More than having access to two types of language, American English and British English, the main thing is the conversation between you. While other English channels on UA-cam only have one teacher speaking the entire time. The dialogue between the two of you really makes the channel very efficient and dynamic for those learning the language.
I really liked the channel since I discovered it recently, and it's already one of my favorites.
Thanks so much for your lovely comment! We're really glad you enjoy studying with us and we hope you like our future ones just as much!
So am I
I realy like the conversation between you.

Hi Kat and Mark, great lesson! I enjoyed it! I understand much better now who an Acquaintance is. In the other hand, I had not heard about Flaky Friends, but I understand now who that is in a group of friends. Sometimes it is myself! Blessings and best wishes. Thank you!
Haha it's okay to change plans every now and again - only if it happens too much you might be in danger of becoming a flake!

Thank you for this nice lesson! For me the word “flaky” is new and I like because it shortly and correctly describes the whole enough complex situation. It seems that we have not only one word for this in our language.
Flaky is a good word for describing certain people for sure! Thanks for joining us in class today ☺️
Your podcasts are very useful lessons. Keep going, and thanks a lot 😊
Thanks so much! We’re happy that you like them ☺️
old friends, we have been friends for ages(we are friends forever, we go way back), oldest friend, best
friend, best mate, a close
friend, Acquaintance(friend but not close), mutual friend, a friend of a friend, (while telling a story about them), flaky friend (if you invite for something they won't come in that case can use this - he/she bit flake
Well done getting down all the vocabulary!
Hello, my dear teachers. Ever since I met you both, I have a great respect and love for you. The biggest thing that connects me to you is that you believe in your sincere sincerity. My dear teacher Mark's dignified, calm and sincere stance and my dear teacher Kat's overwhelming excitement, Her sincerity, cheerfulness and the fact that she is always full of motherly and caring attitude towards her students amaze me once again. I hope you have a happy, peaceful and successful life in every aspect of your life.
Wow - thank you so much for such kind words! We really appreciate your support and we're super glad you found us and enjoy our videos! It gives us a lot of motivation to keep making new lessons and share them with yourself and all our students :)

Interesting suggestion! We have been talking about a grammar course lately, so its good to know our students have some interest in it already
The most thing makes me feel the English is easy just when you speak with clear pronunciation.😂💙

My favorite vocabulary phrase from today: “We’ve been friends for ages” “A friend of a friend”, “acquaintance”, and “flaky”.
Awesome! Thanks for joining us today!!

Thanks for studying with us!
Morning guys ❤
Hi good morning! We're just finishing our day over here, have a nice morning!
@highlevellistening I'll kick off my day and you'll definitely hit the sack ...Have a good night guys
I only have one best friend. She's my friend from school. 😂😊
That's so nice! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for this helpful Episode! How do you call someone who is not your husband but the Partner you live with? Greetins maria😅
Great question! Actually I think you already said it: "My partner."
"My partner" is very versatile. It can be a romantic partner that you have been with a long time.
Male or female = "My partner"
Married or Unmarried = "My partner"
Same sex couples use "My partner" as well
For example:
"Let me introduce you to James - he's my partner."
"This is my partner, Melissa."
It's very easy and flexible!
Hope that helps!
@@highlevellistening Thank you both!
🖐
hi!
🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸❤❤❤❤
:😀 😃
Amazing but please be attention to the subtitles we need the line more clear cuz i think in the middle of this topic the letter's are connected together
Hi sorry our subtitle program seems to have made a mistake after we downloaded the video, and it couldn’t be fixed this time, but we’ll keep an eye out for the next one.
Thanks for letting us know!
I work in supermarket, so I have a lot of time to learn. I hope english don't kill me
😅😅😅 we hope it doesn’t kill you either! Step by step and day by day you can do it 👏
11:22 is really cute and funny 😂😂😂, can a woman call another woman as a mate in British or not ?
It’s definitely used most often men to men but women use it too for men and women! My friend, close friend, a friend from work are all common too
@@highlevellistening ooohh I understood thankyou so much for replying and clearing my doubts 😇😍
I'm the flaky friend 😅😅
Haha oh no! We're sure you're more dependable than you think!
