Nice teaching
Hi, Thank you so much! Take care, Kirsty
Hi, mam can you take a live spoken english session like j forest english it is really helpful for my type of students who have already reached intermediate level....
Hi, I will be sure to check out her live spoken English format, thanks for letting me know. Take care, Kirsty
❤❤❤
Thank you!
Thank you.
You're welcome! Take care, Kirsty
Hi ! Kirsty excellent! Every thing is perfect, pronunciation, explanation and time for text reading You are superb and the rising star You use a word clumsy, Can we use this word for shoes when they not fit for our feet for example These shoes are very clumsy? Bye for now and see next week Insha Allah
Hi, nice to see you back! Thank you so much for your kind comments! 'Clumsy' is commonly used to describe people or animals, referring to a lack of grace in movement. However, it can also be applied to nouns "I made a clumsy joke"; in this context, 'clumsy' implies awkwardness, inefficiency, or a lack of refinement rather than physical motion. See you next week! Take care, Kirsty.
Good. I enjoyed it.
Glad you enjoyed it! Take care, Kirsty
@ConfidentEnglishWithKirsty Kirsty? Lol. I don't know what It means.
I appreciate your video regarding a variety of phrasal verbs. Although I haven't known well the phrasal verbs in the latter half of this video, I will study them. 🙃 I guess I need to study and remember a lot of phrasal verbs one by one because their meanings are totally different from those of the verbs originally. 😶 Have a good weekend！(^-^)/
Hi, nice to see you back, I'm glad you found the video useful! Take care, Kirsty
Hi.
Hi!
@ConfidentEnglishWithKirsty Have a great day.
Thank you, Kirsty, for your contribution to my English learning journey. The video was great. I look forward to your next lesson. Best regards
You're very welcome! I look forward to seeing you back! Take care, Kirsty
This was really helpful, merci!!
Hi, You're so welcome! Take care, Kirsty
Apparently my decision to learn English was not very successful.
Hi, What are you having difficulty with, maybe I can think of new videos to help? Take care, Kirsty
@@ConfidentEnglishWithKirsty I studied English for six years at school and four years at university, and have been trying to understand it for at least five years. A language that doesn't have a direct translation into my native language is difficult to understand.
❤❤❤
Hi, Thank you! Take care, Kirsty
They made you in a laboratory? Because you are so cute ! 😍🥰😍😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍😍😍😍😘
Haha thanks Jaime
It's easy for me, I can imagine the scene during your reading, The explication was very well.

Tank you for your help ❤❤❤
You are very welcome Achraf! Take care, Kirsty
Thank you, very helpful. Don't forget to mention that Your story telling makes an excellent way to learn English intonation. Would like to hear You read an excerpt of a P.D. James novel, but that would probably create copyright issues.
Hello, great suggestion but you're right, copyright issues are a problem :-/ Have a good weekend, Kirsty
Bravo! Je trouve la histoire fantastique. Merci.
Hello, un grand merci David! Bon weekend, Kirsty
Good.
Thanks!
Thanks a lot for reading this story !!!!! Your prononciation is very helpful 😊 I love the idea of explaining different sentences… this concept is really efficient !!! Well done… Kristy . I’m learning English at home … alone and it’s not obvious… so I appreciate what you are doing 😊😊
You're welcome Jerome 😊, I'm glad it helped, thank you for letting me know! Have a good weekend, Kirsty
Hi Kristy , is there a difference between the two sentences: “If it weren't for you, I would not love” and “If it hadn't been for you, I wouldn't have fallen in love” ?
Hi, 'to fall in love' is to develop a deep romantic attachment to someone, 'to love' is an intense feeling of deep affection or a great interest in something. Hope this helps, Kirsty
@ConfidentEnglishWithKirsty Certainly, your answer is useful, but it is from a literary point of view, not grammar. I was thinking of "If conditional" and what the difference between the two sentences is.
