I am mechanic , always work in a gragge fixing broken parts of cars. During my free time usaully at night i used to sit infront tv watching different programmes including the news. It wasn't untill a little while ago that it dawned on me to change my old habbits. Filling my free time at night to learn american accent. Although english grammer lessons are difficult to me i have to keep tring to understand. English conversation is not my cup of tea and i might pull it back for some other time . Idioms are the most important part for foreingers Using and practicing these idioms isnot rocket science we can try acting like a native. I am going to hange in and listen more lessons from your channel. Thank you.
You are such a great teacher. You videos for each Idiom made me understand and remember better. Thanks!

Do I have to paint a picture to tell you that Interactive English is very important for your English skills so you can look like a million bucks? So common get the ball rolling, put your eyes on the ball, trust me, when you keep hanging in there, you can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I know you're strugeling to make ends meet, but don't forget to study, cause when you do it, I tell you, you don't paint yourself into a corner, it seems hard, but there's always blessing in disguis. So, you better put your chin up. Break a leg my friends.
I always hang in there to use phrasal verb to improve my knowledge...

Buck- dollar Cost an arm an leg- something that is expensive Pony up- to pay money because it's is owned or one need to settle the debt Telling someone to do what you say To make ends meet- to earn enough money to live and meet your needs (To be) loaded -to say someone has a lot of money To look like a million bucks- to describe a person who looks nice and is elegantly dressed Ragd to riches-when someone goes from being poor to wealthy Bread and butter - the primary way a person earns a living Penny- pincher- a person who tries to save their money and is careful spending their money. Pick up the tab/ pick up the check- to pay for a bill To paint (oneself) into a corner- a situation in which there are no good outcomes A picture's is worth a thousand words -a complex idea can be expressed with one picture To paint the town red- to party and celebrate in a lively way. To see /look at the big picture - to examine and understand the entirety of a situation What's wrong with the picture - to sarcastically ask someone to identify the problem Do I have to paint you a picture?- what else must be done to make somebody understand. Something is like watching the paint dry-saying something is boring and takes a long time.
