Soon, I will become a receptionist to a big corporate and I feel so nervous to be on the phone. I become so nervous that I forget even the most common words or phrases. I'm even doubting myself if I'm the right person for the job

Thank you for the help.

I enjoyed this lesson. Your YouTube channel is everything I've been looking for! I enjoy interacting with people, but at the same time I'm forced to hold myself back in the fear of saying something embarrassing and unprofessional and also it makes to super nervous to interact in English. I'm so so so grateful to you.

[anitablanco]

I love listening to you speaking so clearly. I speak well though I speak so fast that at times I am not understood because of my accent. I do communicate so much better when I write. Much thanks
