How to Respond to Praise: Conversation Practice

Practice responding to praise in English with our interactive conversation guide.

Responding to praise gracefully is an essential communication skill. This video provides a practical conversation to help you learn how to respond to compliments in English.

In this conversation practice, you will play the role of Michelle (red) and I'll play the role of your colleague (blue).

Here’s the conversation:

  • Red: Michelle, you really did a good job this time!
  • Blue: You flatter me. It was really a challenge to me.
  • Red: But you did it, and it was a job well done.
  • Blue: Thank you for saying so.
  • Red: Your project made so much profit for the company.
  • Blue: Without your support, I would not have gotten the achievement.
  • Red: The board decided to give you a bonus.
  • Blue: I would appreciate that.

This dialogue showcases polite and appreciative ways to respond to compliments. Here are 4 phrases to remembered:

  • You flatter me. A humble way to acknowledge the praise while downplaying your own role.
  • Thank you for saying so. A simple and gracious acknowledgment.
  • Without your support, I would not have gotten the achievement. Acknowledging others’ contributions shows humility and teamwork.
  • I would appreciate that. A polite way to accept a reward or acknowledgment.

By practicing this conversation, you will become more comfortable and confident in responding to praise. Watch our video to engage with these examples and improve your English communication skills.
