But throughout the conversation, you'll see some advanced English expressions that are used in everyday casual conversations.

These are going to be phrasal verbs, idioms and fixed expressions that are very common in spoken English.

These advanced expressions are essential to learn so I've made you a free PDF that goes with this lesson
