IELTS/TOEFL

Idioms and Phrasal Verbs can be very helpful tools in understanding a conversation and impressing the examiner of an IELTS or TOEFL test. Some common ones are: drop off, pull up, in the red, the black market, out of the blue. Which ones have you learned? Can you share a situation when you found them to be helpful? The more I teach the more aware I am of these phrases in conversation:-) Hope you do as well, as I can certainly understand how one can get confused.

What is your experience?

Have you ever been tongue-tied?
Tongue-tied is when you can't think of the words you want to say, or maybe being shy or embarrassed to speak. How do you cope with the situation, as a student, or a teacher?

There are some days that are better than others, and sometimes it depends on who is present in the conversation. Would you get tongue-tied speaking to the Royal Family, an idol, a foreigner, not feeling confident about your abilities in speaking your second language?

Yoga and Men

Hi,

I am curious. In America men and women do yoga. In fact, it is recommended to do yoga for athletes. However, I live in VN now, and the men WILL NOT do yoga. I have seen two men in yoga classes. A Vietnamese friend once told me that it is not "a guy thing," it's only for women. What is it like in your country and how do you feel about it?
