Also, if you're studying for the IELTS, TOEFL, or Cambridge English tests and exams then you might find some of the vocabulary in this episode really useful.

This podcast is all about helping you to communicate better, in English, at work. I work with international English speakers from around the world who use English, at work, as a second or third language and I hope that I can bring some of the ideas, vocabulary, and grammar, from those sessions, to you in this podcast.

Don’t forget that my full time job is helping international professionals who use English at work to improve their communication skills. So, if you need English to do your job but don’t speak it natively then maybe we can work together to help you to achieve your language goals.

Today's examples:

The elevator was tiny and there must have been ten of us in there shoulder to shoulder.

We walked into a vast conference space with wall to wall seating, all decked out in the company colours.

The offices were cramped and stuffy. Definitely not the kind of place I could work for any length of time.

After a couple of minutes in the stuffy office, I had to crack a window
