The English Breakfast

Good morning and welcome back to The English Breakfast. Your weekly, Sunday morning collection of business English tips and tricks to make you look awesome in the office this week.

I’m feeling particularly generous today (maybe the festive spirit is getting to me already 🎅), so I want to give you loads of free material that will help improve your English skills TODAY as well as a special offer to have a free lesson with me online. (Can’t wait? Watch this video until the end).

Business English Survival Pack

A few months ago, I created a simple one-page guide to help Italian business professionals like you who need to use English in the office.

I’ve decided to turn this guide into a folder with lots of different resources. In it, you’ll find:

  • The Business English Survival guide - everything you need to know to survive that meeting you have on Monday morning! 😎

  • Cosa vuol dire Get? - understand when to really use this fundamental English verb.

  • Tutti i tempi verbali che ti servono veramente - which structures do you really need to know to be able to speak fluently?

  • “What did you say?” - A sample of my debut ebook that will help you understand mother-tongue English speakers by teaching you 99 common phrases and idioms that you’ll hear all the time.

I’ll be adding more resources soon.

How to avoid a common mistake

I heard one of my advanced level students say something this week and I wanted to share it with you.

Apart from being a nice reminder that it’s OK to make mistakes at ANY level 😉 it’s also a really common mistake that Italian speakers of English often make. Let’s have a look…

Can you tell the difference in meaning between these two sentences?

  1. I’m in the office from Monday.

  2. I’ve been in the office since Monday

Both of these sentences are correct, but what do you think the mistake was?

(I’ll give you a clue. It’s about the correct use of the present perfect tense.)

Do you have the answer?

Watch the video below to find out the answer.

How do you say “improvvisamente” in English? 🤔

Maybe you already know the word “suddenly”. That’s a great translation for the word “improvvisamente“.

But we have a lot of different ways of saying this word.

Can you think of any others?

Watch this video to learn a really common phrase you can use instead of “suddenly“.

All right, that’s it. I’m off to have a look around the Christmas markets near the castle in Milan. I’d better make a start on the Christmas shopping 😅

Have a great week and I’ll see you next time.

Ciao for now,

Dan
