Let's start by practicing possessives!
Possessive adjectives
my, your, his, her, its, our, their
What is your favorite Western food? (my)
Our class starts at 9:10pm on weeknights.
Our English goes from 9:10pm to 10:10pm on weeknights.
But if we just say "starts at" we use "at"
Not bad... but let's just focus on "starts at" for now.
Last question:
What is your parent's favorite thing to do for fun? (their)
Their favorite thing to do for fun is garden. (garden is a verb)
Their favorite thing to do is talk to each other.
Still room for improvement, but not bad
How about questions with "to be" ....
Are you interested in science?
"to be" is the verb...
I am, you are, he or she is, they are..
Question 2: Are your co-workers friendly?
Yes, they are. They are friendly and helpful.
(or whatever you want to say..)
No, they aren't. They're all terrible people.
Question: How do people in Japan greet each other?
Not bad... "with a bow"
or "by bowing"
Question 3: How do people in France greet each other?
Probably better to say "with a kiss on the cheek" or "by kissing on the cheek"
"People in France greet each other by kissing on the cheek."
Question 4: How should you answer me if I ask you, "How it going?"
First and last one are OK. "I'm pretty nice" isn't great though
I'm pretty nice means ... my personality is friendly
Haha... different meaning
Let's practice pronouncing some names
George
Emily
Michael
This one is a boy name
Michelle is the girl name
Michael is for boys
And the last one: Jane
Okay ... let's move on.
Question 5: Tell me 3 terrible jobs. Then tell me why one of them is terrible.
Nurse, construction worker, and taxi driver.
"The salary they get is very low"
or "They get a low salary"
Seems like everyone thinks that construction worker is the worst job!
Question 6: Tell me 3 profitable jobs.
I'm not sure that the jobs in the arts are considered "profitable jobs"!!!
Dancer, artist, actor or actress...
99.9% of those people are very poor
The stars have lots of fans
Profitable jobs: doctor, lawyer, banker, stock broker, businessman
Question 7: What does a chef do? Where does he do it?
"A chef cooks great food for guests in a restaurant or a hotel."
Question 8: What does a dentist do?
A dentist cares for patient's teeth/fixes teeth
Most just care for patient's teeth.. or "fix patient's teeth"
Dentists take care of patient's deeth in a clinic.
Last question!
When do you leave for work in the morning?
I leave for work at 7:25 in the morning.
Time really flies when reviewing
Because we go quick
