hello Sir. I have gone through all your lessons but could you kindly guide on how do we approach a sentence correction section or find an error in a sentence. how do we identify all 8 parts of speech in a sentence? how do we read a sentence and find an error? kindly guide.
Dear Mr. Genesh. I’m Korean. For a long time, I have been struggling because of my son's grammar. Nowadays I am solving the difficulties through your lectures. You are such an excellent teacher. Thank you so much.
This is the very first time, i have seen orders of adjectives like this. I have read a lot of books but i never found such kind of things. Very very useful video 👍👍 thank you
Where were uu sir, I was searching for a good english teacher and my search finally ends here. Plzz make a video on active and passive a complete new lecture combinint everything sir.
I do need to take enough cues from this lesson. I am substantially elated because of your palpable vocation to present us and all that. I am truly grateful
Thank You Ganesh, Especially for making it easy to UNDERSTAND for an OLD JOCK like myself. I was a terrible student because I thought more about Sports than school. It was sad for my Mother because she was a Special Needs Teacher in Elementary School. She made the Decision to have me repeat the Fourth grade mostly because my English studies were so poor. I played for the Oakland Raiders from 1978 to 1982 then returned to Wichita State University to finish my degree in General Studies. I have always wanted to Write A Book, My Sister was an amazing Writer and she always gave me the INSPIRATION to write. She read much of my writing and was very Enthused and Complimentary about it. But I know NOTHING about how to go about doing it. ANY SUGGESTIONS. Thank You John Parker
Hello John, Thank you for the comment. Very interesting to hear of your experiences! It's wonderful that you are thinking of writing a book. Now, being an ESL teacher, I cannot pretend to be an expert on the subject of writing books. But, I would strongly recommend that you start by reading an introductory guide; for example, _Writing Fiction for Dummies_ might be a good starting point if you're planning to write fiction. There are plenty of resources for writers available on the internet today. If you do a Google (or even TH-cam) search for 'how to write a book', you will find lots of them. You might also find it helpful to join writing groups, either online or in your local area. Networking with fellow aspiring writers is a great way to stay informed and motivated. One thing I would like to suggest is to just write! Many writers have a minimum word count that they force themselves to write every day as a way of getting over writer's block. I've heard that Stephen King recommends new writers to shoot for at least 1,000 words per day. Basically, the idea is that you just put pen to paper and write whatever comes to mind without critiquing any of it. I have a lesson on the process of writing that you might glean some ideas from: th-cam.com/video/dT_D68RJ5T8/w-d-xo.html Best wishes, Ganesh
Much respect to you, sir. I watch your classes , make notes, and rewatch the classes again and again to polish my grammar teaching skills. The way you simplify every lesson has inspired me and helped me to teach my students with precision. I hope you can post more English grammar lessons if possible. It’s a humble request. Thank you for your hardwork, sir.
I have been watching your grammar lessons for quite a long time. It has been very useful for my personal growth as well as for teaching students. I still haven't given up my learning habits. I always had difficulty in arranging string of adjectives to describe a noun know matter how hard I try. But after this video, I think I will have to put less effort in arranging them from now onwards. Thanks for being my mentor.
I have been worrying that whether you are still active or not. If yes, please post more English grammar videos. Because, these are very helpful and makes learners life easy.
Sir, my teacher used to advise me to improve my grammar. After watching your videos, I score the highest in Grammar. Thanks a lot for your hard work and effort.
Sir actually just 4days before I joined spoken English class I'm not satisfied with their teaching, then I just open the youtube search the videos then i saw your videos now I'm free I can understand all the grammar u r teaching method was awesome 🙏 thank you so much sir
Thank you sir. The best classes! The best aspect of your classes is unique and complete. May Almighty give you more strength. The more you have energy the more we learn from you.
I wish you were my English teacher in school. The way you explained the difference between "ing" and "ed" adjective will scrap any doubts forming in the minds of students. Thank you so much. I wish teachers should make lessons memorable than focusing on finishing a chapter.

hello sir, thank you for explaining Adjectives nicely. All my doubts are cleared. i request you to please make videos on these topics as well, so that Adjectives is completely clear to us. 1. Formation of Adjective 2. Degrees of Adjective and 3. Correct use of Adjectives (like use of much, many, little, a little, the little, few, a few etc)
Love you, Ganesh! What an effort! What a neat presentation. Fantastic examples. That last example of sequencing adjectives, I still can't remember as if I studied in my schoolings. Good, you have helped me recollecting that also. Great job! Even thousand likes are not sufficient for the valuable knowledge you are sharing with the world! May God bless you.
Hi Ganesh sir, I have kind of confusions in identify subject and object in sentence especially in complex sentence. Please 1 billions salute to you because you are teaching free of cost that is why your are earl.
please make a class about...clauses,corrections:the tense,the verb,the preposition,the determiner,the gender,the number,subject verb agreement. sentences transformation all
sir uh haven't kept ur promise to make a separate video on determiners.... I think those of us who completed all of your playlists deserve this kind of generosity from uh...( sounds I'm emotional, hypothetically btw)
I'm very happy to hear that you like the lessons. And it makes me even happier to know that you are learning grammar by yourself at the age of 10! Best of luck, and let me know any time if you have any questions :)
