Making Sense of Nouns for Clearer, More Confident English


 

In a classroom, when the teacher asks, "What kind of word is this?", it is not uncommon for there to be a gap, a moment of silence, before learners are able to stop their thoughts, take a closer look and recognise language form.

An analogy: imagine walking past or being within a beautiful building. You admire its beauty, but you might also wonder what its different parts are made of and how it was put together.

When it comes to language, if we want to become more fluent and confident, we must also stop, examine and ask ourselves: what is this made of and how is it put together? 

The part of speech we call nouns are like the bricks, stones, wood or steel of construction. They are commonly the subject or the object of the communication, so in this week's video, we're reviewing nouns: what they are, how they work in English and why it is important to know.

The question of looking deeply isn't for everyone, but for those of you looking for more clarity, better understanding and a simple path towards bringing English to life in your own context and becoming more autonomous in the ways you develop your language skills, this is exactly how my program can help. 

Click on this calendar to book a call and learn what is keeping you stuck and the steps that will get you unstuck. It could be the best gift you've ever given yourself.

See you on Zoom!
