Thank you for the lesson. Here are my practice. I have big family. There are 8 people in my family. I am the middle child as I have 2 elder sister and 2 younger brothers. My Grandma and my parents ofcouse. I am very close to my family although we live in different city. I go back to my hometown once or twice a year but I talk to them on skype every so often. I cook traditional cuisine for my them whenever I am back to my hometown. My family said they love my cooking except my younger brother he always tease me and said "please don't open a restaurent". We share our experience and opinions within family and keep look out for one another. I am so glad to have this family.
Thanks for sharing! Here are a few suggestions for you: 1) 'I have a big family,' not, 'I have big family'. 2) '...2 elder sisters,' not, 'sister'. 3) '...we live in different cities,' not, 'city'. Hope this is useful for you!
Many thanks about your lesson, Oli. This's my practice: My family has 6 members: my grandparents, my parents, my aunt and me. I don't see my family often because I live in a different city for study, but I speak to them regularly by phone. We all get together once a month, exactly when I have much freetime like weekend or holiday, which is always very noisy but lots of fun.
Nice answer! Here are three corrections for you: 1. I live in a different city for *university/college*... 2. We all get together once a month, *whenever* I have... 3. 'Free time' is two words. Thanks for sharing!
My immediate family is quite large: there are 9 people in my immediate family. I have 3 brothers and 3 sisters.they are all older than me so I'm youngest child. I don't have kids but I have a lot of nieces and nephews. I don't see my siblings often because most of them are overseas. I only live with my parents and my sister who is 4 years older than me. We all get together once or twice a year which is always very lovely and warmy.
I'm 90's guy in China, most of 90's people are only child in China. But I was not feeling lonely, even enjoy it. I speak mandarin and Cantonese, I 'm learning English and Japanese

