Making an appointment in English can feel stressful if you’re not a native speaker,
especially over the phone, or if you aren’t used to the lingo (jargon, slang, vocabulary)
people use. Confirming an appointment can also be tricky if you aren’t familiar with the
common phrases people say.

However, we will be able to practice some of those key phrases today.
