    Thank you Gina for this concise and well led lesson. As an ESL/EFL teacher, I prefer to teach it first, as paragraph writing lesson and after I can ask my leaners to describe individually other towns, villages... they are familiar with. Of course it will take time to get all the students perform . Anyway that's honestly a good subject!

    I come from Ben Tre, known as a land of the Coconut. It’s located in the area of Southern Vietnam. Ben Tre is famous for coconut candies, coconut handicraft products as well as tropical fruit orchards. I’ve lived there for about 18 years since I started unversity. Ben Tre is a sleepy place with the fresh air and the green space to relax. It’s small enough that you can get to know your neighbours and have a sense of community. Moreover, the cost of living is quite low, to be honest. I think that’s why I love living in Ben Tre. But sometimes I find it a bit boring because there’s not much nightlife. Ben Tre hasn’t changed much in the last ten years, although there are certainly more and more tourists these days.

    I live in a Patiala it’s a huge city though it’s not the capital city but it’s one of the famous city of Punjab. The city is called as kingdom of king Bhupinder Singh and city is famous for production of fulkari. However it’s a very bustling city. It’s got a very beautiful and happening culture. It’s a city with lots of energy. Only problem we face that winter can be a seriously cold. The city is almost unrecognisable in last many years. It’s expanded so much physically and economically.

    As I’ve been living here in Venice for many years, I consider it as my hometown. It is a floating city situated in the north of Italy and known for its extraordinary arts and architecture, as well as the quaint maze canals linked by bridges. This romantic city is a Unesco world heritage sites that comprises its lagoon, its islands and the S-shaped Grand Canal overlooked by elegand palaces. Famous attractions are the largest square, St. Mark’s square, the Doge’s Palace and other historic buildings. Living in Venice really suits me. It feels like I’m living in an ancient time with its facinating churches and art galleries. It’s got such a rich culture and has a sense of history. This is the only city on Earth where tourists can use a boat instead of car where they can take a picture while admiring the breathtaking view. As a touristic city, the cost of living is high. That can be quite stressful because you’re always thinking about money and how to make ends meet. Humid can be an issue in particularly in the summer and cabln be exhausting to live. You can get to meet other people from different countries but it’s a bit tough to find real friends because tourists just come and leave. Venice has changed a lot in the past few years. It’s much less tourists than it used to be due to the outbreak of Covid-19. Most of the establishments are close in this period as well as restaurants and big hotels. However, the floating city is still there. It will soon back to normal.

It has a great blend of cultural and traditions.My favourite places are the beaches which gives you a chance to enjoy the nature. My hometown always welcome the people all round from the county by giving opportunities and sustainable livelihood, however due to this reason my city is overcrowded and traffic is sometimes horrible. This place has changed a quite lot compared last 15 years both in physically and economically.

    Thank you so much for such a helpful lesson! I live in Hangzhou, which is on the south east coast of China. It's a huge and bustling city. It's famous for its landmarks such as West lake and Linying Temple. It's also well known for its green tea, what we call dragon well tea, and food, of course. I was born and brought up here so I have lived here all my life. I think it's a great to place to live because it's a real 24 hour city with lots of energies, and there is so much to do. On top of that, it has many beautiful places with natural scenery, so you can easily find somewhere to escape the hustle and bustle and relax. The only downside is that the traffic is extremely busy especially during the rush hours. Air quality can also be an issue particularly in winters. Hangzhou has changed quite a lot as a place in the last 20 years or so. It has expanded tremendously both physically and economically. It is an emerging tech hub and home to the e-commerce giant Alibaba. More and more people are moving here to live and work. Inevitably, the population and cost of living have gone up quite a lot.

    Nice answer about your city. Here are some things to think about: 1) Use the adjective 'neighboring' here, 'The city is close to two neighboring countries...'. 2) The 'cost of living' not 'living cost'. 3) '...is not very expensive', not, 'much'.

    Hi! I'm learning English with you since a lot of month now. I really like your videos.Your lessons are very interesting, thank you! Below my exercice : Folligny is a small village in Normandy. It’s a quiet place in the countryside and it’s near the Mont-Saint Michel, so the surrounding area is quite beautiful and you can easely drive to beaches to relax. I realy like living in Folligny because it’s a quiet place. It’s small enough that my children can bike or walk safety to the playground. But there is no school in the village, it can be a issue for no car families. Folligny has changed a lot since the 2WW. The train station was a strategic place and it was bombed and destroyed three times during the war. The population is aging and many young people are moving here to live but they work and do shopping in the larger cities nearby, so there is no grocery in the village. If you live in Folligny you need a car like many villages in France.

    Hi Woody, thanks for sharing your answer. Here are some corrections for you: 1) 'easily,' not, 'easely'. 2) '...bike or walk safely,' not, 'safety'. 3) '...since WWII,'' or, 'World War Two' or, 'the second world war', not, '2WW'. Hope this is useful for you!

