It is to go outside in raining days because everything you see around is filthy. But my cozy room is spotless/immaculate.The mountain near my house is lives a lady next to my house who is me, I am hideous/grotesque.

She looks dissapointed because she wasn't passed her exam. She was terrible with her studying, that's why she ask her friend to teach her with it. And finally she could passed her exam with a best final result and grade, so she looks overjoy after that. OMG miss emma it's eassy to learn with u, i'm so thankfully with all of your videos😄😄

Love your delivery. It’s so sincere and natural, not gimmicky like some of the others I’ve watched. I learnt a great deal from your videos. Thank you! :D

[velvetbees]

I speak English as my first language. This idea about overuse of "very" occured to me recently, so thank you for confirming this idea. Becoming better as a writer began years ago when I stopped using "always" and "never" as a substitute for better words. Instead, I try to use words like "often" or "rarely". Very is a good word. But it can be over used. This is an excellent lesson for English and non-English speaking people.

[zhymfahad]

I started watching you, just a week before. I'm addicted to this... Your way of teaching is so great...Love and prayers from India.

[Crisguay]

Hi Emma! I fell in love with your channel when I first saw one of your videos a long time ago. I am learning every day thanks to them and I appreciate your effort, which helps us much more than you imagine. Good work, teacher. I will continue to learn from you.
Very nice = enjoyable, gratifying, delightful
Very boring = dull, tiresome, tedious
Very fast = speedy, fleet-footed

[ManishSharma-skzh]

Amazing and interesting lesson about how to avoid "very" and use other words. I appreciate your efforts and know the many other alternative with your lesson.
Very bad alternatives:

My mother seemed downcast when she started attending therapy, she wasn't particularly thrilled about the idea. During the last weeks, however, she has gotten used to the experience of counseling and she's showing major improvements. This makes me feel hopeful about her recovery.
