    I have watched so many videos for teachers explaining different branches of English but not as Simpl and clearer as you,Adam. Your way of explaining is clear,direct, accessible and uncomplicated which makes me feel studying English with you is more enjoyable tham with anyone else...Great job, thank you....

    Dear Adam,
    I'm preparing for my TOEFL test, and you have no idea how much your videos have helped me. I'm really thankful for your great, clear, and interesting classes. Again, thank you very much; I will keep watching your videos, and learning from such a wonderful teacher. Love you!!!!

    I can't express my gratitude for your extremely helpful videos. I found them at such a critical time (my IELTS is two days away now. But I've been watching you for almost two weeks) and I can't help but be thankful for you for being such a good English teacher, language-wise and explanation-wise :)

    Hi Adam, i just got my TOEFL results: 115 and honestly, at least 60% of that is due to you! Your videos were my main source for studying and I just wanted to come back and say thanks so much, you are a great teacher! Keep up the good work. Everyone else, LISTEN TO THIS GUY!!!

    • @laurawolfe154
      @laurawolfe154 5 лет назад +23

      "I am an English native speaker" is incorrect, and it doesn't sound right.
      "I'm a native speaker of English," or "I'm a native English speaker" are correct.
      "English native speaker" sounds wrong because "native" is a quality of "English," therefore it should come before "English."

    I like the way you break it up or break it down for that matter. You isolate your points clearly and i can see how a second language learner can benefit from your program. Well done...

    Parents make the best teachers: (Improved essay version)
    At home the opinions of parents play a huge role in a child´s early development.
    Parents are often seen as idols and are treated with respect.
    This is why I believe parents to be the best teachers.
    First of all, parents know how to motivate their children.
    For example, parents may give their children sweets as a reward for their commitment, whereas
    school teachers usually don´t have that option.
    Furthermore, they have control over their children´s learning environment.
    Having an eye for how much your child watches television or when it goes bed, might improve
    parent´s awareness of distractions.

    Now I clearly see why I won't pass that damn exam.
    It is not about grammar or lexics but rather about something that I can't do even in my native language.

    My lecturer told me that to write a good paragraph you have to include claims, reasons, and evidence. After watching this I am more sure that we do have to make sure every sentence is coherence and cohesive.

  • @yokonisi1
    @yokonisi1 5 лет назад

    It is interesting here that so many native speakers of English posted their positive comments on Adam's teaching. As a non-native speaker of English, I could learn a lot of important things in writing a good essay. I will try to make it shorter and to the point. Thank you always for the excellent lessons!

    hi Adam, i am preparing toefl now although it’s not for studying abroad, however, it’s beneficial to subscribe your channel and listen to the lessons. I am aware that the new channel Write-to-to is going to help students on Toefl and Ielts writing but i wonder if you plan to work out another channel to help students on speaking session which should be the most difficult one for most of the students in Mandarin speaking.

    • @farmduck2762
      @farmduck2762 2 года назад

      Yes that sentence is correct as it is. The only thing you might add in some circumstances is "more." Example: This should be a higher priority. It needs more expeditious consideration.

    • @anilkumarjangbahadu229
      @anilkumarjangbahadu229 2 года назад

      Why "a" not used before expeditious consideration...

    • @farmduck2762
      @farmduck2762 2 года назад +1

      @@anilkumarjangbahadu229 It depends on whether the sentence is complete. Firstly, it would be "an expeditious consideration."
      Secondly, if I mean that it needs consideration by a specific person or body, I might use "an." Example: This needs an expeditious consideration by the accounts office because we need to finalise it by Thursday.
      If I mean that the idea still needs a lot of work and doesn't have enough detail I might say, "This needs expeditious consideration."
      In reality, I would never say it because it is cumbersome and lacks detail. If it really needs expeditious consideration then why? which part? I would say something like, "The issue with the overheating needs immediate consideration because it could be dangerous for the operator."
      "The issue with the vehicle expenses needs immediate investigation by the accounts department because it is costing us $500 a day."

    • @farmduck2762
      @farmduck2762 2 года назад +1

      @@anilkumarjangbahadu229 Sorry, I just realised I had misunderstood your question. The correct answer, unfortunately, is not very satisfactory. Like many things in English, it is inconsistent and often irrational.
      We use the article "a/an" when the noun is quantifiable, as in a rock, a dog or a tonne of coal. We (generally) don't use it when the noun is more vague, like empathy, air, space, freedom.
      Here is the inconsistent part: although we don't say "a consideration" we might say "a degree of consideration" or "a lot of consideration." Irrational because, in these cases, "degree" and "lot" are no more quantified than "consideration."
