But the way we communicate is a little different from in-person conversations. We have some special expressions we use to answer the phone, ask for clarification, and get a callback.</p>\n<p>At the start of a phone call, it’s a good idea to make sure the other person knows who you are. You can identify yourself in a few different ways. Besides saying “my name is,” we often use the expression “this is” before our name. But don’t try to use this expression in person. I only say “this is Tim” when I’m talking on the phone. </p>\n<p>925 English is a new series of <a href=\"https://www.businessenglishpod.com/category/video/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">English videos</a> for beginners (CEFR level A2).
