Today we have another lesson on conversational English for you.

And the topic I've chosen is making an appointment.

As usual, we're going to look at both the friendly, informal style.

and the more formal, business like style.

The first dialogue is in the context of someone making an appointment with a friend.

And the second dialogue, someone is making an appointment with her lawyer.

After you've heard both dialogues, we are going to compare them sentence by sentence.

So you can become aware of the differences in styles and expressions.

And we'll finish with a gap filling exercise

to help you to practice the useful expressions in the dialogues more actively and memorise them.

By the end of the lesson you will have a nice selection of expressions to use when you're making an appointment.

This week's prize is a free copy of our Anglo-File 117

which is a complete review of the English sound system.

That will help you to improve both your pronunciation and your listening comprehension.

All you need to do to enter the prize draw

So when you're ready, we can begin!
