Giving Good News in English

Responding to Bad News in English

When we give bad news, we already feel stressed and nervous and upset when we do it in our own native language, but when you have to do it in English, then it becomes not only upsetting, but also scary. How do you do it correctly and in a good appropriate way?

Strategies for Giving Bad News

This week we are focused on eight idioms inspired by the summer. We’re going to think about using different idioms in English so that you can understand them naturally in any conversation, or if you hear them on a TV show or radio program.

In this lesson, you’re going to learn everything you need to know to do that politely in English.

Today we’re going to really focus on how you can talk about different future events more naturally in English. You probably learned to use the word “will” or what we often call the future simple when we talk about future events. For example, you would maybe say something like, “I will go to dinner with my friend after work tonight”, or “I will go to Portugal next week for a business conference”. The only problem is we don’t really talk like that in English.

The Simple Future Tense
