108 - How to Continue a Conversation in English
28/09/2016 Duração: 05minIn this lesson, you will learn how to keep a conversation going, without running out of things to say! Here’s an example of how NOT to have an English conversation: “Did you have a good weekend?” “Yes, I did. And you?” “Yeah.” Unfortunately, the conversation stops here because there’s no natural way to continue it. This is OK if you only want to have a quick conversation (for example, if you are quickly passing a co-worker in the hallway). But how can you have a longer conversation in English?

106 - 9 Collocations, 8 Phrasal Verbs, and 7 Idioms with the word SET
14/09/2016 Duração: 10minSometimes people ask me to explain in detail the difference between a collocation, a phrasal verb, an idiom, a slang word, a proverb, etc. To be honest, that's the wrong question. All of these types of expressions are part of the English language, but most native English speakers could NOT tell you the technical differences between them. The most important thing for an English learner is to know what they mean and how to use them. So today's lesson is a mix of idioms, phrasal verbs, and collocations with the word ""set"" - all with examples so you can see them in use!
