• Considering how minor changes to phrasing can have a major impact on rapport
• Developing flexibility of phrasing according to context
• Reflecting on the potential pitfalls of direct translation
• Considering cultural differences in professional presentation
• Reviewing key skills for communicating clearly and compassionately
• Discovering time-efficient strategies for continuing language development
