Do you hear others using phrasal verbs but they never seem to pop into your head? More or less you understand the meaning or perhaps you've seen them before but you just don't use them. This is really frustrating because you want to make progress and not just use the same words all the same. This is the first in a new series that will look at how to help you sound more advanced. We will start with phrasal verbs. Make sure you sign up to the newsletter to get the written summary with sentence examples that you can use.

I wanted to do something different this week and reflect on one of the most impactful episodes since the start of the podcast. Nigel (The Interview Specialist) and I recorded this podcast in 2021. I thought it would be a great idea to revisit this episode as you may be a new listener and I think it's well worth listening to his expert tips and advice about how to have a successful interview in English.

Do you panic or avoid saying numbers at work? It's so common to feel like this. And normal. I'm the same in Spanish. We spend a lot of time thinking about the words and the sentence structures that we forget about these important things that come up all the time in work conversations. You can listen to the numbers and repeat to practice out loud or do a dication exercise with this episode.

Do you have to talk about things that aren't going well? Do you have to tell someone they haven't done something the right way? This can be a very common interaction at work that is often not practiced. This can make the conversation more difficult and not flow very well in English. I cover key vocabulary you can use to deliver constructive critcism and several examples in context that you can take and use in your day-to-day work.

Online meetings are a crucial part of how you connect and build relationships with your teams. Aside from the technical parts of the English language, some of the areas I work on with clients are about how they come across when they are on the other side of the screen. I talk in this episode about small, actionable things that you can do to have better presence in online meetings.

Putting yourself out there to ask a question can feel a bit intimidating with everybody looking at you. You could just send an email or write it in the chat, but where's the fun in that? I'm going to prioritise a few types of questions that come up a lot at work that people are less familiar with as well as a common mistake with a basic question.

Enjoy!

In this episode I tell you about an experience I had giving a business presentation and Q&A in Spanish and what I learnt from that. It was quite an eye-opening experience and I wanted to share it with you because it might be useful in your communications too. I also realised that some areas are much more important than others and I tell you what those are. The episode is a bit longer this week as I wanted to have enough time to cover all the points and was enjoying doing the analysis.

I hope you can take something away from it
