I've been teaching English for a decade now and this video helps me a lot to understand the tenses of verbs easily, so I share it to my students.

I think, the best convenient situation to test ourselves is having a conversation with native speakers

[Wisky]

The best way to learn english is practiced everyday such as writing, speaking, reading and listening and the best part will be having talking with a native english.

When I left a house this morning it was snowing. While I was studying at the academy there was more snow, unfortunately. Finally, I left the academy and went to the tram stop. But there were only twelve standing. An old woman said she had been waiting for the tram for over an hour, I was shocked when I heard about that. The streets were covered with snow especially the one I was on, it was quite atmospheric. When I was waiting for the tram I was paying close attention to my feet because I was afraid to slip in the snow. It had been snowing all morning so the streets were uncomfortable to walk there. The road was full of cars and it was traffic jams. One man told me the reason for the traffic jams It was a car. All the snow had caused a car to slide through a red light and into oncoming traffic. The man, who told me about that, had already called the emergency traffic but they hadn't arrived at the scene yet. A nurse, who had witnessed the accident, was helping injured people. The evening news had warned about wild weather but the warnings hadn't convinced people from driving. By the time the emergency services got to the scene, the nurse had treated the injuries already, she kept their lives and the drivers had exchanged insurance details there

Dear Emma; When I watch your videos, I think like this. As if there is no word that I do not understand from English, I do not understand that much in other channels. So glad that I have you.

[vaishalinain]

I did mistakes mostly in past perfect and was confused whether to use didn't or hadn't during negative sentences.

[madra]

to be honest there are a lot of lessons like this on yt, but not many have an appearance so inviting, pun or not intended.
