Hi, Annie. I'm from Brazil and it is a pleasure listening some advice about English grammar from you. I'm a teacher of History here in my country, and I also enjoy learning other nice things: languages and cultures that are many different of mine. Because of that, I have studied ancient Rome for two years in my master degree. One day, maybe, I'm going to be able to speak confident your native language. I can understand, read, and write in English, in most of the time correctly, I think, however speak sometimes seems a nightmare. For that, I really appreciated what you do with us when you teach us. You are always kind and I've been learning a lot with your explanations. Maybe I won't be able to demonstrate my gratitude in a few words, but I have to say: You are such an awesome teacher! Have a great day. I wish you warm greetings from Brazil. See ya.

Dear Teacher, my name is Hoang Truong and have been living in Sydney, Australia for 38 years. I regret that I know you too late in my life. Tonight is the first time I have a golden chance to listen to your very friendly, sweet voice with different useful English lessons. With a lovely torch you have brought beautiful light to this world! I would like to thank you for every thing and wish all the best to your family. Hoang
Your explanation is so awesome Annie .I feel happy when I spend time in listening to your instructions .
I listen your Deck so many years . Just sincerely appreciate your truly English speaking, I listen your video when I commuter daily 1 hr
Thank you Annie for the wonderful and practical strategy! I will keep that in mind and will do more drills and repetitions to create good habits for correct expressions.
personally, i find that Annie's speach is more spontaneous than other teachers and i can perceive the thinking of her. her class is more like talk show which reveals her strong abilities in the field. i appreciate that.

Thanks Annie 🙏🙏🌹🌹
you're great. I loved you're speak.
l like your channel because she speaks well and also spoken slowly that’s why l follow you good teacher , god bless you
Madam your feed back is very clearly.
It's a great lesson and great (and also beautiful) teacher.
Thumbs up! Thanks for fixing our usual mistakes. We non native English speakers make those mistakes because we do not use English for 24 hours. We only use our English when we happen to see and meet Foreign visitors or guests and when we are in the English lessons in the classroom. As soon as we are free from the lesson, we don't use English outside in our daily interactions with each other. This is our biggest problem. Using English only in English classrooms or meeting with foriegn tourists. I would like to ask you if how to cultivate a habit of speaking English outside the class and I have to say that once long time ago I tried to speak English with my classmate and it worked out pretty good but that wasn't not everyday. That was only for few days. When you start speaking English outside where English is not spoken at all, you feel embarrassed and discomfort. When you go to the shop, market, school, park or anywhere outside, you speak your native language because they don't know English. When you start speaking English outside, why we get stuck and poor? How to learn to speak English in an environment where English is not spoken at all in public? What to do about it?

Thanks for the question. And I totally hear you. I've had the same challenges in trying to keep up my second language skills when I don't live in the country. One recommendation I have is finding on online speaking partner or a community where you can practice real-world conversations, even on topics that are outside your day-to-day English conversations. This can provide opportunities to engage on topics that are unusual and help you learn how to navigate those experiences with confidence.
Thank you Teacher for this great lesson, It was very grateful for me. I hope you're well. What amazing lesson!

Hello Annie! I’m from Ukraine and I’ve been trying to speak English for a very long time. I’m still a bit worried about my English. But when I turned this video on, I heard your incredible advice and your advice was very good and I understand now. The half of the video was the only thing I needed but the advice I think I also needed. Now it’s not “I going to Safe way.” Its “I’m (I am) going to Safe way.”

If you don't know what mistakes you're making, you can't fix them - it is so true. I would only add one thing - don't be afraid of making mistakes (I know, easier said than done). It often holds us back from improving. Great video, thank you. I'm looking forward to more from you.

Hi AnneMarie. Thanks for this video. I have a question about present perfect. For example, If I want to talk about an action that still continues in the present, why should I use "I have worked for X years in this company" and not "I have been working for X years" ?
