Ronnie
i just wanted to ask you about my situation…..ok i understand every single word in the inglish language but when i speak it people be like uh? i need to improve my speaking
it was Rick James who did the song “Superfreak,” it must have been in the late 70s.
Mc Hammer sampled the famous bassline from “Superfreak” and turned it into his “Can’ touch this” in 1992 or 1993, if I remember it correctly.
Not that this is superimportant, I just thought I’d share that info.
hi… Ronnie
I come from thailand. I like to learn english with you from youtube. But sometime I don’t understand when you said. I know I have to leran english more than this. I’m try. I hopr that, one day I can speak english like you. Take care yourself. See you soon.
Hello everybody. I’m new student on this site.Now I know another ..bad word.. and will use it instead of .. f**king.. and vers versa.Thanks for lesson. BR.
I would like to thank you for the effort u put in this lessong.
I’ve learnt something in a fun way.
Would like to join your lesson on Skyp.
Have a good day.
Could you please enlighten us if there are other teachers who offer this service to practice with them , and what would be the cost for each hour of online practice, also are there any interactive classes for more than one candidate at the same time so that we benefit from brainstorming and different ideas and inquiries raised by others?
Thanks
I’m sorry, but I don’t know of any other teachers who offer such a service.
OK I’m an ESL teacher…love your stuff…freakin’ great. Don’t agree with the word ‘slang”. This word & derivations has been in wide usage since the 60s. And what about “clothes freak” pizza freak” for a positive, enthusiastic fan of something…?
Dear. Teacher Lonney
Hi, are you happy today? I hope so.
and thanks for teaching me.
I have a question about your behavior on this video.
What is your gesture mean?
I can describe like below sentence.
you made a “V” by using your finger.
like photo pose.
If you face Digital Camera, you may make a smiling and make a V finger and also you say “cheese.”
What is your V mean?
even sometimes you bended your finger.
like rabbit ear.
IT IS VERY GOOD TO HAVE TEACHERS LIKE YOU. YOU HAVE TOLD ABOUT ONLY ONE WORD AND IT HAS SO MUCH OF MEANING I HOPE I GET MORE WORD BUT POSITIVE. YOU TEACH VERRRRRRRRRY WELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL THAN IT WILL HELP ME IN EXAMS

