Friday Night Photos

Recently we’ve been doing a lot of Friday night parties for our English language students. Last night was not unusual. You can check out the pictures by clicking here

The above picture is of one of my wonderful level 5 students “Cecilia” She’s wonderful and outgoing and is doing really well with her English.

I think the brick wall behind her just gives this picture a little something extra.

HOT NEWS & Telling Someone The Date

Here’s some HOT NEWS for all of you English students out there.

Coming soon (1st May) I shall be launching a redesign of my website and included in the redesign will be a comprehensive English language resource room called “English Tutor” - this will be a flash based website that will allow you to do quick 10 minute lessons related to different parts of learning English.

Here’s a quick sample

I have heard people saying the date like “I going away on the threeth of April” and the “twoth of May” To correct this … and to give you a quick hint of what is coming on my Re-designed website (launch date - 1st May 200 here is the correct way to say the date:

1 = First (as in the first of May)
2 = Second (as in the second of May)
3 = Third (as in the third of May)

numbers like 21, 22 and 23 are pronounced Twenty-first, twenty-second and twenty-third - and this is the same for the thirties.

I hope that you find this useful

The Origins of “Wassup”

One of the worst phrases to come in to the English language in recent years is the phrase “Wassup?”

This comes from the original phrase “what’s up?” - this phrase is a slang term and extremely informal and shouldn’t be used in a normal conversation and only with close friends.

To show you the origins of this terrible phrase see the original Budweiser TV commercial below.
