  • What's the Difference Between the Prepositions... IN and ON?

    21/05/2019 Duration: 14min

    "In" is basically within, inside a container or box, maybe an enclosed space but not necessarily. "On" is related to surfaces. You can use "in" or "on" in the same sentence, but the meaning would change.

  • Stop being a student and start being a speaker

    16/05/2019 Duration: 17min

    I’ve noticed that there are 2 very different ways of learning: 1 for school and 1 for real life. They keep you from speaking English, because you aren’t required to apply it in real life in order to be rewarded. Our whole education system, for the most part, is broken because we have been taught to memorize and not apply concepts in real life. “Studying” English, in the traditional sense of the word, is the antithesis of speaking English. Let’s talk about the difference between studying and learning and speaking English “To study” means to read about it. To memorize lists of vocabulary words. It means you relegate the subject to study sessions, blocks of time when you might sit quietly at home in your room or maybe a desk at the library. Where does this get you? Maybe it gets you a better grade in your class if you have a quiz on vocabulary or grammar. Maybe it makes you feel better in the short-term because you don’t have to take any risks, like being embarrassed of the way you speak. It’s so

  • The Third Conditional in English Grammar with Examples

    11/02/2019 Duration: 06min

    How do you form the third conditional tense in English? The third conditional requires us to construct a sentence in two parts. We make the third conditional by using ‘if,’ the past perfect form of the verb in the first part of the sentence and then ‘would have’ and the past participle the second part of the sentence: if + past perfect, …would + have + past participle It talks about the past. It’s used to describe a situation that didn’t happen, and to imagine the result of this situation. If he had studied, he would have passed the exam (but, really we know he didn’t study and therefore he didn’t pass) If I hadn’t spent so much money in my 20’s, I wouldn’t have been poor in my 30’s (but I did spend a lot, and so I did become poor). If we had taken the subway, we wouldn’t have missed the plane (but we did not take the subway, and we did miss the plane) I wouldn’t have been tired if I had gone to bed earlier (but I was tired because I did not go to bed earlier) I would have become a lawyer if I had followed

  • SECOND CONDITIONAL - Quick & Clear English Grammar Explanation

    28/01/2019 Duration: 08min

    Second conditional English grammar can help you to create more complex expressions. Improve your fluency and sophistication in English! How do you form the second conditional tense in English? Did you know there are three uses for it? The second conditional requires us to construct a sentence in two parts. The second conditional uses if then the past simple tense then ‘would’ and the infinitive: if + past simple, …would + infinitive (It is considered most correct to use ‘were’ instead of ‘was’ with ‘I’ and ‘he/she/it’. However, native speakers often say ‘was.’). The second conditional tense has three uses. SECOND CONDITIONAL ENGLISH GRAMMAR FOR FUTURE IMPROBABILITY First, we can use it to talk about things in the future that are probably not going to be true. It is unlikely but not entirely impossible. Maybe there is a 1% chance. For example, you want to talk about a dream you’re imagining. If I won the lottery, I would buy a big house. (I probably won’t win the lottery) He would travel all over the world

  • FIRST CONDITIONAL Tense - Quick & Clear English Grammar Tips

    10/01/2019 Duration: 05min

    THE FIRST CONDITIONAL Would you like to make longer sentences? Using the conditional tenses can help you to express logical ideas and sound more fluent in your speaking. So, how do you form the first conditional grammar tense in English? This tense requires us to construct a sentence in two parts. It is created with “if” then the present simple tense, after which comes the future simple plus the infinitive: if + present simple, … will + infinitive So, this tense is used to talk about things which might possibly happen in the future. Of course, we can’t always know what will happen in the future. However, this describes possible things, which could easily come true. If it rains, I won’t go to the beach. I‘ll go to the party tomorrow if I study today, If I have enough money, I‘ll buy the concert tickets. He will be late if traffic is bad. She will fail the test if she does not study. If I see her, I‘ll tell her. FIRST VS. ZERO CONDITIONAL: The 1st conditional describes a specific situation, whereas the zero

  • THE ZERO CONDITIONAL - QUICK & CLEAR ENGLISH GRAMMAR EXPLANATION

    07/01/2019 Duration: 06min

    Using the zero conditional English grammar tense is a good way to improve your English, make longer sentences, and speak more like a native. How do you form the zero conditional tense in English? It requires us to construct a sentence in two parts. We can make a zero conditional sentence with two present simple verbs — one in the ‘if clause’ and one in the ‘main clause’: If / when + present simple base verb, …. present simple base verb. You can also think of it this way: — IF this, THEN that. This tense is used when the result will generally always happen. So, if water reaches 100 degrees, it always boils. It’s a fact. The result of the ‘if clause’ is always the main clause. However, we can create sentences in either order: — If + present simple, … present simple OR — Present simple… if + present simple. Notice in the second example, we don’t need a comma to separate the two parts of the sentence but in the first one we do. The ‘if’ in this conditional can usually be replaced by ‘when’ without changing the
