Thank you so much, this is what I've been looking for. I thought of how confusing it could be to teach 'will' and 'be going to' (since they have lots of uses) but you make it look so simple!
You're such a lovely person. We can tell you're a great teacher. Your explanation is just so easy to get and learn. Thank you for sharing, I'm definitely going to share this with my class this weekend. Lots of love.
this was absolutely usefull, I have my intership tomorrow and my subject is will and be going to. Your video gave me a lot of ideas how to manage the class and make task based activities. Great video!!
Thank you! You're very artistic. My major struggle is how to avoid translation into the first language. They say there's no such thing as the first language, but I deal with it every time in my classes, kids try to translate in their heads.
I would say, use flash card, mimics... Try as hard as you can to explain without translating. But with kids, you can use their mother tongue occasionally because they can easily feel lost.
@@debgam Thank you so much! True, this is what I actually do. It”s tough and time consuming, but there’s no other way. I agree with Drue. We should avoid text booking our students as we want to achieve real fluency. Total translation is cheating in some sense.
this is a good video, i am still learning english and some of my university buddies ask me if could teach them. so that i was looking for teaching tips. and you just taught me a lot.
It's a really good method and it's the same I use, I was needing a guide to do it better and I find you, thank you so much, I will use it in my next class
You've noticed the fakeness of all these distinctions. We do use present continuous in that case...as well as going to, and if you say "I think" first then "will". All this stuff is often interchangeable and should not be taught as if there were big distinctions.
Hi Eve, I'm so glad you liked it! I'm uploading a new one at the moment, so it should be available in a few hours (my internet connection is a little slow). I recently created a Facebook Group for ESL Trainers, called "The Nest" which you're very welcome to join! It's for trainers to share ideas, experiences, discuss training issues etc. The link is: facebook.com/groups/TheESLNest/ Hope you have a great day! Jacqui
I thought you could use either "will" and "going to" for predictions? For example, when talking about the weather, you can use both. I am more confused now than I was before... ;)
Don't get confused. Your are right. in 90%+ situations, will and going to are quite interchangeable. Only when it's a very spontaneous reaction would one definitely use will, or with the expressions: I think, I hope and probably. I've been an English teacher for about 30 years, and these convoluted complex "differrentiations" between going to and will make me a bit angry because they make a big deal about something that isn't a big deal.
@@erichamilton3373 hehe, true about the "big deal". ;) I am an English teacher, too, and of course, I know about the spontaneous decisions and using "will", but like you say, in 90% or more situations the two are interchangeable - just like so many other things in the English language!
Sunkara Eliya It means it is planned, but with no fixed date. For example, I want to paint the kitchen. I have the paint, I have the paintbrushes. But I don’t know exactly when I can paint. This means: “I am going to paint the kitchen. It is going to happen. When exactly? I don’t know.” I hope that helps!
Of course one can use "will" when going to a football match. Don't create false dichotomies between "will" and "going to--they're usually interchangeable.

Great thanks for your useful and right to the point grammar lessons! 🤗
Thank you very much
Great teacher 👏
I have always been taught that when it comes to plans and arrangements we would rather use the present continuous ( verb+ ing) instead of going to
You've noticed the fakeness of all these distinctions. We do use present continuous in that case...as well as going to, and if you say "I think" first then "will". All this stuff is often interchangeable and should not be taught as if there were big distinctions.
excellent
You are amazing!!! thank you so much from Russia! I am looking forward to hear new tips from You! Best regards! =)

Hi Miss, Can I ask you a question? What is your method to teach that grammar, deductive or inductive?
Many thanks lovely teacher!

Your shirt is nice!
😍😍😍😍😍😍
I liked your method a lot .and you look so adorable
What is the meaning of "going to happen" in English?
Sunkara Eliya It means it is planned, but with no fixed date.
For example, I want to paint the kitchen. I have the paint, I have the paintbrushes. But I don’t know exactly when I can paint. This means: “I am going to paint the kitchen. It is going to happen. When exactly? I don’t know.”
I hope that helps!
present continous can also be usedto talk about planned actions.
Of course one can use "will" when going to a football match. Don't create false dichotomies between "will" and "going to--they're usually interchangeable.
thank you, extremely careful
