    What an amazing teacher. The world needs more of these kinds of people. Lays it out there, in such a way where you want to dive deeper into learning just because of his approach. Absolute genius and kind-hearted person.

    Hello James, you are very entertaining, you have a good sense of humor, and I am almost able to follow you, "Laugh Out Loud!" I am a writer. Top Shelf Writing is the name of my company. I'm a Start-Up and trying to do lots of stuff all at once (too many hats). One of the things on my list is to learn how to use an apostrophe when using an s.
    Finding you on UA-cam, you were my first pick, I got lucky. You were also the second video down on the UA-cam list. I usually go through several, until I find one that works, if I find one that works. I found one that works!
    My only problem following you is that I am exhausted. There's also a lot more good stuff there that I want to learn. It goes much deeper than I realized. But yes, I can follow you, I need a break before I finish it, that's all. Thank you much. - Jeff

    Not completely understood piece with "both Alice's opinion and my opinion had changed". In my understanding, word "both" indicates that these opinions goes *together* because it both making same work ("changing") and it suppose to be case 3.1 - "someone and someone's house is nice". Could you please explain this part? Thank you.

    i would like to mention that i got 6/8. I made a mistakes in 2 and 7 question.
    In 2 i didn’t know that it is possible to have two “s” beside to it.
    In 7 … I didn’t noticed that the sentence was about brothers and sisters. I mean “as plural”
    Thank you James for this great lesson.
    I wish you all the best in English learning.
    Ps. James’s tie is nice. It suits him.
    No more confused :) Thank you again :)

    Dear James, I would first like to tell you that you have a beautiful personality and enjoyed just listening to you. Secondly, your lessons are invaluable to a person who either want's to learn English or already knows but, as in my case, wanted to know the correct way to spell the plural for American's or Americans.'
    And lastly, for the ignorant in the world, the quote you unintentionally are a fine example of, "Don't judge a book by it's cover" show's that intelligence is most likely a gene related issue passed on, or not, from the maternal, paternal or even both parents and is Not conditional upon someone's race. A person or even a animal etc, can't be taught intelligence, but definitely Can be taught intelligent things and behaviors.

  • @stevt77
    @stevt77 3 роки тому

    I have an issue with the last sentence in your example. You said there’s an apostrophe for bedrooms because it says, “Only the bedroom’s color was nice”. That could also mean Alice thought only the bedrooms, as in all the bedrooms in house, had a nice color and all other rooms did not. Whereas the apostrophe should be after the S (bedrooms’). Is that correct?
