Let's talk today about how to give feedback at work, especially if you use English as a second language in the workplace and are not a native English speaker.

Giving feedback to your colleagues, your staff, and your managers, is an essential part of a great team. However, so few people actually do it! We often think of feedback as a scary thing that is reserved for end of year performance reviews and appraisals. However, the best teams in the world make both negative and positive feedback a key part of their company culture.

Today we’re going to hear some tips and ideas for how to give feedback to your colleagues. We’ll hear some great natural and native sounding vocabulary that we can use to do this, and then we’ll finish off with some challenges for you. Including a speaking challenge and a vocabulary quiz to see what you’ve remembered from today’s podcast.

Use these tips to improve your IELTS speaking band score.

When we are preparing for our IELTS speaking part 2, we must make sure that we use connectors.

But what are connectors?

Connectors, also known as linking words or discourse markers, are words and phrases we use to connect our sentences.

For example, let’s imagine we’ve been given the subject of speaking about a member of our family that we get on well with.

It’s a good idea to introduce your speaking with a phrase like “Let’s begin” or “let’s make a start.” These are both connectors.

Secondly, use a variety of adverbs: actually, surprisingly, similarly, really, very, extremely, rarely, sometimes, never, always etc.

Thirdly, if you can, use an idiom. In the following example I used an idiom at the end. See if you can spot it.

Here is an example of the speaking part 2 exercise.

Let’s make a start.

Surprisingly, I get on really well with my sister. In fact, my sister is a really inspiring person. Actually, she’s younger than me. 

I find her inspiring because she’s a champion swimmer. I would never race her. She’s so fast. To be honest, she trains really hard, especially when she has to finish her homework and then go to the swimming pool as well.

Unfortunately, I don’t get to hang out with her very much, because she’s always busy. But when we do meet up, we always have fun. Usually we go shopping. Sometimes we play video games. 

My sister is extremely funny. She has a great sense of humour. We always have a laugh when we spend time together. We rarely argue. Mostly, we get on like a house on fire.

Please do the exercises and find the missing words.

IELTS Speaking Part 2

"... Оставшихся денег было бы достаточно, чтобы выехать из Берлина. Но для этого пришлось бы порвать с Людмилой, а как порвать,-- он не знал. И хотя он поставил себе сроком неделю и объявил хозяйке, что окончательно решил съехать в субботу. Ганин чувствовал, что ни эта неделя, ни следующая не изменят ничего. Меж тем тоска по новой чужбине особенно мучила его именно весной. Окно его выходило на полотно железной дороги, и потому возможность уехать дразнила неотвязно. Каждые пять минут сдержанным гулом начинал ходить дом, затем громада дыма вздымалась перед окном, заслоняя белый берлинский день, медленно расплывалась, и тогда виден был опять веер полотна, суживающийся вдаль, между черных задних стен, словно срезанных, домов, и над всем этим небо, бледное как миндальное молоко..."
