"Sometimes I feel like spoken English and written English are two different languages. I learned English in school from books, but I really struggle to understand what real native English speakers are saying. Help!"
- Michelle (one of my students)
I've heard things like this so many times. It's a real problem! Native English speakers don't only use the English you learned in school. We use many English idioms and native expressions, which makes it hard for English learners to understand things like movies and conversations.
"Why is it so hard to understand idioms?"
It's hard because it's cultural. The words that make up an idiom may tell you nothing about what the idiom actually means, and once you finally learn it, it's almost impossible to figure out how to use it in a real conversation.
If English is your second language and you've been frustrated by this feeling before, take this course. I made it for you! We will learn many of the most common English idioms and native expressions. We won't just learn what they mean; we will learn how to master them in all situations. We'll look at tons of real-life examples so that you can really get a feeling for how each idiom is used.
It's going to be fun. I hope to see you in the course!
