Highly effective and an upper crest to use those 7 phrases, to take English language to a different level, in the explained scenarios. Thank you very much indeed, you both (Laila and Sabrah) are one of the best in the world, to teach English language. God bless to both.
Hi! Leila.You're so elegant in your expression as well as personality that I wish your video never stopped.That's because,you are beauty with brain. I really fancy going for a candle light dinner with Leila at an Italian restaurant in Scotland. I'll kill for a gondola ride with Leila in Venice. I'm dying for a conversation with Leila. I'm up for any tips to learn this beautiful language from Leila
When Italian kids say "I want..." , adults tell them "the herb 'want' doesn't even grow inside the king's garden" 😉 They're taught to use "I'd like" instead, for example
oh my GOD ! It is great work by you. I do really appreciate the way you explain,nice way with examples and explanation. It is incredible. Thank you so much with great respect.All the best wishes.
Your lessons are packed with useful content and you make them really enjoyable. Nice clarity of speech and lovely accent. I'd give you a double thumb up if it was possible. Don't give up.

Do you have any preference? Using "go" to replace "I want" -- I'm gonna "go" with that Avocado -kiwi-parsley smoothie; OR I'll give this 2000 calorie burger a "go", I mean why not? yolo (You Only Live Once haha) . Teacher is this alright to use too?

"I would like it if ...". "It would be nice if ...". "Can you ...". "If you could ...". In the US most people just say "Give me a coffee". No-one says "please" any more.
