- In this video I will be destroying some common grammar and language myths, including ending sentences with a preposition, phrasal verbs in formal language, how and when to separate phrasal verbs, how much vocabulary you need for fluency, when to use 'will' and 'going to', and when children should start to learn English.
See you in class!

1:14 - Can you end a sentence with a preposition?
5:08 - Can you use phrasal verbs in formal English?
10:21 - When to separate phrasal verbs
13:41 - When to use 'will' or 'going to' to talk about the future
17:44 - How much vocabulary do you need for fluency?
20:10 - When should you teach your child English?
Hey Jason, the separable phrasal verb example has a problem, think about the meaning of : "Turn on authoritarians!" and "Turn authoritarians on!" it's easier to see 2 possible meanings, as Paul Barton points out below "turn on the power of choice" is confusing as it is ambiguous. I realise this glitch with "to turn on .." & "to turn .. on" is probably unwanted, but it's not an unusual usage :)
Hi.I want to refer to your first describe. What do you say about that. Who do you work for.
Dear Christian,
Thank you so much for your devotion in English teaching. I have really gained a lot of understanding in this language from your teaching. I really love your way, you have revealed the psychology of the languague, Engiish.
Best regards,
I really just love your teaching!
Please could you explain this :
Why a book was named "Me and You" ; insteaf of "I and you"???
When , for example, a person is asked about who is going to do stg, they answered :"Me"..
And not " I" ,????
Is it correct grammar?
I am from Brazil, and as you probably know, like Spanish, using the pronouns these way sounds very childish.
Thanks teacher
God bless you and your family always!

20:35 I'm totally agree
"the best time for anybody to start learning English was the day they were born and the second best time is right now"
You are definitely THE BEST teacher in the world, Christian! I get amazed every time I watch one of your videos, specially when you demystify the language and the learning process. You deeply inspire me. Thank you so much for your awesome lessons!

Very interesting as always. Continue helping us!
19:07 - This is the first time I have ever come across your channel (possibly because I am a native English speaker so why would TH-cam recommend it to me... it wouldn't), but at 19:07 this is one of the best definitions of WHAT you are trying to practise in order to improve in a language that I have ever heard:
"You need to have automatic control of the grammar structures that you can then put vocabulary in."
From one Aussie to another: That's bloody brilliant mate.
Edit:
23:00 - "coffee, beer, netflix". HAHAHA.
Good job,great examples , Christian!

Hi Christian. This class is a real breakthrough and Acts as a turning point in my life. I don’t know how to put words into sentence to thank you, but I think the only way to express my gratitude is to share it with my classmates and let them know that there is a resourceful and educated teacher who is able to say as many right things as we need to know. Simply. Thank you for your help

