The English Student How To Root For Someone Meaning
I get a lot of my lesson ideas from my personal life. Although most of the time, I'm stuck in front of my computer writing, drawing, or handling business issues, these little things in life can still inspire some great English lessons! I like to bring real-life into teaching as I believe this is what makes learning more useful, easier to remember, and more authentic. A lot of the lessons you have come across were either inspired by your emails or my own life.

Mother's Day is just around the corner (Meaning: coming up quickly ; arriving soon) . For many of your around the world, this is a time to make your mother, or anyone in your life who is a "mother" figure, feel special by showering them with lots of love and attention. It's not too late to get a gift or plan something special, but if you're out of ideas, The English Student has made it easy for you with these Mother's Day Coupons that would surely make a mother's day. Give your mother one coupon or all of them! 

What is a coupon?
A coupon is a ticket, voucher, or document that allows you to exchange something in return. These may include a free gift or a discount on products. If you read the newspaper, you may remember seeing coupons. You would cut them out and take them into the store to redeem the offer. We receive a lot of mail-in coupons that fill up our mailbox every day. Sometimes the coupons may be handy (Meaning: useful, convenient) but most of the time, it's just clutter and goes straight for recycling.
As I always say, everything is an opportunity to learn. Use these coupons to learn new meanings. Let's go over a few of these:

Breakfast in bed:
Breakfast served in bed.

Dinner out:
Have dinner outside at a restaurant. If the dinner is "fancy" it means it's a more extravagant and expensive restaurant.

House cleaning:
This is pretty self explanatory. House cleaning usually involves cleaning around the house. These may also be known as "chores." Common chores: sweeping, mopping, doing laundry, washing dishes.

A Little Guide To Home Appliances

5/2/2016

The second Little Guide features another group of important words. This week we're learning about common appliances in our homes. Appliances are machines are devices that would usually require some electricity to work. These include things you use to cook with, clean with, or make food with. Think about all the appliances that you use or depend on every day:  a refrigerator to keep our food fresh, an air conditioner to keep us cool, a heater to keep us warm, a hairdryer to style our hair, a washer to clean our clothes. All these appliances make our lives so much easier by saving time and energy ( and can also make us lazier). At a store you might see a sign that says, "This Way to Home Appliances." You'd most likely find the items below at that section of the store.

Not much explanations are needed of each item below as I'm sure you know what each one is just by looking at the images. This is why I love using visuals in teaching and learning - it's clear and very little explanations are needed.
