Add colour to your language - training Free

The sound of English bewitches my senses and the rhythm of English enchants my mind and the accent steels my heart.  I am growing a garden called "Eazy Foreign Languages" that offers 6 foreign langua ges in Vijayawada.   The garden is full of exotic flowers - French, German, Spanish, Italian and English. Japanese is still budding. I am the chief gardener garnering the fragrance of flowers to garnish my poems, stories, conversations songs and the like.  I am a drummer and fifer when I train people on English fluency and accent. very rarely people come to learn accent, until then I sit in the emptiness cursing the cold breeze. Then.. suddenly comes a sweet singing bird that trills new melodies into my heart. 

                                    
This is my recent educational video "Add color to your language."  I made this video cd for Spoorthi Videos. This CD  offers English conversations plenty of idioms and phrases with clear explanation of English idioms in Telugu.  The Cd is about speaking English fluently with good pronunciation and accent. I wrote 200 English conversations but only 50 conversations were selected for this 2 hour Cd. The Shooting is over and the editing work is in progress. Soon It will be available in the market. I am presently training people on English, French and German.

Training Program with VROs

The gentlemen in the picture are VROs. I trained them on Communication skills in G.Konduru near Ibrahimpatnam. The program was conducted with the  auspices of the MRO in his office on Saturday the 14th April. The training session was aimed at improving their communication skills. I began the program with Chinese whispers. It is a small game in which the trainer passes a small piece of information to the first member of the group. He passes it to the second member. The second member passes to the third member. The message is passed on till it reaches the last member. The last member passes it back to the trainer as he understood. The problem in any group is that the message gets distorted as it passes. I gave to the first member of the group a message. I wrote it on a piece of paper in Telugu and gave it to the first member.  the message is " రోడ్డు మీద తప్పు మార్గం లో వెళ్ళే వాళ్ళకంటే సరైన మార్గంలో వెళ్ళే వాళ్ళకే ఎక్కువ యాక్సిడెంట్స్ అవుతున్నాయి. Naturally I got the distorted message. The message I got from the last person was " You can avoid accidents if you go in the right route. That's how the cookie crumbles. I showed the slip to all members of the group. They all laughed. It was a hearty laugh. That's how the program began. I focused mainly on their day to day needs of reporting. The program is all about giving and taking information.
1. How to send brief messages using cell phone.
2. How to understand the messages sent by high officials.
3. Oral communication in Cell phone.
 What is the good of IT if we do not know how to communicate. Lunch was provided in the MRO's office. Mr. Bikshu is a courteous man. He is an exemplary officer who offered this program to all his VROs. with foresight and dynamism. That's why his team always stands first in reporting. I thank him through my blog for the opportunity he gave me. All the participants in the program paid utmost attention and really guided me well. They extracted what they wanted. It has given me immense satisfaction.

Life in London


Life in London
London  gives a wow not only to the visitor but also to the writer and the reader who writes or reads about it. Many people wrote about it many times. Yet, each time it made a difference. This interview focuses on the education system, social life and culture in U.K  Mr.Sravan from Vijayawada who studied in London speaks on Life in London. People in England, like other parts of the world hardly need to blow horns of their vehicles but still accident rate is very low. In India sparing the horn is wrong. you can blow off the brains with your horn. Horn is not only expected but also demanded. In UK people fly off the handle when horn is blown at them. They may gift the blower a slap. In India we often experience loud talk talk in small hotels, especially at tiffin and meals sections but people in England are silent in public places in contrast with the noisy people in India. In London or the U.K for the matter if the customer is not satisfied with the food served, if he expresses his dissatisfaction the hotel management will not charge money. Here in India once I said the same thing to the hotel management when the food was bad.  The hotel management picked up a quarrel with me. Time is precious in London. They respect time and follow it. Any function or any program in the UK starts on time. But here in India we wait for the last man, the late comer, as if his time is more important than that of all others who came in time. We need to ask ourselves a simple question " Is the time of the late comer more important than those who came early? Education in England is very practical. They assign the work to the students and the students are expected study and write on their own. Learning by heart or copying or downloading from net attracts serious warning and punishment. If two students write alike the professor will not accept. Compare the lakhs of students in India who read the same guide with students in the U.K. Mr. Sravan said that  he was made to stand before a committee(as we see in movies) and expiate for using internet stuff. Minors (children until 18) are taken utmost care of by the government. Even nail polish is not sold to them. They have the complete protection from the law. Even scolding them is a serious offence. Sometimes Mr. Sravan and friends have seen minors begging when they were on the way to the university but they were scared of scolding  them.  Adult beggars in London are different from those in India. They don't beg showing their poverty or misery as Indian beggars rather they show their art. Some beggars play the guitar while others paint on a canvas set on easel.  There is grace and dignity, silence and puntuality, dignity of labour and respect for customers in the UK. What they don't have is plagiarism and we have it here plenty.

