Do you know the difference? Which one is correct here? We have to be ______ for class every day. We need to arrive ______ to take attendance every day. . . . . . #esl #English #englishteacher #speaking #onlineclasses #fluency #pronunciation #grammar #instagrammar #talkintownenglish #idiomas #professora #inglés #falaringles #expressions #vocabulary #vocabulario #languagecoach #intime #ontime
Yes, I vote. No, I don't trust the system. I wanted to explain some of this political vocabulary for my students, but really, it's all about money! 💰🇺🇸💰 Do you agree? . . . . . #presidentsday #esl #English #englishteacher #speaking #onlineclasses #fluency #pronunciation #grammar #instagrammar #talkintownenglish #idiomas #professora #inglés #falaringles #expressions #vocabulary #vocabulario #languagecoach

Many of you know that non-count nouns like #stuff #information and #advice have no plural form...so why do we hear👂 an "s" after these words sometimes in spoken English? 🤔🤔🤔 The answer is: 🙋🏻 You are hearing a contracted form of the BE verb IS! My stuff's here = my stuff IS here in fast, spoken English. It is still NOT plural! Try not to confuse plurals with contractions. Hope this helps. 💛💙💚 #esl #English #englishteacher #speaking #onlineclasses #fluency #pronunciation #grammar #instagrammar #talkintownenglish #idiomas #professora #inglés #falaringles #expressions #vocabulary #vocabulario #languagecoach #contractions #plurals #spokenenglish #grammatica #tefl #toefl #ielts
Let's ask questions in the simple past! Often, students forget to use the #did auxiliary verb after Wh- questions. Can you form a few simple past questions from this chart? Give it a try! . . . . . #esl #English #englishteacher #speaking #onlineclasses #fluency #pronunciation #grammar #instagrammar #talkintownenglish #idiomas #professora #inglés #falaringles #expressions #vocabulary #vocabulario #languagecoach #simplepast
To and for are used differently. #To needs a base verb (infinitive) #For requires a noun or gerund (V+ing). Do you make #smoothies for your family? I do! 🍓🍌
Bike is a short word for #bicycle 🚲Do you ride a bike to work, to school, or for fun? . . . . .#esl #English #englishteacher #speaking #onlineclasses #fluency #pronunciation #grammar #instagrammar #talkintownenglish #idiomas #professora #inglés #falaringles #expressions #vocabulary #vocabulario #languagecoach

Use "wanna" instead of "want to", but be careful with he, she, it. Then you need to use "wantsta". . . . . . #esl #English #englishteacher #speaking #onlineclasses #fluency #pronunciation #grammar #instagrammar #talkintownenglish #idiomas #professora #inglés #falaringles #expressions #vocabulary #vocabulario #languagecoach #wanna
Discuss means "talk about" so you don't need to use #about after this verb. . . . . . #esl #English #englishteacher #speaking #onlineclasses #fluency #pronunciation #grammar #instagrammar #talkintownenglish #idiomas #professora #inglés #falaringles #expressions #vocabulary #vocabulario #languagecoach #discuss #conversation #speakingpractice
What's the difference between #say and #tell ❓ Tell requires an object pronoun after it. Me, you, him, her, us, them, my friend, etc... If you use a verb after the object pronoun, use an #infinitive Ex: I told my students to do their homework. . . . . #esl #English #englishteacher #speaking #onlineclasses #fluency #pronunciation #grammar #instagrammar #talkintownenglish #idiomas #professora #inglés #falaringles #expressions #vocabulary #vocabulario #languagecoach
Verbs like #give #send and #lend can be followed by an object pronoun!

These silly terms are often used by #children to describe their classmates. I'm sure you still know a few of these kinds of people!
