Why do I always watch your videos when I’m a native English speaker 😂 I actually find them quite relaxing

Your English is calm and peaceful

Hi Lucy! I am an English teacher from Turkey. Your videos worth their weight in gold! Because I am not a native and I take great pleasure in watching them 😁 Lastly, the people around me sometimes drive me up to wall because they just live without a care in the world!!!

Lucy, thanks a lot! 🤗I'm preparing for CAE exam and this video is so beneficial!🤩 I'm looking forward to other videos for advanced learners. You're an amazing teacher! ☺️

I so much enjoy your class, Lusy, for the fact that it's always refreshing and gluing. Keep it up Lucy, you're doing beautifully well when it comes to churning out with amazing phrases.

Speaking English with Lucy is the best, am always watching out for your videos.

Thank you very much! I'm so excited to start practicing even more with your pdfs! Love your videos!🌼💖

Thanks Lucy for this fabulous and ineffable lesson. So chuffed that I have learnt smth mesmerizing on YouTube. Last time I was lacking the impetus to study 📖 😪 , however right now feeling myself significantly fulfilled. Genuinely without care in this world 🌎. I reckon that English is worth its weight in gold in my life , therefore due to you ♥ I became more sanguine in English. Thanks a bunch.

my english has been improving so much ever since i found your channel. thank you so much, love your videos! 💜

That's exactly what I was really looking forward! Thanks so much, dear Teacher!

Thank you for the subtitles Miss Lucy, that helped me to understand absolutly everything

What an honor to be one of your students.

11:50 I loved "walking on eggshells"!! in Turkish, we similarly say "diken üstünde yürümek" which means "walking on thorns" or, "mayın tarlasında yürümek" which is "to walk on a minefield" same meaning! there's also "ip üstünde yürümek" which means "to walk on a string" but it means more like you're in danger 😅

Love this one ! Need more of your advanced English lessons!

You're an exciting creature, Lucy. You were the reason of my today's 15 mins and 6 secs smile. Fabulous!

I'm always learning from these videos. As an American English speaker, I've never heard the expression "short and sharp." Here, we'd say "short and sweet." As in: I know everyone is busy, so I'll keep this short and sweet. There's another sense for the phrase "down to." If someone is "down to" or "down for" it means they want something. "I've worked hard all week and now I'm down to party." "I skipped breakfast so now I'm really down for some lunch." I agree with your pronunciation of "integral." I use "in-teg-ral" to refer to a vital part of something and "in-te-gral" for the math function. Thanks for the outtakes, by the way!
