My most embarrassing story at work was when I fell asleep (for 3-4 seconds, though) DURING the lesson IN FRONT of my STUDENTS! It was so cold in the classroom, one of my students gave me his big coat, they started to write the dictation, they were writing quite slowly, and I, all warmed up finally under this coat, made such a huge noticeable nod, falling asleep, they all noticed it. Oh my God, how embarrassing!
OMG this is soo good 😂😂!! I remember when I first worked as a waiter in London, and I was doing a bunch of silly mistakes out of misunderstandings. I have gotta said that I didn't speak more than a few words in English and my listening was really rubbish though 😂. So one day, a lovely old woman came into the restaurant and after ordering her drink, she ask for the "loo". Well, I had absolutely no idea about what that was, but I thought it had to be and ingredient for a pizza. So I keep telling her that unfortunately we had run out of "loo" but we had a bunch of other stuff like veggies, cheese or meat. Well, it continued for 5 minutes untill she could keep it together anymore and end up shouting at me and complaining to my manager because I was taking the piss 😂. I wish this was the only one but I've got just soo many of those lol.
Last summer I worked at the local Art Museum. Most of my excursions were in English and rarely I had excursions in German. I was only a beginner in German and basically I only knew my text by heart and couldn't improvise. So one day I had a lovely German group, they followed me to the hall I knew perfectly. I started talking about a great Russian artist Aivazovsky, but when I raised my hand and turned to the wall where his canvas was supposed to be, there was a random picture. I turned to another wall to show the Germans another his work and there was an unfamiliar canvas again. So the group was waiting for Aivazovsky and I was just standing in front of them without any idea what to say. That was horrible! And Aivazovsky's works went to Moscow for his jubilee exactly that day!
Hi Lucy! I don't know if you know but Welsh rarebit was actually 'Welsh rabbit'! You see, the Welsh had such a reputation for being stingy that if they invited you over for a rabbit dinner they would only serve you cheese on toast! So, etymologically speaking you were 100% correct! The poor Welsh...
I worked in a hotel in Wales last summer, however I'm not an English speaker, so you can imagine my mistakes haha For example I brought a meal from the kitchen to the customer and somehow I forgot the name of it, so instead of saying Brown trout I said Brown turtle :D or the same story but with a lamb burger, instead of lamb I said lung and they were staring at me like if I didn't get mad or what haha
Yes, I have a hard time listening to Hollywood movies if they speak softly, or spwaling too fast, even though I'm fluent. AND MY DIALECT IS HUGELY BASED ON AMERCIAN ENGLISH (Filipino English)
Very funny!! I was laughing out from the second story. I think your manager deserves some kind of trophy or medal for all patience he has to handle you with.
Lucy I'm from Hong Kong and I really love your channel and your accent tbh cuz I really love the British culture and I want to learn to have a better pronunciation of English and grammar. I'm glad to find this channel by you :)
Lucy, great stories, I was laughing my head off, especially cos i know its so easy to make a mistake under pressure. We all could be so intelligent in some aspects and yet so stupid in others. Its like Sheldon from HIMYM sometimes. :o) When I was working in a hospital, one day during the registration procedure I told me collegue that the name of the patient was Anastazia General cos I mix it up with the information about her anestesiology details :)
OMG! So embarassing haha! Subtitles are on their way - don't forget to REPRESENT YOUR COUNTRY and contribute subtitle translations in your language: goo.gl/yZEQ95 (It's great translation practice!)
Es que no sé que es un "I deer". ¿Es un sombrero de esos con astas de peluche? Lucy, un beso desde España. - (Corrigiendo la pronunciación del inglés a una inglesa devota de la pronunciación. Yo creo que me he coronado, ya.)
Hi Lucy! Greetings from the Philippines. I'm also a waiter and this is why sometimes I feel I'm afraid of talking with British foreigners. Everytime I heard them talking, least words come to my mind. My main reason is British slang and accent words are more difficult to understand than American, for me. But I will push to familiarize and to understand myself with British words by watching all your videos. Thank you.
