This book provides an excellent starting point for anyone interested in linguistics and its various career paths.
We cover basic concepts and real-life case studies to help you understand and learn more effectively. Written in easy-to-understand language, this book is perfect for those looking to gain a solid foundation in linguistics.

    Thank you for your interest in the Business French audiocourse by Audioacademyeu. The course is designed for beginners to slightly advanced learners and focuses on vocabulary you can use at work and in business contacts with French-speaking business partners.The course is based on contextual learning, which means that you will not only learn words, but also sentences in which you can use the words you have learned. In this course you will find a total of 1,000 words and practice sentences.The individual lessons are divided into the topics Daily Agenda, Activities, Finance, Communication, Marketing+Presentation, Production+Characteristics and Human Resources. They contain words and example sentences to help you communicate with business partners abroad. At the same time, you can use this course to refresh your French from a beginner to pre-intermediate level.What is the best way to work with the course? Choose the lesson you want to start with. Each lesson contains six tracks. First,  familiarize yourself with the actual vocabulary (tracks 1 and 2). In order to get a better grip over the new expressions  in French, in track one you hear the  French word twice.Next, you have a  word followed by a contextual sentence, again in both translation options (tracks 3 and 4).  Then you move on to complete sentences (tracks 5 and 6). ). Again, in track 5, you will hear the sentence in French twice. Once you have mastered translating sentences from English into French (lesson 6) in the time gap before the English translation, you have won. The words alone will help you in understanding the meaning, but using the mastered complete sentences will help you communicate much better.There is a script to this course available for free download at www.audioacademyeu.eu which will make your activities with the course much more effective. In its  introduction, you will find a learning guide along with helpful tips on how to make the lessons more effective and a lesson plan for you to record your learning progress. The script is divided thematically into three parts.  In the first part you will find a written version of the audio tracks you will listen to.  In the second part you will find the writing tests. For each lesson there is one test of vocabulary and one test of sentences. The key to both tests is available right after the tests too In the third part of the script you will find double-sided flashcards that you can cut out with scissors and practice even when you can't or don't want to listen. The course is narrated by native speakers - Jeff Short in English and Anne Christine Trochut. David Girten and Benjamin Jaquet in French. No AI generated voices have been used.

    Do you feel confident at work? Are there times when you lack confidence but can’t show it? The role of confidence in successful leadership is both significant and undisputed and yet organizations are full of leaders and teams who don’t have as much as they want and, even worse, are not doing anything about it. 
     
    Attempts to develop confidence are usually confined to empty affirmations and vanilla-flavored self-help books. In contrast, this book provides an evidence-based code that outlines the steps we can all take to positively shift our confidence and that of our teams. Confident Leaders by Design is for leaders at all levels looking for a rigorous yet accessible approach to confidence development. Through research and fascinating anecdotes it reveals the surprising secrets to supercharging leadership potential through confidence creation. 
     
    Alongside the theory, listeners will practically locate their confidence sweet spot and explore activities like sludge audits, confidence curves, and self-efficacy circles which will help them to immediately start growing confidence in themselves and their teams.

    While in school, we learned stuff we probably don't use today. However, language is essential to almost every aspect of the human condition. How do you expand your business beyond your continent for more sales? How are you going to express your love for that the beautiful bambina that just walked past? How do you get directions to the magnificent Colosseum? With the knowledge of language, that's how. This book contains a lexicon of some of the most used words in everyday Italian conversation. It makes use of the age-old learning techniques of repetition and rote memorization in an attempt to condition the brain for learning Italian as quickly as possible. In addition, an auxiliary feature called story mode has been included to aid the listener in a test for comprehension. And so, from the beautiful city of Milan, the city of love and all things fashionable, we present to you The Simple Way to Learn Italian.
