  • We are learning how & when to use A and AN - the indefinite articles in English grammar! I’ve got 4 simple rules you must learn plus, some pronunciation practice so you use A & AN naturally when you speak!
    As always, I’ve included a practice QUIZ at the end 🤓📚☑️💡🤩 to test yourself and help you review what you learned in this lesson!
    This lesson is PART 1 of a series of lessons, where I’ll teach you everything you need to know about English articles so you can stop making grammar mistakes! PART 2 is all about the definite article (the) and when to not use an article at all!
    Make sure you subscribe to mmmEnglish (& turn notifications on 🔔)so I can let you know when that lesson is ready for you!
    Plus, in PART 2 you will be able to download the complete articles worksheet I’ve created for you 📝to practise using English articles accurately!
