The decision they practise
In “Helen follows up”, a chat, learners practise what to say and do when the other person pushes back. The wrong options are things a well-meaning person might genuinely say, and the feedback explains why each one is tempting. Short animations show “Where does Amir sit?” and “Rewriting Helen’s note”.
