- This is one of those grammar points that drive people crazy. You learn a rule in school e.g. to + infinitive, and later you learn there are exceptions to this rule e.g. look forward to + ....ing. This is the reason why "look forward to" causes so many problems and drives people crazy. But, there's no need to go crazy. Just watch this video and find out all about "look forward to".

Thank you.really helpful

Hey! Thanks for this, and what about just "Looking Forward" without using to? What it means?
Hi Neil, thank you for this video - very helpful indeed! I've been living in the UK for quite a few years now and I can see the difference between look forward to and looking forward to when it comes to a planned event being discussed in informal conversations or e-mails. However, I often notice that in formal e-mails people still use "I look forward to" rather than "I am looking forward to", say, our next meeting (even though this is a planned event). I might be wrong though or perhaps the rule (or shall I say the norm?) is slightly different in formal conversations/e-mails? Thank you :)
Thanks much!
Is looking forward to also used for past?
I was looking forward to celebrating the festival.
Thank you 😀
You're welcome, Youssef.
Just 2 words: Excelent video!!!! Thanks so much
It would be helpful and beneficial for Deaf/Hard of Hearing students (middle school ages and up) to learn your English lesson WITH closed caption or subtitle.

cool, I'm learning english with you too, is better for me video in english , is challenging for me.
vividly discussed
Hello, can i say ,I'm looking forward without verb??
sir; what is the difference between these two sentences:
1. i am looking forward to the visit of my relatives.
2. i am looking forward to visiting my children.
i am a little confused with the first one as to who is doing the visit.
Hello John. In sentence 1 "the visit of" means that your relatives will visit you. In sentence 2 "looking forward to visiting" means that you will your children. I hope my explanation is clear.
👍
I have question " we look forward to hearing from you" in my onboarding form ....what should I rply in answer plz help I just can't understand what to rply them
I'm looking forward to teaching you and interacting with you...is this sentence correct?
How about "looking forward to it" ?
Like!
And if I have no friends? What should I say?
Deep purple heart of a few minutes ago to me you

That's not an exception, that's a verb pattern that is a common feature of the English grammar, as much as to+infinitive
Then, sentences like "I look forward to see you" or "I'm looking forward to see you" don't exist, right?
And If I write something like "I was looking forward to ..." The "was" makes it something I wanted but now I don't?
Sorry, I'm very unfamiliar with this.
difficult!!!
but easy
that's english lol
Which one is correct?
I'm happy to see you succeeding in Life or I'm happy to seeing you succeeding in Life?
I'm looking forward to speak fluent
Look forward to the day you become a fluent speaker of an English language!
Do you say "Looking forward to telling you how it goes" or "Looking forward to telling you how it went" for an event that still hasn't taken place but you're looking forward to telling the person about it.
I’m looking forward to getting in my bed tonight sarks & it’s only bloody monday😫 sweet dreams 😘😘😘

this dude has no idea what he is talking about .... it is a phrasal verb that uses the gerund because it must be followed by a noun... wakakakakakakakakakakakakaka... I look forward to not seeing anymore of your videos