Hello! I'm from India I like the way of teaching and his voice is so bold, thanks for giving different type of refreshment. That great. I love all family of Oxford online English
There are 4 people in my int immediate family. I have one younger brother so I am the oldest child. I don't have any kids neither a wife yet. I adore staying close with my family and playing some board games which is splendid. I see you very often since we are living in the same house. For me, the most precious time is the time I spend with my family.
Hi Thuresh. Thanks for watching and sharing your response. Nice job! Here are a few suggestions for you: 1) '...kids or a wife yet,' not, 'neither.' 2) 'I see them very often,' not, 'you.' Hope this helps you!
There are six members in my immediate family: my grandparents,my parents, one brother and myself. I have been living with my family since 20 years though I moved to other city for my graduation but I always came to see them on weekends. I'm very close to my family because I spent some time without them and I reckon that this the most purest and permanent relationship. Although I don't see my brother so often ,because he moved to Canada for his studies but thanks to video calls we keep ourselves connected through them
Nice response about your family. Here are a few suggestions for you: 1) '...living with my family for 20 years,' not, 'since'. 2) '...moved to another city after my graduation,' not, 'for'. 3) Do you still see them on weekends? If so, you want to say: '...but I always come to see them,' not, 'came'. Hope this is useful for you!
Thanks Oli , this is my first time I watched your online spoken English lesson .It's very helpful for me and now I am learning a new word from this lesson .So , thank you very much for the way you're doing the process. It's quite helpful for me.
Thanks for your friendly presentation. It helps me prepare the longer speech for my family especially expand family. Besides, the pet is important my life
Thank you so much for this useful lesson. And now, I want to introduce my family with you! My immediate family is quite small. There are four people: My father, my two brothers and me. My two brothers older than me, so I am the youngest people in my family. Because my father is one of seven children, so I have a lot of cousins, who is kind of my brothers and sisters. I don't see my family often because we don't live together. My family lives in Bình Định province but I live in Hồ Chí Minh city for my work, I miss them so much. Although I can't meet them everyday, but I speak with them regularly by Zalo. And we all get together once or twice a year when I have holiday, especially Tet holiday. When I come home and gather with my family and relatives, it always noisy but lots of fun! That's all. Thank you for reading!
Good answer! Here are three corrections for you: 1. My two brothers *are* older than me... 2. Don't use 'because...so...' in the same sentence. Choose one or the other. 3. ...I have a lot of cousins, who *are* kind of my brothers and sisters. Thanks for sharing your answer with us!
Your lessons are very nice and useful to me.. My practice time.. There are 4members in my family.. myself and my husband and my two kids..i have a elder daughter and a younger son.. she is studying in grade 2 and my little one just turned one..i love my parents and with their support i have came across many challenges in my life.. there are many people in my extended family and i am little bit away from there..i love my kids i spend all my time with my son..he is so naughty..his naughtiness make me to feel love and warmth from him to the core .. thanks oli for your wonderful lessons
I'm really close with my family. We have lunch and dinner together everyday . Moreover, I often spend my holiday staying with my family all day instead of having time with my friends. My family is an intended family including my older sister, my brother -in-law, two nieces , my husband, me and my parents of course. My family is the best thing in my life.
Thanks for sharing! You wrote a great response! Here are a few suggestions for you: 1) '...together every day,' not, 'everyday'. 2) What do you mean by an 'intended' family? Hope this is useful for you!
Hello! Thank you very much for your lesson. This is my practice: There are 5 people in my family: my grandmother, my parents, my brother, which is two years older than me and myself. I'm very close to my family. Although I and my brother have to go to school in another city, not in my hometown, but we try to spend as much time as possible with the family. We have lunch together every weekend. At that lunch, I usually help my mother to cook some Vietnamese traditional foods. By the way, I play badminton with my brother twice a week, he's funny and joke me at all time. I love my family very much.
Nice answer! Three corrections for you: 1) '...my brother, who is...' not '...brother, which...' 2) '...my brother and I' not '...I and my brother.' 3) You can't use 'although' and 'but' in the same sentence. You should remove one of them. Hope this makes sense!
Excuse me! May I ask you a question. His voice is pure british sound, isn't it? Sometimes I am quite confused with words such as: stand, clamp, bank, ... with ae sound. This is not very understanable when someone asks me such questions. Could you give me the link to evidence this. Hope to hear your answer!
thank you..this is on my family..i have quite small immediate family and quite big extended family..in my immediate family there are my husband my son and my self..iam so close to my family and try to spent as much time as possible with my family..my son is so lovely and he is just two years old..i am one of four children so that i have lots of in laws...we all get together rarely because we are not close to each others..most of my siblings are in different cities..although we talk on whatsp every so often...❤
My immediate family is quite small because there are only 4 people in my family: my dad, my mom, my brother and me. My dad is one of six children so, I have a quite big extended family. I have a lot of cousins, who are kind of like my brothers and sisters. We usually see each other once a year especially in occasion like Chinese New Year which is always noisy but lots of fun.
There are seven people in my immediate family we´re so close, we usually all get together at least twice or three times a month. We go to my grandma´s house and make delicious food and talk to each other about everything, and sometimes we go to the mall and we usually see the many stores, and also, we have lunch too. So, I have three brothers and I´m the oldest among them, we get along very well, however I haven´t see my others two brothers often, because they lived so far to me. I married but I don´t have children yet, however I have to nephews their names are Bryan and Miguel. I see my other relatives, but not often as my immediate family. We get together each once a month, we usually go to my aunt´s house and enjoy our time together. I love all my family. Thank you so much for this videos, it´s helping me a lot!
Nice answer! Here are three corrections for you: 1. You often use commas where you need full stops. Finish a sentence with a full stop; then start a new one! 2. 'I don't see my other two brothers often...' not 'I haven't see...' 3. 'They live so far from me,' not '...lived so far to me.' Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for your lesson, this is my practice : there are four people in my family : myself, my sister and my parents. I have one younger sister so that I’m the oldest . I’m very close to my family, we have dinner together everyday . My dad always cooks something delicious

They are the good blessing for me. Thank for reading my comment. I am a little good at English because of your website. Thank for all teachers' teaching. :)
Hi Myat. Here are some corrections for you: 1) 'I have a medium-sized family,' not, 'a middle family'. 2) '...we all live together except for my grandparents,' not, 'We live together expect my grandparents'. 3) '...family is big but I don't see them often,' not, '...family is big. But I don't see them often'. Hope this helps you!

