EASY ENGLISH CONVERSATION: How to tell a story in English

Telling stories during conversations can be difficult for English learners, but it’s an important skill to have and a great way for people to get to know you. In this class, I will teach you how to tell a story during a conversation. I will teach you key expressions we use to start telling a story including: “Did I ever tell you about...”, Let me tell you about...”, “That reminds me of...”, and “You’ll never guess what happened!” I will teach you key words and some grammar (i.e. simple past tense, past continuous tense) that we often use when we tell a story. Finally, learn a great phrase to use if no one laughs at a funny story: “You had to be there.” www.engvid.com/easy-english-c...

[@milescabia]

Hi! I'm trying to learn Spanish and you're trying to learn English! I'm inviting you to be my learning partner. The fastest way to learn a language is to practice speaking. We can talk maybe 30minutes to an hour every day. You learn English from me and I learn Spanish from you. Let me know if you're interested.
