Hi! I have been teaching English continuously and joyfully for the past 25 years. I need to say that your videos ,particularly those focusing on grammar,are an excellent,practical tool for learners who need thorough and to the point clarifications without being overloaded with rules and excessive theory.I show my students your "How to sound like a native speaker" videos for self -practice at home. They really love them! I highly recommend them to both students and teachers.Thank you!

[@priyanshupriyam5024]

Welcome, bitch.

[@everardoserrato5547]

Great videos Adam. Could you make one with the words on and in? I've been in America for 16 years and still get confused with those two words sometimes. I would truly appreciate if you explain the differences between those two words just like you did this video. Thank you.

[@opinionated5361]

Why have three distinctions? The difference is simple enough. "To" as an infinitive marker focuses on action verbs (buy, give, send). "For" is used to focus on objects (milk, this, file).

[@PaulaMurta]

thank you so much. We brazilian people have such a hard time at learning this lesson because in portuguese we just have one single word (para) that means both "to" and "for", so when I started studying english i kinda struggled trying to separate the two meanings. Thanks a lot, it was very useful :))

Nada a ver Paula Murta. - I did this for him. Fiz isso por ele. - I did this to him. Fiz isso pra ele. É diferente sim.

[@gilsantos2995]

Verdade ***** , mas isso é uma exceção isolada. 99% das vezes,é como ele mostrou nos primeiros exemplos e nos seguintes (to = para) e (for = por ou pelo,pela,pelos,pelas)

Would you make a video to explain the usage of article "the" when do we use it and when do we omitt it... From example above, may I say: I want to go to (the) store to buy (the) milk

[@earnspace]

Article "the" is used for specific things.

[@andreyp.5389]

Probably, it's interesting for beginners, but I expected explanation of another use cases like "Doesn't matter to (or for?) me" or "Looks good for (or to?) me". For me as for Russian it's not that clear, not sure about another foreigners though... Anyway, this lesson is very good and you're a great teacher. Clean pronounciation and simple sentences that's what learners need :)

how can i say this sentence To me the best way to learn english is watching your videos or For me the best way to learn english is watching your videos

"For me, the best way to learn English is by (or from) watching your videos."

I'm a native English speaker and the second is correct, but any other native English speaker or advanced esl learner will understand what you're saying perfectly fine ether way.

[@ferhatdemir6846]

I think the correct answer is should be this is important for me

[@svyatoslavboykiv398]

This is important FOR me

[@AlecsAvi]

Is the first "This is important to me" because you haven´t a verb, if you had "This is important for buy me a ..." is with "for" because you have a verb. Regards.

Maybe you could remind students to use -ing both after "I'm used to writing essays" and "This pen is used for writing essays". This way you could complement the explanation of the two values of TO that you hinted at at the beginning of the vid (this TO is not tecnically a preposition). Great work!