I'm soooo in love with British accent, it sounds so good and not quite hard to listen up the words in this accent. By the way, can you teach us pronunciation of - beach & bitch - sheet & shit - taught & thought - world & word - seen & sin - sleep & slip - heard & hurt thanks
Funny story's!!! Hope you consider doing more of them sometime. I spent over 6 years in the restaurant business and I definiatly made mistakes, but that's how you learn. Thanks for causing me to remember the insanity of those years. It was fustrating, memorable, and a total blast. We had a great crew & laughed all the time!!! :)
I'm a native English speaker and I don't know why I watch your videos haha I just stumbled upon them and let them play in the background (funnily enough) when I'm studying either French or Dutch, and (please believe me I'm not a creep who just stares at you, I'm gay asf but you're beautiful nonetheless ye) and this video had me fucking dying! I cringed so much at the milk story but the image of two old women just looking at a specially prepared glass of milk that young overly charismatic Lucy made was just too absurd and hilarious, the last one sounded something that Leslie Knope would do I swear haha. Love your videos, I envy English learners that they have you! I wish French and Dutch had a you version!

You make me laugh a lot of...thank you! Well i'll tell you my most embarrassing story. In my school, i was responsable of pronounce the flag vow, i remember be studying for a long time before the live presentation in front of 400 people, but, i don't know why, my brain forgot all the vow when i was in the stage, and i repeated the first sentence at least eight times, till a teacher get up the stage, and said me. "Okay, darling was enough. Don't worry" i started to let giggles, and the teacher though that i was weeping...then he saw that i was laughing and he said "Please get down, you shouldn't make it worse"
Oh my goodness, you are the best! What's wonderful about your stories is that none of them are mean-spirited. You were trying your very best and meant well. I was working the front desk at a restaurant and a drunk fella walked by on his way to the restroom and asked me to call him a cab. So I said "Hey, you're a cab!" I turned around to walk away so I could have a laugh and the restaurant owner was standing there and heard the whole interaction. He said "Did that customer ask you to call him a cab, then did you reply "Hey, you're a cab"? I meakly said "y e s", then braced to be fired. The owner was doubled over. ?? I had no idea what was happening. When he finally stood up again, he had tears of laughter streaming down his face and we shared a real bonding moment over my nonsense. By the way, the drunk guy didn't even notice my comment, and he got his cab.
Embarassing but hilarious! In my own experience, I think that be in a wrong class (as a teacher) and teach the wrong subject to a wrong group of studensts was one of the most funny events in my carrer, wich has a lot of funny and embarassing moments by the way! 😶
OH.MY.GOD Lucy, I'm not bragging but you're helping me a lot I can pronounce British and American accents very clearly and now my aunt watches your videos
I was at the Pub as well and tried to order some waffles-- to no avail! You were running all over the place, trying to please the 14 people sitting around that huge table. And you didn't look ditsy at all -- rather cute and a natural! Obviously, I went back there the following day -- however, no trace of you.... Well, trying to cope with my grief I moved into another town...
Hi! I just wanted to make you know that I really really improved my english pronounciation thanks to your videos! My scottish teacher was truly surprised, I apparently did a lot of progresses! And nothing, Thank you so so much Lucy😊 Sorry for my mistakes and kisses from Italy❤
haha, same here, I'm working as a waitress. It was my very first day at work,when the guest asking for a bell. Then I took almost an hour searching for a bell. Fuck that word "bell"!! He was very mad! Then he was shouting," where is my bell!! I said, "I can't find your bell,sir! then he said, I need my bell bell bell! somebody is waiting for me! I want to pay! Then I was enlightened! ooh.... , your biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiL,sir. I will give you right away,sir. Then he looked at me like I was very stupid!gosh..wattan experienced
Thank you for this video...... I just click on the video and click on comment section just to thank you.... I haven't watch it yet but am going to watch it now...... I have one more request can you do a famous brand name pronunciation video please please please.....
English with Lucy I am sorry..... it must annoy you seeing the same request again and again....so I will not repeat my request.....you never replied me so I thought you didn't knew about my request...... I know you read all the comments but its just what I thought.....sorry and thank you once again...... P.S. - I hope I used the word 'annoy' correctly.
