Daily English Upgrade #029: Business Skill — Summarize + confirm action items

Mohamed Helmy

This makes you sound professional (and prevents mistakes).

Useful phrases:

  • Just to summarize, …
  • So the next steps are…
  • Let’s confirm the action items.
  • Does that sound right?

Mini practice (20 seconds):
Summarize this in one sentence:
“We’ll change the plan, check the budget, then decide on Friday.”

It’s much easier to make this natural when you practice it in real conversation. If you’d like, we can work on it together in a 25-minute lesson (supportive corrections, no pressure).
