125. 3 Super Important Structures with "...

Anna Connelly, Anna Connelly.
About this episode

THIS IS AN ANNA WITH 2Ns EPISODE BEFORE I REBRANDED TO CONFIDENT BUSINESS ENGLISH. I RECOMMEND STARTING WITH THE MOST RECENT CONFIDENT BUSINESS ENGLISH EPISODES.
Ask is a verb that has a big return on investment if you can learn to use it properly. It's a core verb and the structures that I talk about in this episode are essential ones that you will have to use at some point. It's worthwhile putting in time to hear what they are and also some common things people do wrong that you can get right. I've been working on these recently with my clients and there have been several "aha" moments where they realised they had been using the wrong structure. I really recommend spending a little time listening to this one. 

Enjoy! Anna
