Episode 109 💄7 Ways We Use the Phrase, “Make Up” in English Explained in Less Than Ten Minutes
🔥 Link for bonus credits on iTalki: https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1034504&u=2346050&m=70611&urllink=&afftrack=
In this video, I explain seven ways we use the phrase "make up" in English. Until Doctor Luke from Poland pointed it out, I never realized how complex the term, "make up" is in English. We use it for making our faces pretty; we use it when we make up work or time. We use it when we need to make up a bed. We use it when smaller parts make up a larger thing. For a few seconds, I also mention how we use "make up" sometimes and at other times, we use "made up."

Episode 104 I NEED TO QUARANTINE FOR FOURTEEN DAYS | SLOW ENGLISH SHORT STORY
In this English lesson I tell about how I came into contact with a colleague who tested positive for COVID. Because of this, I will need to quarantine for fourteen days, missing the first day of a new school year for the first time in my career. Teachers had only been back for a few days, and this happens. Students hadn't even arrived.
I also explain the English terms: jarring, "I know a guy," and "the unknowns." Thankfully, I am feeling really well. I think I was safe, but will keep you updated if things change.

Ep. 102 THIS TREE HAS BECOME DANGEROUS — ENGLISH WORDS AND PHRASES ABOUT TREES
🔷 Please rate and subscribe 🔷
For this podcast, I will teach you many English words and phrases we use when talking about trees. We actually use a Latin root "arbor" and a Greek root "dendro" when we talk about trees in English. I explain how insurance often works in the United States and why I do not cut down the dangerous tree in my yard myself. We also visit a arborist from a distance.
I also explain how to tell someone a Happy belated Birthday and how to tell them a Happy early Birthday.
