A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Give learners page 1 and use the suggested answers on page 2 after they have compared their own responses.
- Compare Would you like me to review…? with If it would help, I could join…; notice the action being offered.
- Write responses for presentations, client preparation, technical support and already-arranged help.
- Role-play a difficult-call offer, clarify the useful contribution and accept or decline politely.
Support and extension
Use task/person/useful support notes. Extend by narrowing a vague offer to one realistic action; the suggested answers are alternatives, not binding promises.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
