Week 2 · Customer service call: what they’ll say

Support calls are fast because they follow a script. Learn the script — "bear with me", "pull up your account", "a brief hold" — and the rest of the call slows down.

Read the sentences below, then practice the whole lesson with audio.

  1. 1Thanks for calling, this is Sam. How can I help?
