In this lesson, you’ll learn how to interrupt and ask questions during meetings in a polite and professional way.

You’ll explore strategies using past tenses, Present Perfect, and negative or tag questions to soften interruptions and frame your points considerately.

The lesson also covers adjusting the formality of your language depending on the audience, timing your interjections appropriately, and using tone and body language to ensure your interruptions are respectful.

By mastering these techniques, you’ll be able to participate actively in discussions without disrupting the flow or offending others.

The video is followed by a short test intended to check your knowledge of the key vocabulary.

The speaker is Anastasiia Kolesnykova, Senior Teacher & Teacher Trainer at Bubbles English Center, CELTA & DELTA (M1, M2) certified.
