Hi. Teacher Ronnie, can you upload some videos on the topic of exam? Please……. ^_^
Awesome video, thank you very much.
Hey Ronnie , i was trying to find a lesson for know how to “negociate“ the rent price.. Do you understand what i am trying to tell? So i was thinking in say for example.. “Originally my idea was to stay here for more than six months.. so i was just wondering if you could make the rent price for two hundred“ .. Is this acceptable? Could the people understand? Thanks in advance
I understand what you mean but unfortunately, it is very difficult, if not impossible, to bargain with a landlord! Try though, you might get lucky!
how to use ‘went’ and ‘gone’
Went = you left and came back. (return trip)
Gone = you left but have not returned (one way trip).
hi teacher can you upload some video please i just want to see…..

Ronnie,
it is possible to speak something like that: “I want to buy a apartament?” Or I always have to speak Condo when I refer to a buy the place?
Thank you so much.
In Canada, you cannot buy an apartment. I don’t know about USA/UK/NZ/AUS.

Dear Madam,Namaste I’m from Nepal
i usually watch this program to learn, speak and write for my personal English language development. we can watch an intermediate level course step by step and if there is any more website like this please help me with giving new programmer. in the, anyway i want to give you the great thanks just for you.
hey Ronnie!! I’ve seen some of your lesson and all of them are awesome. Is there a possibility of getting your video on a DVD with the entire lesson on it.
9 outta 10, thank u ronnie you’re the best Teacher ever
i enjoy all this lesson and my vocabulary is going to be more rich.
teacher, i want to know why bachelor apartment is not only for a men. i saw, you said bachelor is not for sharing?
I’m not Ronnie, but I suppose two people can share a bachelor… And on the other hand, it would be for a person (not for a man or for a woman…. I think).
A bachelor is very small in Canada so it is only for 1 person – either man or woman. “Bachelor? means an unmarried man!
“Bachelor” means an unmarried man!
very good teacher. I love to watch your Vedio.

I am Sona Sharma from India.I have been a member of this educational site for more than one year.I wanna get my basic concept about English tenses cleared by you.After reading newspaper,watching movies,chatting with people online, I have figured out that an action word known as verb is the most important word in English that I need to know to express an action.Imagine,I feel thirsty.I need to have some water to quench my thirst.Then I perform an action called “drinking”.If I am not familiar with this word ,I can’t express what I want.People simply use this action word in different tenses to refer to different point of time like I drank a glass of water after returning from work yesterday as my throat had dried up.In my previous sentence ,I have used it in the past tense to express that I am not thirsty now but I was..
I am just a begginer.plz help me to learn this language well and also check out my sentences
Yes, your idea about tenses is correct! Very good!
you are the greates techer
hi lovely teacher
pls tell me what is different betwen arrive in and arrive at? i mean when we use which word.
thanks alot
Arrive at= a place. I arrived at school/home/the airport.
Arrived in= a city/country. I arrived in Japan.
Most funny qwestions by Ronnie with some irony))), TAL!
does exist the word “roomshare” ? what does it mean? thanks
Yes, it’s a word! It means when you’re not renting an apartment all by yourself, but a room in an apartment you share with other people.
god bless you ronnie i love you english class

i like ur way to learin( ur method)
thank u
This is amazing. I don’t speak English but I understand your lesson. You are really good teacher :-).
Greetings to all the team.
hi sweet Ronnie..wish everyting is going well with u,i really like ur teachng way speacially its presented with a sence of humor,my qustion is how can i differentiate between simple past and present pefect?for instance when i say i saw and when i say i ve’ seen? my best regards to u.
Really useful vocabulary! If sometime I might rent a house I would use the right words! Do you know Ronnie? The word “condo(minium)” is a “false friend” of the word “condominio” in Italian. We use it to indicate a sum of money we pay every month for lights, lift, cleaning up…. of the block of flats we live in. Thanks for your help!
That’s good to know! Small correction: condominium and condominio are actually cognates, not false friends—they both come from the Latin condominium. A lot of English words come from Latin, so there are many Italian-English cognates, like insalata / salad or teatro / theatre.
Hi Ronnie ,
Could you please do a video on words “ADOPT,ADEPT,ADAPT” ,how to pronounce them .
I am watching English movies in that i can listen some words like “NUTS” and ” bumped ” ,guess these are slang words .
Please explain
Hi Ronnie,
I am a Tibetan and my English is very bad.
Nowadays I study basic English in India
I love your English lesson,
Thank you!
Hi Ronnie.. I ‘m writing in Thailand .Do you know I really like your video I watches many lessons of yours via youtube. I just would like to say ” You ‘re so cool teacher”
Hi teachers I would like a video about contability vocabulary and other video about examples to send an e-mail for example asking for information or sending files attachment, etc. Thank you very much!!
Hi Teacher !
Thank to you we are Learning English . . .
Hey thanks for replying!!
Is it okay with you to explain all kinds of clauses(in short only)??
before i solve this quiz i think i get 3~4 points. but i got 9 points!!! thank you for teaching me ^^
Thanks for the lesson. I think that a deposit is not only for making a reservation, but to respond about the possible damages in the apartment at the end of the contract.

Hello Ronnie,
Thank you for your efforts to help people like me to learn right English.
I did listen to -ION lesson. I have a concern, I think -tion and -ssion are pronounced -shin not -ion because if only -ion you have to leave the t in the original word and to remove only -ion and replace by -shin.In action for example, it would be actshin while the right is acshin. Can you please comment on that.
there is very useful lesson.see you again soon thanks…..
bravo! I got 90.
Great lesson. I live in uk and we can buy apartment here. Someone asked.
Thank you Ronnie <3
In The UK We usin’ flat – apartment , to rent accommodation – to rent place for living.Tenancy Agreement – A Lease!
Hi Ronnie. I love your lessons! Thank you so much. I have a question about this lesson. Don’t we use plural for the word room, like 2 bed rooms condo, or 3 bed rooms house?

HI Ronie..
i have a little prob on the usage of ”where”..i know how to use it with all other ways besides this rule please help me..
I wanna know how to use ”where” with these words and what the grammar rule is..pls give me a few examples of your own ones..
1 Due to the volume of emails we receive we are unable to respond to the emails where the answer can be found on our web site itself
2 If you have gone to a website where you have to create an account for yourself..
3 This procedure should be followed in cases where dishonesty has been alleged.
4 I heard a strange noise from the upstairs where the children were playing.
5 There is a stage in life where you can’t even hold a cup of tea.
Thanking you
