In this episode, I tackle those three little words that often drive English Language Learners crazy: at, on, and in. Since many languages don't have the same prepositions, their usage rules can be particularly confusing. I'll explain a simple way to remember how to use them, and provide clear examples to help you understand their application. I hope you find this episode helpful and that it gets you closer to mastering these commonly confusing words.

If you're interested in a personalized, task-based approach to achieving your language learning goals, please contact me through the link below. I’d be delighted to send you a needs analysis, discuss your goals, and support you on your journey to success!
