Language immersion is the best way to learn a new language. - What is language immersion? It is the most natural way to learn a language. You simply need to surround yourself with your target language, in this case, English. Ideally, that means moving to a country where people speak the language you are learning. In most cases, this is not possible. Don't worry, there are other things you can do. For example, spend at least an hour every day listening to or watching something in English. This is where our resources can help you, Please note that our videos are not organised according to the level of difficulty , as we believe that the best way to develop resilience and immerse yourself in another language is to listen to it in its most natural form. That means, that you will hear some easy but also some difficult vocabulary too. This is to help you build resilience! Remember, you want to become a resilient English speaker, and you can do it. All you need is a bit of time a self-confidence. The exercises below are best suited to aspiring advanced-level learners, currently at upper-intermediate, or even B1-plus level.

Talking about the future 1. Future tense (will) Uses of the Future Simple Tense ("will") The future simple tense is formed with the auxiliary verb "will" + the base form of the verb. It is commonly used to talk about future events or actions that are not predetermined. Below are the primary uses, along with examples: 1. Predictions About the Future Use the future simple to make predictions about things that might happen in the future. These predictions are often based on opinions, experiences, or evidence. Structure: Subject + will + base verb Examples: It will rain tomorrow. I think she will win the competition. The economy will improve next year. 2. Spontaneous Decisions We use the future simple for decisions made at the moment of speaking, without prior planning. Structure: Subject + will + base verb Examples: I’m thirsty. I’ll get some water. Wait a second; I’ll help you carry those bags. Someone’s at the door. I’ll answer it. 3. Promises, Offers, and Threats We use "will" to express promises, offers to help, or warnings/threats. Structure: Subject + will + base verb Examples: Promises: I will always love you. I’ll call you as soon as I get home. Offers: I’ll help you with your homework. We’ll drive you to the station if you want. Threats: If you don’t stop, I’ll tell the teacher. He’ll regret it if he doesn’t apologise. 4. Facts or Certainty About the Future Sometimes, "will" is used to state future facts or things that are expected to happen. Examples: The sun will rise at 6:30 tomorrow. Christmas will fall on a Monday this year. 5. Formal or Polite Requests (Less Common) "Will" can also be used in polite or formal requests. Examples: Will you help me with this task? Will you be able to attend the meeting? Differences from Other Future Forms "Will" vs. "Going to": "Will" is used for decisions made on the spot, while "going to" is used for plans or intentions. Example: Will: I’ll call her right now. Going to: I’m going to call her tomorrow. "Will" vs. Present Continuous for Future: Present continuous is used for arrangements or definite plans. Example: Will: I’ll meet him later. Present Continuous: I’m meeting him at 5 p.m. Future Simple Tense 2. Intentions, plans, and predictions based on evidence—going to 3. Arrangements, fixed future plans—present continuous 4. Using the Present Simple for Timetables and Schedules 5. Future continuous tense 6. Actions completed before a future time: Future perfect simple 7. Ongoing actions up until a future point: Future perfect continuous 8. Actions happening immediately—be about to Talking about the future: recap Talking about future - exercises

Reading Skills Reading skills are important, whether you intend to take a language test, or you need to use English at work or for travelling. To improve your reading skills, you should read as much as possible. It is best to follow your heart and choose topics that interest you. If you like travelling, why not find some travel blogs?

Most texts are between B1 and C1 levels CEFR (Intermediate to advanced), but don't let that discourage you when you find a word you do not understand. Try to read the text before and after that word.

For example, the Cambridge Online Dictionary - After reading, try to answer the questions. - Also, think about the topic you read. Say out loud or think (in your head) about what you liked or disliked about the article you read. - What is your opinion about the topic?
