    Some of the phrases Marina uses in her videos might sound correct and plausible, but they’re not actually used in real life but only exist in dictionaries or are used in the wrong contexts. It feels like she’s just reading straight from one. That’s why it’s important to learn a language from a native speaker with a certified teaching license

    Hi Kevin
    After seeing her English being corrected by Kevin and realized that she has been wrong she tries to double down and keep making mistakes . And i think she is making them on purpose as she is too proud !
    Actually she doesn't care of learners and the wrong way she is teaching English . What she cares the most of is her Bank account. That's it .
    I have never ever learn an English Word from this woman!
    Keep it up Kevin!

      Yeah, sometimes it seems to me that she makes mistakes on purpose, but I think she doesn't, she really believes she speaks perfectly and that's a sign of arrogance and pride and you're right she doesn't care about teaching good English, she just cares about making money or profits that's all, as simple as that.

  • @hamedhosseini2155

    ABOUT THE THIRD MISTAKE;
    She said "he was tell me"
    And the correct expression is;
    -"He was tellING me".( past continuos)
    OR.
    She said;
    "You need to sell a house in order to walk into the store and I'D BE LIKE (or I'LL BE LIKE)" I didn't get it quite well.
    AND in my opinion, the correct expression should be "AND I WAS LIKE".
    (because I guess she's speaking in the past tense).
    # This is the way I see it.
    But I'll be looking forward your correction Kevin.
    But, it could also be;
    "DO you need to sell a house".
    # she didn't use the helping verb.
    # But sometimes there's no need to use a helping verb, using the intonation is enough to make it a question.
    Thanks a lot in advance for the answer👍.

    Sell a house ? 😮 How many houses does she have ?
    Even if the word "a" is replaced by "your", the meaning is still not very clear to me. Does it mean entering the store (a privileged one) requires a membership fee, which is worth the value of a house ? Is it an exaggeration that the items sold in the store are so expensive that you can only afford them by selling your house ? Troublesome !

To the best of my knowlegde, it would be far better to frame her throught as follows: "He told me (that) you needed to sell a house in order to walk into the store, I replied that I was astonished that you needed to sell a house, and he went ahead and explained to me that I was being sarcastic."
