2) '...downloaded many apps...' not, 'app'.
3) '...such as Twitter, Facebook, etc. As you know, it is...' not, '...such as Twitter , Facebook ,… As you know , it is...'

Very good job 👍🏆🥇 can you please make a video about school and bullying ?
Thanks for watching and sharing your suggestion. I'm not sure if we would be able to make a lesson specifically about bullying. However, we do have a lesson to help you talk about your studies: www.oxfordonlineenglish.com/talk-about-your-studies.
What is your favourite app at this moment?
My favourite apps are Netflix, BBC News, and also British podcast. I spend most of my times during this pandemic it helps me to study and not to forget what I have learned, they also downloaded series and has remained if I forgot to listen. and other apps enable me to not get bored like Netflix.
Excellent. Thanks for watching and sharing! Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) 'I spend most of my time...' not, 'times'.
2) '...spend most of my time using these apps during this pandemic. It helps...' not, '...spend most of my times during this pandemic it helps...'.
3) '...learned. They also allow me to download series to keep them...' not, '...learned, they also downloaded series and has remained...'
Hope this helps you!
I have lot of apps in my smartphone but probably I have to use and learning the english language i have to use CAKE app this app is amazing I would recommended this app. When I use this app i dont no how to talk to someone but that cake app videos gives repeted key expressions. That is you have to gain more. Thank you so much
Thank you for sharing your response! Here are some corrections for you:
1) I have a lot of apps on my smartphone,' not, 'in'.
2) Do you 'have to' use the app? This means it's an outside obligation, or responsibility. Or, do you simply 'use' the app?
3) '...I don't know how to...' not, '...i dont no how to...'.
Hope this helps you!
I'm a language learner so most of the apps on my phone are educational apps and one of my favourite apps is called Cake, a language learning app. Though it's been around for a while but I really like it. Basically, you download it on you phone and input some persinal information in it. Then, you can choose the topic you want to learn and tap into it. A list of movie clips will appear for you to watch. By watching a lot different contexts you can embed the new words into your memory immediately. In other words, you can internalize what you are studying right away. It does many things. It helps you to evaluate the number of vocabularies that you have learnt and teaches you new words and idioms through movie clips - so you will memorize them more easily and be able to retrieve them in your speaking and writing. That way, your learning is fun because you feel like you are watching films and the app will explain everything for you freely. What I also like about this app is its simplicity. It's super intuitive. Its interphere is user-friendly and easy to navigate. You don't need to be the most tech-savy person to use it, even a technophie can manage to get the most out of it. I highly recommend it, especially for intermediate students. It may be a little bit challenging for starters though if you try, you can get very satisfying result.
I'm currently using it too, best apps.
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughtful response! Here are a few suggestions for your writing:
1) 'Though it's been around for a while, I really like it,' not, 'Though it's been around for a while but I really like it'.
2) '...and input some personal information,' not, 'input some persinal information in it'.
3) '...and tap it,' or, '...and tap the icon,' not, 'tap into it'.
Hope this helps you!
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 Thank you so much. You know what? I really like trying to leave a comment for high quality videos such as yours. I personally find it one of the best ways to activate what I have learnt especially when I got some replies because it makes my learning more interactive, which I believe is the key to language fluency.
Me too. Me and my kids had turn to using CAKE to help us learn languages. After knowing OOE, we now use both to help us learn and speak English better.
pls the name of app
Hi guys, Oli started to talk much faster than at the beginning of his career. Katie keep good pace pronouncing every single word. Just to give my opinion as English learner.
Hello! Can you explain me the meaning of "Casual"? and How can I use it in sentences?
Thank you all!
You're welcome!
Thanks for the lessons,awesome! I want them for my students, how can I get (download) them and use it in my class while offline? means can I take them into the flash disk and project them in the class?
thanks
We're glad you like the lessons, Joseph! We don't have videos available for download, but you're welcome to share the UA-cam videos.
At time 13:36 Katie used a bit unusual construction (Do you Ever use). Why it wasn't (Have you ever used), I think in this case it's more relevant mode of time.
Hi Arman. Good question. 'Do you ever use' refers to the present simple, meaning currently. 'Have you ever used' refers to the past until now, meaning in the past. Therefore, 'do you ever use' is more relevant here. Hope this helps you!

Hello ,
First of all I would like to thank you for making this video because it's quite useful for me to improve my language.
I downloaded an app yesterday. That's a kind of scanner app . It's good but i don't like that so much because some features are not available which i see in my previous app. And also the scanning quality is not too god .That's why I don't like.
Thanku.
Hi there. Thanks for sharing a great response! Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) Was the name of the app 'Tomorrow'? If so, you can say, 'I downloaded an app called Tomorrow.'
2) 'It's good but I don't like it so much because...' not, 'It's good but i don't like that so much because...'
3) '...which I saw in my previous app...' not, '...which i see in my previous app...'
Hope this helps you!

The most app i dislike .. WhatsApp ...why! Maybe because it taking more time from me than it should be ...i mean it's not only chatting with family or with friends no ..i mean everyone can reach you anywhere at anytime and that must bring more work to you .. especially via the groups ...and simply you can't ignore it .. sometimes it makes life more complicated ....But in general i don't enjoy using an app more than other .. it's become boring these days ... everything now by online!!!😓😤😬
Thanks for watching and sharing your comment, Asma. Here are a few suggestions for your writing:
1) 'The app I dislike most is WhatsApp,' not, 'The most app i dislike .. WhatsApp'.
2) '...because it takes more time,' not, 'it taking'.
3) '...using one app more than another,' not, '...using an app more than other'.
Hope this helps you!

Oli, the sound of your recording is not clear, you sound like a robot😒
Thanks for the feedback, Elena.
Hi there! I've noticed that all of the people presentanting those OOE clips are using their hands in abundance. In many cases it looks so unnatural, exaggerated, and kind of annoying. What purpose does that serve? It doesn't make it less monotous or dull. I presume that the whole content is scripted, and don't get me wrong it's a good one, however the teachers are terrible at acting/presenting it. The other thing is the quality of these videos. Please make sure to invest in good microphones and hire someone who knows how to record sound properly. Editing leaves a lot to be desired as well. I hope that my feedback will help you to improve this channel, cause as I mentioned your content is great and beneficial for many English students. Thanks for teaching us. Take care!
Thanks for the feedback! We always appreciate some constructive criticism :)
With hands, we can't win. If we don't move, then people complain that we look wooden or robotic. If we move them too much, people complain that it's annoying. If we move them just the right amount, no one notices or cares.
Acting? Yes, we're not actors. Plus, the videos are made by a distributed team - everything is shot separately and edited together. That creates a lot of challenges.
I'm aware of the issues with sound, and they bug me also. However, it doesn't seem that viewers care all that much. I would prefer that the videos have no issues with sound, lighting, etc., but spending the extra time/money to go from 95% right to 99% doesn't seem to make a difference. Videos with better production values don't get more views or more positive feedback.
Do you have any specific points about editing? Suggestions are always welcome.
Anyway, thanks again for taking the time to comment.
Hi Oli and Kate I am very glad to tell you wonderfull English lesson for me. Thank you so much🪷🌈🙏🧕 Now I am using one's an app I really like it is English conversation In this app you improve your English skills.

Hi Shaik. Thanks for watching and sharing your response. We're so happy you enjoyed the lesson. Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) 'Now one app I'm using that I really like is...' not, 'Now I am using one's an app I really like it is...'
2) '...listen to conversation,' not, '...listen conversation.'
3) '...two characters,' not, 'character.'
Hope this helps you!
Thank you
