    Just remember:
    ” The more Listening,the better Speaking “.
    P.S. Of course,Repeatable n Understandable Listening!
    Have fun.

      thank you but what do you mean by P.S and n?

      Wednesday, January 9th 2013Reply to this comment

        P.S. is an abbreviation meaning “also”. N is a often used short way of saying “and”. Hope this helps.

Saturday, January 5th 2013Reply to this comment

Hi Alex :)
I notice you pronounce “the” sometime like “ze” and sometime like” tha”,so what is the difference?

Saturday, January 5th 2013Reply to this comment

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your lesson

Saturday, January 5th 2013Reply to this comment

thank you Alex

Saturday, January 5th 2013Reply to this comment

Thanks Alex and Happy New Year!

We need comprehensive explanation about “the”, apparently where to you and where not to use.

If you ask me what is blocking you to feel confident in English. I would say the use of “the”. If I’m 100% clear about use of the I would say I’m 98% confident in English.

So, Please Alex and team help us to understand thoroughly the use of “the” . I hope other students around the world will agree with me.

Thanks.
Tamil Eelavan.

Hi, Alex!
Thanks a lot for your lessons!
But Europe is not a continent, it’s a part of world. Eurasia is continent :)

Sunday, January 6th 2013Reply to this comment

    P.S. And Asia is not a continent too :)

    Sunday, January 6th 2013Reply to this comment

    Even though it’s the same land, Europe is treated as its own continent, politically and linguistically. The dividing line (as you probably know) is the Ural Mountains.

Sunday, January 6th 2013Reply to this comment

hi teacher .sorry I have a query if you don’t mind …we say
to encourage or to encouraging
Is there really a difference between them ?
“to”  Working with the verb infinitive
or
“to” prepositions, which works for the gerund
ــــــــــــــــــــــــــ
to motivate and encourage them

or
to motivated and encouraging them
and thanks a lot
