Thank you so much, Ben. This video has hit the spot as well. In my last speaking test in the EOI I made a list of useful expressions for agreeing and disagreeing. Agreeing: Certainly, Indeed, Undoubtedly, That´s exactly what I think/feel, I have to side with you on this issue, You can say that again, It´s crystal clear that we are on the same page, etc. Disagreeing: I don´t think so, I don´t see eye to eye with you, I must take issue with that, I´m afraid I don´t really think you are right/that´s right, Obviously, we are on different pages, Undoubtedly, our positions are at opposite poles, I don´t buy it, etc. There are hundreds of them.
Dear Ben, I've bumped into your videos looking for something useful to revise for my C2 examination, which is going to be in 2 weeks and wow!! your calm voice and the concise and effective topics you introduce helped me a lot to brush up my English. Thank you so much!
I just did my speaking test today and was so happy that i was able to use "i beg to differ" hahaah thank u very much for your content, it really helps ! Kisses from Brazil!
@@tothepointenglishwithben. coming back to let you know that i passed the C1 with the great amount of 198 points! Thank you very much again for the great work and patience :))
I won't beg to differ, Ben 😊 This video is 100% useful! Haven't commented the previous one yet, as usual when I don't so right after watching, I'll try to think of it soon...
It is extremely useful, Ben! I haven't heard of some of them. Let me ask you a question, please. Is there any rule or trick to understand when we use "that" and "which", it throws me off cause I've heard many people saying "that" all the time. Would you please explain it if it is possible. Thank you in advance!!!
@@tothepointenglishwithben. I miswritten it the right way is " it couldn't be more truthful what you said " l learned that by an American coach from LA ,she used this way to agree with another girl
Thanks Ben for that, just watched this video before my exam and I believe I nailed it. The only thing that bothered me was the fact that the examiner (the woman who wasn't the interlocuter) was not writing down anything; she was just listening the whole time. That looked quite bizarre since shouldn't she have been writing down phrases and stuff to be able to justify the marks she would give us? Thanks in advance!
I see myself during the collaborative task of the exam My partner: from my point of view blah blah blah Me (very enthusiastic): You've hitted the nail on the head Me (realizing that I messed it up): I ment, I agree with you
You hit the nail in the head when you chose the subject for today's video, although to be honest, you usually do it.Thanks
Thanks, Ricardo!
Hi Ben! "Let's agree to desagree!" is an expression I love so much... ♥️ and "let's put our differences aside"
You nail it again, teacher!! 📌

There are hundreds of them.
Yes, there are many and your examples are great. I recommend memorising just a few to use in the exam.
I love the expression ‘ you’ve hit the nail on the head ‘ , I reckon in Spanish it’s the same ‘ has dado en el clavo ‘ . Thanks Ben for the tips
Yes, I think you're right... spot on! 😉
I've used it in my exam, but instead of saying you've hit the nail on the head I end up saying, "So I think I hit the nail on the head, didn't I?"
I say a lot I concur with u, see eye to eye with someone, take a dim view of( dissaprove) hit the bullseye, options galore
Dear Ben,

Glad you find my videos useful, Valentina! 🙂
Thank you very much! Very useful as usual, such a great teacher!
🙂 Thank you!
You've hit the nail on the head => Diste en el clavo (Spanish version).

Thanks, Brigitte! I always appreciate your comments
Thank you, Ben! Very helpful phrases indeed!
Thanks, Olga! Glad you found them useful 🙂
Thanks for your kind and useful help.❤
thank you very much for this video i learnt a lot from this video
Nice video, Ben. I agree 100% that this is a tricky area for language learners ;)
Thanks Craig (I assume it's Craig 🙂) Hope you're well!
@@tothepointenglishwithben. I'm fine as long I stay glued to the air conditioning, Ben. August isn't my favourite month in Spain. Stay cool, man!
@@LaMansionDelIngles 😆 Tell me about it! I think we're over the worst of it now 🤞
I am with you on that one
Always the best teacher, Ben!
🤗
Bent there's is one I really use oftenly " it couldn't be more truthful "
I agree with you to an extent

Maybe I'll make a video on that soon 🙂
@@tothepointenglishwithben. Thank you Ben!
100% Thanks.👍
I think this: you are really good in this video. Thanks I totally agree with you😂
Thanks 🙂
Very good
what about hands down ?
Bent there's is one I really use oftenly " i couldn't be more truthful "
No, that doesn't express agreement

@@tothepointenglishwithben. does work to agreement the way I wrote now ?

That is quite strange. The assessor usually takes note of the specifics of the candidates' performance as part of the evaluation.
@@tothepointenglishwithben. Exactly my point. She was late, looked unhappy and annoyed. Hope it doesn't affect my mark because I am sure I nailed it.
since yesterday still super
It would be easier to understand if you provided sentence examples. Thank you.
merci super
There're vast range of English teachers who are absolutely better than BEN.
I think, We'll have to agree to disagree.
😁 Nice one!

Great video! I still think it would benefit from a better audio. 😉 Hit me up so that we can fix it.
Cheers!
Loveeeeeeee

I have just seen a mistake in my comment, I meant on the head
That's not how I see it
Really very common mistakes
