I’m the first who leaves a response!) My goal is to learn English very well and I’m on the target! James what about conditionals? Maybe you will explain in your next video about 3 types of conditional sentences? And one more topic you can teach us is wish/If only. I think these themes are difficult and it would be great if you explain them? Thank you for the lesson, some idioms were handy for me and I promise, I will use them in my speech!
Alena, I’ll explain you all 4 conditional tenses, and I hope it’s not too late, I’ve just seen your comment.
First of all I’m going to explain you zero conditional. Zero conditional is used when we talk about things that will happen for 100%. For example: If you put your finger into the fire, it hurts.
The first conditional we use for about 50-90% of certainty. Em. If you come to my house, I’ll be happy.
The second conditional we use to talk about imaginary situations. Em. If you came to my house, I would be happy. So that’s not going to happen, but if it happend, I’d be happy.
Finally, the third conditional we use to regret something that we didn’t or did in the past. Ex. If I hadn’t gone to that party, I wouldn’t have met you.
Now, you must learn the structure for all these tenses, and to take lots of examples in order to master it. Hope this helps. Take care.

Hello Mr.James, I’m from Việt Nam and I’m a student. I find difficult to learn by heart the phrasal verbs, can you suggest some ways? Thank you!
hello)

good luck!))
Hi James , I’m suzan . I’m instructor of English in Egypt .. I love your acting,your teaching methods,your spirit, your using of the board,your paintings,and your jokes with every lesson … You provide me with many information and many teaching methods . Thank you really … I watched most of your lessons .. I like them all .. I thik you are the best teacher among all teachers on this website … Thumb up
hi suzan I just want to inform that you can’t say many information(because we use many with count nouns and information is non-count noun)
it’d be better if you say:
a lot of information.
good luck
thanks it helped me so much … but sometimes I couldn’t understand what he spoke … because it’s too fast for me, I’m beginner after all … hehe
