[@darekszpak725]

Hi Kayla, just wanted to let you know I like your style. You talk about idoms and other useful expressions in a very casual way - which is good - unlike plenty of others, pretending to be teachers, preachers or lecturers - even if good but stuck-up too :-) I'm going to make the most of the stuff you're sharing with

[@allybaba2735]

I am impressed how you bring new Idioms/expressions that are different from other Channels! Thank You

[@slowlearner4341]

Hi Kayla. I have already emphasized that you are one of the best KZbinrs who teaches idioms. Refreshing them today, I decided to make such a comment. I allow myself to disagree with one of your opinion. You advised us never burn bridges. However, I do it from time to time and I feel great afterwards. Because there are people around everyone who do not appreciate a person, but only figure out how to use. Feeling or seeing this, I burn bridges with such "friends" and I recommend everyone to do so. And I do believe that many people have been doing similarly.

[@moozanan9861]

Thank you so much Kayla..I like all these idioms

[@Outis_Itaka]

Good job! Thank you! Very useful.

[@slowlearner4341]

Dear Kayla. This video is pretty long and I didn't finish watching it. I can't wait, however, to let you know that you are excellent youtuber! And you're expert about idioms and other word combinations. I love your videos SO MUCH! Thank you!

[@unknownbrazilian1734]

Great video, I'm always glad to learn new expressions in English, It would be great to learn some local slangs and expressions from different places in US, like the place you live in, your state for example.

[@servandocalzadillas2323]

Dear Kaila, you really are a treasure for all of us who study with your videos. You explain everything very very good. I wish I could suscribe 300,000 times so that you can reach soon one million subscribers. Thank you for everything and God bless you!!!!

[@doremifasolatido-ro7zs]

I like this episode Khayla! i hope you post more in the future.

[@aram5642]

Great material, quite a few takeaways (even though I haven't finished yet). I would have used this recently: 'to cave in', had I known it. 'to take the high road' - had known this before but forgot it. One request though. These long episodes are difficult to take. Shorter episodes are more inviting, while longer videos are very likely to be skipped. KZbin doesn't always continue from where you left off so it is a bit frustrating to have to find the last idiom you've watched. Smaller chunks, please.

[@alessiovacca1177]

You did make my day ❤ This video is awesome Gorgeous choice of idioms and great examples Im going to learn them all well Thank you!

[@steelfanther328]

Thanks a whole lot for your awesome videos! Keep up the good work! We kind of wish you would include more US idioms and slang expressions in your teaching materials, though, so we could communicate with native speakers of American English on an entirely new level. Also, could you please upload videos a bit more often because we are extensively using them in our ESL classes here at the American Language Center. - ESL students Moscow, Russia
