I had been watching another video explanning how to use the past perfect, but with this one i started to understand clearly

Thank you all the Teachers so much about the good lesson!

This is perfect and crystal clear. Thank you!

It is a real privilege to have these materials from both of you. Even though it can be challenging to learn and understand English grammar, you produce a huge increase in our skills by delivering an outstanding way of teaching. Thank you so much!!!

This video is really helpful to understand Past perfect tense , I really appreciate💯🤗 and I think you should make more videos on tense.

Oh i also started teaching in 2005😊

That’s exactly right. I learned the perfect tenses in high school and college but I have never really used them confidently. I struggled and oftentimes didn’t use it at all since I was afraid I would be making mistakes. Luckily, I came across this channel. My sentences will still be riddled with mistakes but I know for sure with practice and with your help, I’ll be fine.

Hi, Teacher. I watched your lesson and I liked. Let me talk about what happened to me before I came to London. I had learnt English before I came to London. Luckily I found good teachers in the college which helped me enormously with grammar. Later I remembered that I had had some English lesson when was eleven years old. Thank you Teacher for an amazing lesson. I always learn from you.

This video is very helpful. All the points are explained in a very clear way.

Thank you oxford online english ! I'm from 🇱🇰 sri lanka

Thank you for this brilliant lesson. Finaly I know the differences between those 2 tenses and when and also why I can use them. An excellent and clear explanation!

I'm not exaggerating, but this video is incredible. I've just ordered a book for advanced grammar. I read this topic in the book more than once, but it wasn't clear at all. Although, this book is supposed to be the best world selling! I just understood it perfectly when I listened to this video. The best way of explaining ever. Thank you so much. From now on, I will refer to Oxford Online English every time. You are fantastic. It is perfect, so professional.

oli sir and kaisa mem's teaching is wonderful.thank you so much

My goodness, this is one of the top 5 best English-grammar-learning videos on KZread. Thanks a lot, Kasia and Oli. Er, by the way, am I right in thinking that Kasia uses General American English whereas Oli uses British English with a regional dialect? I find both your accents particularly appealing.

Thank you for the video. In one grammar book, I found an exception of the rule, which states that it is possible to use either Past Simple or Past perfect with conjunctions (after, before, as soon as, then). However, with before+past perfect, the action in the past simple happens first: I left university before I'd taken the final exams. So, what action happened first? Why do they use it? What was the intention? or it also can be used for a past action which prevented a later action from happening: She sacked him before he'd had a chance to explain his behavior. This is really mind-blowing! This breaks all the rules.

Hi Ilnara, thanks for asking your question. If you think about the timeline, it still follows the rules. In 'I left university before I'd taken the final exams', the opportunity to take the exams was present before leaving university. That is why we use the past perfect to represent the opportunity to take them before you left. In 'She sacked him before he'd had a chance to explain his behavior', the chance to explain was present before she sacked him, but he did not take that opportunity. Therefore, we could also say: 'He hadn't had a chance to explain his behavior before she sacked him' which is the same meaning. It's important to think about the timeline of opportunity when something didn't happen. Does that make sense?

Thank you so much for the information, I'm a perivuan student and you help me a lot with your video.

Always the best oli, thanks OOE for the free lessons.

Thank you so much for the class !! Past Perfect Different periods: before and after ☕🔬 I had already had breakfast before I started studying. 🙆💅 Good! Before I painted my nail, I had already washed my hair. 🎁🎄 When Christmas came, I had bought gifts for my family. When not to use? When it's obvious. Obviously I passed the test before driving 🚘Were you driving? Yes, I passed all the tests first!

thank you soo much

Great video! Having watched several videos on KZread where the Past Perfect is not taught well, because they don't make clear when to use it, it is really refreshing to find one where it *_is_* taught properly. And in an interesting and engaging way because it is taught through living, everyday situations!

Love the examples

Excellent

Hi!! It's a blessing to have found this channel! Love support sent to you ! Besides, I would like to know if we can use the past perfect and the past perfect Continuous without mentioning another action in the past ? For example : "It had been raining all day" Does that sentence above work ? Or do we always have to mention 2 actions in the past ? Does there have to be 2 actions in the past ? .................................................... And if i say : "it had been raining all day when i played the game" What does that sentence above mean ? As i know the past Continuous for a continous action, Another question : Was it still raining when i played the game based on the sentence I've given above ? I appreciate your effort ! Thanks for answering ! 🙏🙏🙏
