    Gill, you truly are an international treasure. I can watch and listen to you all day long, as your lessons are so educational, rewarding, interesting and relaxing. I believe that everyone watching, become engrossed and importantly as a result, quickly learn about every aspect of the English language. God bless you Gill, you have a gift that makes a person focus on you and what you are saying, and there’s an immediate effect of learning from it! Unquestionably, the very best English teacher/educator on KZread! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

    Dear Ma'am Gill, Your lesson on idioms was quite nice and interesting ! I like your teaching style as it reminds of the teachers who taught me in my formative years.Some of them were good to me and loved me very much ! Hope,i too will share a nice bond with you as your student now ! The idiom ' cook the book ' sounds so funny and it seems weird if we try to visualize it.The meaning is also not good ' doing something dishonest ' ! Thank you for all your wonderful lessons which you share from time to time !😊
