COMPARISON WITH NEARLY
|
|
Hi all, I´ve got a question regarding NEARLY in comparisons. in the following sentence, what should I use "nearly" or "not nearly"? "Statistically earthquakes are a bit more dangerous than wildfires" NEARLY "Statistically wildfires are .......................as dangerous as earthquakes" To rephrase the sentence I´ve written: "Statistically, wildfires are NOT NEARLY as dangerous as earthquakes" but the key says my try is wrong. the correct rephrased sentence is "Statistically, wildfires are NEARLY as dangerous as earthquakes". What do you think? |

Hello Once Again from a Long, but not Lost Member!
|
|
Hello everybody,
Quite possibly, a few of you might remember me - or not lol, but for many of you, I am probably just a name among the many whose worksheets you have, perhaps, downloaded in the past. In short, I used to be quite active on the site. However, I was taken down other paths in life and stopped doing ESL work. That said, I never really stopped loving creating ESL material and other useful worksheets and activities. (It turns out my passion was just placed on hiatus until I could return to it... although it was quite a long hiatus admittedly! lol)
This message today is partly to say hi once again, and introduce myself to everyone on the site, or more specifically, to reintroduce myself to a place I once called home.
It�s also to inform people that I am back and any worksheets that have been uploaded are actually mine, they are not stolen or "borrowed", and that I�m also posting my worksheets on another sister website that many of you are probably members of as well.
That said, I simply want to say I look forward to interacting more often, chatting, and contributing more worksheets and other activities in the near future.
Big hugs to everybody, and Merry Christmas in advance since the big day is just under two weeks and I know life can be hectic at this time of year!

Hi everybody!
Challenge is both a countable and uncountable noun. I wonder when it is a countable and when uncountable. Please help me with this.
Many thanks.

Looking for Penfriends!
|
Dear colleagues,
I am an English teacher at a middle school in Tunisia, currently seeking international pen friends for my 7th-grade students. The students, aged 11 to 13, are beginners in English and eager to develop their language skills through meaningful exchanges. They are enthusiastic about connecting with peers from around the world to share insights about their town and culture while learning about others in return.
If your students are interested in fostering friendships, exchanging letters, or collaborating on cultural projects, we would love to hear from you! |

Great opportunity for school drama clubs
|
|
Hello,
I am looking for a primary school located anywhere in the UK that has a great drama club and is interested in providing its students with hands-on experience in creating real-life educational videos.
I am an ESL editor at Fraus-Klett nakladatelství, a leading educational publishing house in the Czech Republic. We are developing a new English course book specifically designed for Czech primary school children aged 11 to 15.
I would very much appreciate any help or advice you could give me.

movies that are free to watch on you tube
|
|
Hello! I try to find movies that my students can watch on youtube for free. Has anyone got a list or a link where I could find such material? It should be suitable for students between 13 to 15. I want them to write film reviews and as not all of my students have access to netflix, I�m looking for a free source. Thanks for helping me! Christine |

Hi my colleagues! Please help me choose the correct answer! The more concrete information you can include, the better. As far as possible, provide measurements of what you accomplished. If any innovations you introduced saved the organization money, how much did they save? If you found a way of increasing productivity, by what percentage did you increase it? Question: The word "it" at the end of the passage refers to ___. A. government money B. information C. productivity D. percentage Thanks a lot. Qui |

Like + gerund + tiny fishing: Focuses on enjoyment. Like + to + verb: Focuses on preference or habit, even if not always enjoyable.

FCE Students struggling with Reading
|
Hi there, I teach online and have lots of problems with my intermediate students who just aren�t doing their tasks unless the tasks are easy. They especially avoid doing their readings. I asked one of my students, who really is a good kid, why he wasn�t doing his work and he told me frankly that he doesn�t like the readings. They’re difficult and boring for him. I�ve read that here in Peru, reading habits and reading comprehension are really low. I know my students aren�t reading in Spanish and getting them to read long exercises in English really is a challenge. Anyone have any advice for me? Would really appreciate it. Many thanks, Esther

Thanks everyone for your wonderful comments! I�ve decided to go ahead and make some materials for my students. I�m making a powerpoint which has tips on pre-reading strategies, dealing with long sentences, identifiying referents. I�ve been putting corresponding worksheets on liveworksheets if you�re interested. I might upload the powerpoint here if it turns out okay, but it�s very long. Wel�ll see. Thanks again everyone. A big hug from Peru,  Esther |
