The extra mile (useful English vocabulary you'll hear in the podcast):

Getting and giving good feedback in English

[NEW: We're now accepting your English-related questions, feedback and topic ideas. If you'd like to contact us, please send an email to: [email protected] ]

In this episode, Christina and Kristina talk about:

  • Why it's useful to play devil's advocate
  • Ways to give feedback and suggestions diplomatically
  • The only question you need 90% of the time you want feedback

The extra mile (useful English vocabulary you'll hear in the podcast):

  • to play devil's advocate = to pretend to disagree with someone in order to have a good discussion about something
  • to overcome obstacles = to successfully deal with difficult situations
  • We'll cross that bridge when we get there = we'll discuss that problem when it actually happens