Thank you Teacher.
Good morning Martin and Oli Sir ,I have been watching ur videos last last 3 years I have learnt many things from ur videos u both are great mentor and ur way of teaching very easy to understand .I m really thankful to both of u .
So glad you've enjoyed the lessons, Santoshi!
Hello! I'm from India I like the way of teaching and his voice is so bold, thanks for giving different type of refreshment. That great. I love all family of Oxford online English
Now I know more about the vocabulary of a family. This video is quite useful to describe family for IELTS speaking. Thanks.
There are 4 people in my int immediate family. I have one younger brother so I am the oldest child. I don't have any kids neither a wife yet. I adore staying close with my family and playing some board games which is splendid. I see you very often since we are living in the same house. For me, the most precious time is the time I spend with my family.
Hi Thuresh. Thanks for watching and sharing your response. Nice job! Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...kids or a wife yet,' not, 'neither.'
2) 'I see them very often,' not, 'you.'
Hope this helps you!
This teacher helps me a lot, may god bless him🤍
Hello brother, I am from India.
Very good learning for English speaking thank you
your way of teaching is incredible
Hi, Oli. Really appreciate your lessons. I like you and your class. Thanks for your giving. Wish you all the best!
There are six members in my immediate family: my grandparents,my parents, one brother and myself. I have been living with my family since 20 years though I moved to other city for my graduation but I always came to see them on weekends. I'm very close to my family because I spent some time without them and I reckon that this the most purest and permanent relationship. Although I don't see my brother so often ,because he moved to Canada for his studies but thanks to video calls we keep ourselves connected through them
Nice response about your family. Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...living with my family for 20 years,' not, 'since'.
2) '...moved to another city after my graduation,' not, 'for'.
3) Do you still see them on weekends? If so, you want to say: '...but I always come to see them,' not, 'came'.
Hope this is useful for you!
I really struggle to get speak fluent but now I can thank you I really like your video it is interesting for me

Thank you so much for this useful lesson. And now, I want to introduce my family with you! My immediate family is quite small. There are four people: My father, my two brothers and me. My two brothers older than me, so I am the youngest people in my family. Because my father is one of seven children, so I have a lot of cousins, who is kind of my brothers and sisters. I don't see my family often because we don't live together. My family lives in Bình Định province but I live in Hồ Chí Minh city for my work, I miss them so much. Although I can't meet them everyday, but I speak with them regularly by Zalo. And we all get together once or twice a year when I have holiday, especially Tet holiday. When I come home and gather with my family and relatives, it always noisy but lots of fun! That's all. Thank you for reading!
Good answer! Here are three corrections for you:
1. My two brothers *are* older than me...
2. Don't use 'because...so...' in the same sentence. Choose one or the other.
3. ...I have a lot of cousins, who *are* kind of my brothers and sisters.
Thanks for sharing your answer with us!
i
love your story
Your lessons are very nice and useful to me..
My practice time..
There are 4members in my family.. myself and my husband and my two kids..i have a elder daughter and a younger son.. she is studying in grade 2 and my little one just turned one..i love my parents and with their support i have came across many challenges in my life.. there are many people in my extended family and i am little bit away from there..i love my kids i spend all my time with my son..he is so naughty..his naughtiness make me to feel love and warmth from him to the core .. thanks oli for your wonderful lessons
Hi oli thank you I like ur Explanation I'm new students.
I'm really close with my family. We have lunch and dinner together everyday . Moreover, I often spend my holiday staying with my family all day instead of having time with my friends. My family is an intended family including my older sister, my brother -in-law, two nieces , my husband, me and my parents of course. My family is the best thing in my life.
Thanks for sharing! You wrote a great response! Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...together every day,' not, 'everyday'.
2) What do you mean by an 'intended' family?
Hope this is useful for you!

