Useful Terms for Performance Reviews

Words that go together are called collocations. For example, you do work, not make work. Since a performance review is common in the workplace (a meeting where a manager discusses the goals and performance of his or her employees), let’s have a look at some words that collocate with goals and performance, and see how they can be used.

Listen to the following examples of how these collocations would be used in a conversation. Then, look at the quiz below and type in the correct collocation (Note: consider verbs tense change).
