Thank you, Luis. I'm glad to know it was a helpful lesson. My focus is primarily on speaking. At this time, I'm not familiar with specific teachers who provide writing courses. However, I know many English schools offer wonderful writing programs.
Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤
You are so welcome. 😀
Thank you for this lesson . Please could you provide the words and important phrasal verbs on a college job interview.
I can certainly add that to my list of future lesson topics. You might also like to view the video library on my website, Job Interviews in English, www.speakconfidentenglish.com/category/job-interviews-in-english/
Worth watching. Very much Enjoyed. New Subscriber for your channel,starting today. Happy New Year 2023.👍🙏
Thanks so much for watching and subscribing, @karthikeyane6841! I appreciate it and am glad you're enjoying my lessons. Happy New Year! 😀
I really apprieciate the effort you spend in the making of this video.
However, It would be a good idea for you to pause the screen a little bit after you introduce some phrases/ words, so that we can take notes of them. The pause doesnt have to be long though, only 10 seconds or less.
I find it a little bit unconvenient to constantly press the Pause button on UA-cam to take notes of new words/ phrases you give in the video.
All in all, thank you so much for providing us with free but high-quality content here on UA-cam.
Thank you for the comment and suggestions. I will take this into consideration. I appreciate that you take the time to take notes on the lessons, and that they are helpful to you. 😀
Good, but make it more academic, since students in Africa,particularly here in Ethiopia,are extrinsically motivated-studying the English language to pass their exams.Your pronunciation is captivating,with slow, natural speed of speech.Thanks, and go ahead

Hi Annemarie, do you have a session on paragraph writing?
Thank you for the question. Unfortunately I do not as I focus most of my work on spoken communication.
😍😍
Liked & subscribed! Question: How about "sometimes" and "other times?" Do you say, "Sometimes, I go to bed early; other times, late?" Or, "Sometimes, I go to bed early; sometimes, late." Do you use "sometimes..., other times..." or "sometimes..., sometimes...?" Which one is correct? Thank you.
Thanks for the question. Both of your examples could be used. There is little to no difference between using 'other times' vs. 'sometimes' in the second part of your example sentence. However, saying "Sometimes I go to be early" implies that it isn't always true. There's an understanding that at other times you may go to bed late so you could also leave out the second part of the sentence.
@@Speakconfidentenglish Thank you! 😊
❤❤❤👍💯
I'd like to know when to stress the words in a sentence. I always hear you , in fact many native speakers do, stress the preposition "to". However, many English teachers are telling the English learners not to stress any prepositions in a sentence because they are not content words. Please help.
Hi, thank you for the request. I'll certainly consider a lesson on this in the future; however, I will say that most of the time the word 'to' is reduced. There may be times when it is spoken clearly (this doesn't mean it is stressed, only that it isn't reduced) or may even be stressed for a specific reason (such as clarification). Do you have a specific example you can share with me? It would be helpful if I could listen to an example you're thinking about.
Maam could you send all the linking words in pdf format?

Use linking ..
Hi, I'm Roshsn Kumar from India
They are linking words but if you can express yourself with fewer words conveying the same sense you should strive to speak clearly and briefly. Use linking words only when really necessary. There is no need to add words just so so you appear smarter.
Can i to learn english following your lessons. I haven't want to follow Oprah Winfrey.
Referring to my latest comment below, I should have written...... the infinitive "to" instead of the preposition. Sorry about that.
I have difficulty with English writing, and this limits me from applying to positions I know I can do well. However, my English writing is not advanced. I struggle with this because English is my second language. I hate it. I feel useless.
I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope this lesson provided strategies that will be useful to you.
Screen is not clear what you write on the board
Learn from Myanmar 😝
Text to speech sure makes people sound messed up,when the words dont even match what they said
I’m a new immigrant 😂
The contrast between the texts and the background is poor. The letters should have been in black.
Very worst lesson.
