hi, i've seen in some videos that there are 16 verb tenses, what should I learn?
Given the fantastic explanations, it wouldn't be fair to our teacher to score anything other than a 100% on the test. Thanks a million, Teacher Arnel.
Thank you so much for your kind comment :)
so far she is the best English teacher on youtube for me...the way she talked and mentioned are very clear and step by step so the students dont get confused..love ya from jakarta Indonesia
I think in english language there are too many tenses that make foreign people confused
Exactly, l've spent too much time to understand the differences between these.
You have no idea, Spanish is way more complex when it comes to tenses and conjugations. If fact English is a very practical language keeping in mind how complex other languages are. The thing that it differs a lot from Spanish or other languages, but if you focus on similiraties rather than differences, you will figure how easy learning English with the correct mindset, approach and guidance. Don't give up you will get it one day for sure and always repeat " English is easy" cause it actually is.
I had been studying like crazy so I decided to get a little rest !
Nice example ;)
I decided to get a little rest as I had been studying like crazy.
Is it ok, too ? Pl, 🙏
@@khinaye1787 Yes, that is also correct.
Perfect lesson, very well explained! 👍
You have actually extracted new grammatical rules which is really amazing. Thank you for this useful lesson.
I'm so happy my lesson was useful. Thank you! :)
I can’t thank you enoughhh!! I’d been really confused for months to confirm whether the action would continue after the interruption.. no one actually went deep into it.. but you did!! Thanks a bunch 🥺🥺💕💕💕
I'm so happy this lesson helped! You're very welcome :) :)
Very true
@@ArnelsEverydayEnglish #5 can be written with "was" and "had been" as well. "I let Mike borrow my laptop because I had not been using it - This is also correct but with lil different meaning if not any reason.
@@eclecticeccentrickamikaze6526 Using? What it basically meaning? If I said "I paid using phone". It means using pay-sevise, using call-servise, maybe barter?
I had been studying this verb tense for ages and finally I got it. Thank you so much for the explanation.
Keep it up!!
Have a great one!
On behalf of all non-native students, I thank and appreciate your efforts to teach us English. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏Keep on it.🤞🤞🤞
Arnel I am not gonna lie to you, I have actually attempted all of them correct. I have been working on perfect and perfect continuous videos in present and past tenses lately.
I must say this, the way you have explained couple of your advance level structures, nobody has actually.
Thanks a lot to be on TH-cam Arnel.🙏
every time I watching you I get positive energy to continue English grammar lessons absolutely without getting bored
you are ultimately amazing teacher , many thanks for your great show up
Could I be more thankful hahahah

You are one of the best teachers that I have learnt so far. Thanks for this.
Arnel's grammar explanation is very interesting and easy to understand, thank you so much!
It's the most thoroughly explained lesson I've ever seen . You are wonderful teacher Arnel
You deserve to have much more suscribers ! You're such an excellent teacher! I'm thrilled to have found you on TH-cam. Lots of you may think the same
She is best teacher in explaining the difference between past simple and present perfect
Hello Arnel ! Your teaching method is breathtaking.
This is great and no one could explain the difference better than you.
Fantastic explanation. I have understood all the rules by one time watching and it was quite amazing. I can't help watching it again and there's something I have noticed that when you watch the same thing again and again, you always find out newer things and that's a mystery. Thumbs up! I appreciate that! Cheers!
Your way of explaining a topic is simply great Ms Arnel. Thank you so much.
I've been studying for my IELTS test, and one of the course I need to learn is this chapter. Actually it's not easy for me to understand, but after I've watched this video, now I can understand it..
Thank you for your explanation it's really helpful ☺️☺️
great job.
Brother studying IELTS test, can i give when you are entering exam in result?
Did you pass your test ?
One of the courses,not course. Because You are choosing singular among plural , not singular among singular .
Super easy to understand for anyone. I had been confused by the difference between past continuous and past perfect continuous since I started studying English, I understood well after watching your explanation. Thank you. You made my day.
Hi Arnel, i'm speechless when i see the quality of your videos and the way you explain the grammar rules . Thank you so much for helping me to improve my English !😘😘😘😘
Hii Arnel the way that you explain grammer rule and structure is amazing because of this I can't stop myself to watch your videos . thank you so much for explaining about pc and ppt very well
Thank you for your great teaching. Tomorrow we have an English exam and I hope I will get high grades by watching you Ms. Arnel!
You are great Arnel as usual. It would be good a downloadable pdf document to the lessons.
Well... I've been watching some of your videos and tbh, I have never seen a channel like yours. I could start with the argument of the stunning video edition, we can really see that you are putting all of your efforts into each video, and the attention that you give to your students on the comment's section is so wholesome to see! Wish you all the best.
You are the ideal teacher that i have been looking for. I can't find any word to admire your efforts and knowledge; the only thing i can say is that you're the best.
I have been completed my bachelor's and master's long ago but actually, I am being clear about my grammatical mistakes recently. Especially your classes are helping me the best. I can easily relate to communicating with myself the way of your listening techniques. It's really resourceful. Words could not be enough to express my gratitude to you. Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for your video. I’m French but I understand everything you are explaining. It’s very clear.
Yahoo! I'm so happy to hear that. Thank you Bernard! :)
It's incredible. After many years I have found such a magical method to learn grammar concepts.you are amazing mam.
Probably one of the best videos for learning English, precise and interesting.
I had been studying this tense for a month until I found your content. It’s really good one . Thank you so much

