Meet Your Conversation Partner
The English you actually speak at work.
Priya is a senior engineer in Bengaluru on the same distributed team as you — same standup, same sprint board, same broken staging environment nobody wants to own. She is not a teacher and not a test. She is the colleague, which is the English you actually speak all week.
Best for
Anyone working remotely with international teams, doing standups in English, or who finds it harder to follow colleagues than to follow their teacher.
Topics & Skills
Giving a standup update in under a minute
Disagreeing without softening it into nothing
Saying you do not have capacity
Explaining your work to someone without your context
Asking someone to repeat, without shame
