I'm an English teacher in a country as beautiful as yours, Brazil. I can say that you are one of the best teachers I have ever seen. I found your channel last week, and I'm already a fan. My wife even said that you explain things like I do, with a light spirit and humour. I'm very happy that there is a professional like you; and you helped me a lot to find a way to better approach Phrasal Verbs, which is something very difficult for Romance language speakers to understand. God bless!

[@angulardev228]

Wow, that's a real treasure. Always struggle to remember and use phrasal verbs mostly due to their 'random' meanings, but this explains a lot :) Thank you.

[@asmr_rico]

so true, Can t agree with you more

[@chrisdavis7019]

As I ESL teacher I have struggled to find any formula for teaching phrasal verbs. You are absolutely correct that standard methodology says they're illogical and require memorization. Thank you for this revolution in teaching phrasal verbs.

[@alexandraing]

I love the passion you speak with and explain things.

[@cavidhummatov4431]

I've always looked for a someone who could explain the logical perspective lying behind the phrasel verbs such as break up, look up, go on, keep on, come up, better off - because I can't lay any knowledge in my long-term memory if I can't get the basic logical reason of why this or that is used that way. I thank you for this great job. We learners highly suffer from the lack of teacher doing it the way yo do. I suppose that almost all native speakers don't chew over the reason of why they use "better" with "off" when they want to talk about improvement. Because they've embraced it as it is since their childhood, but for anyone who's trying to keep any phrasel verb in their word reservoir, it's crucial to get to know its underlying perspective.

[@obraspelobrasil7951]

Most English native speakers have no clue about the words "phrasal verbs''.

[@CBJAMPA]

Cavid Hummatov - You’ve nailed it! This teacher does make a lot f sense, doesn’t he?

[@altrefrontiere2354]

@C "you've nailed it" or "you nailed it"? :) I guess both are correct (I'm not a native english speaker). But americans would use the past tense in this case.

[@CBJAMPA]

Altre Frontiere - I am not a native speaker myself, but, on second thought, I think you’re absolutely right. Good point. “You nailed it” is more like a chunk of language, a ready to use idiomatic expression, more naturally used without a correct verb tense concern. Thanks!

[@angelpais8160]

I've allways thought why English have verbs if we have to decorate them to understand the true meaning. LOL

Using Cognitive linguistics as an explanation method is super effective and easy to digest. It makes much more sense for non native speakers to grasp the nature and origin of phrasal verbs. Thanks for sharing 🙏🙂

[@francescarub7485]

I'm new here. I was searching for phrasal verbs' explanations and I've found you out. These was the best english class of my entire life. Your way of teaching other people is simply unique. Respect on you! Please keep it so far, because from today I'm going to follow and support you!

[@juanbernal12]

I'm in Canada and I speak fluent english but I watched this nonetheless because it's a pleasure to see english taught from a cognitive linguistic basis. It honestly baffles me why the lessons of this field aren't applied more in language teaching. I myself have just finished reading Adele Goldberg's Explain Me This and reading it while learning Turkish at the same time has been incredibly insightful.

[@masterfercho1663]

Now I see that the most important part of the phrasal verbs are the particles. If you learn the particle or preposition, you will be able to understand phrasal verbs. Thanks for your explanation. You really made me keep motivated.

Cássio, cuidado com esse jeito de querer falar inglês traduzindo do português. A sua frase teve muitos erros grotescos por conta de uma tradução ao pé da letra. Eu também sou um professor de inglês, e eu vejo muitos alunos com esses erros por conta de seus professores. Como você disse que "se formou" em 2013, vejo que você é novo na língua. Sugiro que você ache um jeito de praticar o seu inglês com nativos, e comece à assistir séries/filmes do cotidiano do Americano ou Britânico (em inglês e sem legenda, óbvio). Veja isso como uma crítica construtiva 😀
