I'm a native English speaker, and I found your channel a few months ago. I watch your videos for the hell of it lol. But I like your voice. It's very calming. Also, this video is gonna help me so much with making friends, and maybe even public speaking! I have pretty intense stage fright, so this might help me with it ❤️

[@rachelsenglish]

That's great Lisa! I hope you make new friends! :)

It's insane how creative your courses are designed. Can only imagine the amount of time and effort you invested into it. I've never seen any language courses like this (and your "placement" videos) before. Thank you!

Cool, you share this with us. I already knew this and implemented visualization in all aspects of my life. Neuroscience proves it.

Hello there Tiago and thanks for watching!

[@gruberrobert2071]

I actually love it to be here listening to Rachel lessons for the improvement of English Skills. Once again Rachel you’re one of the most amazing and extraordinary teacher I’ve ever seen. But what I found so interesting in the process of improving oneself is to Know Way More Than You Are Saying and also To Just Speak It Out The Way You Can Say It. So I think those are the basic ways to look towards it.

[@rachelsenglish]

You're welcome and thanks for sharing Gruber!

This is amazing. I’m sure this will help a lot! I noticed in the past that many people could speak any language with a much better pronunciation if they weren’t stuck in their old identity.

Wow , I realized I do this exercise almost everyday unintentionally. I always picture myself speaking and conveying my thoughts spontaneously on TV. Now I understand why my accent is good. it all boils down to confidence.

The other thing that may be holding some students back is that they may have never taken English courses before or had lesser opportunites than the other students in their countries. Some foreign students may have gone to expensive private school where they may have taken some basic English lessons, and for others, they may come from rural towns where English was never taught. That is what makes a huge difference too.

Hi! I'm from Vietnam. Currently, I'm an English learner. I have a question for you ( if you can make a clip that would be great ). My question is: How can I use as many sentence structures and phrases that native speakers use most often in life? Because I plan to take the Ielts exam in the near future, I really need your guidance. Thank you so much.

[@marthaespitia514]

Pretty cool video and a very practical exercise

[@rachelsenglish]

I appreciate it Martha and thanks for joining the community!! :)

[@romanstark4377]

Hey guys! Can you help me make out something here? I did a test today and there was this sentence: "I'm so tired. I think, I will / am going to take a nap. The correct option is "I will" The general rule states we use will when we talk about predictions based on our personal opinion and assumptions and it's not substantiated by common sense facts: "I think, I'll get the raise next year." Returning to the first example there's a little problem. On the one hand we got an introduction "I think" which expresseses our personal opinion but on the other hand there is a clear signal the future action is likely to happen - "I'm so tired" And yet the correct answer is "I will". So following this logic is it fair to say we're supposed to use "I will" followed by "I think" even thought there's a good chance the action is gonna happen in the future, right? (ACCORDING TO THE GENERAL GRAMMATICAL RULE) "Look! It feels like this guy's falling asleep. I think, he will fall off his chair." And there was also this sentence: "We (have) lunch at 12.30 pm." I was pretty damn sure it's "We're having lunch at 12.30pm" as we got a fixed arrangement here. But the correct answer eventually turned out to be "We have lunch at 12.30 pm" How so??? Geez, this stuff is so messed up😵‍💫

[@rachelsenglish]

Great questions! "Be going to" and "will" are both used to express future. There is no difference in meaning between the two. As for simple present, "We have lunch at 12:30pm," it can be used for future but it also expresses a habit or routine that occurs regularly. "When do you usually have lunch? We have lunch at 12:30pm." Versus, "When [are you going to/will you] have lunch (today/tomorrow/next week)? [We're having/We'll have lunch at 12:30pm.]

Can you teach how we can have Texas accent. Especially when we sing country? I am not talking about saying Y`all. I am talking about how you send the voice in the third tooth on the left side

[@rachelsenglish]

I'd choose a country music singer who could be your role model. Do imitation practice and sing along! Or find an actor who does the accent well, like Matthew Mcconaughey--he is a Texas native and has been in many western movies.
