In this episode, I have a short interview with Tevfik, from Turkey, where we talk about his English journey and OET success via italki. We only had a short time for speaking and writing practice, yet, despite that, he passed and secured a grade B, enough to send him on his American fellowship journey!

Transcript for this and all my other episodes available at my podcast site.

Frases para o uso de meios de transporte em Português

Hello, everyone! This is Kate.

Welcome to my podcast. Today we are going to study one very interesting and important grammar, which is gonna help you to sound like a native speaker.

Ready?-Let’s go!


Okay, imagine that you need to go to the hairdressers. Your hair is long and obviously it’s time to do something with it. How would you tell this to your companion?  

“I’m gonna cut my hair?”, but you are not doing it yourself, so, there is a better option.

If you are getting some services, there is a construction which simplifies everything.

To have something done.

Listen to my examples:

I have my hair cut every month.
I’m having my hair cut right now.
I’ve decided. I will have my hair cut!

The verb have is used like any other verb and it follows all the rules.

Present simple: I have my windows cleaned every week. Someone cleans them for me.
Present Perfect: I have just had my dinner cooked. Someone cooked it for me.
Past Continuous: I was having my homework checked yesterday.


You see, it’s super easy and handy!


Practise yourself, here are some sentences in the description below:

I didn't cook my dinner myself. Someone prepared it for me.
I usually don't clean the windows by myself.
I have never cut my hair myself
I will not fix my car. My dad will do it for me.
I won’t check my blood pressure myself.

Places in Town|Posti in città

Je vous invite aujourd'hui à Versailles, la ville de prédilection du roi soleil. Jean de la Fontaine, Molière, Lully, tous peuvent témoigner de la générosité de Louis XIV, tout comme de sa colère ! Cette ville est aujourd'hui une source d'inspiration pour de nombreux artistes : 
- Kamel Ouali et sa comédie musicale, Le Roi soleil 
- Gérard Corbiau et son film, Le Roi danse 
- Le mois Molière, un festival de théâtre et de danse versaillais 
C'est aussi un haut lieu diplomatique. Emmanuel Macron a jeté son dévolu sur la galerie des batailles du château pour recevoir le président russe, Vladimir Poutine en 2017. 
Enfin, Versailles est souvent associé à la bourgeoisie française, j'ai donc profité de cette opportunité pour vous partager l'art de la table à la française, bon appétit ! 
Plats français de l'épisode :
- Côtes de Nuits Village du Domaine Petitot, le vin préféré du roi soleil
- La fleur bleue, le fromage de la ferme de la Tremblaye
- Potage aux cailles et aux petits pois
