Did you know that being assertive in English can help you manage stress and negative emotions, deal with uncomfortable situations, and express yourself more effectively?

Plus, it can help you avoid too many responsibilities if you have a hard time saying no to others or asking for what you want.

And, most importantly, sound more confident.

That all sounds pretty awesome, doesn’t it?

But what does it mean to be assertive and how can you do that in English?

That’s exactly what we’re going to focus on in this first Confident English lesson for 2019!

In today’s lesson, you’ll learn what it means to be assertive in English and you’ll get 5 strategies that will help you communicate in an assertive way with confidence:

✨Say no to meet a client after work because you want to go to your daughter’s concert at school

✨Ask for what you want/need at work, without feeling bad

✨Defend your opinion or point of view, even if others disagree with you

✨Manage stress more easily by setting clear boundaries

✨Respond to uncomfortable situations respectfully instead of with anger or aggression

At each step, I’ll share clear examples of the language you can use in English to help you do this. And then you’ll have the opportunity to practice at the end.
