    Adam, this is why you are the TOP master of writing: very clear and objective lessons. I've learned from you more than in my entire high school and university studies together in terms of writing skills. Thank you so much. My Ielts exam will be next Saturday. Hope for the best. God bless you.

    thank you I enjoy all your videos and they help me to break down the humdrum of teaching grammar in a class of unmotivated students. I usually pause when I want to explain what you said and give them chances to practice what has been taught. Thank you for the clear explanations.

    Let me begin by thanking you for these amazingly helpful videos. I am an English teacher in Turkey and I recommend your videos and website to all my students. One thing that confused me in this video was regarding the example paragraph into the 13th minute of the video. You suggested that the student who wrote the essay of universal language and loss of cultural diversity should remove the sentence that begins with " This certainly will result in a collapse of tourism industry ..." because it sticks out in the text as an irrelevant idea. However, the sentence prior to that focuses on cultural diversity as a principal reason of tourists' traveling to different countries. Doesn't that context provide the reason to keep that sentence?

    Dear Mr Adam, another great lesson.
    I have a question about the thesis. When the IELTS essay question is mentioned that 'do you agree or disagree?' , Can we write I quote ''I believe....'' in the introduction or do we need to write ''whether I agree or disagree''. Because I got confused with some other essay lesson.

    Hello Adam, a useful lesson as always. I have two doubts in argumentative essays. I have seen many essays on the internet that supports both the sides of an argument. My doubt is is it a good idea if I support only one side of an argument throughout the essay. For example, an essay like some people think TV is good, others think TV is bad, what is your opinion. For this kind of essays can I write two paragraphs supporting TV?
    My another doubt is regarding adverb clause. I have seen in one of your videos that you mentioned "while" in the beginning of a passage and "nonetheless" in the middle of the passage. " While it is evident that..., nonetheless..." "While" itself refers opposite idea will be followed. Then, why did you write nonetheless again? Please clear my doubts.
    I am seriously waiting for particle clauses lesson from you. Could you please make a video on that.

    • @ChitralPakistan
      @ChitralPakistan 6 лет назад

      Its Jeevani
      He isn't God , so might made a mistake. However, I believe that in an argumentative essays you have to discuss both sides and give your opinion with some relevant examples.
      Hope this will help.

    • @elvst3331
      @elvst3331 5 лет назад

      Its Jeevani it isn’t a good idea to support or be in favour for both sides of the argument. It is ok but hard to elaborate as losing focus is more than likely. I don’t recommend that and as such only support one side of the argument in my opinion is the acceptable way.
      2: nonetheless has a concession argument or a contrasting view. While the man left the football park feeling angry, he was able to apology to the station keeper nonetheless. I hope this helps. Thanks
