Ange benie

Hi Ange benie,
How’ve you been doing?
I wish you all the best in learning English.
We must to be patient and learn consistently every day. Fluency will come after that. At least i hope so.

Hi Marcin !!
I am doing well !!
thank you for welcoming me to this website!
yes we have to be patient for achieving our goals.
see you next time !!
Bye.

Ange benie

what is the methodology you were used for improving english language in speaking in front of many people?
i just want to know!!

Ange benie

It’s my wrinkle. I find it difficult to get my opinion across. I’m not good at getting my thoughts across even in my native language. I’m used to being a shy and inconspicuous person.
Maybe you have some advice for me?

marcin95

me too I just need an advice but i am going to find other people who know english to talk with them using voice call ,i think it will help me

Hello Emma,
thanks for this lesson.
Unfortunately i can’t relate to you. I was completely different than you in my childhood.
I used to play video games all the time. It was my whole life. I remember the day when i got my computer. I was so jubilant. Now I do like video games too but i play only on weekends. I don’t have too much free time :(. When i was a kid I used to have more leisure time.
Nowadays video game are suitable learning English.
I used to make many friends by playing video games.
Almost all of the come from different countries. I can talk to them and learn English while I’m playing video games.
I do what i like and I learn English at the same time. It’s both win.
One more time many thanks for another extremely useful lesson.
I’m looking forward for next lesson from you.
Take care and stay out of troubles.
Bye.

Hi Emma :)

I got 9/10 but i think at number 5: used to have more correct used to be. We’re usually talk: have married, I haven’t seen: be married. Thank Emma

nguyen van long

Hi nguyen van long,
i don’t understand you. Could you rewrite it?

marcin95

at 5th question: the correctly answer: used to be married but I think the answer: used to have married that more correct. Could you explain more detail for me? Thank you

nguyen van long

1. “You used to be married” -> it means You had a wife/husband in the past but not now.
2. “You used to have married” -> in this case “married” would mean a wedding.
For example:
“They had married in London.”

At least it’s what i think.

marcin95

Hello Emma,
Actually I am reviewing this material, but this time I know I can understand better.
I remember some things that happened, like..
I used to rent martial art movies. Between the oldest were the best.
I used to lift kites in my grandmother’s house during vacation.
I used to go to church on sunday. I remember there was a delicious hot dog on the sidewalk in the front door.
So, that’s it.
Thank you for sharing.
