Hello teacher!! i just wanna tell ya that u r an excellent one, i’ve been learnin’ a lot through u. This lesson was great ‘coz 2 be honest i didn’t know anything about the word “sometime” .. i’m wondering if u can tell me some tips 2 improve my listening ‘coz that’s the most difficult for me ,,, take care ..
Try to get hold of some English learning materials designed specially to help you improve your listening skills. Start very easily, with a short passage at a level you can understand and then go forward from there. You can do it! Also, have fun with the language. Sing along with the songs, watch some shows, and so on.
Hi Rebeca, “sometime” I will got good inglish if I follow your sometimes listened suggestion: ….”Keep working in English”…
Many thanks for spending your time.Best Regards
Hi Dear Teacher. As always, your lessons are very nice and very clear your explanation, but I have a question. Could I use: “some time” or “some times”, and if those is possible, their meanings are different than “sometime” and “sometimes”.
A great hug from Chile.
“Some time” means something different. For example:
I have some time before my exam, so I’m going to have lunch.
Every day he spends some time teaching his son how to read.
“Some times” is also different from what is explained in the video lesson.
For example:
There are some times in life when you just don’t know what to do.
I dont know how i thank u for ur help
could do me a favour i wanna know whats difference between two words in meaning “like”and “such”i know the right structure grammer for them as u know”like”comes b4 noun or pronoun and “such” comes noun or adj+noun. also i know whats difference between “as & like”and “so & such”as u know but i wanna u give tips or if u can do lesson between “such and like” excatly even though i know “like” use for similer and “such” for emphsise but im still confused about them in meaning.
i hope u get my idea and help asap
thanks for everything in indeed

shouldn’t the correct title mean “confusing words” rather than “confused words”? Words cannot be confused, but they can cause confusion.

I think we are both right, in different ways. We mean, “commonly confused words”.

thank you Rebecca for what you offered to us about learning english .would you mind I get your email please to ask you in sometime about english please.and you will find me good friend I promise you that.and thank you
Rebeca , good morning . I am here , to suggest a new lesson . Why don’t you create many sentences to be completed with for or to .
E.g: I do it for you / I will send the e-mail to you and so on. Do you remember that lesson you did about the use of do and make ? After watching your lesson , I really understood , that’s why I suggest this one above , because I have caught myself in trouble in how to use these two words to and for , but if you do one lesson about it , I am sure that I and anyone else will not have problem with this anymore .
Please sleep on it .
All the best to you .
Thanks, Ricardo, for the suggestion. I will try my best to put together a lesson on that. You are right that many students confuse these two little prepositions.
Dear Rebecca! I use to use those words from your lesson intuitively. And now I know the exact rules for using them. Thank you so much for helping to improve my English! Best regards.
thanks for all lessons! I am now joint to this cours.
I wold lick to start the lessons but I cant find all the lessons by number I mens (from A to Z) so I request you cindly that advise me how I shold larn esly.

tnx teacher rebecca for teaching us. when i was 9 years old, i thought that sometime and sometimes are the same, but i was wrong when i ask my teacher, but,she didn’t tell me the meaning of sometime and sometimes, this short video is a big help for me. thanks a lot teacher rebecca.god bless you…=D
Dear Mam Rebbeca,
A couple of days ago, I visited this website and found it very useful to improve my English proficiency. It has helped me a lot in the preparation for IELTS. There were many confusions in my mind regarding many words which have been removed now after watching these videos. Could you please deliver some lectures on how to grasp the reading and comprehension skills by giving some sample passages.
I feel some difficulty in the reading module. Sometimes very long passages make me confused and I become unable to answer the question associated with the passages. Kindly lend me hand in this regard.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

You can find specific help regarding the IELTS exam on one of our other websites, goodluckielts.com.
I wish you all the best with your exam. Be careful to study how to answer each of the reading comprehension questions as they can be pretty tricky. There are many exam preparation textbooks which can help you as well.
sorry but i dont get it. . my score is 1 over 6 to bad. . . :(
I am sorry you had difficulty with that. Please watch the video again a few times or else try to read about these two words from a good grammar book. Whenever we have difficulty, we should keep on until we find an explanation that gets through to us and helps us to understand. You can do it, Mary.
Thanks again. Hope to see more lessons with you.
You are great.
By the way, I have a question : How can I see if there is a reply on my comments or an answer ? Can I have a button for my comments and your answers ? Thank a lots. See you, Cata!
wow! i got 100 6/6, thank you for the wonderful lessons, you’re such a big help to us who needs help on how to improved thier english. i have a question. how to pronouns often? is it often or offen? i’m little bit confused. but i usually use offen.
Thanks for your feedback. The American way is to pronounce that word like “offen”, but people do use the other pronunciation, “often”, as well.
Hi Rebecca, thanks for this class. There is a ruge difference between this words. I’ve been studing english for three years and I stiil hadn’t seen it before.
Hey want to ask something about the pronounciatiopn OF WORD comment,IS IT PRONOUNCE AS cumment ,OR CO-MMENT,HERE MANY PEOPLE SAY cO-MENTT,BUt i usually prefer to PRONOUNCE AS CUM-MENT,which word is more preferabale dear,plz help me
thank you rabica for all the useful lessons you provide us. my question is
can i put sometime in the end of the sentence…e.g I wish to visit Italy for tourism in the future sometime.
is this right?
Could you please teach us how to divide words into syllables? I know it has to do with the pronunciation, which makes it very difficult, but with practice I’m sure I can learn it. After all that’s how I learned how to pronounce the ED ending of the regular verbs. Pratice! Now I can almost do it without thinking about the rule.
Hi,un4tunately i cant catch the videos ever n never bcoz some internet problems in the country,,is it possible 2 u 2 explain 2 me d difference between sometime n sometimes plz?!!
I checked d coments but i couldent catch.
Goodluck with ur job.
Thanks, Rebecca I really appreciate your cordiality, i tried 3 times to get 100% score on this quiz, but it seems my comprehension is decreasing, i don’t know what to do.

Dear Rebbeca
I had not heard and i had not seen “sometime” anywhere so i did not know difference between them.
thanks so much
me neither…thank you!
I did great with the quiz ! Merci Rebecca :)
“some time” and “sometime” have the same meaning?
Great lesson Rebecca!
I have a suggest: you could do a lesson about the verb “get”? It have many means and often get lost in his interpretation.
thanks so much!
Thanks for watching and for the idea, Bruno. Will do my best to record a lesson on that useful word!
All the best to you.
Rebecca I love your quizzes.Sometimes, I don’t get all right.Most of the times, I get 100% right!:)

Hi! You shouldn’t have to be logged in to watch the video. Are you able to watch other YouTube videos, or is it just this one that won’t play?
I did great with the test, thank you ..
thanks allot
Thanks Teacher Rebecca! :)
Thanks. To God be the Glory.

thank you so much
Hi Rebecca! Can I say MAYBE when it’s uncertainty?
Yes, certainly.
You can use the word “maybe” by itself.
For example,
A: Are you going to the party?
B: Maybe.
Otherwise, in a sentence you need to use “may” or “might”.
I may go to the party.
I might go to the party.
All the best, Eliete.