Cri longuement
Hello! Thank you very much for your lesson. This is my practice: There are 5 people in my family: my grandmother, my parents, my brother, which is two years older than me and myself. I'm very close to my family. Although I and my brother have to go to school in another city, not in my hometown, but we try to spend as much time as possible with the family. We have lunch together every weekend. At that lunch, I usually help my mother to cook some Vietnamese traditional foods. By the way, I play badminton with my brother twice a week, he's funny and joke me at all time. I love my family very much.
Nice answer! Three corrections for you:
1) '...my brother, who is...' not '...brother, which...'
2) '...my brother and I' not '...I and my brother.'
3) You can't use 'although' and 'but' in the same sentence. You should remove one of them.
Hope this makes sense!
Thanks very much
Hihi
Excuse me! May I ask you a question. His voice is pure british sound, isn't it? Sometimes I am quite confused with words such as: stand, clamp, bank, ... with ae sound. This is not very understanable when someone asks me such questions. Could you give me the link to evidence this.
Hope to hear your answer!
I wonder why " I and my brother" is not correct. Can you explain to me, please!
Thank you for such great lessons. It is a treat learning from you.
Thanks for your speaking English.
Hello Oli , I do really love your way of teaching. I admire u really ... keep it up
my regards
thank you..this is on my family..i have quite small immediate family and quite big extended family..in my immediate family there are my husband my son and my self..iam so close to my family and try to spent as much time as possible with my family..my son is so lovely and he is just two years old..i am one of four children so that i have lots of in laws...we all get together rarely because we are not close to each others..most of my siblings are in different cities..although we talk on whatsp every so often...❤
My immediate family is quite small because there are only 4 people in my family: my dad, my mom, my brother and me. My dad is one of six children so, I have a quite big extended family. I have a lot of cousins, who are kind of like my brothers and sisters. We usually see each other once a year especially in occasion like Chinese New Year which is always noisy but lots of fun.
There are seven people in my immediate family we´re so close, we usually all get together at least twice or three times a month. We go to my grandma´s house and make delicious food and talk to each other about everything, and sometimes we go to the mall and we usually see the many stores, and also, we have lunch too. So, I have three brothers and I´m the oldest among them, we get along very well, however I haven´t see my others two brothers often, because they lived so far to me. I married but I don´t have children yet, however I have to nephews their names are Bryan and Miguel. I see my other relatives, but not often as my immediate family. We get together each once a month, we usually go to my aunt´s house and enjoy our time together. I love all my family.
Thank you so much for this videos, it´s helping me a lot!
Nice answer! Here are three corrections for you:
1. You often use commas where you need full stops. Finish a sentence with a full stop; then start a new one!
2. 'I don't see my other two brothers often...' not 'I haven't see...'
3. 'They live so far from me,' not '...lived so far to me.'
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much!

They are the good blessing for me. Thank for reading my comment. I am a little good at English because of your website. Thank for all teachers' teaching. :)
Hi Myat. Here are some corrections for you:
1) 'I have a medium-sized family,' not, 'a middle family'.
2) '...we all live together except for my grandparents,' not, 'We live together expect my grandparents'.
3) '...family is big but I don't see them often,' not, '...family is big. But I don't see them often'.

Hello! Thank you very much for your lesson Oli. I'd wish to do it with you. This is my practice, it might be interesting: There are four people in my intermediate family: My parents, my sister and myself. I'm very close to my family. I don't have kids yet but I like to have a huge family one day. I live with my family and my mother cooks yummy food everyday. I have lots of cousins. We always eat together and I usually help my mother to cook Maldivian traditional foods. By the way, I play with my younger sister who likes to play all day!
She always likes to lie down next to me on my parents bed or even on the playing mat. My sister also likes to listen carefully to the story's I tell her. She really likes to play with me a lot. We all go to the park if the weather is nice. I love my family very much. Thank you! Maakin 7yrs
Glad you enjoyed the lesson, Shama. Here are some corrections for you:
1) '...but I'd like to have a huge family...' not, 'I like'.
2) '...help my mother cook,' not, 'to cook'.

