[kimgowers]

I am 50 years old and have very poor English. I never had taken English class. I am hoping this will help me speak and write better. Thank you!

[serraklcaslantakva]

This can be one of the must-watch videos, even if you have a good level of English. So informative and it is a real gem!!!

[tghsdcg]

It’s probably THE MOST rich content video about english tenses I’ve ever seen! Very structured and clearly presented

[venumikasundi]

I had never seen a teacher who teaches English in such a simple way like this before.Thank u very much teacher😘

[linseylee]

Honestly Arnel, we are just so fortunate to have you here sharing all about English learning ❤

[ezel]

girl you literally saved my life. i have been struggling with tenses for months. so i couldn't learn other grammar subjects. i learned better in this 1 hour lesson more than my works for months. THANK YOU 💖

[ddahstan]

Arnel's a Grammar Goddess! I swear, she explains things where you feel like you're in haven, very enjoyable, clear and fun!

[camilarodriguez]

I don't know how she has so much air to speak. She is so fantastic, I love the way how she express and manages the class, I love the examples and the way that she is smiling all the time!

[ayoubejraidi]

I get 12 out of 12 for the first test, and I get 11 out of 12 for the second test.
You know what, the grammar is the most painful thing in learning english, and your videos are the cure of that pain. So, I can't tank you enough.
You're helping me a lot for learning english; certain here, the place when I live, there no resources for learning.
So, I really appreciat your effort. Your videos like the hope in this desert

[apostlemosesoluwanusin]

Arnel, without a doubt you are a born teacher and teaching is your calling. You also demonstrate understanding of effective learning patterns, and you take your listeners through the easiest path to learning every topic. You are a teaching legend, living your purpose, we are blessed for it. We appreciate you so much, Thank you.

[jamshidmohmand]

I have never seen a teacher with such simplicity in teaching method, great for you.

[vinci]

I have been working on my English language skills, both orally and in writing.

Before the pandemic hit, I had been studying at the university as a student.

By the end of this year, hopefully, I will be working at the call center as an English speaker.

[LiLi-wsqz]

An excellent lesson, comprehensive guide for all the English tenses! thank you, Arnel!🙏

[Juliana.b]

No hate to my teacher; I respect her so much, But I have to admit that your way of teaching and explaining is way more understandable. I have an English exam tomorrow and this video has prepared me to acquire all the tenses. Thank you so much!!

[elpepe_slayer]

This is the best channel to learn English! You teach so well ! Thank u
José from Ecuador.

[pgbombketchup]

I’m a native English speaker but have never learned this lesson in English grammar. By the end I felt like I fully grasped the material! I love that you speak very slowly and clearly, with plenty of pauses so the material can sink in. Even for native speakers this is too technical to comprehend if spoken too quickly. The examples were all very useful and the homework questions asking for personal examples helped to bring interest and ownership over the concepts. I subscribed and I’m excited to have such a great teacher teaching me grammar!

[waldomiguel]

Absolutely useful and very grateful with you dear teacher Arnel. You rock! Sincere blessings!

[zulqurnainhaider]

I had never seen such a beautiful teacher who teaches English

[mahsahe]

I can’t believe it. I have been trying to learn tenses so hard. It is the first time I completed a test perfectly. I’m so grateful. Please take some more tests if it is possible for you.