Thank you, man!
A million thanks to you 🌞
You are doing a great job man! As a teacher of English here in south Brazil for decades I can tell you are good man! I taught my son son all English I could and 3 years ago he went to Dublin to improve his English, and currently he is still there doing good, he´s attending CCT College (business) , and he got in contact with the Irish style English, tha´s really awesome. being in contact w/ the locals speaking like them gave him upper skills in English, I am a very proud father, practice makes perfect used to say my teachers from the past when I starting learning English in 1983 at College. In fact, I started getting in contact w/English when I watched on tv man landing on the moon back there on the '70s when I was a child, then in the very moment I decided I would learn that language guys were talking on the screen... I had success from that day on (ps: there were no mobiles, googles, and all this very importat tools everyone has gotten nowadays). I started learning by myself, then when I was 18 yo I entered College to give my English a definitive go. I have been watching your videos which are superb man. What a great masterpiece! Congrats man.
I have spoken w/my son on whatsapp videos and he´s speaking so fluently I cant believe! Wow... You stated in this 19.Nov video that a Child has no other chance than learning a native language just because it is a matter of "survival", on the contrary, Adults dont have the same feeling which makes much more difficult for them to learn, definitely, I agree w/ you my friend, adding anotehr fact: if this same adult is sent to a distant land, as my son went, this same adult will need to learn that local language "as a matter of survival", this happened to my son, despite the fact he had learned for year and even reached a good English before travelling to Dublin, but on the island he had to make it happen by practicing on a daily basis. He´s been making it happen!.
Learning a language as we know is a continuous process. Let´s keep practicing man! Keep up the oustanding work you have been offering us your subscribers!
Everytime I got depressed because my English level, I come here and just start to listen to Christian and then I feel better, after watching your videos Chris, I feel more capable to speak in a speech lol I feel with super powers. I would like to know you in the future. You're a person who bother it.
Great lesson and absolutely incredible teacher.👍👍👍Thanks a lot. Some your thoughts were a kind of revelation for me. I am quite agree with the myth of imposing the preposition at the end of the sentence. Your lessons are not only helpful, they are meaningful and profound. Really enjoy your videos. With you luck with your channel.
THANKYOU SO MUCH GREETINGS FROM MÉXICO
Christian, I thank you so much.
Really like it
Superb!
I adore your videos! Thank you so much!
When you have time, could you please go over such a topic as not observing the sequence of tenses rule in a colloquial speach? Like, "John told me he bought a mew car recently" instead of "had bougt"
You're the best teacher ever! You don't have millions of subscribers only because you and your ideas are way too sophisticated to be 'pop', if you know what I mean! Keep up the good work! Thanks a lot!
Amazing man!
Congratulation for te class, the best teacher in the world. Daniel from Brazil.
Churchill said:"Ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put!". True. G'day Christian from Mascot, Sydney town.
Congrats! In my humble oppinion your Channel is amazing! So damn interesting.
thank you for the video
I loved the way about you learn English...
This video is more a lecture than a class and full of essential data on the English language but having the command of it comes from practicing a word thousand times.
Fantastic
Hi Christian!! First of all, I love your videos!!! I've always wanted to know the rules for dividing words at the end of a written line. I know it is different from the Spanish way, but it is difficult to find explanations in an English grammar book. Could you please answer that in your next grammar questions video? Greetings from Argentina!
I love your channel
You make people think about the way they communicate for.
I completely agree about the passive voice, because it is unnatural to hear something like "the cup broke apart". The cup is just a thing without will and actions, so it is more naturally to hear "the cup was broken apart"
Love your madness.
I loved ❤
hi Christian, thank you for you tips, i like your vidéo.Didier from North of France
I've been studying english but Ineed to practice frequently. You has broken the mits
Very useful video, and links under the video.
I recently saw your videos and I liked it.
Thanks.
I have one question, rather a small problem. So, I can’t write grammatically. I read, watch a video, listen to a speech, talk, but when I need to write, I absolutely do not remember all the letters in the word that I write. Is there any way to improve this?
In my native language, Russian, I just read a lot and remember the words visually or I can spell them.
Thanks
Great video, Christian! Excellent job.
Do you think it's OK to use contractions like don't, aren't, isn't, gonna in a technical article?
Thank you
Artur Costa Steiner Most style guides say no contractions. Most technical writers do avoid contractions.
You are the one!
Hi Christian.
I am avid fan of your videos.
My question is that" could you please tell us some techniques to study English at home?"
Thank you!
Great! Actually your teaching is very advanced, psychological and kind of descriptive with clear and lots of explanation. I really like it! But why not so popular to gain lots of views? Because your teaching is kind of understanding rather than remembering or acquisition for what they are seeing with their eyes (a way of teaching low levels).
But, for me, I love this kind of psychological explanation because I can acquire your words and sentences (in chunks), and the way of speaking.
Thanks a lot for your devotion of time!
Hello! amazing video! could you just tell where I can find Joshua Paul's book? thank you so much :)
Interesting. When my students prepare for an exam, they have to go by the rulebook, or else! I'm always telling them that's not how it really works, but it looks like I'm just covering for my "mistakes", especially with going to and will.
Hobby. Listening to music . Charming text. Basic decoration. Eye on the wind longs for typing of wander bar.

This video scored a lot in one movement...
Cheers!!!!/
Gosto do seu modo de falar muito bom para praticar e imitar as palavras que você fala obrigado professor 😍😍😎
23:14 Adults are busy with other things :-D
Luckily I'm not busy either with beer or coffee or netflix. So I learnt English in self teaching in just one year and now I'm able to read books in English :-)
Thank you and happy New Year !
12:48 paramount point on phrasal verbs ;)
