God bless America 🇺🇸🗽🙏☺️🫶
Thanks teacher I watch all of the lesson
Really useful lesson Brent. Thanks.
Attendance check
Great ❤ thank you so much 👍
Thank you so much, Brent! When I was at school, the best students were awarded gold medals; mine is still on the shelf. Hmm, am I really one of those valedictorians? By the way, the picture with the piggy bank says “Tutition” instead of “Tuition”
Oh, no! Thanks for finding the mistake. That’s why you are the valedictorian.
Thank you
Thanks for the thorough explanation Mr Brent! Can you make a lesson about brotherhoods and sororities in college please? I know about them only from movies .
Konstantin, that's a good idea. I never had enough money to join one, though. They are quite expensive.
Good day, colleague) We've just had our grad at school💥 Pretty much the same: commencement, principle's and valedictorians' speeches on the school football field,...you name it😉No grad gowns though, only grad silk shoulder bands with the year🙂But tomorrow all the graduates in Saint Petersburg are having something very special-"Scarlet sails" show when a magnificent ship is sailing along the Neva river accompanied by music, fireworks and other pyrotechnic effects🌟💥🎉Btw, the tense you're using talking about unreal past is 3rd Conditional and as far as I remember😉it should be used without "would" in the subordinate clause, after "if": "If it had rained our graduation would have been held in the gym" (No bragging on my part🙏, my major at uni was teaching grammar😁) Same in my school: we were lucky to have great weather🌈 Thank you for the awesome vid (very useful and pretty handy)and my congrats with the coming vacation💥🌟🌈And hey! We're not old, we're mature🤣🤣🤣....Agree?❤ ... Oh, btw, sorry for the long comment, Brent. I guess, you're too busy to notice all of them, to say nothing about answering. Have a nice summer!
I saw this one, Konstatin. Yeah, I'll never remember the name of that tense. Well done, though. I'm glad graduation went off without a hitch.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent Absolutely smoothly 💥 As for the tense,yep, I just remember the name of the tense 'cuz I like to keep everything structured in my memory.Thus I memorise the it better. But,all in all, you're right, no matter what its name is. But we should use it correctly, otherwise we might distort the idea😉🤝
It is an amazing video. I appreciate it dear Brent. ❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.
Hi thank you although I have been graduated from university long time ago but I learned a lot
That's great! That makes me happy to hear.
Hi, Brent! I am sorry I have no time to watch your lessons, I changed my job and I have to commute for much longer to work. I just dropped in to say hi. Best wishes!
I wish you the best of luck at your new job.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent thanks
From India ❤
nice video
Thanks!
such a soccer pitch Wes. It was not a High School , it looks like a University football pitch. Alumnus in spanish is alumno. Degree, (a grado) Graduate= graduado. with honor ( con Honor) Procession( procesion....normaly in parade).. you can notice that all are alike, similar ones.
Manuel, yeah. I agree. My high school is pretty impressive. It is brand new this year.
Could İ say field or department instead major
Sure. Instead of major, you might hear, “What is your field of study? Probably not department so much.
Brent, I wonder, if the students borrow the gowns and hats from the school or do they need to buy it?
P.S.: Do you think you could show the football field to us some day?
Students need to purchase the cap and gown. It’s quite expensive. We bought my daughter’s. $50, maybe. I will ask my principal if I can do an English lesson at my school when there are no students.
I'vi had a special cursus in bese never been graduated in my life and my work was a sllf made man in buseiness trade So now I'm eighty and retired
A wink from France
Love it! Thanks for watching.
And what about hairtransplant lesson?
Oh, yes. It’s coming. Thanks for asking. 😀
Can I call kindergarten graduation “a commencement” ?
I don’t think so. It’s a little too formal.