@@ConfidentEnglishWithKirsty I have a video of a man explaining the difference, but I did not understand anything from him. If you understand from him, tell me. ua-cam.com/video/gzjG5vxlePw/v-deo.htmlsi=gicr4aYc07BrgDR7
Hi Kristy ! Welcome! We enjoyed the story but the thing which is liked by me is your reading style; absolutely clear and provoking a sense of different feeling. Very good explanation and pronunciation as well ,for which you deserve to be call a real English teacher but plz,the written explanation should be on screen for a while can be read properly. Plz,share your experience with us that am I right ? You teach but at which level? Thank you soooo much ! Bye for now
Hello, and thank you so much for your kind feedback! I'll make sure to keep the written text visible for longer in future videos, no problem. I run workshops for adults and children in France, for all levels. :) Have a good weekend, take care, Kirsty
Congrats
Thanks Herculano!
I really enjoyed this story!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the feedback! Take care, Kirsty
Kirsty you’re so sweet 💖
😊 thank you!
You're a gifted reader! Listening was interesting in itself.
Hello, thank you so much! You have made my day :) Take care, Kirsty
In order to fully understand and retain this information, it is recommended that you listen to it at least 30 times, and preferably 50 times. It just makes my hands drop at the prospect.
If you have the time go for it 👍;) Take care, Kirsty
Thank You! Excellent way to explain the idioms by easy to remember examples.
Hi, You are welcome! Glad it was helpful, take care, Kirsty
I just love idioms for fun since its not gonna cost me an arm and a leg!!
😂 'An arm and a leg' is a good one ;)
Hello Kristy. Greetings from Casablanca Morocco.
Hello welcome! I hope your English learning is going well! Take care, Kirsty
"jump on the bandwagon", Does that mean that the person is opportunistic?
Hello, good question! Depending on how the expression is said (tone of voice) and the circumstances, it can definitely be said in a way that implies opportunism. Take care, Kirsty
Thanks teacher Kirsty i am from Venezuela
Hello 👋, welcome to my channel! Take care, Kirsty
Big support
Hi, I'm glad you liked it, thanks for letting me know :) Take care, Kirsty
Is there a special today?
👍😊
Any examples for chunking?
Hi :), yes there are examples in this video: ua-cam.com/video/XSVkPg23m7Y/v-deo.html Hope this helps, take care, Kirsty
I'm learning english by myself do you do conversation class?
Hello, I currently only give face to face lessons in France sorry!
@ConfidentEnglishWithKirsty ok, I'm from Brazil I'm learning by myself I need to pratice my conversation, but it's ok thanks🙂
@@canalklyn5770 I understand, it must be hard. I'll try to make some 'speak with me' videos. Another good way to perfect your English is to 'shadow' (I did this to learn French). Check out my video '5 ways to understand fast English' that has more tips to help you learn alone. Good luck! Kirsty ua-cam.com/video/XSVkPg23m7Y/v-deo.html
Seems? Clearly you mean seams.
Hi, oh my goodness, 100% 'seam'! I don't do all of my screen text examples, and I didn't catch this one. Thanks for letting me know! I need to see if I can edit it.
Very good work and you really do hard work I hope in future your channel will flourish so that every will begin liking you But your mood need to be jolly and like other should be attractive all the other UA-cam teacher do a little bit attraction movements. You seem very serious which not suitable as learning is fun. You know better I said what I felt , excuse me teacher but personally I like u . Thank you so much
Hi Ashgar, thanks for the feedback, I'll keep it in mind! Take care, Kirsty
Thank you for your video. I didn't know except 'under the weather' and 'break a leg'. I wonder if the idiom 'Now the ball is in your court' similar to 'It's up to you'. 🤔
Hi there, I'm glad the video helped! It is indeed similar to 'it's up to you'. Take care, Kirsty
@ConfidentEnglishWithKirsty Thank you for your answer. I appreciate you. Have a good day！(^-^)/
Which preposition will be correct? Write your name 1) at the bottom of 2) below 3) under this page. I think number 1 and 2 correct. What do you think about that?
Hi Ivan, depending on the context, I often see 'please write your name at the bottom of the page.' Hope this helps. Take care, Kirsty
❤❤❤thanks
You're welcome, I'm glad you liked it! Take care, Kirsty
Tank you for your help ❤❤❤

Hi, you are so welcome! Thinking in a second language can be difficult. I also speak French, for me thinking in my second language came from lots and lots of audio input. I have noted that you would like a video on this topic, thanks for letting me know, it gives me ideas! Take care, Kirsty
