A little about me:

My name is Minoo. I’m originally from Iran, and I live and work in the U.K.

I’m a qualified English teacher and teacher trainer, but that’s not what makes me good at my job.

I just love teaching! It makes me feel good when I can share something I’ve learned with others. That’s why I still love teaching English after 40 years of doing it!

English is such a vast and complicated language! My passion is to make it as easy as possible for others to learn. My students always praise my ‘clear explanations’ and 'structured method'.

I suppose I can explain things well because I’m not a native speaker. I’ve struggled with English pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary myself. I’ve had to work out the rules and learn the exceptions, and I just love sharing my own discoveries with others like me who are learning English as a foreign language.

Thank you so much, everyone, for all the ‘likes’ and your lovely and supportive comments! I'm so grateful for your support!

Unsure when to use "do", "to do" or "doing"? Then this lesson is for you!

[heikelaufer]

Thank you so much Mino I often tell my students from Intermediate upwards that you are their 2nd teacher for grammar and usage. Your videos and presentations are so clear and accessible.

[ahmedbahloul]

Great lesson with very clear explanations.  Thank you for the effort you've been making.

[asafubuheri]

I wish you were my teacher in secondary school.i appreciate your lessons, they're really helpful.

[beathard]

Very important topic to study. I really have difficulties with this. Thanks for helping me to make it more clear Minoo.

[Dybbouk]

Thanks Minoo. I fancy trying this out on my students!! I tell my students to watch your channel. I like following your dissections of English grammar.

[fernandomora]

Very useful tips, I often say the wrong tense of doing in a conversation, but perhaps the best way is training your ears, just as you said. After all, that's the best way to learn English.
Thanks for the video, useful as usual!
Greetings from Mexico!

[MrRA]

I really enjoy watching your vídeos aimed at using them as an extra teaching source
especially for Brazilian students. All your lessons are well prepared containing enough
information deemed necessary for effective learning. Congrats!

[Dybbouk]

My ear is trained but I couldn't have explained it like that. Hopefully I can now try with my students. Bravo Minoo!!

"He is entitled to receive" is correct. (Native speaker, credentialled English teacher)

[asv]

This is super hard and complicated. There are also many contradictory rules about the subject on the internet. They don't even work.

[mahbodpirayesh]

your teaching techniques are incredible as well. good job!

wish you the best from your country ;)

[elibertomartinez]