Love your stories, they are so funny and makes me laugh. Here it goes my story: I'm a student of medicine and a month ago I was doing some practical class at the hospital in urologist. I was in the consultation with the doctor and after see the first patient I asked something to show him that I was paying attention and I have interest. So my question was: -why this patient came here instead of going to the nephrologist? I don't understand why is he here bc he has a stone in the kidney. His reply was: -Really?? Are you joking? It would be better if you come back to the first year of medicine or even better to philosophy. After that he told my question to other doctors and all were surprised as well and laugh at me. I was so embarrassed and I don't understand what I had done wrong. He told me that the stones are never be treated by the nephrologist, and they have some rivalry between them. Since this day until I finished the practices I was known as "the crazy guy who wanted to treat stones in nephrology" 😑😑😑😑😑😑
English with Lucy I'm not sure yet but I enjoy oncologist, inner medicine (not sure if it was properly translate) medicina interna in Spanish but I have to say that I love everything which related with medicine. Nevertheless I still have to study a lot to reach my goals 😅
Gonzalo García i love your story because it was like drama ,you have to be careful in future medicine not accept mistakes. but my career also it's very difficult like medicine (architect) good luck for us in our careers.
Elhabib sulaiman yeah, I agree with you but remember that we are humans, and humans make mistakes. There are some careers that have more responsabilities than others and this is something that you have to live with. Mistakes are they way to learn, and you would be very surprise if you discovered that doctors make mistakes every day. Is not a bad thing bc of a mistake, you take on knowledge that you will never forget, but of course, the mistakes must be done when you are learning or they must be very very tiny in order to avoid the patients be mad at you 😱😱
hahaaaa me also agree with ...... .the greatest mistake we humans make in our relationships we listen half, understand quarter, think zero and react dobble. but learn from your mistake thanks alot for your reply
Lucy I would like listening to you every moment of every day! You're an excellent and beautiful teacher! Thanks for helping me to improve my english, bye from Italy
Lucy, you just remind me my experience working in a supermarket, how many times I got things wrong, first because obviously I could not understand properly and second because I misunderstood hundred of times. Best when I offered to a woman a lovely hand soap instead of the dry soup that she was asking for... I never forget these funny and embarrassing moments.
Before British English for me was very difficult to hear then watching your videos I am understanding better Why? I don't know! Thank you Lucy! Você é legal pra caramba.
Big thanks and lots of love from Russia) I'm so in love with watching every your video, because your pronunciation is so brilliant! And even I'm not so good at speaking (and maybe at writing), but I catch myself a thought that I understand every word you said. So thanx again for your blessed job!!! Stories are actually funny))) P.S. Lucy those are called 'blonde moments
Hey I am french and I don't know what accent to choose between British and American. I think I'll choose British. Oh and Lucy, yours is very clear and sounds pretty. :)
Lucy those are called "blonde moments". Hello from Dothan, AL, USA. I was so happy to see this video come up in my FB feed. I had the pleasure of visiting London many years ago. Looking forward to binging on this channel!
It was so funny. Somehow I can understand your mistakes cause when I was younger I used to do things like that: maybe I was thinking a lot of things: I made my own stories in my head and then I listened inaccurate words.
well... we all have been throught darker days than others together and so on! it happens to me being a little disty every then and now, as you said so but it is not necessary to blow it out of proportion. I MEAN the world just keeps spinning, WE also need to take a step backwards
I got once, it was one of two years already and I am often to forget the words. It was so embarrassing, so, I was be receptionist in the hostel once in the middle of the night my guest just order the blanket BUT but I thought it's a clothes hanger, then, I just lend the hangers to them. They was like 'what' in their face hahaha then, they just walking to the bed and point at the (real)blanket and say "I mean I wanted blanket". I was like "OMG I'm so sorry I will giving you a blanket as soon as possible" lucky me they're not mind my big mistake and none complain for the hostel.
