In today’s episode, we’re not just going to give you English tips-we’re going to equip you with the ultimate set of questions you should be asking your English teacher. Whether you're in a group class, a one-on-one session, or engaging with your teacher on an online platform, these questions are crucial for clarifying doubts, deepening your understanding, and accelerating your progress.

[@highlevellistening]

Thank you!

[@giselle_avila]

For me, was a little bit difficult to learn the difference between " wonder" and "Ask" is funny to remember my mistake at that moment when I needed to use "wonder" instead of "ask"

[@highlevellistening]

That's a good example! You could definitely ask your teacher: "What's the difference between 'wonder' and 'ask'? Is it the same thing?"

[@sanabokhari6807]

Could you give me more sentences structured? My sentences usually start with I don't, I can.

[@edsonsampaio5524]

Kat, gosto muito dos seus vídeos e seu método de ensino. Já assisti a todos os seus vídeos solo, acredito, porque meu intuito é o inglês americano. Se fugir do seu projeto é, se possível , gostaria que gravasse mais vídeos sozinha. Se tem um melhor aproveitamento pois foca no objetivo de quem estuda inglês americano. Obrigado.

[@highlevellistening]

We have lots of American videos in the intermediate section! I hope you enjoy them :)

Yes! You can get it in the description and here: www.highlevellistening.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/English-Questions-Cheat-Sheet-2.pdf

[@AmeraAlawer]

When will I stop being obsessed of ENGLISH ? The answer is NEVER . Speaking of which , Is my question grammatically correct ?

[@highlevellistening]

Almost! The correct grammar would be: "When will I stop being obsessed with English?" We hope it's never too! 🙏

[@carolinaelias7321]

Thanks for joining us in class!

[@barezzakarya3232]

or " could You write it down in the comments?" If you had an online teacher and wanted to ask about the spelling of a word.

[@highlevellistening]

Oo great suggestion and great question!

[@thatzinwin-ne1ib]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂

[@highlevellistening]

Thanks for watching!

[@phuchoang3290]

Can you explain to me ""what do you mean by went over to my friend's house?" not ""what do you mean by going over to my friend's house?"

[@highlevellistening]

The idea is to repeat or quote exactly what someone / your teacher just said. If your teacher said: "So yesterday I went over to my friend's house.." You could say: "Sorry, what do you mean by 'went over'?" It's not necessary to change the grammar to make the question. Hope that helps!

[@phuchoang3290]

@@highlevellistening Oh, I get it now, thanks.

[@yutimleung3765]

Hi Thank you for your aptly explanation on English usage. I was wondering if I can say " what does it mean by "a word"?" as well.

[@highlevellistening]

You're very welcome! In regards to your question, the phrase I would use is: "What do [you] mean by [x]?" This is a great question to get the definition of a word from your teacher, or anyone! Hope that helps!

[@KyawZin-t2m]

Amazing question tips. I am often used to say mistakenly that Can you say that again and Could you say that again.

[@highlevellistening]

We're really glad it helped! Once you get confident with these questions, you will be asking them all the time ;)

[@gaiizaab]

thank you all of you both. I've been learning English on Itlaki. I usually have a problem about How to ask my teacher when I don't understand the lesson. so your video make me more confident!!! than you so much .

[@highlevellistening]

Yesss! That's perfect! You're exactly who we wanted to help :) Remember you can get the PDF 'Cheat Sheet' with all the phrases and question on it, so you can have that open during your italki class and use it to help you! www.highlevellistening.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/English-Questions-Cheat-Sheet-2.pdf

Great

[@highlevellistening]

Thanks for watching!

[@serenella_mele]

"Can I say", or "May I say", or "Could I say"? Which is the difference between them? Thank you

[@highlevellistening]

Can is the ability to do something Could is a more polite version and also the version we use for the future May is asking permission but we don’t use it as often in casual speaking since it feels like we’re at school when we say “may I” Hope that helps!

[@claudiabautista4165]

Mark, Kat , you’re so professional, so respectful , so committed to your channel ..always so enthusiastic…I LOVE your channel ! It’s so good you don’t have any video that I’ know of where you look down on non native English teachers like “Profe Lao” does in many of her videos I’ve watched …thank you !! We may not have all the answers for our students questions sometimes but by watching your videos we can always learn something new we can teach our students! Thank you !!❤

[@highlevellistening]

Thanks so much for your lovely message! We're really glad you've been enjoying our videos and our style of teaching! We definitely not into gate-keeping the language, there's a hundred different ways to say one thing in English, and we don't want to discourage that!

[@renatorondon5471]

Wow 😮 that class
