TRANSCRIPCIÓN:
Muy buenos días y bienvenidos al PRIMER episodio de ESPAÑOL CON JOSE, el programa, el show, el podcast, ¡como lo quieran llamar! donde un servidor les ofrecerá la oportunidad de aprender, practicar o simplemente mantener su español.
Good morning everyone and welcome to this very first episode of ESPAÑOL CON JOSE: the show, podcast, however you want to call it, where I'm going to help you learn and practise your Spanish.
This is, like I said, the very first episode of this podcast, so I guess you can imagine how excited I am. My name is Jose, and I'm the founder of teacherjose.com, I've been teaching Spanish for more than a year now and the reason of creating this podcast is mainly because I actually would like to reach and help as many people as possible. I actually love creating content to help people learn my native language and, to be quite honest, I've been thinking about creating a podcast for quite a long time now. I finally managed to sort of put myself together and actually decided that I just had to get started. I really hope to create something valuable for you, something that will really help you learn Spanish in fun and entertaining way whenever possible. I love podcasts and I believe the audio format is great to learn languages, specially nowadays that we have so many ways to access this type of content. This, along with the content I regularly publish on my website –as well as my private lessons, of course– will hopefully allow me to reach much more people interested in learning my native language.
¡So! Yes, this is a podcast to LEARN SPANISH and you might be asking yourself... well, should you not be speaking some Spanish? Well, of course I will!! In fact, the only reason I'm speaking in English in this first episode is because I want you listeners to get to know me, my goals and my expectations. ESPAÑOL CON JOSE is going to be broadcasted in Spanish, of course, with only a few explanations in English, whenever I think you listeners would benefit from it. Having said that, I know many of you will find it quite challenging. This podcast if obviously aimed for those of you who already have at least some basic knowledge of Spanish. But, surely, many of you will probably struggle to follow me. And hey, I just want you to know that that's completely normal and you're definitely not the only one who is going to feel like that. Learning a language is hard and requires a lot of time and patience. You're not likely to get results soon, this is a long-term race and the key to success is actually to commit to study Spanish everyday. Hopefully, ESPAÑOL CON JOSE and the material you'll find at teacherjose.com will help you do this.
¿Y cuál va a ser exactamente el formato de este podcast? And what about the format of this podcast? Well, my view and vision for this is actually quite clear: this will depend on you, listeners. My goal is to create content to facilitate the not easy journey to learn Spanish, and hence your comments, ideas will be not only very much appreciated but also seriously taken in mind in future episodes. So please don't hesitate in letting my know your thoughts on this. Como dijes antes, si ya tienes unos conocimientos básicos de español, espero poder ayudarte a seguir aprendiendo y mejorar muchos aspectos, entre ellos la comprensión auditiva. I will try to provide the transcriptions when possible, so you have them in hand to follow the episodes if you wish. This, of course, will not always be possible, but I can tell you I'll do my best to provide them.
I am really excited about this project. Como dije antes, esto es algo que llevo postergando desde hace ya mucho tiempo y, bueno, como profesor de español me haría mucha ilusión llegar a mucha gente y de verdad facilitar el aprendizaje del español a todas aquellas personas que estén interesadas. Para mí esto es algo nuevo y un reto muy grande, y de hecho ha sido quizás debido a ello por lo que no he comenzado antes. Sin embargo, como ya he dicho, solo hay un camino y este es el camino de la acción. No va a ser el mejor podcast del mundo, eso está claro, pero sí que va a ser un podcast hecho con mucho cariño y con muchas ganas de ayudar. So, dear listeners, I really hope you find value on this episodes, I will be open to any suggestions or any thoughts you may have to make this resource as good as it could possibly be. Because this project would not have any sense at all without you,
Así que, ¡nada!, supongo que estoy es todo por ahora. Muchísimas gracias por escuchar hasta aquí y espero verles en próximos episodios. Ya saben que pueden encontrarme en teacherjose.com y también, si les parece, pueden suscribirse a este podcast para que puedan ser notificados cada vez que publique un nuevo episodio. Les deseo mucha suerte en su aprendizaje del español y nos vemos en el próximo episodio.
¡Hasta entonces!
