150 English Phrases for Everyday Use
About course
English for everyday communication is not just about grammar and vocabulary. It’s also about using fixed expressions such as “How have you been?”, “Good for you!”, “What do you think of…?”, “I’m running late”. If you’re at an intermediate level and want to sound natural in everyday conversations, you’re on the right track.
This course is a collection of 150 conversational phrases for Intermediate learners that will help you communicate more confidently in common everyday and work-related situations. You won’t just learn new vocabulary — you’ll see it in dialogues, hear it in audio, and practise it through different types of exercises.
Throughout the course, you’ll learn how to make small talk, respond to news, express and justify your opinion, give advice, invite people and make suggestions, talk about being late and work responsibilities, handle a job interview, describe personality, express irritation, compare things, and talk about their advantages and disadvantages. You’ll also learn phrases that will help you sound more natural in English.
