in another book that’s due to launch in 2018. We talk about how to crack a joke in 140 characters, our obsession with literal humour, how connecting online changed his life, landing a book deal and being a champion for mental health awareness. An episode that’s not to be missed.  Check out Aaron online: www.technicallyron.com

Today we are talking about grammar and I am talking to Matt Purland, an experienced English teacher with over fourteen years of experience teaching English full-time, in the UK and abroad. Matt has written and published 24 books and thousands of printable worksheets for teaching and learning English. You can find out more about him at purlandtraining.com, also follow him on twitter @purlandtraining. Some quotes from the episode: 01.21: Matt: I am excited to think about this topic, it's very important for our students and for our lessons. Daria: Do you think it is really important? How important is it for students to learn grammar when they are learning to speak English? 02.04 Matt: What you can say in one language will be totally different in the other language. That's why grammar can help to control it, to control what is said and what is the meaning of this. 02.33: Matt: Yes, we need to have grammar to help control the meaning. It's absolutely vital, it's like a skeleton of our language. 02.45 Daria: While you were speaking, I started thinking: we, teachers, really see grammar as a help. We always say grammar will help you to express yourself. 03.02 Our students often feel limited by grammar. Why do you think it happens so? 03.08 Matt: I think they may be disappointed that they want to learn a different language so they can't just simply translate what they think in their language into English because, then, because of the different grammar, they will maybe sound absolutely different. 05:35 Daria: Our task as teachers is to let them [students] know that they need to understand the language, I mean, not just translate word-by-word from their own language. 09:18 Daria: Does some grammar matter more for communication than other? I believe that there is grammar which will change your message completely if you do it wrong and you just can't do without it [for example, word order or correct prepositions] even in a very simple communication and there is some grammar, yes, it will add to your reputation if you do it right but you will still be understood the right way. 10:39 Matt: When I start teaching someone and they say they don't know anything, I start with the 5 tenses: Present Simple, Continuous, Past Simple, Present Perfect, and Future Simple. 11:42 Matt: I start with this. I think it's not negotiable. If they don't know these 5 tenses, or what are the auxiliary verbs, and what are the negative and question forms. And we work from there. ... I believe if they can understand these 5 different times and five tenses, the rest of the tenses will make sense. 12:46 Daria: Sometimes I understand that this is not the problem of remembering the things, but the problem of acceptance. They keep protesting, they keep saying: 'I don't want to remember that because I don't understand the sense of it'. 13:34 Daria: If you are a learner, it's very important to understand: this is just a different thing. And you are struggling with acceptance of it, you will not be able to learn it just cognitively. It will be very hard. 13:51 Matt: You have to accept and you have to believe you can do it. 14:18 set the goal 14:38 don't be hard on yourself 16:36 Matt: Try to find a good reference book (Matt's recommendation: An A-Z of English Grammar & Usage; Daria's recommendation: Practical English Usage by M.Swan) Key points: 1) Don't translate; be ready to use a structure from English, but not your own language structures; 2) You have to believe you can do it. 3) Remember that grammar IS important because it does change the meaning when you don't use it correctly. 4) Look for the differences in your language compared to English. 5) But don't always think about grammar - remember about your meaning. Grammar just serves the meaning.

Today's episode brings you 'Musings on the Impostor Syndrome' from your host Gill Donnell. A number of listeners have asked Gill to consider publishing some of the tips and advice from her blog and website via the Podcast show - so here it is - one of Gill's favourite subjects - The Impostor Syndrome. The term was first coined by psychologists, Pauline Clance and Suzanne Immes, in a 1978 paper, The Impostor Phenomenon In High Achieving Women.                       The authors defined it as a problem affecting women who “Despite outstanding academic and professional accomplishments, persist in believing that they are really not bright and have fooled anyone who thinks otherwise.” This episode brings some advice for combatting self-doubt and signposts Gill's free guide, An A-Z to Banishing the Impostor Syndrome, available through the website. http://www.successfulwomen.training/a-z-of-the-impostor-syndrome Head over to the website (if you are in the UK) to get a signed copy here - http://www.successfulwomen.training/books/celebr8success Please give us a review on iTunes - http://bit.ly/gillsshow or Stitcher  http://bit.ly/Stitchershow You can connect with Gill through the Facebook pages:- https://www.facebook.com/Successfulwomenpodcastshow/ https://www.facebook.com/SuccessfulWomen.training/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/SuccessfulWIB/ Twitter:- https://twitter.com/SuccessWomenTng Linkedin : https://uk.linkedin.com/in/gilldonnell Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/successful_women.training Pinterest : https://uk.pinterest.com/SuccessWomenTng/
