Do you have a step-by-step Guide or Video for intermediate learning English Grammar and then vocabulary? Please share a link if you do. There are multiple videos and do not know where to start from.
I'm a 35 year old native English speaker and still, I'm thankful for these lessons. It's amazing how much we forget about our native language or that we never really learned.
Man...he did not waste your time. He prepared you gradually so that you can understand one day listening to a detailed lecture from the great person. Never degrade your teacher ever...
English is my second language. Went to University graduated with two degrees. I am not well versed in the structure of the English language. Still learning. This is a great channel to start with the basic. I speak the language daily but i don't know why we say what we say or the structure/grammar & their definitions. This is what i wanted to know, learn the basic English Grammar so Thank you James for your lessons.
I am a native English speaker and I need to learn my own grammar in order to learn the grammar of another language. You broke this down so well and your tone and pace of teaching is perfect! Thank you for offering your knowledge and time👌
This is by far the best video to learn the parts of speech. James teaches at a great pace, and stays on track with clear explanations, unlike many videos on youtube. Thank you!

James, you just changed my world as a online ESL teacher! You break down things perfectly into a way I can understand and explain to my students. I love how you "mind mapped" the tenses in a way makes sense. Grammar is not my strong suit! Thank you bud! SUBSCRIBE! I knew when I scrolled down to the comments that they were going to be positive!
@@humaali4543, do you live outside of an English speaking country? If so, I would recommend that you find a pen-pal who is a native English speaker. In my opinion, immersion can be more effective than grammar. Atleast for basic daily conversation.
I'm impressed by this lesson. I've never been taught like this ever before in our school days. It was really helpful of you. I finally learned this very basic thing of English.
I am getting ready to take the TEAS/Kaplan Exam (for entry into nursing school). I havent studied this material in YEARS and needed a quick refresher - this was perfect and exactly what I needed. THANK YOU!
This video was fantastic. I am 38 and preparing for a TABE test and forgot all of this. Now I have a clearer reunderstanding of it all. Thank you! Your newest follower, Miguel. 👨🏫
I usually don't comment on videos, but you did an awesome job explaining the parts of speech. To be honest, I don't know if I actually learned this when I was younger, or they just never taught me these things... but I understood this video so clearly compared to the past English teachers I've had. Thank You !!!
Im not sure who this video is for. Regardless, I'm an adult who grew up homeschooled. I was exposed to this at a very young age, did not stick with me or was not described well enough and weirdly throughout my adult life I have had to fake understanding these haha. I normally just avoided anything related and got out of it by diverting, or god forbid, sneaking away long enough to look it up on my phone. Sounds made up but I like many have lived with educational gaps like this for years. Dudes like this have been catching me up. Means a lot
I’m studying to be a paraprofessional. Not an easy test when you’ve been out of school for over 20 years. I found your explanations very helpful and I love the fact you added a quiz so that I can see how I’m learning. Keep up the great work!
Hello James, This is the first of your videos that I have watched. I just wanted to let you know, that as someone who grew up with a learning disability in spelling and english and who also was not diagnosed with autism until adulthood, your charismatic style of teaching is a real blessing! Thank you!
This is a masterclass on how to be a great teacher, you are amazing James. After watching a lot of videos, I think yours is the best. Thank you very much for the tutorials!
I wrote essays in undergrad and in grad school with no major issues with grammar but now as an executive, I just want to be sure I am retaining stuff, and so far so good!! I remember the rules!! Awesome teaching!!
Thanks teacher. This is extremely useful, even the most famous grammar books cannot give a structured view about this. I was really struggle when self studying
As an English speaking man in my early 50's coming back to education , I find James's Congruence reassuring, and easy to get. Five gold stars on life-TripAdvisor, or whatever! Thanks again!
I love this video! You are a great teacher and I love your humor! Great video! I needed a grammar review for my upcoming HESI test and this video really helped me. Thank you!
Helped me to undersrtand and refresh basic concepts, the teacher goes step by step...He has different types of videos, and are brilliant. English is easier with order and positivity. No bad comments for it, encourages me to develop. It's amazing!
I started loving the English language after watching your videos. You are outstanding. I get engrossed in watching your videos.. Quite useful. Gotta learn a lot from you. Thanks a lot James. :)
