Hi, Annie. I'm from Brazil and it is a pleasure listening some advice about English grammar from you. I'm a teacher of History here in my country, and I also enjoy learning other nice things: languages and cultures that are many different of mine. Because of that, I have studied ancient Rome for two years in my master degree. One day, maybe, I'm going to be able to speak confident your native language. I can understand, read, and write in English, in most of the time correctly, I think, however speak sometimes seems a nightmare. For that, I really appreciated what you do with us when you teach us. You are always kind and I've been learning a lot with your explanations. Maybe I won't be able to demonstrate my gratitude in a few words, but I have to say: You are such an awesome teacher! Have a great day. I wish you warm greetings from Brazil. See ya.
Hi Alexandro, thank you so much for the comment and sharing more about you. I'm glad to know you enjoy English, even if speaking is still challenging sometimes. I have some great tips for how to overcome fear, build confidence, and improve fluency in speaking. You can get them here: www.speakconfidentenglish.com/say-what-you-want-in-english/
@@Speakconfidentenglish Thank you for responding my comment. First, I need ask apologize to you for writing wrong your name in the previously comment, I'm sorry for that, really really sorry. Only now I realized that my mistake. Second, I clicked in the link and I liked what I saw in your website and I registred me to get for the free lesson, and it was beautiful to hear you speak about techniques of how talk in english without fear. Third and last one, I have to say again: how amazing teacher you are! Thank you so much for sharing the link. I'm so glad in this exactly moment and let's speak confident english. Learning is great. Bye.
Hi Alexandro, I'm thrilled that you downloaded my training and found it useful to you. I'm excited for you to use the strategies you've learned and make real progress in your English!
Thanks for your insightful observation on English learners’ most common mistakes.
Dear Teacher, my name is Hoang Truong and have been living in Sydney, Australia for 38 years. I regret that I know you too late in my life. Tonight is the first time I have a golden chance to listen to your very friendly, sweet voice with different useful English lessons. With a lovely torch you have brought beautiful light to this world! I would like to thank you for every thing and wish all the best to your family. Hoang
If you don't know what mistakes you're making, you can't fix them - it is so true. I would only add one thing - don't be afraid of making mistakes (I know, easier said than done). It often holds us back from improving. Great video, thank you. I'm looking forward to more from you.
So true, Bruce. Great comment.
Hello Annie! I’m from Ukraine and I’ve been trying to speak English for a very long time. I’m still a bit worried about my English. But when I turned this video on, I heard your incredible advice and your advice was very good and I understand now. The half of the video was the only thing I needed but the advice I think I also needed. Now it’s not “I going to Safe way.” Its “I’m (I am) going to Safe way.”
Hi, Liliia! I'm thrilled to know my video was helpful to you!
The best video I’ve ever seen in my life about mistakes in English, your explanations are so easy to understand and to practice. Thank you so much for help us with these such nice videos. God bless you.
So glad it was helpful, Ana Paula!!
Your explanation is so awesome Annie .I feel happy when I spend time in listening to your instructions .
I listen your Deck so many years . Just sincerely appreciate your truly English speaking, I listen your video when I commuter daily 1 hr
Thumbs up! Thanks for fixing our usual mistakes. We non native English speakers make those mistakes because we do not use English for 24 hours. We only use our English when we happen to see and meet Foreign visitors or guests and when we are in the English lessons in the classroom. As soon as we are free from the lesson, we don't use English outside in our daily interactions with each other. This is our biggest problem. Using English only in English classrooms or meeting with foriegn tourists. I would like to ask you if how to cultivate a habit of speaking English outside the class and I have to say that once long time ago I tried to speak English with my classmate and it worked out pretty good but that wasn't not everyday. That was only for few days. When you start speaking English outside where English is not spoken at all, you feel embarrassed and discomfort. When you go to the shop, market, school, park or anywhere outside, you speak your native language because they don't know English. When you start speaking English outside, why we get stuck and poor? How to learn to speak English in an environment where English is not spoken at all in public? What to do about it?
Thanks for the question. And I totally hear you. I've had the same challenges in trying to keep up my second language skills when I don't live in the country. One recommendation I have is finding on online speaking partner or a community where you can practice real-world conversations, even on topics that are outside your day-to-day English conversations. This can provide opportunities to engage on topics that are unusual and help you learn how to navigate those experiences with confidence.
Is it your great tone of voice or it means I'm improving my listening skills? You are very talented!
this is my second time I saw your video is just helpful . your english is completely understanding my big mistake is when I talk so I didn't put the verb in the right tense but I'm still trying I'm a stubborn to give up easily lol .
Glad it was helpful and that's great that you don't give up easily! Keep practicing.