Hello Teacher, your teaching style is too good!
I like it very much and I would also be happy if you send me your skype address so that I can discuss with you on some matters.
Thank you a lot!
Thank you very much for your lesson. Your accent is very good so very very easy to understand; Please would you train us with strong accents: Scotich, American,Australian etc Thank you very much
I’m sorry, I cannot train you in different accents! I only have my accent! You will have to listen to native Scottish, American and Australian speakers to learn!
Hi ,Thank`s for this lesson, Slang is complicated and difficult to understand ,It needs to live in the place used it because I know slang present in all countries as in Egypt my country the slang differ from place to place but in Arabic .
Dear Ronnie… thanks for teaching. Please confirm if I say “What a freaking video” or “Suddenly he has been freaking out of controls” or “They have freak style”. Kindly confirm these tenses are correct?? Thanks
You have to say “He has been freaking out of control” (not controls) The other two are okay, but I have never heard “They have freak style”!
Ok! I will try!
We use that in the present perfect tense to talk about a past action!
We use this when there is no time marker, eg; yesterday,last week… If there is a time marker we use simple past! No time marker — use present perfect!
thank you 4 afast replay
thank you very much
is that right if i say
I saw my sister yestarday .
I’vent seen her ronnie :p .
thank you again :)
wow, you are so great! i really liked the funny way you teach us everything! keep doing more videos, ok? I’m brazilian and i entered here today for the first time! congrats!
hin ronnie i have question plzz
when we can Pronounce the c latter k and when we can Pronounce clatter cccc
plzz ronnie help me
thank you
you very extrem helpful and your video very useful its funny and helpful and you speake slowly and clear and simple words soo any beginners can understand what you try learn them .
It is difficult when to know if the letter is said “K” (hard k sound) or C (like s). The only thing I can tell you is that
If there is one of “a,o,u” after “c” , “c” is pronunced as the sound “k” in cat-cow-cut. If there is one of “e,i” after “c” , “c” is pronunced as the sound “s” in celtic-cinema. However, not all words follow this rule. This is just a general rule!
hi roonie .can i know when can i say i have been and when can i say i had been? plzzzzz waiting ur answer eagerly. with my best wishes for u lovely roonie
Have been (or have + past participle) is present perfect. Present perfect we use to talk about the past. Eg.. I have been to London. I haven’t been to India.
Had been (or had + past participle) is PAST perfect. We use past perfect to talk about 2 (or more) events that happened in the past. Eg….. I had eaten an apple, then I saw the elephant. The event that happened first, we put into past perfect, the 2nd event, we use simple past!
Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
thaks roonie for ur suffecient answer.i would like to know what is the difference between used to and accustomed. with my best regards my smart teacher.
Used to means you did this in the past and quit doing it. When I was a child I used to play with dolls. (I don’t play with dolls now)
Accustomed to means that you are doing/have done something that is unusual or uncomfortable, but with time you became comfortable with. I grew accustomed to taking my shoes off at the door. Accustomed also means familiar!
hello,I’ve found your program recently ,your methods are great,I dont know where is your school?I wish i could talk english as a native.I like you and i follow your lesson.
I’m 8 years old .I fun with this lesson and i like the song in eng vid. I like teaching me. I am a stdent in thai land but I like to learn english that why, I learn english. I like engish.
Hi Ronnie i embarrassing when i ask my question but really i seroius for learning engilsh & if i shy ask something miss understand not learn. So,i search as you told us in googel search to know “Super Freak” but not know i get this meaning or no.when i was married from girlfriend going to bed to get “Super Freak”. Correct me if i wrong & tell me true if i right
Hello!
First NEVER be embarrassed to ask something!
“Freak” in the song “Super Freak” talks about how a girl is “kinky” or super sexy (in bed).
Freak in English has many different meanings as I said in the video. It can replace the “bad” word F$ck, but we use the “f-word” to talk about how great something is. English slang can be confusing but you have to understand that one word can have many different meanings!
Hope that helps! Good luck.
super freak= verey sexy is not ???
& you make me confusing coz i was understand “freak” is bad word this meaning same meaning this word “fucking” but when someone had been aske you in commant [You can say I think this is a freaking good lesson!
] i gett diffrent meaning for same word once in veido is bad & once in commant is good . maybe i’m stupied student but need to learning & serious for that
hi miss hoe are you…?
your lessons are very usefull for me and not only me i recommrnded my friends also.and you doing good job…
ok now i ask you doubt for me
how can diffrenciate this past participle, simple past, present perfect,..?
Unfortunately, The only way to know the differences between the past participle (p.p) and simple past is to memorize the verbs!
Present perfect is always either I, They, We, You (have + p.p) or He, She, It (has + p.p.)!
Hope that helps!
I´d like to know if all teachers who have in this site work in the same English school.I intend to study in Canada and I would love to class with you.
NO, we all work at different English schools! The school I work at is very $$$ and there is no guarantee that if you come to my school that you will get me as your teacher. If you are interested, I offer private lessons if you are in Toronto!!!!! Let me know if you are interested!!!!!!!!
hai! Ronni, hope u r fine and pray for it.
it was a presious one for me
i misunderstood this word meaning like ” freak or freak guy” is nice to call somebody
Hi Ms Ronnie!a million thank you for your exellent lessons they are really helpful. i have problem with these alphabets in reading, i dont know if you already have any lessons on these alphabets? a,when to pronounce it as (e)./ i as (ai),sometime (i)./ and e sound as isometime it’s sound like an (er) as presentation .is there any roules for there? thanks in advance.
Unfortunately, there are so many differences with vowel sounds that I cannot begin to tell you an easy way to learn them! I would suggest learning vocabulary and how to say each word! In the meantime, I will try to find a resource for you! Also, you can search on the internet – “vowel sounds in English”.
oohhh,,u are the best teacher ever.. I watches ur video everyday…before I met u, it was hard to learning english..and now, all about english is really fun ..i’m enjoy because of you..thx…
I loved this lesso as other all. This site is very good. I am Brazilian and want to know people from other coutries. Plese, send me an e-mail: tiago_queiroz18@hotmail.com
Dear, EngVid!
Why do use “eating borscht” here in such meaning. Borsch (without t) is a national dish in Ukraine. That’s offensive for my country.
Hello ivan:
I don’t think that they’ve used that phrase to offend your country. It could have been an alternative that came up out of the blue :) Let me tell you that I’m interested in getting to know about your culture, because I’m interested in a Ukrainian girl :)
Just chill out man!
when to use word different and word difference
thank you so much
The word “different” is an adjective and it is used to describe a noun.
The word “difference” is a noun.
Ex.. I have a different dog than she does.
What’s the difference between an ape and a monkey?
hi ronnie you are really wonderful teacher and i like your style of teaching and i wanna ask you about the something is that right if i say i have no or wrong
i like this …teacher ronnie …. good
Ronnie very very clown teacher …. I liked your style of teaching tnxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx teacher … merci ma prof

