I'm someone who has become comfortable with the two basic tenses and am at ease when helping young jr. high students wrap their minds around them but ... as the more advanced tenses have been introduced I 'had' struggled with presenting, explaining, and ensuring the students understanding and sense of ease in using...I am so much more confident now. Thank you! well done.
Teacher, I've learned so much since I started watching your videos. Right now I feel much more confident to communicate in english. I am brazilian and here all the english courses are generally very expensive and I coud not afford one of them to improve my listening, writing and speaking, so I have been using youtube videos to learn. Thank you so much for your kindness.
Before this video I couldn't know the past perfect but when I saw this video i became master in past perfect so I'm very happy and glad to know your humble channel so I wish more lessons from you to us for know huge about English because we wanna become good in English ❤

There are no words I could use to show how I am grateful to you many many thanks. By the time I watched this video, I had knew very little about past of the past.
I never had seen a teacher like you. You explain so nice, I am going to see all the videos that you made. Thankful
When ever it is my exam I do my English grammar prepration from this best teacher
You're awesome, I love your videos. You are always so patience and explain everything in a way that is easy to learn. Thank you so much for your lessons, I have improved so much my vocabulary .
By the time I found this useful lesson, I hadn't completely understood all the uses regarding the past perfect tense. Thanks Rebecca.
What a lesson! I've never seen like this lesson before.❤️
I've never understood this tense 100%. So, hopefully I will have understood it by the end of the lesson. I'll be editing my message.
Edit 1: Ok, so because I'd already been reviewing this tense for a few months before I watched this video, I already knew how to use it. But I'd still misuse it occasionally. That's why I wanted to master this tense.
Edit 2: I have not really learnt much, but at least I'm having some fun while re-studying it.
Edit 3: The lesson's done. I think I pretty much know when and how to use it.
Thanks for your wonderful lesson.
Wonderful Teacher. She covered all the combinations of Past Perfect Tense. Thank you Madam!

Before I watched this lesson I hadn't known the past perfect confidently.

I went to the big park in London and I had seen lot of wild animals but I hadn't seen a lion.
I had never been in America since I was born.
I hadn't seen my family for six years.
I had just had my shower.
Had you had a nice car?
Where had you bought that dress?
Had she known where we are?
Teacher could you please check my examples? Thank so much for sharing an interesting lessons!!!
good explanation
Great.
5) 'I went to the park' happened first. So it should be 'I had gone to' ....and I saw a lot of....but I didn't see....
11) the last one : Did she know where we were/we had been
4) You can also say, When I met ... I had no.....but I had .....
6) ...... been to America ......
You are a great teacher and the kind twinkle in your eyes only adds to that!

Hi Teacher. I had spoken to her before I came to London. I had learned some words in English before I came to London, but I did not. How to use them until I watch your lessons. When we arrived, the meeting had started. By the time I moved to London, I had learned English, I had met many friends, and I had learned cooking. When the police arrived at the scene, the criminals had already left. She had left the party before you came. Before I sat he had pushed me. Before I left home I had taken a bath. Before I left home I had brushed my teeth.
Before I watched this video, I hadn't known the past perfect tense , thank you so much teacher, you are doing great keep on.
Nice
Ladie, thank you so much! Your class is awesome! You're a amazing teacher!!
I have started watching your videos recently. I really impressed the way you teach. Thank you so much
