Are you wanting to learn how to speak clear and completely understandable American English so someone from the United States can really effortlessly understand you without assumptions or confusion? So you don't have to repeat yourself? Have you ever had a native English speaker from the United States watch and listen to you speak and let you know what mistakes you make by typing what they heard you say in written form then put a correction next to it in written form? Have you had them judge your mouth movement? Have you had them really focus on your letter sounds? Maybe you mis pronounce your short vowels. Have you been taught pronunciation from someone from the United States? Have you then had that person give you a lesson plan that would teach you letter sounds? A step by step formula/guide/lesson plan that would teach you letter sounds (short vowels, long vowels, letter blends)? If you're wanting to speak clear and completely understandable American English and you've never been taught letter sounds from someone from the United States then you may have learned the British form of pronunciation OR a mixture of American+(country where you're from) pronunciation. Start your journey to sounding more American today! It is possible! It is achievable! Check out my tutor profile. I offer pronunciation classes!

Who wants to sound like a native English speaker from the United States? Maybe you're wanting to visit the United States. Maybe you're wanting to move to the United States. Maybe you got a job in the United States and you want to be able to communicate with people in your new neighborhood. Or maybe you already live in the United States but were born in another country, but you want to learn how to sound more like you live here. You want to talk to people in the grocery store, book store and more! But your accent is bothering you. Have you ever had someone from the United States really judge your pronunciation? Really listen to all the sounds you make when you speak? Then let you know what letter sounds that you say wrong in American English? Then actually teach you how to say American English letter sounds clearly and correctly. So your nouns, vowels etc sound really clear and understandable. Not like.. 'Sort of like American English' but really American English. That way your listener knows exactly what you're saying without confusion, hesitation, assumptions, mis understanding. Wouldn't your listener appreciate that? Wouldn't that make the conversation more free flowing and more enjoyable? Check out my tutor profile and book a lesson of mine. I've been tutoring students around the world since 2018 to sound more American.

⏳ Talking about duration in Spanish In Spanish, we use HACE and DESDE HACE to talk about how long something has been happening. 🔹 HACE + cantidad de tiempo + que + verbo We use this structure to say when something started. Hace tres años que vivo en España. Hace dos horas que espero el autobús. 👉 The action started in the past and continues now. 🔹 DESDE HACE + cantidad de tiempo This structure focuses on the period of time until now. No veo a Carlos desde hace un año. Trabajo aquí desde hace cinco meses. 👉 Very common in spoken Spanish. 🧠 Easy rule Hace + time + que + verb Desde hace + time Both express duration up to the present. ⚠️ Common mistake ❌ Vivo aquí desde tres años. ✅ Vivo aquí desde hace tres años.
Which sentence is correct?
Vivo aquí desde tres años.
Hace tres años que vivo aquí.
Desde hace tres años que vivo aquí.
Hace tres años vivo aquí desde.

The Best English Learning App 2026 One of the most common mistakes, not only among beginners, is the endless search for the perfect app. Duolingo. Busuu. Memrise. Elsa. ChatGPT. And 100 more that promise to finally “fix” your English. People keep jumping from one to another. They spend time signing up, learning the interface, activating free trials, managing subscriptions… instead of actually learning the language. Here is the truth most marketers won’t tell you: the perfect app does not exist. No app will: – really hear how you speak – correct your pronunciation in real time – explain why you keep building sentences in your native-language logic – make you actually use English in real situations – or keep you consistent Apps are tools. Not a method. Not a system. And definitely not a solution. Most people are not stuck with English. They are stuck in the search for a magic button that will make learning easy, fast, and effortless. But it does not work that way. Results comes from: – a clear learning path – live practice – real feedback – and consistency Not from yet another app.