Hi, you are actually a great teacher so do you recommend taking the lessons of the above-mentioned Advertisement “speak English Fast” as an advanced English course? thank you in advance…
I have heard somewhere that focusing on too much grammar will slow down your communication skills.what do you think Mam?My primary focus is to learn to communicate properly.Do I need to focus on grammar?Am not too strong in grammar(I knew the basics).I have studied all my life in English Medium school and College.But I can’t properly communicate just because We don’t have given training in talking.Do u have any tips?
I agree that too much focus on grammar will impede your communication ability. I learned Japanese by talking/listening. I did not learn any grammar but I could communicate with people!!!

” I can’t imagine how much we were freakin’ out ”

Hi Ronnie!
How about saying ” I like those shoes so freaking bad “?
By the way, I’ve heard a song sang by Bruno Mars – The Lazy Song, and he did mention this word ” Cause in my castle I’m the FREAKING MAN “, I kinda don’t get this. I think that’s bad meaning, right?
And thanks a million for your lessons too, I’m very interested in videos that you’ve made about ” Slang “, they are really cool :) Hope you’ll make more about it ^^ And your voice is slow and clear enough for me to follow, i love it :)
hii ronnie….thanx for teaching the lesson about freak……u knw this word was really confused for me but now its o…kk.. n one more thing i want to sae…..its really fun to learn from you

Hi Ronnie,
it was Rick James who did the song “Superfreak,” it must have been in the late 70s.
Mc Hammer sampled the famous bassline from “Superfreak” and turned it into his “Can’ touch this” in 1992 or 1993, if I remember it correctly.
Not that this is superimportant, I just thought I’d share that info.

Dear Ronnie,
Could you please enlighten us if there are other teachers who offer this service to practice with them , and what would be the cost for each hour of online practice, also are there any interactive classes for more than one candidate at the same time so that we benefit from brainstorming and different ideas and inquiries raised by others?
Thanks
I’m sorry, but I don’t know of any other teachers who offer such a service.
Thank you for your kind and prompt response.
Hi,

Hi ,Thank`s for this lesson, Slang is complicated and difficult to understand ,It needs to live in the place used it because I know slang present in all countries as in Egypt my country the slang differ from place to place but in Arabic .
Good Lesson
can u teach me “gone & went” and “suppose & if”..
ur teaching is gud, thank u:)
Sure… “gone” is the past participle of go. “Went” is the simple past. So you say “I have gone” (present perfect), or “I went” (simple past)!
thank you
I like thus lesson
I hope some one be my friend
Dear Ronnie… thanks for teaching. Please confirm if I say “What a freaking video” or “Suddenly he has been freaking out of controls” or “They have freak style”. Kindly confirm these tenses are correct?? Thanks
You have to say “He has been freaking out of control” (not controls) The other two are okay, but I have never heard “They have freak style”!
I really like this song!!!!
I just wanna say that this is freaking good!!
(is this right?;; I’m not quite sure;;)
Thank u so much!!

