Coney Island 28:58

8h ago28:58

28:58

It’s uncommon to come across corners quite as quirky as Coney Island. It’s a hypnotic haven away from the hustle and bustle of the big city nearby. Nestled in a breath-taking bay in Brooklyn, it’s your best bet if you are looking for a beach far beyond any you’ve ever been to before. Join me, as we jump on the train on a quest to uncover unconventi…

Relationships 29:35

5d ago29:35

29:35

They are perhaps the most essential element in anyone's life. Without them we would be lonesome and our days would seem endless and daunting. Everyone needs someone to confide in, or share their fears and favorite moments with. Bonds form the fabric in the business world as well, as alliances and associations are what help a venture get off the gro…

Berlin 24:50

12d ago24:50

24:50

This bustling capital city is a contradiction in and of itself. It has a wealth of waterways, many museums, excellent eateries, larger than life clubs that seem to never close, and it's brimming with history due to its significance in both WW2 and The Cold War. They say New York never sleeps, but this spectacular place gives my pretty gritty city a…

English in Movies 25:30

25:30

Quiet on the set. We’re rolling. Lights, camera, action! Moving pictures have revolutionized the way we depict and pass down our stories. Furthermore, by recording them we have chronicled them so that they may live on forever, not only in our hearts and minds, but also on the silver screen. They’ve made us laugh, cry, cheer, and scream at the top o…

Crime 23:29

Freeze! You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can be used against you in court. You have the right to talk to a lawyer for advice before we ask you any questions. You have the right to have a lawyer with you during questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed for you before any questioning if you wish. If you de…

Sleep 30:09

30:09

Rise and shine sleepyhead. Time is of the essence so don't you dare dream about sleeping in. As we say, you snooze you lose. A new day is upon us and we are going to seize it and milk it to the very last minute. I must admit, I feel like a million bucks and it's all because I hit the hay early and I was out like a light. I got some shut-eye or fort…

Talent 25:53

25:53

Being born with a gift can be a blessing from above, but make no mistake about it, it’s also a substantial responsibility. In order to make the most of an aptitude one must learn to sharpen their skills and hone them, regardless of their raw talent. And most of all you have to work your tail off and break your back more the the next guy, if being t…

Trump 28:08

2M ago28:08

28:08

This lively loudmouth is loved by many and loathed by lots of others who suffer from TDS. When he’s perched upon the pulpit preaching his populism, he polarizes people all over the place, from Alabama to Almansa. But one thing is for sure, the mainstream media mentions him almost daily due to his sassy sound bites and his often controversial takes.…

Teeth 28:30

2M ago28:30

28:30

Our chompers not only help us chew when we chow down on our favorite foods but they also aid when we produce sounds and learn to speak. It’s no secret that oral hygiene is a matter of utmost importance in almost every society. And even though we try and avoid, it we need to visit our dentists regularly for a check up or a routine cleaning, and if y…

I’m hooked on English and I’ve told you that time after time. And to my students who don’t feel like doing anything, well, you’d better shape up.

These spectacular spires sometimes inspire us, and astound us while we stare in awe skyward at their sheer size. Ever since Otis invented the elevator the sky’s the limit when it comes to erecting these iconic towering structures. However, it wasn’t always easy, many lives have been lost and many lessons learned as we build our modern day towers of…

Drugs 27:53

4M ago27:53

27:53

These often illicit substances come in a variety of shapes and sizes. They can both cure us and kill us in the same breath. Popping pills can ease our pain, but one can get hooked, as some meds are heavily addictive. They can cause cravings, and even breed killer kingpins who commit crimes in the ugly underworld. Say hello to my little friend. We’l…

Tina Turner 25:28

Many say she’s simply the best, better than all the rest, better than anyone. One thing's for sure, her path to fame wasn’t easy, it was plagued with problems from the get-go. Nevertheless, she stood her ground and kept doing what she loved to do best: singing her heart out and shaking her moneymaker like it’s nobody’s business. Today we are rollin…

Dictators 26:00

4M ago26:00

26:00

These power hungry people have preyed on their own population in many cases. They are unelected tyrants who ran rigorous regimes, where dissent was met with torture and even death. As a society, the same question keeps coming back to haunt us. How did these so-called cults of personalties perpetrate terror, pain, and suffering for so long? We’ll de…

Fire 25:01

This essential earth element can bring us both life and death in the same breath.

English at Home 26:29

5M ago26:29

26:29

They say there’s no place like it and it’s where the heart is. It can both a physical place and an obscure concept. In its walls we have everything we’ve ever owned and needed, yet we are always adding to it. We eat, sleep, play, bathe, and even move our bowels in our humble abodes. What would we do without our nest, or a roof over our heads to she…

Rolling Stones 26:26

5M ago26:26

26:26

These raucous rock n' roll rebels are living proof that this defiant style of music is a direct descendant of the blues. Their band's name even comes from a classic Muddy Waters song, and its also an age-old adage in English: a rolling stone gathers no moss. Please allow me to introduce this group, they're a band of wealth and taste. We can get som…

Hair 26:13

26:13

This essential stuff can describe our style and even give strangers signals about us subconsciously. Even though it falls out frequently, we still have to strive to keep it clean, shiny and in tip top shape. So we shampoo it, condition it, brush it, trim it, dye it and even blow dry it so we look as sharp as can be. When we get it cut we suddenly f…

I’ve been teaching English to Spanish speakers for over 20 years now, and I’ve noticed some of the same issues come up over and over again.
