Great video! I am fluent in two languages English and Russian, so I consider myself a native speaker of two languages because I speak Russian and English every day. To be honest, my brain constantly thinks in English and I know idioms, proverbs and slang. However, I speak American English and I prefer the American accent because it is one of the best. I work as an English teacher, but I only have one student and he said that thanks to me, he already learned more words in English easily and his mom is very grateful, and said that I am the best teacher for her son. I am glad to hear that. I’ve never had a professional teaching experience, but I always say: Always live, always learn. ( Век живи, век учись.) -It’s a Russian proverb. Equivalent English proverb live and learn. Being an English teacher is a demanding job and many people learn English because this is an International language and it makes this life easier for others when they know and speak the language. When I’ll have other students, I can teach them English or Russian. ☺️✍🏻😇

Excellent vocabulary lesson. You should do the whole dictionary; with the way you teach and your pronunciation, you would be helping a lot of people. Thank you.

A great teacher and the way of your teaching is outstanding. I will be linger and lure wit your each and every lecture because it helps me to pinpoint my weaknesses in English. After watching your lecture to watching others' teachers lecture makes me loathe.

I have a lingering effect on my English from this channel! I indulge in watching more than one video a day. Sometimes it can be tough to carve out some time and actually watch them, but I delegate a lot of tasks to make my life easier. I burn the midnight light because of my exams and you help me a lot by doling out progressive vocabulary. I will try to go easy on myself in order not to be prescribed any heavy medicine by doctors. I am plagued by the amount of disinformation while surfing the Internet. I would love to pinpoint what piece of information is worth my attention. I loath uncontrolled situations so I am keen to curb at least something!

I love your videos. <3 Although I am a proud holder of C2 Proficiency and an English teacher at primary school, I do learn a lot thanks to you. There is always something to learn in a foreign language, even the one you have a good command of. The key to perfection is constant learning and not letting yourself rest on your laurels. :)
