Lots of scenarios, which is great, though I must admit that at some point it starts sounding a bit 'more of the same'. I would listen to this course from time to time, to sharpen the memory and strengthen the POLITENESS muscle.

By sudheer mungamuru on 3/14/2022

The course gently reminds and teaches, the need and ways to be more sensitive and considerate to the feelings of others and self, through various polite expressions of English language. I am convinced that, the practice of various expressions and principles enshrined in the course helps one to be a better social being and avoid many hurts, remorse, guilt, and frictions in human relations. Thanks a lot.
