Thanks a lot dear Professor! You worked very hard in making this video. Even English teachers like me will greatly benefit from this video and will use it in their classes.
Thanks for the comment and I appreciate the feedback. It would be normal for B2/C1 learners to have initial exposure to many of the features listed in this video, but, in my experience, most of the issues I have covered do not get properly consolidated until a learner is at a C1 or C2 level. In terms of "brand new" grammar topics, there is little left to discover by the time a learner gets to C1, but at this point it becomes more about learning about the small nuances of a grammar point. Taking the first point of the video, for example, a B2/C1 learner may be aware that there are some verbs that can be followed by either verb+ing or to+infinitive, but C1/C2 involves knowing the range of verbs that are affected by this rule and the resulting meaning changes.
thank You so much for such amazing stuff you have shared Sir. Rupert, I am a fan of English grammar , and I am also a Non- native Peruvian English teacher. I promised to go over it again and again. God bless You Sir. Regards from Trujillo- Perú.
This video helped me to broaden my understanding of what I had a vague notion of. Thank you; your videos are a really effective source of well-structured knowledge. There are not many creators actually teaching advanced English like this. I am glad I found this channel. You did such a great job. :)
Greetings (but unfortunately rather cool, wet and windy regards) from England! It's a pleasure to provide the service to lovers of English like you. Best wishes Rupert :)
Hello. We can use the modal verb can to express general possibility: It can be very cold here in winter. Also, we can use both can't/сouldn't have done as: He can't have misunderstood /he couldn't have misunderstood me
Thanks for adding some really useful points! I'm thinking of doing a much more in-depth video on modals soon - in this video I wanted to cover a lot of grammar points in brief but yes, I agree, there's lots more that could be said about modals 🙂
I’m impressed by the volume and thoroughness of the information you’ve presented here. Thanks to the video I can identify grammar spots to work on and improve. And the fact you are from the UK makes me even happier ‘cos I prefer this accent. ❤
Currently studying for my c2 certificate, sir i frankly want to thank you. Because i'd been studyin my academic grammar book which is made in my language to help me understand and which is at some points too complex to identify the rules until i came across that video. But now i've decided to stop studying that book and studying your videos as a main source, thank you!
Hello master 1.Your course was including the almanac of subject and excluding other than that normally. 2.Are there any other almanac that may you remained them? Or forget them? Best regards
😁 thank you sir. You waked me up in the middle. I'm sure I will never ever able to learn even 40% of what you said. Poor me. But thank you at least you revealed, the secret of mine. 🙏
Thanks for commenting! I'm glad it seems the video was of use to you. If there are any particular areas where you'd like more explanation, reply to this comment and I'll do my best 🙂
Thanks for the encouragement! I often teach in-person classes in the UK. Teaching online classes is something I have planned to do but I haven't found the time for up until now. How would you like this to happen? (RUclips live, Zoom, etc)
Thanks for the feedback. It is useful to know. I am currently making my plans for autumn, and I will consider again if this is something I can do in the future 🙂👍
"The existence of genetic engineering within the capitalist framework distorts core values in pointing to the commercialization of certain attributes". Could you please tell me when "in + ving" is used, as used in the above sentence ( in pointing). I know in some cases it is used with certain words ( She is interested in learning, They succeeded in completing etc.), but I face difficulty when it is used alone or without after certain verbs. I hope i have made you understand what my problem is. Eagerly waiting for your answer
Hi Oswal! In general, verbs take the "ing" form when they follow prepositions (e.g. at/in/on). The main difficulty when choosing between the "ing" form or the infinitive comes when one verb follows another verb; you have to learn which verbs take the pattern "verb + ving", and which verbs take the pattern "verb + to + infinitive". I hope this answers your question, but please do ask again if I've misunderstood what you meant. All the best Rupert :)
@@EnglishwithRupert Thank you for the explanation, Rupert! One last doubt - why preposition "in" is used in the sentence and is there any rule because of which "in" is used as a preposition in the sentence?
In the sentence you used, "in" has a similar meaning to "by"; this is one of the possible meanings of "in" when followed by an active verb + ing. It's difficult to give a full answer on all of the uses of "in", but I'll try a little bit! Prepositions such as "in" have a very wide range of potential meanings, and I personally feel that mastering them is a really key part of reaching a C2 English level. I did start making videos on RUclips on prepositions, but not many people watched them - you've encouraged me to try again! Instead, I've included most of my teaching on prepositions on my Udemy grammar course. Here are 5 of the more advanced uses of "in" from one of the videos on the course: - To show something is part of another thing (e.g. 3 in 5 people travel abroad during their lives) - To introduce a description of what contains something (e.g. He was dressed in black - i.e. the person is contained by the clothes) - With language (e.g. Write the answer in English, please) - When exposed to something (e.g. I got wet in the rain) - To show membership of a group (e.g. I was given a role in the team) However, there are more than these. On my course, I have lessons on "Prepositions of Time" / "Prepositions of Manner" / "Prepositions of Place" and "Prepositions of Movement", and uses of "in" come up frequently in these lessons. I also made a short RUclips video some time ago with a few common phrases including "in", although they are all unrelated to each other: ruclips.net/video/uMDj6IMdhm4/видео.html.
Hello teacher, nice to see you here with another fantastic video!I'm attending your Advanced English Grammar For C1/C2 Level Learners. , but not finished yet.Is the PERFECT ENGLISH GRAMMAR COURSE the same?
Lovely to hear from you! The "Perfect English Grammar" course is similar to the "Advanced English" course in style, but it covers a much wider range of topics and also has some role plays for additional speaking practice. In terms of C1/C2 level lessons, there are some lessons in the new course that don't appear in the "Advanced English" course, and some that cover the same topics but in a different way. I've tried to give it more of a classroom feel than previous courses which I felt had more of a "Power Point" feel (e.g. I interact with the screen by moving items/highlighting/editing as I go). I hope that helps you decide! Best wishes Rupert

I'm going to watch it again after dinner and then I will let you know.👍
Yes, I'm doing it.I appreciate your effort in explaining the meaning of all the complicated grammar rules.
You're very welcome! I hope you learnt lots!
