A little about me:
My name's Minoo, and I'm originally from Iran.
I obtained my TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) Diploma in England in 1985.
Since then, I've been an English teacher, teacher trainer, and course director in various schools and countries. I'm also a trained confidence coach.
In 2008, my son, Tom, and I set up the Anglo-Link platform for online English studies.
This led to the creation of our popular UA-cam channel in 2011.
My passion is to share with you what I've learnt on my own English language journey, both as a student and as a teacher, so that you can become a fluent speaker of English too.
Join the Anglo-Link Community at app.anglo-link.com.
Here you will find all the support you need to reach your goal of speaking English with confidence and ease!

I love the way you teach English. Thank you.
My pleasure!
Thank you very much! I started watching your videos 2 years ago and I still find useful information. Luckily the grammar hasn't changed in the last decade as my teacher used to say!
You're very welcome!
Coucou Gorgeous Minoo Minoo.Thanks so much for this new vidéo which has taken me years back.cristal Clear way of explaining as usual. 🍋❤🍇
I'm very glad it has been helpful!
Thank you so much for the class!
You're very welcome!
wow. great information for all english students.
Glad you think so!
I've studied English language a lot, just because I love It. It's a pleasure hearing your English (it's a soft and super nice voice). However, as I rarely speak the language, I end up forgetting some rules. Anyway, It was a pleasure to come across your valuable lesson/chat.
Thank you very much!
Very very useful lesson ma'am. Thanka a lot
My pleasure!
As well done as usual!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this lesson!! 😭😭. And a huge thanks for pointing out mistake no. 6. It was really nagging me for a long time. Seeing people using present perfect with since literally vexed me
You're very welcome!
I do understand everything. Thank you. Love you. A
Wonderful!
Thank you🙏😊💙
Most welcome!
Minoo, I am absolutely buzzing to see you again! Did you know that you always make my day each time you show up 😀 Now talking about *since and for * I do believe they both have other meaning, haven't they? Ex: SINCE you don't like lamb have some chicken. also Lionel Richie's song *Hello* he says: FOR I haven't got a clue. Interested to hear your input on this. Thank you for your time.
Thank you!
Indeed, but 'since' and 'for' in these contexts are no longer prepositions but conjunctions.
@@AngloLinkEnglish I see. Thank you as ever .
Thank you beautiful lady.
You are most welcome!
Thanks for taking the pain to make this video on my request. So grateful to you.
I lived in Greece from 1980.
I started this work from 1980.
Are these sentences correct? Or do I need to mention the end time?
You're welcome. It's a confusing area for many.
Yes, you do need to mention the end time: from ... to/till/until.
If you don't want to mention it, you should say: I started living/working ...... in 1980.
@@AngloLinkEnglish thanks a lot
Number 1 Minoo 👍👍
Thank you!
Hi , Anglo from ny
Hello Jose!
❤️
Hello. Great video! I was wondering if you could help me with using the word "since" in the context : Since next week she will have classes with Martin on Saturdays at 5 pm. Does this sentence make sence to you?
Thank you, Julia.
No, it doesn't. I would say: As from next week ...
Excuse me sir , what about the preposition which follows the past participl been in present perfect tense . Should we use the preposition" to" because it is a verb of movement?
Could you give me a sentence, please?
Tq madam. And vl u give
another clarity of using "on and in"
In the page or on the page orelse at the page....which is right
On page 13 ...
We have been working on the project for the last few weeks
Instead of "past" can we use 'last'
Is it correct??
Yes, it is.
❤️♥️❤️
i'm always confusing word the "for" and "as"
in sentence, I lived in Greece for 10 years between 2005 and 2015.
teacher said that it's clear that the person no longer lives in Greece. so the person plans not to live in Greece soon right? does he about to leave Greece to other somewhere else?
How about * long since * is it similar to *ago* Ex: I have not spoken to him long since/ ago . Thanks ever so much and by for now.
No, 'ago' doesn't work in this sentence. The equivalent with 'ego': I spoke to him a long time ago.
Hi teacher do you teach British accent ?
Yes.
