Send us a text

Change is one of the only things that is certain at work. Therefore, being able to talk about things getting worse or getting better is certainly something that can be useful in professional contexts. However, for international professionals, sounding natural and native when talking about change at work can be difficult. In today's podcast I'll give you some great vocabulary to discuss these ideas and to communicate your thoughts. I'll give you the grammar to use them in a natural and native way and I'll you'll hear some examples of how these would sound in a real English speaking workplace.

This podcast is all about helping you to communicate better, in English, at work. I work with international English speakers from around the world who use English, at work, as a second or third language and I hope that I can bring some of the ideas, vocabulary, and grammar, from those sessions, to you in this podcast.

Don’t forget that my full time job is helping international professionals who use English at work to improve their communication skills. So, if you need English to do your job but don’t speak it natively then maybe we can work together to help you to achieve your language goals.

Your performance has really improved over the past few weeks and I really appreciate how much effort you've been putting in.

The team was heading in the wrong direction but they've been working hard on fixing this situation and I think we've really turned a corner this week.

it was raining earlier but I think it's looking up now

Once one thing goes wrong, it has a knock on effect and we end up in a vicious cycle.

We missed our Q1 target and it's been all downhill from there.
