I have watched almost all the other somewhat bigger english learning channels that have millions of followers but I think yours is the best. I really enjoy watching your videos maybe because of your sense of humor and the examples that you give to explain what is being taught.
Wow, thank you! I really appreciate it. 👍
@@InteractiveEng Another great thing about this channel is that you have replied to my comment on a video that was posted 2 months ago..
Agree 👍. I'm a big fan of Wes' vocabulary lessons, including idioms and phrases. He is a very undervalued teacher on CZcams.
Your lessons are mesmerizing!
Excellent. Glad you enjoyed the lesson. Thanks for commenting. 😃
This video is way to under rated, Including his CZcams Channel, but this helped me a lot!
Thank you.
I’m really grateful for this class. I’ve read some novels to improve my English. However there have been lots of words that I think I can understand the meaning of, but still they are not mine as they are intangible. I’v never been to any English speaking countries and understanding something and feeling it is quite different. It’s like your class builds a bridge between the gaps. Thanks a lot.
Thanks for commenting & sharing with us. 👍
Dang! Your written English is much better than I, living in USA 30 years, including collegiate life. You should be proud of.
Excellent Wes !!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for your comment. 😊

From Gustav: Vicki was reading me book by Stephen King and just one page has so many new words and idioms. I have to need Vicki there telling me what they mean. Now I am super interested for this story. Vicki said Stephen King is super descriptive. Sometimes he even breaks grammar rules.
Vicki disagrees that 'uncanny' is a word you get from looking at a person but she added that she's legally blind. She doesn't "get" adjectives of sight unless she's 10 feel away from it.
She thought uncanny was an "atmosphere" or word she gets from listening.
She wishes she coold see what others see.
Hey Gustav. Thanks for checking out the lesson. And yes, Steven King is a very descriptive writer. I sympathize with Vicki's eyesight. Mine is pretty bad but Ioana's is borderline legally blind. I've always wanted to get laser surgery done but I still think it's a little expensive. Anyway, hope you learned some new words. 👍
