This is our first podcast ever!
Starting something new or different is challenging, this affected me just as it affects our students. I stopped myself from starting a podcast for many reasons, all of which I had to overcome to get going.
Technophobe
I’m not very good with technology, and it takes me a while to learn something new. Facebook, Instagram, our website, blogging, and online lessons are all regular things in my life now but they are a relatively new thing to me. I am still not 100% confident doing all the online stuff but compared to how I was; at best, I’m competent and at worst, I have to start again at the beginning when I make a mistake.
Now, Masami and I are trying something new to us; podcasting. Of course, there’s a lot of technological stuff that I’m not very good at that I need to learn. It will also take me time, lots of mistakes, and redoing things before I can get it right; just like anyone learning something!
Perfect first time?
Will my first podcast be perfect first time? No, I don’t think so, I’m already confused about a few things and I’m worried about breaking our website! Why bother? I think Masami and I have got a really good English Communication Programme and I need to get that message out.
Our job description
Masami and I are the: English facilitators, Managers, Promoters, Bookkeepers, Web-designers, Advertisers, bespoke lesson creators, English assessors, English learners, online course givers, classroom cleaners, caretakers, content creators, administrators, and more for our business. Some students even say we are a “power spot.” Whew!
I would rather just help people with their English Communication, however, how do they know we exist? This is why we try new things. The benefits of finding students for our programme are good for us! We know so much more than before and it is a reminder of how it is for students trying something new.
Making and overcoming my problems
In the podcast, I talk about the problems of my creation and how I overcame them. I talk about procrastination, thinking something is too difficult to do, fear of making mistakes, and wanting perfection.
Please listen to my podcast to hear what stopped me from getting started. I hope it will help you in some way.
