I'm not entirely sure I really love this procedure but I gotta do that periodically. I'd say it happens once in a while. Thanks for the splendid lesson!
@TT-vb3yk because 1. in person you see the face expression and this helps a lot in conversation 2 because people can be more often rude by phone than in person 3 because secretary can more easy ignore you by phone as in person
when every Friday comes i thought about you , you don't lose what you teach us , you are always looking up opportunity for teaching thank you so much our dear teacher and i love you from Ethiopia.
Teacher whenever i'm done watching your videos I feel smarter and more confident... thank God there's people like you out there to help us pimp our English. You're doing a great job. Thank you.
Eh, as a native English speaker “there’s” works just fine there. I didn’t bat an eye there. True, “there are” is more grammatically correct, but the amount of natives who speak grammatically correct all the time is pretty low. You’re good bro.
Geez! This only thing used to be confusing for me cauz i heard, even on tv shows there's used with a plural noun...Now ,i get it, thanks a thousand times bro.
@@blacksunangel636 No problem. What's more important than being grammatically correct is to have what you're saying be understood and that you understand what they're saying. If you go to any English speaking country, especially the UK, the US, and Australia/New Zealand, you'll notice we're very loose with the rules of grammar in the vein of stuff like your "there's" example. We do that sort of thing quite often. And frankly, you probably understand that rule better than most English speakers lol.
Hello, Iam from India, Basically Iam from small village, now I am living in Bangalore city, I haven't studied in English as a first language, I learnt English and now I understand all native speakers English also,. Now Iam regularly watching your videos. Your pronunciation is so clear. Thank you so much
Ouf !!! Finally I found a way to release my stress when I have to make an appointment over the phone or request any other service from stores, companies and so on. I usually feel frightened every time I need to use my phone for professional conversations. Now I get some tools for improving my skills so I can get always ready facing this kinda challenge. Thank you pretty much Teach Vanessa ! You’re definitely a life savior.
Every time I watch your videos, I get a good mood! Because you're so clear and realistic that I feel so proud of myself to understand almost everything and also keeping learning more.
I think it is the best lessons in your all lessons. It doesn't mean your other lessons are not so good but I like that lesson very much so thank you very much for this lesson
Great lesson ,today I have learnt some new words and expressions ,thank you Vanessa . I have been started to watch your videos from one month ,i got so much confidence while speaking English
I hate to schedule appointments on the phone, many times the secretaries aren't too polite like this one! PS.: You're really a great teacher, I didn’t realize it’s been 35 min... You make the learning process light and pleasant. :)
This class is so helpful. Before watching this, I am the typical guy who only know to say” the price of the car is blah blah blah blah”. Now I will use “u r looking at …”to make the sentence. Thank you Vanessa😻👏
This was a very good and helpful lesson and when you mention that you get nervous while making appointment it was a healing to know that I am not the only one who gets that feeling and thanks for sharing that.
Vanessa, dear, thank you so much for your great work you’re doing for people. I like your lessons very much, they’re so useful to me. I’ve recently came to the USA from Ukraine…and especially now I find your videos so-so useful. Thanks a lot again.
I also feel a little bit nervous when i have to make an appointment I'm living in the netherlands and want to learn english and your channel is the perfect channel to learn english. Thank you for today
Wow I got a lot of idea Ma'am Vanessa .very helpful ..one of a kind verb and phrases..thanks a lot it help me in and needed situation like that ..thanks to you .keep it up , your my favorite teacher language teacher .
I like booking an appointment over the phone. It is more practical and more useful than usual. To add, watching this video I can tell that this secretary is really kind and detailed. Good job!
Thank you so much Vanessa for an important video that is commonly needed. Because we have to make such appointments on phone that is the easy way to save time and money.
I've been watching your videos since you had just 55.000 subscribers. You and Dan have contributed significantly to my journey towards fluency. Thanks and keep up the good work!
We just directly walking to hospital when needed. No custom of taking appointments while consulting doctor. But here it was quite nice to watch and to learn...
