    I invite you to look at my videos... they may help your students.

  • hello.nw only am learning english..i want 2 learn more nd want to talk fluently..so plz help me...

  • Thank you for the videos! :) They are totally useful... I'm a teacher of English and I need to teach Indifrect Objects. I don't want to use only grammar structures and all that. Can you help me in some way?

  • @PaulSLambeth Thanks you very much! I thought that "English teacher" means British teacher =-). English one and from Britain, England.

    Also, I have an answer for your question on films your visitors like. (Please, correct me if prepositions are wrong). My favourite one is an "Island" by Pavel Lungin, but nevertheless the next one is "New York Stories" made by three directors and I like like the first part of Scorcese the most.

    P.S. Isn`t An English teacher better that without An?

  • @inyazserg First: "English teacher" is more common than "teacher of English" but both are acceptable. Second: "... 3 language" is wrong; it should be "... 3 languages".

  • @JoakoOvlack

    Please, don`t tell more "grammar idioms". There are either grammar or idioms. Grammar idioms don`t exist. Ask Frank.

    Present Simple is grammar. "He goes mad when irritated" contains an idiom in a Present Simple tense.

    "I want to learn more grammar and (more) idioms".

    I want more oranges and (more) cucumbers.

    I want to know more languageS (there`s a lot of them) and so I should cram on Japanese, Spanish and French.

    And, yes, I`m a private tutor of English.
