Extremely helpful! Thank you.
She's seeing the doctor at 3 PM is correct (action, but I would say future arrangement).

Hello Sarah, my teacher!
I am glad to see you again.
I miss you and your lessons all the time.
Thank you for the today lesson. It seems quite complicated to me so had to listen several times and write down all your examples and explanations from the video.
The following is my answer to the last question.
She sees the doctor at 3 pm today.
I think verb see in this context is a stative verb that describes a statement of how thing is, it doesn't describe an action.
I hope my answer is correct.
See you very soon, Sarah.
Take care!

Nice explanation. I have created sentences in which I have used "for" twice and adjacent to each other.For example, This is what I have been waiting for for a long time. Or This is what I have been asking for for so long.(I just want to know if these sentences are correct.)

[akshatmukundam]

Hello madam, I hope you are doing well. I have a question, having studied English for years, the verb that baffles me the most is "provide". Sometimes I come across "It provides you with something", whereas sometimes I hear "It provides you something( without a with )".Please tell me which one should I use?

Hello teacher! How are you? I hope you are well :)
I have a question, may I use 'weigh' in continuous tenses? In Spanish, let's suppose it is your (my....sadly :) ) first day at the gym and the instructor ask you (me, again sadly): "what is your weight right now?" (in my country gyms hardly count with weighing machines); it is not uncommon that the answer is: "eeeh, you know, I am / will be weighing 200 lbs" (as an assumption or hypothesis). I beg for your pardon teacher if this question is a little...silly.
As usual, your lessons are very helpful for me and i am really very grateful for them.
Well Teacher, I wish you the best for this week and I send you a fist or elbow bump (you know, because the pandemic, I can't send you a big hug :) ).

[florbelindapaucarsilva]
