Hello Jennifer! Good to see you! I have found a full stack of examples of how to use the word <instead> in the lesson. My examples:
1. You shouldn't ride. You should stay at home instead.
2. I think I'm going to the cinema. You should finish your chores instead.
3. I'm going to have breakfast. You should swim instead of having breakfast. Or instead of having breakfast, you should visit a gym.
4. I'm going to take a taxi. Instead, you should buy a new car.
Thank you so much for the lesson!

Thank you so much, indeed.
I have been confusing how to use "Instead" for years.
However, I really understand it now because of you.
I usually watch your lessons on Youtube. Those are useful to progress my English skill.

Thank you again.

Hi Jennifer! Thanks! Examples: 1) Instead of doing this my way, is there an easier and more efficient way to do this? 2) Don't go there on foot, it's far away. I recommend you go there by bike instead.
