How to De-emphasize (Soften) English Sentences
00:07:15
I'm sure that you know how to emphasize something in English, but have you learned how to de-emphasize a sentence? De-emphasizing is very common in English, and in this English lesson I'll teach you how to do it.

Have a great day!

As you learn English you'll want to know how to describe different types of weather. In this English lesson I'll help you learn how to describe a snowy day in English. There are many types of weather, but we're having a snowstorm here right now, so I thought this would be a great time to help you learn how to talk about it. As you know, talking about the weather is a form of small talk in English, so you'll want to master it!
There are a few words and phrases for describing a snowy day. The snow can be light, it can be moderate, or heavy like when we have a blizzard. Today the snow is moderate - not light, but not heavy, but it will probably snow a lot harder later in the afternoon. There definitely are many things getting covered in snow though!
In this English lesson I'll be sure to teach words and phrases like accumulation, wind chill, blowing snow, drifting snow, and many more!
I think you'll enjoy this English weather lesson about describing a snowy day!

Free English Class! 🏃🧍🏾 Topic: Commands and Orders
00:24:48
Sometimes you need to tell someone what to do. We do this in English by using a command or an order. A command or order is a verb in the imperative form. The cool thing about the imperative is that you don't need to memorize the subject or the conjugation - you just use the verb (without the "to" in front.)
In this English lesson you'll learn a variety of commands, orders, and requests using the imperative form. You'll learn phrases like Get lost!, Be quiet!, Relax!, Watch out!, and many more.
I hope you enjoyed this free English class about commands and orders! Have a great day!

How to Ask Fast and Natural Sounding Questions in English
00:06:53
You've probably learned by now that spoken English is a bit different than written English. As you learn English, you learn how to write it properly, and how to speak it slowly. Native English speakers tend to compress their sentences though when they speak at a normal rate. Sometimes a whole sentence sounds like one long word!
In this English lesson I'll go over the common, proper structure for forming questions, and then I'll let you know how I would actually say these in a regular English conversation. I'll be sure to give you the format for questions starting with: Where, What, How, Why, and When. Even though these questions will be about a trip, they can be adapted for any situation.
So take the time to enjoy this free English class. Watch it a few times and try to shadow me (repeat after me) when I ask the questions and give the responses so that you can train yourself to sound a bit more natural when having an English conversation.
Have a great day!

One of the most frustrating things about learning English is when you know a word the day you learn it, and then a few days later, in an English conversation, you forget it. In this English lesson I'll give you some good solid tips on how to remember English vocabulary after the first time you learn it.

A Little Bit of Encouragement for English Learners
00:07:00
Every few months I like to make a video for English learners to teach them some new phrases, and at the same time I like to use those phrases to encourage them. This English lesson will do just that! It makes sense that as you do something difficult like learning English that you are encouraged by someone, and that you also learn how to encourage someone!
Anytime I can be a positive person in your life as you continue learning English or in your life in general, I hope it helps you to be kind to someone else in return. In this English lesson I will do two things. I will give you some encouragement and I will teach you some English sayings we use when we give others encouragement.

In this English class I’ll help you learn how to conjugate the verb “to do” in the most common two tenses, and how and when to use it.
