I liked the listing class.
I visited New York eight years ago. It was a really attractive city.
Thank you always for your class.
Please give me another listening class next time.
Thanks for learning with this lesson! I will make more listening lessons in the future, but I will make other kinds of lessons as well.
Thanks a lot for this lesson. I learn more words and expressions likes “a sea of people”, “bullies”, “Downstairs” and “Waffles” that I didn’t know them yet.
By the way I got 9/10 correct questions.
Great!
Thanks Alex!
You’re very welcome! I’m glad you liked the lesson.
Thank you so much, Alex, for this amazing audio lesson! It’s quite useful experience. I love your pronunciation and all the stories were really interesting. To be honest, I didn’t answer all the questions correctly. I wish I could visit Canada and New Your one day. I’m sure it’d be unforgettable experience. Thanks a bunch for your lessons! Take care.
Arigato sensei Alex!
My pleasure, Javier. Have a good week!
Hi Alex, thank you so much for your new, and unexpected lesson.
I really enjoyed it, and helped me to improve my listening skills.
I have one notice in the third story about the verb employed with hair,
Should we say I brush or I comb my hair ?
Thank you again Mr Alex for what you do for us, you are wonderful.
I’m glad this was unexpected. It seems like it has been a pleasant surprise, which makes me quite happy.
I say both. Usually, shorter hair is combed, and longer hair is brushed.
You speak so clearly that it’s great pleasure to listen to you
That’s nice to hear. Thanks! I’m glad this was helpful.
Great ! It’s a good way to improve your listening skills. At the beginning I didn’t understand well. And no subtitles to help you! But as I listened again (and again) , what I usually don’t do, my understanding became better. Great idea to allow access to the written text only at the end. Very good exercice ! Very good lesson ! Very good teacher ! Merci beaucoup Alex.
I’m glad you listened to the audio multiple times. Also, thank you for mentioning the transcript for the bonus quiz. That was an idea I had, and I’m glad it was a good one. 😅
Great Lesson! Where can I get the transcript? I did not catch that – perhaps I was not listening!!!
Alex How often do you do this kind of exercises? because I live it. greetings from mexico
This is my first time posting this kind of lesson. The feedback here and on YouTube has been very positive, so I will likely make more lessons like this in the future. I’d like to make the lessons more interactive for learners in general.
Thanks Alex for this amazing new way to practice English here.
This was the best lesson that i ever had in envid.com, thx for all ADAM 10/10