The trace of good culture

Prabhakar Venkata
Mr. Prabhakar Venkata who works in Meghalaya in a small town near Shillong extended a telephone interview last night from 9.00 pm to 9.52pm. I thank him for sharing the information and narrating his experiences. The interview began like this: 
Poolabala: Sir, thank you very much for sparing your time and calling me. Where are you from?  How and when did you go to Meghalaya? 
Prabhakar :I hail from Mopidevi, a small village in Krishna district. I went to Meghalaya in 2004. I work in a construction company as a manager. To facilitate easy reading the gist of the long telephonic interview is given for you.
It is a place where Woman can move freely at midnight without a man’s assistance. Woman can walk through the darkness of midnight all alone. She can even work at a wine shop at night and can reach home safe.Woman is safe. Society is secured.  NO movies, No exposing. No crime, No thefts, No cheating, No corruption, No politics at least. There is not a single statue of  any leader. There is no greatness attached to anyone. All are equal.  It  is a place where woman is respected and free from male domination and acid attacks-  no blade attacks no love sick students. No dirty cinemas. No feticide, No dowry.  A woman can marry with just 50 paise. She offers 50 paise in betel leaves and that completes a marriage. Certainly Meghalaya is beyond compare. In many aspects it is far better than the other parts of India especially south India. It is a different place.  Don't say "Are you dreaming?  Is it a story? Come on don’t be silly be practical. It is impossible."  Maybe it is impossible in Andhra because the day has long since past where we had three murders and six rapes a day.  Now we are going steady with six murders and a dozen rapes each day. Meghalaya is entirely different from India.  Yes may be they are tribals. But they have a good culture, a culture that allows them to live with certain values and communion.  A commoner can sit beside the Chief Minister. No long Convoys. Just one or two cars in CM’s convoy. They live as one community. The headman in villages takes decisions for the welfare of their community. Individuals don't take decisions. They still abide by them. Marriages are strictly with in the community. Meghalaya thrives with a true culture of their own.

జర్మన్ పిల్లల అమ్మ ప్రేమ

మన దేశంలో ఎంత మంది తల్లులు ఈ పని చేయగలరు  ?

చాలామంది పిల్లలు తమ తల్లులని   గొప్ప మాతృ మూర్తి గా వర్ణించి  దేవత అని పొగుడుతూ ఉంటారు.  ఎందుకని అడిగితే తన పిల్లలకోసం ఎన్నో కష్టాలు పడింది అని చెపుతారు.  కేవలం తన పిల్లలని ప్రేమిస్తే నే ఏ తల్లీ గొప్ప మాతృ మూర్తి అయిపోదు. అందరి పిల్లలని తనపిల్లలలా భావించుకునే మాతృ మూర్తిని మాత్రమే గొప్ప మాతృ మూర్తి అంటారు. ఆ విషయం చాలా మందికి తెలియక తన పిల్ల లకి తన కుటుంబానికే చేయడమే గొప్ప అని చెపుతుంటారు.    తన పిల్లలకి చేయడం కొంత వరకు బాధ్యత  కొంత వరకు స్వార్ధము  అని చెప్పాలి.  పొరుగు వారిని  ప్రేమిస్తే అదే గొప్ప. మరి అదే వేరే దేశంలో పిల్లలని అనాధ పిల్లలను ప్రేమించి వారి కోసం తమ జీవితాన్ని త్యాగం చేస్తే ? వారిని ఏమనాలి ?  అటువంటి వారే ఈ జర్మన్ అమ్మాయిలు. 


Magdalena Naussbaumer and Verena Gmeiner  came to India from Germany. I heard that they are in the city.  I heard their story too and was very eagar to meet them and talk to them It was afternoon. Actually I went there to speak in German with them.   They were in a recording studio making a video. I went up to the studio at 4.00 PM. It was summer. There was no A.C.  I was sweating. They finished their video and came to me. I started speaking in German. It was a moving story. soon I forgot in which language I was speaking. I don't know whether I was speaking in German or English. The focus shifted to the story.


These Austrian  girls Magdalena Naussbaumer and Verena Gmeiner who are working as teacher in Germany have come to India during vacation to serve HIV infected children. They served the children for a few monthes and went back to their country as they have to join their jobs.  They came to know that one of the children they served had died. When they came to know about the death they resigned their jobs and with the money they have they came back to India. They have done what a real mother can do. How many indian mothers have this remarkable quality of love?

Verena was working as a German teacher when she came here in Jan 2012. She met Magdalena only after coming to India. Both loved the children equally well at the Daddy home orphanage. "Tears were running down to see the small children  in dire conditions suffering for love and care. "We can not afford to miss them" they said. Verena's voice quivered when she spoke. When Europeans can come and serve our children in India why can't we.

