What this lesson trains

Make these key phrases automatic: “I'm checking the status of my package.”, “My package hasn't arrived yet.”, “It says the package was delivered, but I didn't get it.”, “When should I expect it?”.

Grammar in focus: Present continuous/perfect for status (“I'm checking…,” “hasn't arrived yet”) and reporting a discrepancy.

Say this vocabulary clearly: status, tracking number, delivered, delivery attempt, address.

Copy the question intonation on lines like “When should I expect it?” so you sound natural, not memorized.