thank you 4 the lesson
cAN u plz give us a lesson about when we use this kind of sintens “I’ve heard” the subjecut + have + the v in p.p
Ronnie, tell me what is better way of learning english… by listening, or reading ??? Thanks in advance
It depends… if you want to to learn grammar, reading is best. Speaking is best to learn by listening!
Ok! I will try!
We use that in the present perfect tense to talk about a past action!
We use this when there is no time marker, eg; yesterday,last week… If there is a time marker we use simple past! No time marker — use present perfect!

Have been (or have + past participle) is present perfect. Present perfect we use to talk about the past. Eg.. I have been to London. I haven’t been to India.
Had been (or had + past participle) is PAST perfect. We use past perfect to talk about 2 (or more) events that happened in the past. Eg….. I had eaten an apple, then I saw the elephant. The event that happened first, we put into past perfect, the 2nd event, we use simple past!
Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
thaks roonie for ur suffecient answer.i would like to know what is the difference between used to and accustomed. with my best regards my smart teacher.
Used to means you did this in the past and quit doing it. When I was a child I used to play with dolls. (I don’t play with dolls now)
Accustomed to means that you are doing/have done something that is unusual or uncomfortable, but with time you became comfortable with. I grew accustomed to taking my shoes off at the door. Accustomed also means familiar!
I think this is freak lesson!!! can I say that if I wanna say that this lesson is verry good? please answer it. And thanks a million for you Ronnie :)

hello,I’ve found your program recently ,your methods are great,I dont know where is your school?I wish i could talk english as a native.I like you and i follow your lesson.

Hello! Iam from Malaysia! And yes your videos are really helpful!!:)
I’m 8 years old .I fun with this lesson and i like the song in eng vid. I like teaching me. I am a stdent in thai land but I like to learn english that why, I learn english. I like engish.
I like super freak
Hi Ronnie i embarrassing when i ask my question but really i seroius for learning engilsh & if i shy ask something miss understand not learn. So,i search as you told us in googel search to know “Super Freak” but not know i get this meaning or no.when i was married from girlfriend going to bed to get “Super Freak”. Correct me if i wrong & tell me true if i right
Hello!
First NEVER be embarrassed to ask something!
“Freak” in the song “Super Freak” talks about how a girl is “kinky” or super sexy (in bed).
Freak in English has many different meanings as I said in the video. It can replace the “bad” word F$ck, but we use the “f-word” to talk about how great something is. English slang can be confusing but you have to understand that one word can have many different meanings!
Hope that helps! Good luck.
super freak= verey sexy is not ???
& you make me confusing coz i was understand “freak” is bad word this meaning same meaning this word “fucking” but when someone had been aske you in commant [You can say I think this is a freaking good lesson!
] i gett diffrent meaning for same word once in veido is bad & once in commant is good . maybe i’m stupied student but need to learning & serious for that
thanks for everythings.
Thank you for explaining these. Teenagers know more slang than their teachers. Your lessons are very useful because they are easily understood.
thank you soooooooo much
Thanks for your lessons,but i have one question for you-”super freak” What does it mean?
hi miss hoe are you…?
your lessons are very usefull for me and not only me i recommrnded my friends also.and you doing good job…
ok now i ask you doubt for me
how can diffrenciate this past participle, simple past, present perfect,..?
Unfortunately, The only way to know the differences between the past participle (p.p) and simple past is to memorize the verbs!
Present perfect is always either I, They, We, You (have + p.p) or He, She, It (has + p.p.)!
Hope that helps!
hi ronnie i’m a new in this site and i am not good in english.. i am a pilipina and hard to speak english can you help me
This is a new meaning word for me,I like your method of teaching Ronni.
I´d like to know if all teachers who have in this site work in the same English school.I intend to study in Canada and I would love to class with you.
NO, we all work at different English schools! The school I work at is very $$$ and there is no guarantee that if you come to my school that you will get me as your teacher. If you are interested, I offer private lessons if you are in Toronto!!!!! Let me know if you are interested!!!!!!!!

