Conversational Communication Challenges Can Be Resolved with Bold Decision


"Many hear the sounds of enunciated words and phrases influenced heavily by the mother tongue instead of listening to the meaningful essence of what is being communicated." - Terrenal 

Here is a personal question for yourself.


Is any of the following illustrated my inabilities, deficiencies or frustrations today or may be in the past?
  • I have poor verbal and written communication skills
  • Inability to articulate myself to my peers at work and outside work because I do not speak the English language well
  • I am a Team Leader but has issues in communicating verbally and effectively with my team members
  • I cannot advanced myself in my career as I felt my communication skills are not proficient
  • I lack leadership skills and wanted to accomplish more results
  • I always find myself below par when engaged in conversational topics with friends
  • I have been to numerous interviews but cannot land the job due to my communication skills and conversational inabilities
  • When explaining something to others I was always searching for the right words or phrases
  • Speaking in front of others is always been my problem, I always read my powerpoint line by line when I present and cannot articulate additional information that were not listed in the presentation
  • At numerous occasions, I've been tasked to relate with Excel Spreadsheets but don't have any knowledge of using it
  • I went to school and learned English but I cannot express myself conversationally like other English speakers, however I can write my ideas well
  • I have been living in the United States for few years but still cannot speak English well, I have also attended many ESL classes at various centers
  • I am new in the area and working for a technology company, however my English is very limited

What can you do?
For someone who experienced any of the above listed 'facts', that were frustrating conversational issues, difficulties of demonstrating communicative efficiency with team members, co-workers, with friends and acquaintances. It is highly suggested to give oneself a new personal development and gain better competency, achieve more progress in the near future and be BOLD.

It is also a fact, that there are many (individuals or organizations) that discriminate those who do not communicate well. "Many hear the sound of enunciated words and phrases influenced heavily by the mother tongue instead of listening to the meaningful essence of what is being communicated." - said  J. Terrenal. 

To remedy those challenges, learn the real Conversational English Competency through the help of an experienced Coach in Communication, Linguistics, Business and Leadership. This type of Coach integrates the whole self of the learner's backgrounds, difficulties and future endeavors for success.

We like to hear your experiences and thoughts. Please share them to us and we always appreciate your inputs. Thank you.

Selling Oneself during Conversations and Interviews


As candidate for a specific position, you must know your abilities. Be confident that you bring your technical skills and professional competencies to the employer’s business. When given that chance and moment, you will take advantage of the situation and discuss the problems and challenges they were facing but not to inquire about jobs, and show them your enthusiasm to bring in additional revenue through your effectiveness. This scenario will turn into your favor as a candidate. In addition, knowing what is outside the interviewing room is equally crucial piece of information for making your personal or professional decision to join the organization. You have the right to inquire in equal footing to their right of screening you.

Candidates must NOT work with recruiters or representatives with bad practices:
Your goal as a candidate is to screen out those organizations that do not demonstrate good recruitment and hiring practices. Be watchful of common bad practices; such as oftentimes requested an updated resume but never get any follow up from the Requester. Nor they send any acknowledgement, or communicate back with candidates after initial conversations. They do not send a feedback of the status of the application. They send a reply to candidates after 3 months from date of application. Conducted an interview either by phone or in person, but did not send any updates beyond ten days. All of these common bad practices within the recruitment and staffing arena are giving a bad name to the industry where real professionals do their work at best. Create a database of people you have spoken with regards to jobs and do not communicate with them again if they do not practice good business and communication. They are not a good source of information about opportunities.

Make your competencies as your assets:
Your competencies will demonstrate your abilities to do the job. Having the proficiency in speaking and conversationally engage with the Interviewing Team or Panel, this will open the doors of opportunity for you.

Highlight your technical skills, illustrate through effective conversations your proficiency in communicating about your ideas and abilities to perform the job. 

Create your portfolio that will speak about yourself and discuss strongly how you can solve many of the issues that the company are going through. Put currency value to your efforts and business plan. Present that ROI and they will extend you an offer letter without blinking. Must illustrate your capabilities as validated by experiences that were undeniably effective with ROI and results-driven.

Have your References talk and discuss about your qualities as an individual, a team partner, leader, or part of an effective team. However, be mindful do not give your List of References to a recruiter to contact until you have a face to face interview and been extended a verbal offer.

Do you have difficulties with persuasive conversations?
The American Coaches of Ideas N Conversations can help you develop and advance your interviewing skills and become conversationally savvy. Your proficiency to articulate your skills and competencies will influence the hiring decision. 

If you like to get Hired contact +1 (650) 241-3207 and discuss your difficulties and learn many ways to become effective during the interviewing process. If you help yourself you will get what you like to have and others do not give you that unless you can demonstrate.

Role of English Language in the Conversation - Acquire Proficiency

Language play an important role in the midst of conversation among members of the society. It will help in the formation of concepts, ideas, feelings and thoughts.  When you think of  a concept, you are using an imaginative skills but when you share that concept or idea to another individual, you will need a verbal form of the language to communicate your concept or idea.
English is a major language that is used in the United States and other English speaking countries around the world. It is also a major language that is used for business communication globally across cultures. English is a native language in the United States while it is learned as a second or third language of other language speakers at non-English speaking countries. 

Speaking in English is quite a challenge, specially when it is not your mother tongue. People from other parts of the globe who live in an English speaking country learn how to communicate in English. They acquire certain degree of proficiency in order to communicate effectively their thoughts, feelings and ideas. 

There are however big differences between the spoken and written forms of English. Many who learned English as their Second or Third language from a foreign country, they acquired grammatically-based knowledge and proficiency.  When they start speaking in a grammatically-based conversation, the native speakers are challenged when comprehending their utterances because the latter did not learn the grammatical syntax when speaking.  

Conversational English was never the focus of learning English in most foreign countries. One reason why many people who learned English in their countries can write and read effectively but not in speaking. 

Conversational English Language is an essential skill and competency when you live in an English speaking country.  It will help you to converse properly and articulate your ideas and feelings. 

If your second language is English, can you identify your proficiency level based on the scale provided below? 

Level 1 - searching for words or think a long time about the right word(s) to say when sharing an information 

Level 2 - can express basic utterances and information but limited in free flowing conversation

Level 3 - can handle an average conversation but limited in expanding thoughts and ideas

If you feel that your proficiency in Conversational English is in either of the above identified proficiency level, it is strongly recommended that you will take some learning lessons in Conversational English.  Developing your ability as a good conversationalist is our business. 

We have several classes that are customizable based on your level of difficulties in order to gain the correct proficiency. 

After completing the required period you will gain a higher level of proficiency or even a Competency in English.
