I’ve told students in previous lessons that they should summarize what they read. In this English lesson, I explain how to do that summary. Follow my simple system and learn better and more efficiently.
You can do it, if you will go to Youtube.com and than press the button “Download”. If you have the button. If you don’t have it, you can use any other programms to download from Youtube.com
plz somebody help me I’m very poor in English ….. my weak points in speaking i can’t speak continuously and also i suffering from grammar so i need your help and someone guide me to the right way
the vidio dont help to me in everithing, the guy speak very fast for learn a peoples, that not talk very well english. Defenitly it is in my opinion not helpful…..he need speak more slowly…this is my recommendation….I learning english, srry if i have any misspelling
It would be better if EngVid includes English subtitles on the videos …
One comment about the ‘few/a few’ and ‘little/a little’ topic:
Consider these two sentences:
1. There is little merit in your argument
2. Few people would challenge the giant
Can these two statements include nothing/zero in the implied meanings? That is, can ‘little merit’ include ‘no merit’? Same for few.

Thanks a lot James .. I really appreciate your fabulous deed to survive us from the terrible mistakes .. but don’t you think that you’d better speak a little bit slower so that we could catch the picture ..
Hay,
Its a very good presentation.You have performed well. I like you very much. if elaborated with some practical example it might be helpful a lot.Can you please present a video with real test situation.
Thank you very much for this lecture .. but I suggest to add English subtitle because u speak very fast and I found some hard to understand specially that I am beginner and missing some words not give me a clear idea about the lecture .
I am sorry if I had some mistakes in my writing .. but I hope that I can improve my English with your Interesting Website .
I have forgot my pass word
when i enter the email for the password recovery
engvid says that your pass word has been submitted to you through mail but email does not come plz solve this problem
Hi, I’m Joseph from Colombia, so James’s lessons are very amazing, but how can we improve our english alone? we speak normally spanish here and i want to speak english with everyone. Why don’t open a english chat in this page?
hi james, I’m elated because of I’am learning alot from you. Question when you have a word that has two constants in the begining, middle and ending word. How do you determine what letter to omit for pronunication. I understand the rule for two constants that are the same, but when they are different that’s when I have a problem.
Hi James, Thank you so much for your lesson. You are amazing teacher I’ve ever seen. The way you taught us is very interesting and make us more motivated in learning English.Thank you for all of your hard work and I truly appreciated it.God bless you.
everyone tells u that u r great! I don’t want to be just one of them but I could not just watch the video and go!
I’m an english teacher, I don’t even need to watch your videos but I watch them anyway!
I like ur style of teaching and it is exactelly my style but I can’t watch myself so I watch and learn from u!
Wish I could meet u and learn some more about teaching from u.
Do u live in London or in the USA

hi James! I just want you you to know that you are really a very talented mmm.. not even a teacher but a Personality transferring the necessary knowledge into my head in the most proper way-)
Your lelssons are like rewarding (?) talks with a close and smart friend, they make comfortable, leave such a nice “after-taste” and give a useful gist of knowledge without needless rubish-)
A good lesson! However, you don’t speak slowly enough for us to understand. I understand too little of what you say, It’s so sorry :( I would think there should be subtitles or a enclosed text which help us more.Thank you,Mr.James and Engvid- the best English page :D
Hi James,
this is the best video i’ve ever seen on summarisation. Meanwhile, I’m trying to develop a summarisation system and i will need your input if you don’t mind.
Hope to communicate with you better through email.
Hi, James. I listened some of your lessons. I’m preparing for the TOEFL. I need your help. I would like to know that if I write Writings and send you can you check them and give me piece of advice? Thank you in advance I’ll wait for your answer.
Hi James. Good lesson. You´re a good teacher but you really need to speak more slowly. we are just students… Please!!! your lessons would be much more useful for us if you did´t speak so fast.