THANKS FOR TEACHING
Hello Ms. Ronnie,
You are an amazing teacher. I appreciate.
Hi Ms Ronnie!a million thank you for your exellent lessons they are really helpful. i have problem with these alphabets in reading, i dont know if you already have any lessons on these alphabets? a,when to pronounce it as (e)./ i as (ai),sometime (i)./ and e sound as isometime it’s sound like an (er) as presentation .is there any roules for there? thanks in advance.
Unfortunately, there are so many differences with vowel sounds that I cannot begin to tell you an easy way to learn them! I would suggest learning vocabulary and how to say each word! In the meantime, I will try to find a resource for you! Also, you can search on the internet – “vowel sounds in English”.
Cool job!
You are super. I was really having difficulty in understanding the difference. between them,
your TEACHING is amazing.. Thanks..
oohhh,,u are the best teacher ever.. I watches ur video everyday…before I met u, it was hard to learning english..and now, all about english is really fun ..i’m enjoy because of you..thx…

Dear, EngVid!
Why do use “eating borscht” here in such meaning. Borsch (without t) is a national dish in Ukraine. That’s offensive for my country.
Hello ivan:
I don’t think that they’ve used that phrase to offend your country. It could have been an alternative that came up out of the blue :) Let me tell you that I’m interested in getting to know about your culture, because I’m interested in a Ukrainian girl :)
Just chill out man!
hi ronnie u r a grt teacher ..plz can do a lesson when we use “would”,”could”,”ain’t”

thank you very much to help me for learn english
when to use word different and word difference
thank you so much
The word “different” is an adjective and it is used to describe a noun.
The word “difference” is a noun.
Ex.. I have a different dog than she does.
What’s the difference between an ape and a monkey?
how to prnounce word “ain’t”
thank you so much.

Hi, you are actually a great teacher so do you recommend taking the lessons of the above-mentioned Advertisement “speak English Fast” as an advanced English course? thank you in advance…
Sorry, I do not know that course!
I have heard somewhere that focusing on too much grammar will slow down your communication skills.what do you think Mam?My primary focus is to learn to communicate properly.Do I need to focus on grammar?Am not too strong in grammar(I knew the basics).I have studied all my life in English Medium school and College.But I can’t properly communicate just because We don’t have given training in talking.Do u have any tips?
I agree that too much focus on grammar will impede your communication ability. I learned Japanese by talking/listening. I did not learn any grammar but I could communicate with people!!!
oh my god !!!this lesson was freaking excellent!!!!
Hi Ronny
Thanks for your good lessons.
When we can use the word ?
Is it formal word or casual ?
It is formal and causal! I pulled a prank on you = played a joke/trick.
sorry ,the word is prank

Hi Ronnie!
How about saying ” I like those shoes so freaking bad “?
By the way, I’ve heard a song sang by Bruno Mars – The Lazy Song, and he did mention this word ” Cause in my castle I’m the FREAKING MAN “, I kinda don’t get this. I think that’s bad meaning, right?
And thanks a million for your lessons too, I’m very interested in videos that you’ve made about ” Slang “, they are really cool :) Hope you’ll make more about it ^^ And your voice is slow and clear enough for me to follow, i love it :)
You can say I freaking love those shoes!
I’m the freaking man is not negative, it means that he’s really cool!
i love your entrance it freak me out lol. JK.
wow u came from above. nice entrance. it’s freaking good… :D ijust love it.
Hi Ronnie!
I confused with the prounonciation of the words “automatic” or “automatically” I heart a “r sound” in America pronounciation.