Hi Maria! I'm thrilled that you are aware of these common grammar mistakes, and yet you are taking time to review and challenge yourself! 👏
I have been living in Chicago for two years (Present perfect continues is better = duration form )
Thank you Annie for the wonderful and practical strategy! I will keep that in mind and will do more drills and repetitions to create good habits for correct expressions.
I really enjoy and try to practice what annemarie says, her instructions are short and easy to follow.

Hi Annemarie. I have been watching your TH-cam videos for few weeks. I love all the English techniques that you taught. I have lived in America for over 25 years, and I am still struggling to speak confident fluency English at home with my kids and at work with my coworkers. I will continue to watch your lessons and learn a little everyday. I hope we will have a chance to do a video chat online in the future. Thank you very much. - Pam
Hi Pam. Thanks so much for the comment and thank you for watching my lessons.

Recently I've watched your videos it is so helpful. I want to ask you for advice to get my English level's up ?? now a days I am reading a book by English.

What is the difference between 'With' & 'Along' ??
If I read a lot can I fix my mistakes ? Thank you
How can I get the online lessons ?
I have lived doesn't make much sense to me. Isn't I have been living, which is present perfect continuous, more appropriate in this situation?
Thanks dear madam ❤️❤️❤️💙💙
I like your videos
thankyou so much ma'am
...
I always make a mistake about.."tell"
I said Don't tell "to" anyone.
but now I know the correct is Don't tell anyone. 😅
nice video
great
Please correct my sentence: I have been teaching in a private school for five years, but I resigned last March 2018. I taught basic English, Science, Values Education for Elementary grades.
Nice
When l listen i can understand any thing but when i want to speak feel that i cant speak. What is ur opinion ???i feel shame
You're not alone. Many people struggle with speaking because they don't get enough practice. I recommend trying the method I shared in the video if you don't have people to practice with.
That is great always that happen me but, this video have a lot of true stuff, now i'm yours ✌😉
Annemarie hello
My favorite madam 🌹🌹🌹
native speakers? What are you saying with that expression?
💚💚💚
👍👍💕💕
Thank you so much
You're super welcome!
To record myself was really a through-breaking point. It wasn't so bad as I imagined however to be honest I could see that I have a lot of work ahead to be perfect.
Thank you a lot
l like your channel because she speaks well and also spoken slowly that’s why l follow you good teacher , god bless you
I have lived in Chicago for two years OR I have been living in Chicago for two years.
Exactly right!
If you still live in Chicago than , you have been living in Chicago for 2 years. Lol
personally, i find that Annie's speach is more spontaneous than other teachers and i can perceive the thinking of her. her class is more like talk show which reveals her strong abilities in the field. i appreciate that.
Thank you so much. And I'm impressed with your listening skills. You're right that I don't script my videos. I have some notes and an outline but I like to teach on video the same way I would teach a friend or dear student.
Hi, Annie. I've just watched your video for the first time. I can't tell why, but your voice made me comfortable. It's not only comfortable, but it also elegant. I haven't seen you before, but i think you are aging well and gracefully. Also, i like the way you teach english. I'll subscribe your channel. Thank you.
I'm so glad to hear that. Thank you for watching and I'm glad to know my lessons are helpful to you. 😀
Hi annie , thanks for the lesson. I like to learn more lesson so I can improving my english. It's hard for me to find office job because my english.
Thank you so much for your this lesson.. this lesson helped me a lot..
I considero that My grammar is correct but I ' ve always had problems with My pronunciation.
Hi AnneMarie. Thanks for this video. I have a question about present perfect. For example, If I want to talk about an action that still continues in the present, why should I use "I have worked for X years in this company" and not "I have been working for X years" ?
🙏🏼❤️ thank you so much for your help
Really AnneMarie Is a beautiful lady.Also speak slowly so l can understand her words. Thank .
Nice again Annie. I'm gratefull by yours teacher lessons. Actually I can lissen and understand English more isally way, and I'm improving just yours videos support. Thanks a lot
