    I have helped hundreds of people pass their B2 First exam at no cost, and I would LOVE to keep it that way. Of course, I still have to maintain a full time job while running this channel, and BELIEVE ME, I spend the majority of my free time writing, recording, editing and publishing videos. I love doing this, but I would love it even more if I could do it for a living!
    If every student that PASSED their exams bought one beer for Bruce I’d be able to do this full time. That would be MARVELLOUS!
    So, if you’ve PASSED your B2 First exam, and feel that SMASH English really helped, please consider donating here:
    www.buymeacoffee.com/SMASHEnglish
    This is not an obligation. One of the fantastic things about SMASH English is that it is free for everyone that needs it! This will not change. However, if you do feel you can say thanks with a little bit of money then that’s fantastic.
    Thank you all!
    Toby.

    First conditional:
    If I pass my exam I'll make sure to thank you for your dedication.
    -> Should I pass my exam I'll make sure to thank you for your dedication.
    Second conditional:
    If I were rich, I would build a research center.
    -> Were I rich, I would build a research center.
    Third conditional:
    If I hadn't followed you, I wouldn't have learned such grammar point.

    Hi, Toby! I have been watching your videos and I must admit that it helped me a lot. However I have already taken the FCE and I was kind of nervous and very anxious so I suppose that I don’t pass ;’( could tell me some of the kinds which probably shows to people that they reproved?
    Thank so much, you’re amazing!!!!

    Hi, Toby! Hope you're doing great!
    I told you some weeks ago that I sit the FCE exam. I haven't gotten my grades until February 18th, I guess. I'm pretty sure I'll pass the FCE because you helped me a lot! But I feel like it's time for me to prepare for the C1, I don't know if it's too early or not but I really want to sit the CAE as soon as I am enough prepared. So, I'll be writing down some comments on every video about the C1 exam, sorry not sorry, hahaha.
    Hugs from Mexico!

  • @marsel8718
    @marsel8718 3 года назад

    I did know this grammar structure but I was so nervous or maybe unprepared to be under exam conditions that I couldn’t use it. So pay attention that you know all of them by heart and can use them unconsciously.
    PS, Toby, is it any chance that you make a video about psychological aspects of taking the exam?

    Hello sir
    I am asking about location inversion
    I know we can not use inversion 'in the subordinate clause
    But i found some examples:-------
    1 George Du Maurier, "On which 'there' stood a stately maid",
    2. Here is what "there stood under the headline "- Cold Start Emission Reduction System Monitor. Temperatures Used....
    Please reply me sir these are correct or
    Not
    Please reply 🙂🙂🙂🙂
