  • Hello Lucy! I want to say I like your videos on both your channels. I'm also an English teacher and I'm Colombian. You're fun and you feel very genuine which makes me feel like I'm talking with a cool British friend. Also, I can relate to you both on your teaching experiences and personal things like loving country life. Congrats on your wedding and on your new home!

    Great content and Channel! I will definitely share this will my daughters who are currently 8 and 10 years old. We started a book reading channel to improve their English reading and comprehension skills. Plus, I wasn't much of a book reader growing up and now having the opportunity to read with them and share it with the world!