When I started working in a crèche, being a non-native speaker I wasn't familiar with all "technical" vocabulary. We had a daily report we had to present to parents and it included information about their babies bowel movements in: "wet nappy" and "soiled nappy". I didn't get the second one right for quite some time saying it "solid" every time I was talking to the parent. So one day I was talking to a new daddy and I said "...and just one soild nappy today" and he went "...yes, my baby loves a good sh***" 😂😂😂 after that I went and actually investigated the difference between "soiled" and "solid" properly 😁
I will study aboard in Canada and I probably need to find a part time job Hearing Lucy talking about this made me really scared because even a native speaker like her gets the words wrong sometimes :(
I loved it, Lucy! ^^ All really funny stories and you tell them in a so sweet way. You know, you may have had embarrassing moments as a waitress, delivering the menus, but, on the other hand, on "delivering" stories you ARE GREAT! They were all DELICIOUS! (~_^)
OMG, Lucy, I laughed soooo much at this video. Please do more videos like this one and I also have a recomandation for your lesson session. I REALLY don't know how to split the words when I reach at the end of a row. My teacher from highschool told me that there is a rule but she never told me about that rule. :( (It's also my foult because I didn't ask her to explain me and now it's to late) Love your videos, you made a great great job!!
we have welsh rarebit where I worked, but on the ordering system we use, we just have it down as welsh R. I made the same mistake and for about 3 weeks after we added it to the menu, I would hand people their cheese toast and tell them it was their welsh rabbit. I did think it was a weird name but I never really questioned it.
Love this video! I had a stressful day but thankfully it ended well...u know how.. ur cute n funny story made me laugh hence stress free... Ur a great teacher n ur videos hv helped me a lot to improve my spoken english... n I want u to never stop making videos...n of course I'm looking forward to more story times
I've watched lots of videos with English teachers, and ought to admit Miss Lucy has the best BBC accent. And can I ask Lucy: if you speak so beautifully in your ordinal life?

Who else is pretty good at speaking English but wants to have a British accent? I love the way she pronounces words 😊
The incredible Knuffibär Jeg også
After 6 months of practicing spoken English with a friend of mine from Britain, I could pick up a similar accent, but still lots of work ahead
Same here. Can't seem to develop any accent at all. Der Deutsche Akzent ist leider sehr dominant :D
jdhjdu Ich habe einen amerikanischen Akzent aber ich will auch britisch klingen können 😂
Woher hast du hauptsächlich Englisch gelernt?
My most embarrassing story at work was when I fell asleep (for 3-4 seconds, though) DURING the lesson IN FRONT of my STUDENTS! It was so cold in the classroom, one of my students gave me his big coat, they started to write the dictation, they were writing quite slowly, and I, all warmed up finally under this coat, made such a huge noticeable nod, falling asleep, they all noticed it. Oh my God, how embarrassing!
hahahaha sorry to laugh but that was funny!!
😂😂😂😂
I think that's normal.
Gosh I can totally image that!!!! Oh I feel really sorry for you haha
I am in teacher training and this sounds like something that could happen to me as well.
Lucy , you are a top-notch story-teller! Teaching is definitely your niche.
I do agree...
OMG this is soo good 😂😂!! I remember when I first worked as a waiter in London, and I was doing a bunch of silly mistakes out of misunderstandings. I have gotta said that I didn't speak more than a few words in English and my listening was really rubbish though 😂. So one day, a lovely old woman came into the restaurant and after ordering her drink, she ask for the "loo". Well, I had absolutely no idea about what that was, but I thought it had to be and ingredient for a pizza. So I keep telling her that unfortunately we had run out of "loo" but we had a bunch of other stuff like veggies, cheese or meat. Well, it continued for 5 minutes untill she could keep it together anymore and end up shouting at me and complaining to my manager because I was taking the piss 😂. I wish this was the only one but I've got just soo many of those lol.
+BerboYT HAHAHAHAHA AMAZING
😂
Oh Gee ! Run out of 'loo'.
Last summer I worked at the local Art Museum. Most of my excursions were in English and rarely I had excursions in German. I was only a beginner in German and basically I only knew my text by heart and couldn't improvise. So one day I had a lovely German group, they followed me to the hall I knew perfectly. I started talking about a great Russian artist Aivazovsky, but when I raised my hand and turned to the wall where his canvas was supposed to be, there was a random picture. I turned to another wall to show the Germans another his work and there was an unfamiliar canvas again. So the group was waiting for Aivazovsky and I was just standing in front of them without any idea what to say. That was horrible! And Aivazovsky's works went to Moscow for his jubilee exactly that day!
+Виктория oh nooooooo! It's awful when you get caught out like that hahaaa
Such a funny situation it might be too difficult for you at that time
Hi Lucy! I don't know if you know but Welsh rarebit was actually 'Welsh rabbit'! You see, the Welsh had such a reputation for being stingy that if they invited you over for a rabbit dinner they would only serve you cheese on toast! So, etymologically speaking you were 100% correct! The poor Welsh...
