Thank you so much james, I really appreciate your advice, this lesson is so useful and im gonna visit this web page more often right. Thank you again. blessings, marry chrismas and happy new year..

bairon stiven

James, Could you make a video about word “pitch” and different meanings of this word. Every time I see this word while reading or watching something, there appears to be one more meaning of the word depending on context. I can’t catch the idea how and where to use it or not to use. Or at least, tell your colleagues to make a video on it.

Hasan

That’s a good idea! “Pitch” has so many different meanings–it can be a kind of tree sap, a playing field, a proposal for a new book or movie, throwing a baseball, and more. I’ll add it to the lesson request list.

engVid Moderator

Deal!

Hasan

Very nice lesson.thank u.

Ratana men

Thank you, Mr. James.

My name is Ayik, i’m a student,
and my english is bad. I just searching for english lesson on internet few days ago and found great site, and i love to study in here every day :D

I just finish your lesson about “Reading skills that work” and take the quiz and i got 90 :D
when i take a quiz, I always check which part that i false,
and in this quiz a false on number 9.

“9. Is it better to practice every day or to take a rest between sessions?
– every day
– rest between sessions”

my answer is “every day” but the correct one is “rest between sessions”. It seems weird to me, is there a mistake at your question or i just do not get what the question mean ? can you help me ?

ayik

thanks for the helping ,

Hi teacher, in my opinion it’s better to learn every day the foreign language and after a few days to take a break, not after a session. Anyway i like your teaching. Keep doing.

Zahraaaltaee4

very practical ways to make an improvement. thanks a million

Fishbach

Thank you, Jame. But you know what I have learnt with my English teacher at school, he teaches me to read the questions first finding the keyword of each question then imagine to synonym or antonym of those keywords then try to find them in the text. This is a panic way because I am not a rich vocabulary guy. Furthermore, IELTS’ reading task has a lot of tricks, especially the vocabulary sweep.

Phalla007

I will have to watch the video again because I have many doubts at this moment about all these concepts. Thanks a lot, teacher James, a very good explanation.

angardiobel

Watching the lesson twice aid me to remember some grammatical structures I have listened to the explanation, like what a paragraph means, and it would mean that you understand the main topic and reduce the words that you use to explain it, you would run with a short explanation easier than the original.

angardiobel

thanks！

shihai182