I come from a immediate family including five members. I'm the middle child, my brother is five years older than me and I have a younger brother who has just started Secondary school. I don't see my family often because I study and live in other City, but I speak to them on facebook regularly. Once or twice a month, I come back home, I often play badminton with my brother. I like everything that my mom cooks, she is really good at cooking. I love my family so much.
Hi Thuy. Thanks for sharing your response. Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...an immediate,' not, 'a immediate.'
2) It's not necessary to capitalize 'secondary' and 'city,' however, you should capitalize 'Facebook.'
3) '...back home. I often play...' not, '...back home, I often play...'
Hope this is useful for you!
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 Thank you so much😍
Greetings from Adana, Turkey 🇹🇷!
Thanks a lot for your efforts to improve our skills. I discovered you just yesterday morning and watching and listening you since then.

There are five people in my family. My parents, two younger sisters and me. I love my family so much. Now I live far from my house but sometimes I get back home to see my family. My mom often cook delicious food for me and I love the time my family together.
Nice answer! Here are three corrections for you:
1. '...I live far from home/my parents...' not '...far from my house...'
2. My mom often *cooks* delicious food...
3. I love the time my family *has/spends* together.
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much!
I come from a small
family: I just have one sister, who’s ten
years younger than me. I’m the oldest
in the family. My sister
has three
children, so I have two nephews
and the
niece. They live
in Russia so I
don’t see them often, although we
talk on Skype every so often.
Another nice answer! Here is one tip:
'...two nephews and a niece,' not, 'the'.
Hope this is useful for you!

There are eight people in my family: I have two sisters, my parents, my grandmother, two nephews, my niece and myself. I`m the youngest in the family. I`m very close to my family. I have dinner with my parents every day. I see my older sisters once every two weeks, usually we do our nails or dye our hair. We are a very close-knit family. We love each other.
Hi Alexandra. Thanks for watching and sharing your response. You did a great job! One tip for you:
Don't forget to use the apostrophe (') rather than the backquote (`) in contractions. For example: 'I'm the youngest...' not, 'I`m the youngest...'
Hope this helps you!
Thank you very much.İ m from Azerbaijan..you speak so beautiful..İ admire😍

Gracias por sus clases, me resultan muy útiles.
Saludos desde Montevideo Uruguay 🇺🇾👍
There are four people in my immediate family:my parents, my little sister and me of course. I'm the oldest child in my family bcauz my sister is over 15 years younger than me.What a big gap! I have lived with my parents since I was born so I'm very close to them. We always have our meals together everyday. My mum always cooks something special for us and we really enjoy all her dishes. She's the best cook for me. I am university student but all colleges and universities have been closed for over 2years in my country. But I can do self-study by the help of internet access. My sister has just started kindergarten. She's so lovely and I love her a lot.
That's my practice and thank you for useful tips Oli
Thanks for sharing a great response, Leon. Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...family because my sister...' not, 'bcauz.'
2) '...meals together every day,' not, 'everyday.'
3) 'I am a university student...' not, 'I am university student...'
Hope this helps you!
Очень познавательно, спасибо)
You are good teacher
Thank you so much
Hi! This is really a helpful lesson. I hope you will make more videos like this to help everyone in the whole world to practice English. This is my answer: There are six people in my immediate family: my parents, three younger sisters and myself. I don't have children yet, but I very close to my sisters. I'm the oldest child, so I always help my mother to take care of our family such as cooking, tidy up, play with my youngest sister,...
We are living in a beautiful house in the North of the Hanoi suburb. We often have dinner at my grandmother's house with my cousins, my aunts and my uncles, which is very noisy, but it is a ton of fun. After eating dinner we often sing, dance and play a game.
Thanks for watching and sharing your answer! Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...but I'm very close to my sisters,' not, 'I very close'.
2) '...take care of our family with things such as cooking...' not, '...take care of our family such as cooking...'.
3) '...cooking, tidying up, and playing with my younger sister,' not, '...cooking, tidy up, play with my youngest sister'.
Hope this helps you!
