Everyday English
This is the place for English conversation! With these videos you’ll learn useful everyday English phrases for lots of different social situations.
It’s the kind of English you need if you’re going to travel, to make friends and get on well with people. Sometimes my students tell me that when they’re working with English speakers, it’s not the business conversation that’s hard. It’s the small talk and social conversation that are a challenge.
These videos will prepare you for all these things and they will also guide you on what it’s polite (and impolite) to say in English.
