You are very welcome. Thank you for studying with me and for following my blog. I wish you all the best in your teaching journey. Regards from Massachusetts, USA!

You're welcome. I hope to share more lessons in this series in 2021.

That's lovely to hear. Best wishes to you as you grow your channel and teaching career!

I have been following you for 8 years now- you look more beautiful now. ❤️🙂 Just came across your channel after so long and I was stunned to see you are growing younger, haan! Love from India. ❤️

That's so very sweet of your to say! I'm definitely older than I was back in 2007 when I started all this.

Hi Sergei. Thanks for putting in the extra effort. Suggestion: 1. There is another way to handle it. I prefer to keep my distance from such a person. Retry the test. You definitely are allowed a second chance! :) See you again soon for another lesson.

@@Englishwithjennifer Thank you, Jennifer! I've realized your suggestion. Thinking in the English manner is difficult for me at present. In my sentence originally, I meant something like some distance that is not zero and, unfortunately, couldn't express my thought accurately. As for the test, I'll try to pass it again.

Thanks for the support.

I'm happy if you found it useful. 😊

Thanks for the support. Love your responses. I'll remember the "storms in teacups" phrase. Good point: loans can be all too easily given! Re: swear word. I think I was just hitting keys on the keyboard at that point.

@@EnglishwithjenniferYes, "storm in a teacup" is a good one. A series on the most common idioms would be lots of fun.

You're very welcome.

Regards!

Thank you so much! 🙂

You're very welcome!

Thank you! 😃 I'll share another lesson soon.

You're welcome.. Thank you for studying with me. 😊

Hello! 😊

Thank you very much!

Have you seen my two more recent videos on perfect modals?

@@Englishwithjennifer yes mam! I have watched them

Thank you for the support.

Thanks for the visit!

@@Englishwithjennifer very well spoke in the video . You are polite too

Good approach.

Sounds like you know how awful all the paperwork is!

Thank you for watching.

Hello Marian! First of all, here are all my YT public videos. www.englishwithjennifer.com/students/yt-videos/ Here's info on paid instruction. I'm booked for most of July and August, but you can consider group instruction on Patreon. www.englishwithjennifer.com/book-a-lesson/ We have group debates tomorrow, July 16.

Do you mean you get up early 7 days a week? Suggestion: On work days, I get up early, so I have made it my habit to get up early even on weekends.

hi, is English american?

You'll find my full playlists here. www.englishwithjennifer.com/students/yt-videos/ The intonation playlist is a thorough look at the patterns used in American English. Naming anything, such as streets, cities, or places requires falling intonation. Asking about such things requires rising intonation. Listing such things can use a combination of intonation patterns. I go over intonation in lists. :) My private students get even more practice and more sophisticated exercises.

An idiom is a figurative expression. You can't necessarily guess the meaning from the words alone. An expression is a way of saying something. Idiom = You hit the nail on the head. (You're exactly right.) Expression = I keep trying day after day. (day after day = every day, for a long time) You may find this lesson useful. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eZmDpLGlqd6YhYE.html

Hi. Please remember I have a lesson on reducing adverb clauses to phrases. My suggestion: The politician entered the campus accompanied by many comrades. If you have many questions you'd like to ask, you can consider booking a 30-minute lesson. I'm not able to take on a new student for weekly lessons, but I could schedule a single session this month.

Yes, one phrasal verb can have more than one meaning. In this series, I'll try to focus on the most common ones. :)

I think we all can be students of grammar. There is so much to learn. The recognized experts tend to have significant publications. In any field, you have to ask yourself what your priorities are. Do you want recognition? Do you simply want knowledge?

Yes mam, I want to learn more on grammar topics

I would like to learn the grammar topics in a detailed manner mam.

I'll continue to share videos each week. Please enjoy the ones that have already been published. www.englishwithjennifer.com/students/yt-videos/

By the way, Video and your talking speed is great , I usually understand content of videos when I watch your lesson videos

Not sure what you're asking about, but here's how I'd rewrite those: I rarely sit down and talk. I try to answer his questions slowly. It isn't easy in the fall or winter because school starts at 8.45 a.m. Getting up early isn't easy. (I have to get up before 6 AM now. I understand!)

@@Englishwithjennifer thanks for answer

A load is a heavy amount of something: a load of books, a load of laundry, a load of bricks, a load of trash. Our own body weight is a load to carry. So to take a load off your feet is to sit down and stop carrying around all your weight.

Thanks a lot, my dearest

This has multiple meanings. I don't use "roll over" this way. I suppose they're saying you don't have to compromise or give up. I don't know the full context www.collinsdictionary.com/us/dictionary/english/roll-over

"Roll over" is an interesting one. I always compare this to a command we give to a dog. We ask a dog to roll over, and it does. So, if we are giving a command to someone, and the other person obeys too easily, we could say that they "rolled over" to our wish/command/plan. He does what he is told and should roll over without a fuss. I hope she does not roll over and asks questions before signing that policy.

Hi. I put the list of films/TV shows in the video description.

Can you also add time stamps to those in the description?

Hello!

Here are examples and variations. getyarn.io/yarn-find?text=take%20a%20load%20off%20your%20feet

Hi Francesco. The number of sounds corresponding to a letter or combination of letters isn't infinite. It's a matter of learning the possible spelling patterns for a sound. You can Google spelling patterns or resources for phonics. Many of the common words we simply learn by sight.

@@Englishwithjennifer For example the vowel "a" has the beauty of 9 different sounds, I see written this vowel and which sound should I use? I am completely blown away. So in the English alphabet with 26 characters, 26 sounds do not correspond, but many more. Crazy!

Tip 1 You can learn these kinds of patterns: a + consonant + silent e = long a /eɪ/ as in ate, lane, cape, etc. a + double consonant = short a /eɪ/ as in matter, ladder Again, Google spelling patterns for a review. Phonics resources may also help strengthen your familiarity with sound-letter correspondence. Tip 2 Be sure you're saying the most common words correctly. You'll recognize a lot of them by sight already. A learner's dictionary will confirm the correct pronunciation(s). Then when you see less familiar words, they'll likely have patterns that you're already familiar with. You'll find the most common words in word lists such as the General Service List and the Academic Word List. Tip 3 Reading along with a recording can help. Audio books, read-along videos, and oral reading apps can let you hear a good model while you read the text. This will reinforce the correct pronunciation of words.

Thanks for your suggestions, but they are only a small thing compared to the whole English language phonics problem. Always remaining for example on the vowel "a", in the language there are not only short words like "ate", "lane", etc.. , but also long words like for example "castaway" in which the vowel "a" occurs several times and this vowel must be pronounced in different ways that no one knows. A complicated language!

Yes, but little by little you can learn patterns. Unstressed vowels usually reduce to the schwa sound. that explains why the second "a" in "castaway" is /ə/. Another pattern: "ay" is usually a long "a"."

I struggle with that too.
