Prepositions in English can be hard! In today's episode, I break down the different ways we use "for" and "to" to give meaning to sentences. For example, in the sentence, "I am giving this gift to you for your friend!", do you know why I use both "for" and "to"? This is one of many examples I give to you in this episode! You only need 7 minutes to improve your English with today's episode!

If you’ve listened to my previous podcasts, you’ll know that want to score a band score 7 in your IELTS Speaking exam, you have to use some less common idiomatic expressions.

We all know the idiom ‘it’s raining cats and dogs’ because this is a common idiom. But what are some less common idioms?

This podcast will give you 3 more idioms for you to learn, which you can use in your IELTS Speaking exam.

Preparing for exams can be a double-edged sword. This is because examiners don’t want you to memorise and repeat your answers from memory. However, using idioms can get you a higher band score. So how do we balance this? Idioms have to be memorised, because they have to be spoken exactly. We cannot change them. For example, you cannot say ‘my parents punched the roof’, you have to say my parents ‘hit the roof.’

Another tip for using idioms is not to put all your eggs in one basket. Make sure you are armed with a variety of different idioms in your memory bank. If you only know one idiom, for example ‘think outside the box’ you have to hope your part 2 speaking exam is a suitable topic for the idiom.

You can, of course, use idioms in parts  1 and 3, but part 2 is the easiest place to slot in a few idioms, because you have 1 minute to prepare.

Don’t forget to book a lesson with me, so you can practise using idioms, and get the band score you are aiming for.

"After 5" by Japanese Teacher

“Is it true that someone who are good at their job quickly reply?”「仕事ができる人ほど｢メール返信が早い｣は本当か」

Todo el mundo sabe que los actores son personas supersticiosas. Una de esas supersticiones es que no les gusta que las personas les desean suerte, entonces…. ¿Qué cosas deseamos a los actores? Les deseamos mucha mierda, y en el episodio de hoy te cuento el origen de esa expresión, a la vez que te comento algunas otras cosas que los actores de teatro no hacen nunca.

Espero que disfrutes el episodio.

Después de escucharlo, no te olvides de dejarle una valoración y de pasarte por mi Instagram para contarme qué piensas de este episodio, ¿conocías estas supersticiones de los artistas? ¿Conoces alguna otra?
