Practice giving a clear project update, explaining risks, and planning next steps. Listen, pause, and answer the three comprehension questions.
Welcome to Vocalyra English. B1 level. Giving a project update.
In this lesson, listen to the conversation and focus on the main ideas, important details, and reasons that are given.
Listen.
Can you give me a quick update on the website redesign?
The design phase is finished, and the development team has completed most of the main pages.
Are we still on track for the end-of-month launch?
Probably, but the payment page is taking longer than expected because of a security review.
Is that likely to delay the whole project?
Not if the review is completed by Wednesday. We have moved two developers to help with the remaining fixes.
What about the mobile version?
Testing starts tomorrow. So far, we have not found any major layout problems.
Please send me a short risk summary before the client meeting.
I’ll send it by three o’clock with the updated timeline and the open issues.
Listen again. Focus on the important details.