Hi Vanessa! I am Sofi from Slovakia and I´ve watched almost all your videos. You are the best English teacher ever - thank you so much for teaching me! Wish you all the best! bye! P.S.: I´m only 13 years old but because of watching your videos my English is much better than my classmates´ english.
Hi Vanessa, I hope you are doing well! Thank you so much for filming such a realistic experience, as It really helps to learn and absorb new expressions.
If I'm sure Vanessa is talking to me on the other end of the line, not only will I not be stressed, I'll enjoy talking to my most lovable teacher on earth.
Best lesson !!! It s literally not posible to learn this things from text books but also from listening to podcast and reading books. Thank you you are the best!!!
Thanks a lot for this great lesson. Making appointments with doctors is always a bit intimidating, also in my mother tongue. And without insurance, it is pretty expensive too.
Having a conversation over the phone it's most terrifying thing on the way of speaking English. The Secretary was speaking is way more fast as i've expected, practice and only practice maybe give me that level of confidence reduce my fear on phone calling. Thanks a lot for this lesson Vanessa ❤️❤️❤️
Yesterday I booked appointment, June,26 at 12:35. Vanessa, l'm liking to comment in the end the vídeos.I need to pract it and improve my English.Thanks
I love the real situation lesson. It makes me know that real US speaking is still hard for me. Anyway in Thailand, we seldom make appointment for doctor. If it is only small disease like fever or cold. We can go directly to drugstore and pharmacist can choose medicine for us without any prescription. And if you just exam your eye for buying eyeglasses or contact lenses. You don't need to see the eye doctor. You just go to the eyeglasses shop, exam your eye and choose eye frame. Eye doctor for us is like when you really have problem or disease with your eyes.
The greatest thing about you is that you put us in real situations of life, I really enjoyed it thank you Vanessa, and also to do not forget, congratulations about 3 millions of subscribers 🎉🎉❤️❤️❤️
This is a great lesson! Making an appointment is one of the hardest things to do in a foreign language and so essential if you live in a country where your first language isn't spoken.
Thank you soooo much Vanessa. I was debating with myself although I needed a check wit my doctor.. this gave me confidence. Am going to call my eye doctor office and also my general doctor's office today ❤❤❤❤today
Thank you for this amazing video. I learned a lot from it. Well, for me, I 'm not used to get nervous whike booking fir something on phone in French or in Arabic, but it' s not the case in English. It's a bit of challenge, but after this video, I got the feet on the door to do it more and more frequently and comfortably as well. Thank you again!
Fantastic lesson. Thank you for showing the real expressions that you use at everyday times. This is very important for advanced students. A hug 🤗 from Chile.
Excellent episode! In the beginning, it was an uphill battle to catch the secretary up, after your explanation, it was quite easy to understand her. Thanks, Vanessa for your very worthwhile class and of course your special talent to teach us. Have a great weekend!
Thank you so much for this useful video. I always got nervous when I talked with someone on the phone. Most of he native speakers talk very fast, so it’s very hard to understand what they said. Thanks for your detailed explanation.
It's no a problem, Be consistent in your studies, now I can watch Vanessa's videos at 1.5 x speed. I hope to you sucessefull in your life and that your dreams can be true.
@@idrawtoohehe Bhavya , Doctors office is an office with 1 doctor and 1 or 2 staff where as clinic is a large with several doctors. We say clinic for everything here. I went to the doctor office last week for a check up.
What a great idea to record a real conversation booking an appointment at the doctor's. I wish I had seen it before I lived in the States. Also, I wish doctors' secretaries were so empathetic and patient in Spain. Thanks for sharing.
Great video again. You seem to know how to make me understand a still learn something. I don't like to schedule an appointment over the phone in any language, especially if the other person is impatient. I tend to speak slow and I used to stutter a lot.
Can you make a Receptionist, front desk Representative at hospital as well. And talking to doctor and so on. Like talking to the lab or talking about things use like you have to use the medicine every other day. You should use the medicine every second day. And these sentences.
