    "I love your voice and how you speak.
    Today my english becomes less weak.
    I can listen and I can talk.
    Your words are gentle like a hawk
    flying under clouds above the sea.
    People who were blind now start to see.
    Oh it's clear so I can learn.
    You did your job, now it's my turn."
    I am from Hungary and I write poems. Usually hungarian poems so please, forgive me if it was not perfect :) I like the way you teach and from now on you are one of my favorite teachers on youtube.

      Oh!, - P.S. - I think I 'loved everything immediately' because I suddenly felt... I'm not sure I could describe this correctly... - well, - I've suddenly felt, that the logic and the structure of the lessons, You're presenting on the channel, - they are much familiar to the way I was taught the language at school (it was 30 years ago) - and I'm absolutely sure, that it was, and it definitely IS, the best methodic - I love it 💗 - Thank You! 😊🙏

    Emily Dickinson 1830 -1886 is one of the greatest American poets. Though her poems seem controversial, and many critics have gone puzzled about her philosophy on what artistical messages she aimed to convey to her poetry readers. For me I have come across a number of her poems. Truly speaking I 'm impressed by her poetry and in particular the type of language she uses; though difficult but it bears a great texture of debatable artistical and poetical images on, for example, the matter of life and death, the wordly life and the hereafter. As far as I know Emily prefered to lead a solitary life when she was shocked by missing some reltives of her who died earlier; neices or nephews, I am not sure excatly whom she lost. So most of her poems speak of the issue of death and life and how do we pass from a reality we sense to another reality we know, but not yet experienced and how it looks like.
    I am so glad Mrs. Gill you 've introduced one poem of this great poet ..thank you so much. I hope you will introduce other poems.

    Thank you Ms. Gill for your excellent explanation. Your elaboration really helps my son (who is now in grade / year 7 of Cambridge Lower secondary, taking English as First Language (EFL).Your elaboration gave me and my son and insight how to decipher the true meaning of a sentence. Since English is not our mother tongue, your video really help us a lot in improving ways and means to tackle EFL. Will sure look into your others video as well. Thank you very much Ms. Gill.

    Hi Gill I really enjoy to see how you explain Emily's poem. It is full of surrounding images of landscape, human actions, birds, it makes you feel so gentle and peaceful.
    The way she concludes is beautiful with a shepherd puts down the gate to the flocks. Shepherd could be a church minister and flocks are people. This is a first time i hear some one
    explain the English poem to me and i really appreciate it. Thanks Gill. Love it ! More please :)

    THE TREE by William Blake (23/8/1799)
    The tree that moves some to tears of joy
    Is in the eyes of the others
    Only a green thing that stand in the way .
    Some see nature all ridicule, deformity
    By these I shall not regulate my proportions; Some scarce see nature at all.
    But to the eyes of the man of imagination
    Nature is imagination it self.
    As a man is. So he sees .
    As the eye formed , such are its powers.
    William Blake ( London 28/11/1757 )
    Was an English poet, painter,print marker and mystical.
    He was a very good example of how we can perceive and express our idiosyncratic way of understanding and feeling reality.
