This video is pure gold. I have been studying English for nearly 40 years, and no teachers explained to me how to use to or for properly to make sentences using them correctly... I had to learn it on my own by listening to the people when I kept conversations... Thanks a lot!
-
Thank you so much for explaining these propositions("to" and "for")in detail and in a professional manner! As always, outstanding teacher !👏
-
Thank you very much Emma. All the time I have to check your videos to make sure I am taking the right directions to improve my English. Cheers.
-
I primarily used to suffer the correct using of articles. After huge effort and practices, I have made significant improvement now. Prepositions are also made me unprofessional on my academic work. And your videos can help me to avoid those confusions. Your presentation is clean and pretty much on target. Keep up the good work as we are benefiting a lot.
-
Thank you for making this lesson, emma and finally i can understand how to use TO and FOR.
-
Thank you so much for helping us to improve each day, I really love your classes. I'm an Englih teacher from Brazil, and it's not easy to learn when we're not in contact with the language everyday.
-
😫😫 I need to watch this video a thousand times to learn everything properly. "La práctica hace al maestro". 🤣🤣 Me encantó está perfecto!! Gracias 💖💖🤣
-
Congratulations for your channel! I'm an English teacher in Brazil and I'm amazed by the way you conduct your explanations regarding the content you're presenting <3 I simply loved it! I will totally share the link of your channel with my students and have them ALL subscribe to it!!!
-
To: 1. destination 2. time between two points 3. preference 4. limit/endpoint. This is such a magnificent lesson.
-
Thanks Emma. The video is very useful for the simple reason that I find it very challenging to discuss prepositions with my students. I find it hard to figure out where I should start and what things i should cover. Could you give an example for "apply to someone"?
-
I want to thank you for this lesson to give a better understanding of these common prepositions.... And as I understood this all is very easy and cool to use in our daily communication 👍
-
I wanna say that you'ar an amazing english teacher.I'd love to see more of your videos.😊
-
I traveledd from Guadajajara to Cancun for work, I've been living here for 8 years and after studied english for 5 years I finaly speak and understand!!! Of course not perfect, but doesn't matter, I am going to continue learning. Thank you a lot! You are very good teacher.
-
Hi! I like very much your classes, I already saw some clases and I have the intention of seeing the rest of them. I think you are a very easy teacher to understand and comprehend, thanks again for your time and dedication.

Hello Emma, my name is Wang. I have watched your teaching YouTube. I found your teaching very clear, concise and helpful. I love it. Thank you.
-
This is an excellent lesson. Teaching and learning prepositions is not easy. To feel the difference of the use of FOR and TO it is necessary to think in English. Your reasoning on those two little words is a perfect presentation. Thank you Professor Emma. You say " I am a coach for English speech". But I prefer to title you Professor Emma.
-
Usage of To: 1.) Direction/Destination 2.) Time/Time between two points 3.) Preference 4.) Limit/Endpoint ♥️