Hi Vanessa, your video on scheduling appointments in English is incredibly helpful! I have a quick question: Could you explain the difference between ‘I have not’ and ‘I haven’t been seen by you before’ when responding to the secretary’s question at [00:03:44]? I’m curious about the nuances in formality and context. Thanks for making English learning so accessible!
Thank you so much for your teaching. In my country, it seems much easier to book an appointment with a doctor in a clinic or in a hospital and much cheaper to have an eye exam.. It costs around 8-10 dollars to have an eye test, eye drops prescriptions.. So lucky living in Taiwan!
Thanks Vanessa! This was a great lesson. I honestly haven't booked an appointment😂 I'm under age so I can't book any appointments or anything like this. My dad or brother always do such stuff. But I will one day😄
Great lesson :) Most of the time, I'm totally ok with making an appointment over the phone in my native language. Sometimes I start to feel nervous when the person on the phone is being not friendly.
Alrighty teacher🙂!That was a huge, huge lesson for many reasons!I really enjoyed the way the conversation flew between you two, it was clear, fast and immenseley helpful!I wouldn't mind at all, if you make part 2 of booking a doctor's appointment!Maybe next time Dan could call her so that you can record it again?!Take care!
I used to feel nervous when I had to book appointmens on the phone, but I've overcome it completely (at least in my native language German). The secretary used the phrase "Gotcha". What does it mean? Is this a polite way to say I got it? Thank you so much. Your English lessons are amazing. 👍😊👏
Teacher Vanessa, this is video , is completely perfect. I hate appointments over the phone at my language Portuguese. I love your lesson, you are the best Thank you so much for sharing everything always ♥️♥️♥️
Thanks so much, Vanessa! This lesson was very helpful. To tell the truth, I' ve misheard half of the secretary's speech without the subtitles. As for me, I don't feel any stress booking an appointment. The only thing I need for this call is a calendar where I highlight convenient days for the visit
Thanks Vanessa, normally at China, we typically make appointment to hospital is necessary at nowdays, but not by phone, every hospital have individual app at cell phone, we can searching for the doctors which u prefer, and make reservation, as well pay on line the consulting cost, normally at 25 cny for high level experienced, and or 5 cny for common doctors. For meal reservation, common practrice is drop a call directly and make a estimated timeframe normally accurate to half hours, and no.s of persons to be there, that's it, haha, ur video came my top 1 lesson resource now, thanks!
Hi. I'm from Mexico and I've been watching your videos and they have helped me a lot.. currently I'm living here in north Carolina same as you do... my husband is American and after 7 years of iving here I'm picking up a better English... because it is not the same I used to learnt down there in Mexico..... one of the things I am afraid the most to do is booking an appointment no matter if it is in Spanish, but worse in English, because generally the secretaries speak SUPER fast.... and with those tricky words like you just showed in your video, that make it impossible for me to understand.. Same for ordering food.... some people talks really fast and I always try to figure out what they are saying.... but this video cleared me some of those words and hopefully I would be more confident to make an appointment from now on... thank you vanessa.. my name is Ana by the way.. see you
The secretary speech on the phone ıs really hard to underatand.She spoke quıcklıye.Even thought your explanatıon ıs helpfull me 🥰I apprıcıate you my teacher and addıct your whole records and postcards❤️👍

Yes, i like to book appointments on the phone, but sometimes i have nervous whith it. With best regards from Ukraine.
Many people don't like making phone calls for appointments. Even native speakers. Great lesson.
I want to do friendship with you and I like you honey
Then this is definitely not a service. As service supposed to mean “being content & happy”.
I am not understanding why not liking to make phone calls for appointments.
@TT-vb3yk because
1. in person you see the face expression and this helps a lot in conversation
2 because people can be more often rude by phone than in person
3 because secretary can more easy ignore you by phone as in person

In my first language is normal, but in English never made any appointment, but a day I think I go take.
Awesome lesson I think this lady who was the receptionist so informal ,thanks