    I live in Alexandria,it is a city on the Mediterranean sea coast.Alexandria is considered the second capital of Egypt and one of the biggest ports in it.It was founded by a Greek emperor called Alexander the great before Christ. Alexandria has a wonderful weather and beautiful natural scenes due to its location. A lot of people come from all around the world to enjoy its weather and watch its landmarks.Besides its economical importance,it has a cultural one. Bibliotheca Alexandria is one of the most popular landmarks in Alexandria,it contain different books from different countries in many languages.In fifties Alexandria was a model example for cosmopolitan city, Greeks,Italians ,British and even Syrian people lived in it.Alexandrian people are really humble ,warm and life loving .Many Egyptian artists arose in Alexandria for that reason they prefer holding cultural and artistic events in it in addition to movie shooting.Alexandria is wonderful , I hope that people will visit it and they will never regret this decision.

    Nice answer! I like the details and your vocabulary is good. Here are three language points for you: 1. 'Alexandria has wonderful weather...' not '...a wonderful weather.' 2. 'A lot of people come...to see its landmarks,' not '...watch its landmarks.' 3. '...economic importance' not '...economical importance.' Hope this helps!

    I live in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This amazing city is between the mountains and sea. I like this city because it has a beautiful blue sky, warm climate and we can see the nature almost every neighborhood. There are many landscapes and the most incredible are Christ the Redeemer, Botanical Garden and the beaches like Barra, Copacabana and Ipanema, however I could make a list with other landmarks include the Tijuca Forest (Tijuca National Park) and their waterfalls. Rio de Janeiro changes a lot last twenty years and this wasn’t good, in my opinion, because it grew up disorganized. Today it is crowded and the public transport don’t operate perfectly. Rio de Janeiro is an incredible city to visit but doesn’t live.

    Thanks for sharing, Marcia. Here are some corrections for you: 1) Nature is an abstract noun. Therefore, you should say: '...see nature in almost every neighborhood,' not, '...see the nature almost every neighborhood'. 2) '...with other landmarks including...' not, 'include'. 3) 'Rio de Janeiro has changed a lot in the last twenty years...' not, 'Rio de Janeiro changes a lot last twenty years...'. Hope this helps you!

    I live in Hanoi,the capital city of Vietnam.I've been living there for 3 years,since I entered my university.It's a bustling place and the second largest city in my country. People from different areas come there with their hope to have better life.Hanoi's famous for its landmarks such as the Hoan Kien lake,old quarter,temple of literature,Ho Chi Minh mausoleum,...as well as special delicious foods. I quite like living in Hanoi,because it's got a rich traditional culture for thousands years in records of buillding and holding country process against invaders.There 's always something interesting going on,but it's crowded with lots of people and the transportation is so much heavy that it always gets me in traffic jams.Moreover,the cost of living there is really high, that stressed me a lot.Hanoi has changed a lot in the last 20 years. It's not much more ancient beautiful place as it used to be;it's more and more modern and developing.However,the soul and the traditional values of the city are still remain unchangeable.

It's such a cultural place; it has changed a lot in the last twenty years , now there are more tourist places to visit such as restaurants and hotels. I love living on this island because there's always a good place to go. In August, the island is crowed specially at the beaches (wich are stunning). Is a really nice place to go if you want to be in a quiet area or go to the beach frequently.

The city has grown drastically due to its commercial value. People come to work here from all over the country. I like to live here because there’s always something going on.

    I was born and grew up in Can Tho, one of the fifth city under the Central authorities. Can Tho is located in the Southwest of Vietnam. Although Can Tho is not as big and crowded as other cities in Vietnam, but it is the most beautiful and meaningful in my mind. Can Tho attracts tourist around the world by its beautiful river, fruitful orchards and the friendliness and hospitality of the people in this city. It is famous for Cai Rang floating market, rice paper making village, Ninh Kieu Wharf, Can Tho Bridge-the longest cable stayed bridge in South East Asia and many many beautiful places. The advantages of living in Can Tho are the range of things to do, such as cultural and social activities, and the beautiful parks and river. However I need to go somewhere to build my career because there are a few career opportunities here, that’s why I am working in Ho Chi Minh city now. Can Tho changed quite a lot in the last 20 years, more and more factories grown up. I think it is developing in a good way. Can Tho has always had an important place in me. No matter where I go, I always still remember it.

    I live in Alexandria, it is the first capital of Egypt and the second biggest city in it, it is an amazing city by the Mediterranean Sea which famous with a lot of landmarks from different times like Qaitibay castle, jewels museum, and a lot of ancient mosques and these different landmarks give it an exciting mixture of different cultures. Also it has the most famous library in the world Alexandria library. People come to it from all the world to visit its ancient places. It is a really fantastic bustling city which full of energy, movement and fun 24 hours per day. I've been living in it for 15 years. I really excited the sea and used to go to the beach once a week since I was young but unfortunately now I can't go as I'm busy all the time in my work. The only disadvantage of Alexandria is the crowded roads especially in the summer when people out to the beaches, the traffic become very stressful so the quality of air can be an issue . Alexandria has been changed a lot in the last 20 years, it became completely different, many natural places have been replaced by buildings, concrete expanded everywhere surround us , I'm really sad by what it looks nowadays and desire all the time if it back to its interesting old look which I used to see in my photos.
