□ Learning to learn
When you make a suggestion, use less direct language than you would to make a statement or give an order. This makes it clear to the other person that you are giving them a choice. For example, you can begin with expressions such as Why don't we… How about… or use a past tense to distance yourself from the suggestion: I was wondering whether…
After listening
Andy: Hello!
Clara: Hi, Andy! This is Clara. Matt just called me. He said he broke his leg and couldn’t make our trip to London this week.
Andy: What a shame! He’s been looking forward to it for ages. Why don’t we wait until he’s better
Clara: He said we should go without him. It will take quite a while for him to get well again. He doesn’t want us to give up our holiday because of him.
Andy: But Matt is our friend. He needs our comfort and support. Let’s think about ways to cheer him up!
Clara: You’re right! We could send him photos of the places we visit.
Andy: We could, but that might make him feel even worse. I want to make him laugh.
Clara: How about sending him funny postcards from every place we visit
Andy: Maybe, but postcards can take days to arrive.

Andy: [interrupts] Matt will be in the photos, too, as if he were there with us.
Clara: That’s right! “Flat Matt” will go to London with us, and the real Matt will laugh at the photos.
Andy: OK, Clara. Let’s do it!
