Eh, as a native English speaker “there’s” works just fine there. I didn’t bat an eye there. True, “there are” is more grammatically correct, but the amount of natives who speak grammatically correct all the time is pretty low. You’re good bro.

@@blacksunangel636 No problem. What's more important than being grammatically correct is to have what you're saying be understood and that you understand what they're saying. If you go to any English speaking country, especially the UK, the US, and Australia/New Zealand, you'll notice we're very loose with the rules of grammar in the vein of stuff like your "there's" example. We do that sort of thing quite often. And frankly, you probably understand that rule better than most English speakers lol.

I love the real situation lesson. It makes me know that real US speaking is still hard for me. Anyway in Thailand, we seldom make appointment for doctor. If it is only small disease like fever or cold. We can go directly to drugstore and pharmacist can choose medicine for us without any prescription. And if you just exam your eye for buying eyeglasses or contact lenses. You don't need to see the eye doctor. You just go to the eyeglasses shop, exam your eye and choose eye frame. Eye doctor for us is like when you really have problem or disease with your eyes.

And lots of new teachers over and over again appear on the internet. This teacher Vanessa had less than a million subscribers when I first come across her channel. I was even surprised a bit by the fact of relativity small number of her subscribers because I considered her a good teacher.
