[SalmaAhmed-uhzv]

love it!
let me practice here
oh great I'm glad you got this job you're very persistent
omg! finally you got what you were seeking you are tenacious!

[keren]

I'm not learning English but teaching (a different subject) at a university. However, there are lots of things I can learn from Aly's videos - e.g., how to explain, clarify and articulate subtle differences.

[SaraZaghlol]

Great Mr Aly
Thank you 🎉🎉🎉
I loved this video

[sameetramrakhiani]

Undoubtedly it's a just fab lesson.👌👌 you really rock!❤

[Luka-ecgk]

I didn't see the first opening of your video you usually put... I waited until the end. Hahah. But it's good as usual.

[katesmith]

If all of my enemies were dead I would be freaking happy, not glad. ;)

[Salma-qhge]

Hiya, dude!
Well! here are my examples (glad, draining, demanding, affectionate, clingy, stubborn, persistent, tenacious, exhausting )
1) The high school in Egypt is so" demanding " especially the senior year,
2) Yesterday was a" draining" day for me 😭, i went with my friends to book chemistry private classes and that was "exhausting" because we had to wait in that educational center for around 7 hours
There were a lot of people, noise and chaos and of course the temperature was pretty high but me and my 2 friends waited " tenaciously" and eventually we did it, i'm genuinely "glad" that that terrible day is over (true story)

3) i'm an "affectionate" person, but i'm NOT clingy
4) in my opinion it's good to be " tenacious" but not " stubborn"
Please correct me if I used them wrongly

[sorayaroshan]

ALY, You make learning english enjoyable. you are the most effective and charismatic english teacher.

[RaijaAlatalo]

I broke up with someone but this person was not just clingy but also possessive. Not a good combination, I'm telling you.

[khan]

I'm frome Afghanistan I'm 17 years old I live in England I don't speak English but I watch your video year the best teacher

[marcosolza]

Hi Papa, good one! Could it be said about a clingy person that they are needy? I'd be glad to know that! 🙂

[sameetramrakhiani]

Oh, John! You know that Jimmy is such a stubborn person. So, stop wasting your time arguing the toss! he'll stick to gun on this issue.

[АнастасияСергеевна-тя]

Hey 👋🏻
Aly, could you please tell us what should we use instead of hello (both formal and informal) when we don’t know what time zone is our speaking partner? I’ve heard there is a common phrase, but it’s not the good morning/evening/afternoon?

[arturkhaziev]

Hiya! If I say, for instance, "I look at this mountain with trepidation" or "I look at this mountain with awe" - is it similar to "formidable"? Cheers!

[ganeshshinde]

There is no doubt that your an amazing teacher and you became my one of the best teachers in the world but i am amazed by your drawing skills it's just outstanding. Love from India.

[babyruthless]

I had a coworker who was clingy and I felt repelled by her since I met her but she wouldn't stop trying to force a friendship. Then a couple of months later I quit the job, and she sent me such creepy texts about how much she would miss me, but in an intense creepy way. I'm glad I don't have to deal with her anymore.

[aswarteremane]

Hey Aly! You're Messi of English teaching. I'm glad you made this video. Cheers!

[monimure]