I have met them to speak in German for a while I love German language. Of course I teach German language in Vijayawada. But the incident has changed my mind that I forgot German language. Their love of humanity is greater than my love for German language.  



I am basically a die-hard fan of Languages

I have not missed the slightest opportunity of learning or practicing a language. I am constantly on fire to learn new languages. It is made me a polyglot ( a person who speaks many languages). These are the books I have written on foreign languages. Though I teach German language in Vijayawada I am also concerned about Social work. After meeting these girls I was inspired by their work. I started teaching English language in Vijayawada for the poor children without charging.I traveled far away places to teach French language. I took French Classes in a small village called Darsi near Addanki just out of love for the language. 




 Eazy foreignlanguages in Vijayawada offers the best French training in Vijayawada. French classes with all fun and all practice. The French teacher is French language expert and a polyglot who speaks six foreign languages. He is a renowned foreign languages author and the first ever French novelist from Andhrapradesh and also from India. Eazy foreign languages offered French classes in Vijayawada to students from various parts of the Andhrapradesh. Students keep coming from other states of India as well.   you can type "French classes in GuntuEazy Foreign Languages" " French classes in Tenali" in youtube to find the videos of the students from these places. ultimately the performance of the student convinces you.



The Paranormal

             
I had a random talk with Mr. Siva Vani who is the director and script writer of  TV serials such as "మాతృదేవోభవ" "ఓ పాపా లాలి"  "ఓ యోగి ఆత్మ కథ". The discussion was very interesting and informative. He is a man of deep spiritual thinking and meditation. He has Psychic powers. This post will give you clear idea with real life stories. 

Do you know what is Paranormal? Paranormal is something that can not be proved by science. God and Ghost are paranormal. Do you know what is clairvoyance? Well it is Special vision(Divya Dristi) But do you believe in it? If you don't you may read this to get to the bottom of the astounding secrets behind this special power, which is possible only though a spiritual process called Dhyana Yoga. 

Mr. Siva Vani  has acquired Clairvoyance through strenuous yogic practice. According to him all human activities of past can be heard and seen with Clairvoyance simply because they are stored in the form of audio and video signals in the ether. In a deep meditation stage called Dhyana Yoga we come in contact with those signals. Thus it is possible for yogis to see any thing in the past. He mentioned the examples from history. 


An American Psychic Edgar Cayce had used Clairvoyance - perceiving information hidden from normal senses through extrasensory perception. Cayce was born on a farm in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, in 1877, and his psychic abilities began to appear as early as his childhood. He was able to see and talk to his late grandfather's spirit, and often played with "imaginary friends" whom he said were spirits on the other side. He also displayed an uncanny ability to memorize the pages of a book simply by sleeping on it. These gifts labeled the young Cayce as strange, but all Cayce really wanted was to help others. 



A young couple in America had a strange problem. The problem might look ridiculous to others but it was a big problem to them. The husband was impotent and his beautiful wife was promiscuous. She had affairs with many men in a club in which she was a member. It was dragged out into the open by the women whose husbands fell in the spell of this beautiful lady. It was a big stigma on the family of the young couple who approached Edgar Cacye.  Edgar Cacye who was a psychic perceived the reasons lurking behind their problem. The husband was an army officer who devoted most time to battles and spent away from wife. He used to lock his wife with chastity belt until he returned home.  His beautiful young wife endured great suffering for want of sex. Her unfulfilled desire was noted on her subconscious ( sookshma deha) and as a result, to quench her thirst she took birth as a beautiful lady and picked up affairs. The reason for the husband's impotency is also explained. As the husband, in his previous birth, spent most time in wars, neglected his desire, his subconscious has taken it and in his next birth he became an impotent.  This is only a reference to the existence of Psychic powers.

A TRAILBLAZER

He defied the dynamics of academics, challenged the school of out-moded education. Adjured the sordid ways of rote learning. Yet he out shined many of his pals, soared high in academic performance. Yes Kedarinath is not like the other guys.His didn't believe in regular attendance to school.He seldom went to school and often practised Kungfu and chess. His poor attendance was not an obstacle for his academic excellence. He gave his life to sports. He was an inter college chess champion in his college days. Still he sustained the spirit of education. When we met two days ago I was thrilled to hear him say so many things.  He has the acumen into foreign languages like Spanish. He has excellent command on English.There is a man in him with untiring spirit and quest for  achieving something big. He went to Madras and several places to work there. He worked in MNCs including Harly Davidson and BPOs, acquired beautiful English accent. He changed 15 jobs in course of time. He was after self satisfaction and perfection. He came back to Andhra, got a job five government jobs. Now he is working in Punjab Sindh Bank at Vijayawada. But he said" I don't want to settle in this job" Yes he is preparing for IAS. With real  interest and concentration any student can reach the top. Dawn to midnight slavery is not required. Kadarinadh is the right example for real learners.
