Hi Gill, thanks for your help. I have listened your class and I have admired your streight of point. See you soon.
Thanks a lot ! Great lesson!
Hi Gill.. Good for the students that like British accent like myself! :-) I’ve read you live in London. .. But your accent isn’t a cockney or an estuary one…. I mean. Please could you describe your accent? Forgive me but I’m a bit curious about it…. After that … If you like or you are in the mood, what about lesson or more about zero to third conditional? I’d be very grateful for that! Thanks for you help… Marcello
hi Marcello — thanks for your question! You’re right, I don’t have a Cockney/Estuary accent. I’ve lived in London for many years, but originally I come from the Midlands area (further north), so I have a mixture of Midlands and RP. Ciao, Gill :-)
Thank you for your answer! :-)… But what’s about the next lesson? I’m looking forward for it… And I think I’m not alone in this waiting… Isn’t it?
Thanks very much GillL .I am very weak in English Is there an easy way to please. This is my special Emile (sidou-07@live.fr) Or skype (cimahed)
Hi, me too, I need to know about conditionals!
Welcome on board teacher Gill.
It will be a pleasure to study with you!
Are you the Jade’s mum? You look like each other!
hi Aiace — sorry if this is a disappointing answer, but no, I’m not Jade’s mum ;-)

Wonderful lesson Gill, welcome to this fantastic website. I love your british accent and am hoping you teach us with many more lessons.

you are welcome. good lesson!
Hi Gill, nice to see your first lesson on Engvid. This lesson it’s been very useful for me.. now i can say:
i was going to study english very soon this morning, but my allarm clock didn’t work, so i couldn’t wake up very soon !!! :)
WELCOME to engvid Gill :-)
I am pleased to meet you because i got one more dedicated teacher.I just loved your accent.I must appreciate you energy and enthusiasm as well :)to be frank,i am really impressed by it.Now i am pumped to get the next video from you.Many thanks for this one.
Hello Gill, your first lesson was great.
i tried to find out more videos for you but didn’t find.
can you do more videos for us i love your way in teaching , and i hope my English is good enough.
This is Gill’s very first lesson! Don’t worry, more are on the way :D
Thank very much im here to learen
thank you
Hi Gill,thanks a lot for this usuful lesson.
Hi Gill
welcome to engvid, your accent is very nice, we need teachers like you. Your lesson was very interesting. Thank you.
Hi Gill. Welcome to Engvid ! I love your accent, it makes me think of my english teacher. I’d have a question about question 4 of the quiz : I put “decided” instead of “going” and it didn’t sound wrong to me. Is it really wrong “to be decided to do something” ? Maybe I’m just translating from French :-). Thank you in advance for your answer.
Hi Edig — thanks for your kind words :-) In question 4 it should be ‘He was going to do some gardening’, because that’s how the construction works when we use ‘going’. If we use ‘decided’, it’s a different form of the verb (-ed rather than -ing) and the construction is: ‘He decided to do some gardening’. I hope that helps to explain :-) All the best with your English studies!
a new great teacher is here. Welcome :)
I’m very glad to see your first lesson. Your are wellcome.
In your presentation, you said you found this site by chance because you looked for rude words for one lesson.
About this subject ask Ronnie. She is a specialist.
Anyhow she is a marevllous and funny teacher.
About you I’m sure you will help me to perfect my English. Kind regards
I just listened to you. Congratulation for this very clear lesson and your nice accent !
Hello Gill
That’s a very good lesson. Thank you!!
I would like have a lesson about “graded and ungraded adjectives”
Thank you!
Pleased to meet you, Gill! Thanks for the lesson, it’s not badly :) Go ahead!
Hi Gill and Welcome , Thanks a lot , really glad to see your lesson ,come back soon ^^
Hi Gill
I have learned your lesson very well. And another one have learned: (would have pp) pattern . Thanks. Also your rythm is good for me.
Dear Gill,
You heve have done your best. please CAN WE SAY IN ENGLISH ?: (You have enlightened me???) to refer that you have helped me to learn a lot from your class???..or what we must say to refer or to say that?
——
You are welcome.
Hello Moh-Avid — thanks for your question. If you tell someone they have done their best, it may not sound like a compliment, because it can imply that their ‘best’ wasn’t good enough — though it depends on the tone of voice you use! But if you want to tell someone that they helped you to understand something, here are two suggestions: ‘You did a good job’ or ‘You have really helped me to understand’. I hope this helps – all the best with your studies :-)
Thank you and you did a good job.
have a good day.
Moh.
Hi Gill, I am happy to welcome you.

Hello,this is the first time I watched your video teacher GILL.Your are a great teacher.I wish if we had teachers like you in my country.I am a student in the English department, at university in my country of course.I would like to advice me about how can I improve my writing and about how can I increase my vocabulary.THANKS in advance professor.