Your teaching method is breathtaking, I really appreciate your extremely helpful work. 8/8 Thanks a lot
Great job on the test 💪! I'm really happy you liked this lesson:)
@@ArnelsEverydayEnglish สวัสดีครับ ผมจะใช้เวลาอีกเท่าไหร่นะถึงจะ พูดได้ เขียนได้ สื่อสารได้ แต่ยังไงผมก็ไม่ยอมแพ้ครับ ✌️✌️✌️🌹🌹🌞❤️❣️❤️🌺🌺🍱🍨🧃🧃🥰🥰🥰ขอบคุณครับ บ๊าย
I got 8/8. Thank you so much for the video, it’s very clear to me about how to use P.C and P.P.C in different situation. Thanks again Ariel🙏❤️
Clearly explanation of the two English tenses, dear teacher. Thank you so much👍
Nice job Arnel 👍 I'm on teacher training course and not only improving my English skills by watching your videos but learning teaching techniques as well. Million thanks 😊
That's great! I'm so happy to hear that my videos are helping you! :)
@@ArnelsEverydayEnglish I can see crucial in-class techniques being not only used, but evolved to a whole new level by the use of technology, such as modeling and some mini-drills.
I highly value teaching technique. In my country, almost all English courses/schools are not building teachers; they just want "ready-to-go teachers".
Students constantly tell me my classes are better than my workmates and I don't like it. There's no pattern at all. :(
Has teaching changed to worse in your countries, guys? I started to study 20 years ago, in an old method, with less resources but with teachers with much more technique, gladness, productivity and efficiency.
@@ArnelsEverydayEnglish 🙏🌹
I watch your videos before every English exam and they're really helpful. At the last exam I got 100/100. Thank you so much 🙂 You're doing great
Woohoo! That's wonderful!! Thank you :)
I must listen this lesson for several times, because it is a long and a difficult lesson. Before to tackle the mini-test. It is well constructed lesson, but it doesn't eliminate the complications of the lesson! Tank you for your goodwill!
You are very enthusiastic and I really like illustrations and props.
You have a gifted talent to teach .
Thank you from Australia 🇦🇺

You're very welcome! I'm happy you like my lessons :)
Superb. Your teaching is very clear.
Wonderful! I'm happy it's clear :) :)
I was admiring my beautiful teacher for a long long time
Thank you, Arnel, for such a great lesson! Very clear and profound explanation! Can you please explain, why do we use in the sentence №10 (I was advertising / I had been advertising for months before I got my first customer) Past Perfect Continuous (had been advertising)? I got the point that we want to emphasize a long duration of the process of the advertising, but for most businesses, as far as I know, the process of advertising doesn't end after getting the first customer, so, in that case, action of getting the first customer is happening during the process of the advertising (it interrupts it, but doesn't stop and in that case we can only use Past Continuous)?
Good question! If the past perfect continuous is an interrupted action, it may continue after the interruption. It really depends on the context. And normally with the past continuous, the duration isn't mentioned. Hope this helps :)
@@ArnelsEverydayEnglish Thanks a lot:)
Нифига ты настрочил
@@ArnelsEverydayEnglish 🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️🌺☀️☀️☕️🍀🍔🍎🍇🌺🌺good morning 🌺🌺✌️✌️
You know, I had been struggling on past continuous and past perfect continuous tense before I watched this video! (I hope I’m using right tense here!) Anyway, thank you for this amazing video and your efforts:)
Great use of the tense Hau! * struggling WITH the past continuous .... ;)
It’s clear now yeah! Thank you for your reply:) I really appreciate the extra effort you're making us these nice videos.
@@ArnelsEverydayEnglish Amel, you've been helping me on learning English, especially on perfect tenses and I really appreciate your videos! :)
But besides perfect tenses I noticed that I'm struggling on choosing correct conjunctions (with, on, etc.). Would you make a video about it too in the future? I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you in advance :)
