Lucy is definitely one of the best English teachers nowadays!
Thanks, darling! Lots of love!

[sanskritisankalp]

I will never be late for this online class

[unabyband]

As a former musician, I should notice - the idiom "to play something by ear" literally means "to improvise", thanks for another great lesson!

[alisonbassplayer]

In Brazil we have some of the same expressions with the same meaning: I'm all ears (Eu sou todo ouvidos); Cost an arm (custa um braço); give a hand (dar uma mão); have head in the clouds (ter a cabeça nas nuvens); makes my blood boil (faz meu sangue ferver); only over my dead body (só sobre meu cadáver); I'm washing my hands (Estou lavando minhas mãos). In another hand, Cold Feet (pé frio) in Brazil means that someone is unlucky.

I am Turkish and I am learning new things in English thanks to you. Thank you so much ♡♡♡

[brucebaldwin]

As an ESL instructor, this is very, very helpful!! Thank you, Lucy!

[highnessroyal]

I used to feel stressed. But After being all ears to Lucy's videos, I let my hair down and get my chins up! I am heads over heals in love with British language more! I hope I will wash my hands of my problems and thus get no cold feet during my future speeches!

BTW: in Cantonese area or even in China, there is no such an idiom as "sweet tooth", but instead we have "sweet tongue" in order to describe a patronizing snob.

I love Lucy, and I fell head over heels in love with her English classes. When she is talking, I am all ears. I learned a lot from these lessons, and I should give myself a pat on the back.

I just wanted to say I recently stumbled across your videos and am enjoying them. I'm a native speaker (American), but find your voice and speech patters very soothing and thus like having your videos on in the background sometimes. I also like hearing what parts of English can cause non-native English learners to stumble, as it helps me communicate more clearly with my non-native English speaking friends. Keep up the good work!

Today is very interesting 😄 class thanks Lucy mam

[iranildoanjo]

IT'S REALY NICE TO HEAR YOUR PRONUNCIATION

[МарияР-бъ]

Head over heels — not in order, to be turned over totally?
I like these ones:
At arm's length — to keep distance (also in the law sphere)
To be up to eyes in smth — to be extremely busy (my fave)
In Russian we have sladkoyezhka (sweets eater) for sweet tooth.

[inayahfatimah]

Lucy, I so want you to make a lesson on poetic words and phrases, I always have trouble with understanding them and hence, with appreciating English poetry. I will be so thankful to you if you make a video on English poetry.

[aaditripreetiatrey]

"Break a leg" Is one of the synonymous of Good luck you suggested in an old video... I watched it with all ears and now I use it often...
Thanku Lucy.. 😍

[slowlearner]

It was excellent material, enjoyable manner of explanation and very friendly reminder what motivation is. Comme d'habitude, Lucy. Merci beaucoup!
