Professionele leerkrachtThere's one phrase in English that unlocks almost every polite request: "Could you...?"
It's simple. It's versatile. And once you know how to use it, you'll use it every single day.
Need someone to repeat something? "Could you say that again?"
Need help with a task? "Could you help me with this?"
Making a request at work? "Could you send me that file?"
In this week's episode of Fresh Start English, I break down this structure step by step — so you can make polite requests confidently in any situation.
One phrase. A hundred uses.
