INTRODUCTIO
N
Greeting
Say hello using a common expression.
Introduce yourself (mention your full
name and role in the presentation) and
what you are going to talk about.
● E1: Hello, my name is Julian.
● E2: Hello, my name is Luisa
● Hello, welcome to the viewers in our
WOSS program, today we have a new
special guest that comes from far
away.

to be able to accompany you.

CONTENT
Introduction ● E1: Welcome Zubin, it's a pleasure to
have you here.
Welcome viewers to your talk show. ● z: Thank you very much for the
Introduce yourself as the host and invitation!
introduce your guest(s). ● E2: how are you today?
● Z: Very good, very good.

Body ● E1: What do you currently do?

Introduce your guest(s) by asking and
answering questions about:
▪ Basic biography about the
person: name, nationality, age,
profession, background,
influences, etc.
▪ Professional contribution (social
work, philanthropy, influence,
etc.) to your professional field.
Next, open a space for discussion in
which together you must:
● Z: I'm an engineer.
● E2: For how many years have you
been an engineer?
● Z: For more than 6 years
● E1: Hey!, but they told us that you had
been a lawyer, is that true?
● Z: The truth is, for more than 12 years
I have practiced my career, in fact I
loved her.
● E2: And what do you currently do?
● Z: I'm a software engineer at Google
● E1: incredible, incredible.
● E2: Currently you look very young,
how old are you?
● Z: hahaha maybe, I'm 53 years old
● E1: and where do you live?
● Z: In the United States, San Francisco,
it's close to work
● E1: What do you feel with what you
are doing today?
● Z: Programming was almost magic to
me (“writing text and making
machines follow your commands is
something with unlimited power”), but
it didn't look as smart and
mathematical as the programmers.
● E2: Could you tell us how your process
has been?
● Z: I inadvertently reinforced that myth
for myself: I tried to learn to code three
times. In 2014, in 2015, and in 2017.
And all three times I quit because I
tried to jump too high, set myself up
for failure, and then assumed I wasn't
smart enough (when actually, I had
tried to run before I learned to walk).
● E1: and how was it finally?
● Eventually, he found a mentor who
helped him learn to code and he left a
"successful legal" career to "become a
beginner again."

Farewell
● E2: What is the most important thing
that these achievements have given

in your fields of study?
