I've worked with him for only about 2 months. Before assigned to the current project, I had a career interview with him. I heard the project members needed to use English every day. However, I am not good at English especially speaking and said to him I felt concerned about working well. Then he said, "Don't worry. If you don't understand what the other people say, it is okey to ask them to repeat. Everyone will help you, of course I do."
