A good teacher is like a candle, it cousumes it self to light the way for others. I'm grateful that I'm your student. Love you Teacher Alex. 💌

[@PollyannaGomesdosSantos]

As always, another oustanding class! I do love all teachers from Engvid, and have been learning a lot from y'all! At the same time, you are, definitely, an excellent teacher and the one who teaches in a very concise and objective way. I really admire your teaching style, Alex! Thanks a million!

[@engvidAlex]

Thanks for sharing! I appreciate your kind feedback. 😊

[@riclou1910]

I'm getting used to living more and more like a minimalist and closer to Nature. More than a decade ago I left the race for the American dream of owning more and more, I started abandoning the consumerist habits of everyday life and worrying more about my physical and mental health, as well as our animal and plant relatives. I've improved a lot, but I can still go further! ; ) Thanks so much for this really useful lesson! Much appreciated!

[@KudryavyiLis]

Hello, Alex! I used to be with my family and friends every day. But I'm getting used to living alone in new country for two weeks already. It's hard for me but I'll be used to.

[@cocafernet6242]

I will get used to watching Alex's videos to learn English efficiently because it is proven that he is the best teacher on internet!

Thank you for this video Alex, you have no idea how much it clarified all my doubts about it.

[@ramirotirado3274]

Hello Alex, is very interesting and important the use of “ used to “ the first phrase I learned by myself was “ I can get used to “ and I never translated what it really means until listening frequently I realized what was it. So thanks and congratulations for your book. Nos miramos.

Hey, Alex! So, is it OK if I say "I was used to waking up this early"? It looks the same as if I'd say "I was accustomed to waking up this early". Right? Thanks and greetings from Mexico!

Yeah, that works if you’re talking about the past. :) If you want to move this into the present, you can say “I’m used to waking up this early.”