Welcome Teacher Gill I would like to thank you very much for your good English lesson.
Thank you so much lovely teacher, I got 10 out of 10 yaaay
i really appreciate u that i learn more things of your lesson
I am very sad 20%
Hi Gill, I was so pleased with this lesson and I also like your accent as well. May I ask u to have a lesson in the titled “there is or it is?” I always have problems! :(.
My Skype usman.musazai
I really want practice of English to improve my spoken English more and more
Hi . There is talks about the existence of something , but It refers to an adjective of some thing : There is a dog in the yard , it’s black. Regards
It also is used in this way : It’s a book. It’s a girl.
Hello, teacher Gill! It is very happy to meet you here! I felt that you are very elegant and lovely teacher. I think I am a happy student because I could take your wonderful lesson! Thank you very much about that.
I made decision I should ask you this question which makes me very bother for long…
It is still very complicated to understand to me that the grammar of “comparative” with “THE”.
For example: “The harder he tried, the worse the situation became.”
”The stronger the medicine is, the sicker I feel.” Like those.
I am very looking forward to your next lesson! (Even though, it isn’t the lesson for teaching about the grammar I asked, absolutely!! :) )
Hello
I would like also, you dear teacher to teach us about this subject. Thank you for your useful lesson. I am amazed about your accent. I adore your voice.
Hi Teacher Gill, Thank you for your lesson and welcome to Engvid.
Hi Gill, welcome! It was great lesson! Thanks.
A GREAT LESSON
I enjoyed your lesson Gil. Congratulations for the perfect way that you teach. I had intention to write more, but I need to go to work.
Thanks Gill for this nice lesson
Thank you Gill^^
PARABÉNS GILL. A ideia do site é maravilhosa. Que coisa boa tê-los fazendo este trabalho. Parabéns para todos os professores.
Special thanks from Lebanon and I get 7/10 is that good ?
I’ve loved your lesson! I’d like to suggest all of you to work with long sentences too. It is really good. I feel like if I have more things to say. Learning with short sentences causes a broken vocabulary, and you can’t prolong a conversation because you get used to talk like that. For example, Brazilians like to talk a lot, and feel the need to do this in English. That’s the big question!
I haven´t realized that there is a new teacher on Engvid. She is so good as all the teachers in this project.
Congratulations and greetings!!
Thak you Gill, you are a lovely person and teacher.
Thank God I could have seen so great lesson and I hope this will be only the first onde among many others you will gift us.
I really enjoyed this time with you.
Thanks!!!
I really liked your lesson. I think it was very useful as I often struggle when expressing what I was meant to do but I didn’t do. And Welcome to EngVid. I am new to this website too!

Why in this case I don’t need to use WOULD or I can change it by the HAVE but using the past participle?
Greatings and thank for your help!

hello i just want from you if there is no forbidden to explain the tenses that use in this missed situation since i can’t recognize them with my respect i understand the meaning but i can’t use them in my speech
i got 7 correct out of 10
Dear Gill, I would like to ask you a question. In lesson “6 ways to talk about a missed situation: “I was going to”” you used a word “want” in Past Continuous form. Why do you use “want” in Continuous

Hi Dear Gill,
Thank you for the useful lessons teacher Gill.
I need your help to clarify the usage of ‘has been and have been’, since I’ve a little bit confusion about it.
Usually, we use ‘has/have been + past participle’ to talk about the action that had started in past and still in progress. On the other hand, we often use ‘have been’ to talk about the past action but not continued. For instance, “I have been to Britain”.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for this lesson…
Hey! Guys. So happy to be here and able to leave a comment. Lol

Gill, since I discovered you I hardly see any other english teacher.
Above of all your outstanding teacher qualities, for me the most fascinated thing from you is that I see behind this excellent teacher there is a very wise, extremely intelligent, modest and humble person.
With tremendous desire to share their knowledge, which are too many.
Thank world, for there are people like Gill.

Hi Gill! your explanations are always so clear that I get everyting you teach, thanks a lot! If only I had known you before, then I would have been improving my English since then! bye, see you soon!
Hello, Gill. I have a question. You said, “I had to spend that money getting the car repaired.” in the video at the second example. Why did you use “getting”? What’s tense of “getting” in this sentence? Thank you.
to spend sth (on) doing sth. here the preposition on is optional. so the original sentence could be like “i had to spend that money on getting the car repaired”.
Hello, Gill, thank you for the lesson,it;s great!
I love the way and the rhythm you teach,Gill. Besides, I feel you very respectful and at the same friendly and close. Thanks a lot
I loved everything about the lesson, your way of talking and explanation was perfect.