+Canguro English wow!!!! So i'm not that stupid after all! Thanks Canguro😂
Quite the opposite! I think it shows how good your instincts are in English! And that was before you became a teacher!
I worked in a hotel in Wales last summer, however I'm not an English speaker, so you can imagine my mistakes haha
For example I brought a meal from the kitchen to the customer and somehow I forgot the name of it, so instead of saying Brown trout I said Brown turtle :D or the same story but with a lamb burger, instead of lamb I said lung and they were staring at me like if I didn't get mad or what haha
Oh dear !!! Can't imagine a lung burger !!! Hahaha !!!! :)

Oh gosh 😂 I live in wales!! It’s not the prettiest thing though
I burst in laugh 😂

I'm a student of medicine and a month ago I was doing some practical class at the hospital in urologist. I was in the consultation with the doctor and after see the first patient I asked something to show him that I was paying attention and I have interest. So my question was:
-why this patient came here instead of going to the nephrologist? I don't understand why is he here bc he has a stone in the kidney.
His reply was:
-Really?? Are you joking? It would be better if you come back to the first year of medicine or even better to philosophy. After that he told my question to other doctors and all were surprised as well and laugh at me.
I was so embarrassed and I don't understand what I had done wrong. He told me that the stones are never be treated by the nephrologist, and they have some rivalry between them. Since this day until I finished the practices I was known as "the crazy guy who wanted to treat stones in nephrology" 😑😑😑😑😑😑
+Gonzalo García hahaha oh no poor you Gonzalo!!! Good luck with your medical career! What would you like to specialise in?
English with Lucy I'm not sure yet but I enjoy oncologist, inner medicine (not sure if it was properly translate) medicina interna in Spanish but I have to say that I love everything which related with medicine. Nevertheless I still have to study a lot to reach my goals 😅
Gonzalo García i love your story because it was like drama ,you have to be careful in future medicine not accept mistakes.
but my career also it's very difficult like medicine (architect) good luck for us in our careers.
Elhabib sulaiman yeah, I agree with you but remember that we are humans, and humans make mistakes. There are some careers that have more responsabilities than others and this is something that you have to live with. Mistakes are they way to learn, and you would be very surprise if you discovered that doctors make mistakes every day. Is not a bad thing bc of a mistake, you take on knowledge that you will never forget, but of course, the mistakes must be done when you are learning or they must be very very tiny in order to avoid the patients be mad at you 😱😱
hahaaaa me also agree with ......
.the greatest mistake we humans make
in our relationships
we listen half,
understand quarter,
think zero and react dobble.
but learn from your mistake
thanks alot for your reply
Thanks, very lovely story .
Lucy those are called 'blonde moments' 😌
The stories were so funny. Thanks for sharing them with us.

Hi Lucy you are the best teacher ever! I'm so grateful for this videos!
I'm always watching your videos. keep making that. I'm studying English a lot and your videos are so helpful. A big hug of a guy from BRAZIL! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
I've learnt alot of English from you.thanks alot for helping us who is not able to take English class..keep it up👍and you are stunningly beautiful
Lucy, you just remind me my experience working in a supermarket, how many times I got things wrong, first because obviously I could not understand properly and second because I misunderstood hundred of times. Best when I offered to a woman a lovely hand soap instead of the dry soup that she was asking for... I never forget these funny and embarrassing moments.
Very funny yet informative at the same time. I learn so many new English words. Keep at it Lucy. Kudos.
Hello from Georgia!!! Thanks a lot Lucy !!! your videos help me to improve my listening skills
Before British English for me was very difficult to hear then watching your videos I am understanding better
Why? I don't know!
Thank you Lucy!
Você é legal pra caramba.
+RENATO Koseki obrigada Renato!!! I'm so glad that my videos have helped you! That is my ultimate goal 🙌🏻😍❤️
Big thanks and lots of love from Russia)
I'm so in love with watching every your video, because your pronunciation is so brilliant! And even I'm not so good at speaking (and maybe at writing), but I catch myself a thought that I understand every word you said. So thanx again for your blessed job!!!
