VIP Class Notes (Joe)

Homework

Do some writing and focus on the grammar you learned in class today.

Write sentences about people you see in TV shows. Make sure you only use the topical subject once. For example, say ‘The girl is beautiful’ instead of ‘The girl she is beautiful’. After you have written the sentences you must practice saying them as the problem is in the mouth and not the brain.

Grammar

I think there are not too much good movies recently
I don’t think there are too many good movies these days
Use ‘I don’t think’ if you have the opinion that something is lacking.
Use ‘much’ with uncountable nouns. Use ‘many’ with uncountable nouns.
Use ‘these days’  to describe the present and use ‘recently’ to describe the past.

She killed the man
She accidentally killed the man.
Using the adverb here shows the meaning more clearly.
