Have you been in this country for many years but still feel that your English
language skills do not accurately reflect your talents and ideas? Are your
language skills affecting your interpersonal relationships or preventing
you from getting the results that you want? Perhaps you have had some of
these experiences:
Meetings
You sit through an entire meeting with a valuable contribution to make but
do not participate. Why?
- You have difficulty getting into the fast paced conversation
- You worry that your speech is not perfect, and you might be misunderstood
- You feel that
your words and phrases are not the ones
Americans would use
- You do not want to attempt interrupting and seem impolite
Writing
You write emails, reports, or meeting minutes:
- You worry about your grammar, word choice, or tone
- You write and rewrite many times
- You do not get the responses you expect
- You use too many words to get your point across
Speaking
You give presentations, speak on the phone, or converse with colleagues
or clients:
- You are asked to repeat certain words or phrases
- You worry about your tone, especially when making requests
- You are concerned that you are losing your audience
- You feel that your pronunciation or accent affects the length and
quality of your communication
- You want to say “no” or give a firm response but are
afraid of sounding aggressive
