The present generation is so lucky to get access to quality English for free like this one. When I was studying English in Thailand 50+ years ago, I had to go to British Council's library to borrow or read books in the library and borrow reel tapes to play in the booth: Press Play, Listen, Pause, Speaking, Play again. It was hard, but it worked. I did that 2-3 times a week for two years. The result was not bad, got a scholarship from Australia govt to study there in 1971.
Thanks for sharing your response, Kamol! Excellent writing. My only suggestion is, it's not necessary to capitalize each item after the colon besides the first letter if you choose. '...booth: press play, listen, pause, speak, play again...'. Hope this helps you!
I really enjoy your useful English lessons, not just this lesson, I have passed almost all English lessons which you offered to us. I can say that I have learnt a lot. I can say that is MY CUP OF TEA! At the very begining I said, Am I an idiot? I can not understand any English words. It was ALL GREEK TO ME! But now. I can say that I am able understand 80%. No, I am not satisfied. I have to be better. Thank you so much for your lessons you made a big effort. Thank you again Cheers. Ivan
