general questions and then a few specific questions that I will be answering.

Many of you have asked how you can improve your listening and speaking skills.

I have chosen three questions to read out for you.

Ricardo says: "I need to understand when I watch a movie.

because I'm very embarrassed when I make mistakes while speaking.

"I live in an Arabic country and there is no-one near me who can speak English,

because I do believe that improving your listening will naturally improve your

Remember that English is not your mother tongue. You're learning it, and it's

to be making mistakes. So, have confidence.  Go out there and speak

As Ali says, sometimes, you may not have the opportunity in your immediate

In that case, I would strongly recommend that you find someone online to practise

or a private lesson with a teacher face-to-face or online,

Okay then, let's move on to some specific language questions.

I have chosen three questions about conditionals.

who says: "I was taught at university that there is actually a fith type of