Been away from English lessons for a while, now i watch this, and i feel like, "i gotta get back again to refresh everything related to English within my head" and this kind of thoughts! I'll try to get done with what I'm doing, and get back to refresh everything once again!
Thank You James. With the Children at home l needed a lesson. This refreshed on how be to use my words and how to better explain be it. I am not be a teacher and you explained this Beautifully ❤️. I will be back for more.
Thank you for all that you do. This was an amazing lesson and exactly what I needed. It was clear, concise, relatable, and had humor. Excellent instruction.
HI im from Indonesia... in this few weeks i have a motivation to learn about English from the Basicly thank you mr James i would like to say thank you for your english material 😄🙏
Thanks so much for this video James!! I’m touching up on my English for my test to apply as a mature student for an aesthetician course here in Toronto!
I don't know know English well, but I try to understand what you teach, and I never be taught by an English teacher unless I usually watch English lessons on TH-cam. I appreciate the way you are teaching. God bless you.
Thanks James. Was looking for something exactly like this in order to explain grammar to my primary school aged son. You break what could be a very complex subject into easily understood parts and explain them with clarity and precision.
Hello James! I'm Laura from Brazil. What a great lesson! Could you prepare a video about the usage of the subjunctive? Last time I went to Canada the teachers were a bit confused about how to teach it. Thanks in advance! I'm a big fan of yours. Abraços!
This is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Thank you! Can you possibly do a class on the different types of pronouns? That would be very helpful. Thank you for going through all the effot toimpart knowledge this way. Please, keep it up!
1:47 - I literally thought he grabbed an apple 😂 His way of teaching is amazing What I couldn't learn or understand in school, this guy explained me in 20 mins, thanks!
I have been studying all most 3 years English , but I haven’t achieved my goal yet, instead stuck middle of now where ,most challenge I face was to step out the barriers or obstacles stop me to progress write paragraph the reader can understand and to follow give suspense until reach the finish line but James make me to understand easily the most essential grammar only few minute thank I really appreciate your time
Thank you very much. ❤️ I have a question for you: Should we always follow this order of adjectives? Like If I wanna describe something that's good, small and red, should I start describing its quality then continuing with the others?
Cane Mafija two things for me stand out: 1. Using more words to relay your message. “The most valuable of all talents is that of never using two words when one will do.” -Thomas Jefferson (Side note: I am still working on this myself! At times, I can be long-winded. ) 2. The words chosen can change the tone of what the speaker is really trying to relay. What I mean by this is there could be an ulterior motive for what was said. Having the flexibility of choosing how you want to express yourself can be influenced by your emotions and your intention. In turn, this can very well influence the words you choose to convey your message. For example, I could interpret the first sentence as the speaker conveying a sense of pride. Almost with a tone of “Why of course it’s delicious, I baked it myself!” In the same way, I could read the second sentence as the speaker having no help with baking and feeling bitter, disappointed, or maybe even a little resentful. Almost reading it as: “The cake was too dry? Well, what did you expect? I baked it by myself!” Some may say that, “It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it”, but I believe communication is a combination of both of those things, along with non-verbal communication (deep sighing, eye roll, winking, smirking while speaking, etc.)
Mr. James, I really liked your video, very enjoyable indeed. You seem like a calm person and I appreciate using that to show us what we normally miss daily. Now I'll be watching more of your videos. I'm glad I found your channel. Greetings!
Did h-... Did he just assume James' gender and assume James' pronoun?? -Thank you for the video, it made understanding what verbs, adverbs, adjectives etc. much easier to understand!
I'm glad I found your channel. I'm in the process of learning how speak another language. I need a refresher course in English grammar to understand Brazilian Portuguese. We learn these terms as children and teenagers and many cases forget them 👋🏿👋🏿🇧🇷🇧🇷

Before, after, during, until, whereas
Prepositions:

Is there any difference among these following sentences?

Cane Mafija two things for me stand out:
1. Using more words to relay your message.
“The most valuable of all talents is that of never using two words when one will do.”
-Thomas Jefferson
(Side note: I am still working on this myself! At times, I can be long-winded. )
2. The words chosen can change the tone of what the speaker is really trying to relay. What I mean by this is there could be an ulterior motive for what was said. Having the flexibility of choosing how you want to express yourself can be influenced by your emotions and your intention.
