Many students are afraid of speaking because they worry about vocabulary. Find easy ways to describe things. Here is a fun example of describing cheese!

The Social Evolutionary

How can you describe cheese?

Idioms are phrases or expressions with figurative meanings that differ from their literal meanings. They are often used to convey a message in a creative and humorous way. 
In this episode we will look at the following idioms:
1. 'Raining cats and dogs' - It is raining hard.
2. 'All ears' - I am listening.
3. 'Bite the bullet' - Do something uncomfortable.
4. 'Caught red handed' - Caught in the act of doing a crime.

Idioms are interesting and have an interesting history. They are entertaining and learned through exposure and use. If you like this podcast or have any suggestions please leave a comment. I would like to know your favorite idiom, let me know in the comments below :)

Quelques expressions avec "être" (deuxième partie)

Yesterday I did a podcast on "Birthday" and I came up with some questions for you to think about

What was the best birthday you ever had?
How old were you?
Who was there, who did you invite?
Did you have it at home? Did you cook?
or you had it in a restaurant/ cafe?
Why was it the best birthday for you?
What feelings, emotions did you experience?
What were the gifts you were given?
Which one was the best one?
Who was the most memorable person at the party?

Today I decided to answer it myself. 

I didn't prepare - I just told it how it is. 

I hope you'll get an idea that you don't have to be perfect when you are asked questions. You don't have to be X Y Z... You can just be you and enjoy it...

There is great in the mindset if you'll accept it through listening&agreeing with it.

To Your Success!