Stories are actually funny)))
P.S. Lucy those are called 'blonde moments
Hey I am french and I don't know what accent to choose between British and American. I think I'll choose British. Oh and Lucy, yours is very clear and sounds pretty. :)
Lucy those are called "blonde moments". Hello from Dothan, AL, USA. I was so happy to see this video come up in my FB feed. I had the pleasure of visiting London many years ago. Looking forward to binging on this channel!
Thank you Lucy. I now feel better about my mistakes.
So funny Lucy! Love your smile 😍 The milk/bill story is just amazing ahahaha
It was so funny. Somehow I can understand your mistakes cause when I was younger I used to do things like that: maybe I was thinking a lot of things: I made my own stories in my head and then I listened inaccurate words.
I love ur videos..My english has improved by watching ur videos😊😊😊 you're very helpful. Thank you so much Lucy. From Malaysia.
well... we all have been throught darker days than others together and so on! it happens to me being a little disty every then and now, as you said so but it is not necessary to blow it out of proportion. I MEAN the world just keeps spinning, WE also need to take a step backwards
super clear english i've ever heard!
7:09 And I wonder when I am gonna be good at it ? perhaps never. And it was very funny and enhanced my confident that native makes mistakes too.
I got once, it was one of two years already and I am often to forget the words. It was so embarrassing, so, I was be receptionist in the hostel once in the middle of the night my guest just order the blanket BUT but I thought it's a clothes hanger, then, I just lend the hangers to them. They was like 'what' in their face hahaha then, they just walking to the bed and point at the (real)blanket and say "I mean I wanted blanket". I was like "OMG I'm so sorry I will giving you a blanket as soon as possible" lucky me they're not mind my big mistake and none complain for the hostel.
I love learning with you teacher. Thank you very much.
When I started working in a crèche, being a non-native speaker I wasn't familiar with all "technical" vocabulary. We had a daily report we had to present to parents and it included information about their babies bowel movements in: "wet nappy" and "soiled nappy". I didn't get the second one right for quite some time saying it "solid" every time I was talking to the parent. So one day I was talking to a new daddy and I said "...and just one soild nappy today" and he went "...yes, my baby loves a good sh***" 😂😂😂 after that I went and actually investigated the difference between "soiled" and "solid" properly 😁
I will study aboard in Canada and I probably need to find a part time job
Hearing Lucy talking about this made me really scared because even a native speaker like her gets the words wrong sometimes :(
You are really best teacher. All videos are best. Thankyou
You are a funny teacher. Love the way you speak.Your look,definitely !
I loved it, Lucy! ^^ All really funny stories and you tell them in a so sweet way. You know, you may have had embarrassing moments as a waitress, delivering the menus, but, on the other hand, on "delivering" stories you ARE GREAT! They were all DELICIOUS! (~_^)
+GILBERTOXIS awww what a heart-warming comment, thank you! Have a lovely day and keep spreading the positivity!
OMG, Lucy, I laughed soooo much at this video. Please do more videos like this one and I also have a recomandation for your lesson session. I REALLY don't know how to split the words when I reach at the end of a row. My teacher from highschool told me that there is a rule but she never told me about that rule. :( (It's also my foult because I didn't ask her to explain me and now it's to late)
Love your videos, you made a great great job!!
I listen to you Every day :) I come from Germany and my speaking test is in a month ...
Makeup is flawless!
Now I understand why British people are so understanding towards other people's pronunciation ;)
we have welsh rarebit where I worked, but on the ordering system we use, we just have it down as welsh R. I made the same mistake and for about 3 weeks after we added it to the menu, I would hand people their cheese toast and tell them it was their welsh rabbit. I did think it was a weird name but I never really questioned it.
you teaches very well and i am glad to see your teaching skill and at last you are so baeutiful that i cant explain you in words .
I loved the last story, seriously my favorite so far!
I am rolling up. I can't stop watching it again and again.

You have amazing storytelling skills
You're a Star, Lucy.
I've watched lots of videos with English teachers, and ought to admit Miss Lucy has the best BBC accent. And can I ask Lucy: if you speak so beautifully in your ordinal life?
Lucy, thank you for a good laugh, it was me right there! It's like I'm laughing at myself. I think we are kind of peers)
