Hi Bob the Canadian here welcome to this video.

Past simple

I thought today I would do a little bit of a different sort of video.

Gerund

I was actually not feeling well today and I wasn't going to make a video.

I ended up staying home from work sick today.

I had a sore throat and just a bad headache and a stuffed up nose.

But I had a nap, a really long nap, and I feel a bit better and I had some throat lozenges

So I thought, when I was thinking about how I was feeling it made me wonder how all of

Not in terms of whether you're sick or not, but I was wondering how all of you are feeling

How, I was wondering how it was going for you learning English.

I know from having learned French that learning a language is a difficult, difficult thing

In fact sometimes you'll see videos or, or books that promise that you can learn English

in 30 minutes or learn English in 5 minutes a day, be fluent in 30 days, and we all know

So I just was really thinking about all of you and wondering how things are going.

So I thought in this video I would ask some questions and I'm gonna ask that you answer

First questions is just, "How is it going?", like do you feel like you're making a lot

I know a lot of you spend a great deal of time outside of Youtube, outside of my videos

So I'm just curious, like, is it going really good?

Just give me a general sense of how it's going learning English because I, I am curious,

I want all of you to succeed at this, this incredible challenge that you've taken on.

And then I have a few more questions,more specific questions.

So the first one would be, "What's the last thing that you read in English?"

So question, "What is the last thing that you read in English?"

So maybe the last thing you read was a newspaper.

Maybe the last thing you read was a recipe card, you made, you made something in the

Maybe the last thing you read was a webpage or a news article online.

Maybe some of you have read an entire book in English, that would be really cool.

Again, as most of you know, I respond to every comment eventually, so let me know below what

And then a follow up question would be, "What's the last thing that you watched?"

What's the last thing you watched in English.

Did you find the time to go see a film in English?

Did you find a television show and watch a number of episodes in English?

Again let me know below what is the last thing that you watched in English.

Maybe the last thing you watched was a Youtube video.

But whatever it is, let me know, so what was the last thing you watched.

And then, the next question, "What was the last thing you listened to in English?"

Maybe you just listened to people talking in English.

Or maybe you have a favourite song that you have been listening to recently.

What was the last thing that you listened to in English.

And as we do this I think it will help people, 'cuz you'll see people comment about a certain

song, an English song that they really like, and other people can look at that, or someone

might say, "You know I found a really good website where they have the news in English

And then here's, it gets more difficult right?

What's the last thing you've written in English?

So maybe you've written a comment below, I know a lot of you do that, and I do appreciate

Maybe you wrote a short email to someone.

Maybe you have a friend where you text to them in English.

Maybe you wrote a entire letter to someone in English, that would be really cool.

Or maybe you're in a class right now and one of the pieces of homework that you had to do

And then here's the big one, right, here's the big one.

When's the last time you spoke English and how did it go?

Maybe the last time you spoke English was just by yourself in the car.

I know I've recommended that a number of times that the easiest way to speak a foreign language

But maybe you had an actual conversation, maybe you have a speaking partner, let us

know below, that you meet with online via Skype of Facetime.

Maybe you have a friend in the city you live in who is helping you learn English and you

were able to have a conversation with them.

But yeah, let us know, when is the last time you spoke English?

So and then there's bigger questions right, like:

Have some of you found a local place you can go to where you can actually take an English

Maybe some of you have found an online course and you're taking that.

Let us know how that's going as well and what you're experience is there.

I'm just really curious because my goal in doing Youtube channel is to just help you

I don't have any dreams of doing anything more than making a video once a week and doing

And I know that helps a lot of you, but I'm just curious what else all of you are doing

And then the last questions is a lot like the very first question.
