About this course

Navigate everyday interactions by mastering the verb "Want" in the Simple Present tense. This program teaches you how to clearly express personal desires, ask others about their preferences, and make informal offers (like "Do you want some coffee?"). You will also learn the advanced structure of "want + object pronoun + to-infinitive" to express what you want someone else to do (e.g., "I want you to call me"). To support these conversations, you will build a practical vocabulary of food, drinks, and activities, while mastering the mechanics of uncountable nouns (using some, any, something, and anything). Finally, you will unlock a staple of casual American English by learning when and how to naturally reduce "want to" and "want a" into the informal "wanna."

What you'll learn

Students will learn the affirmative, negative, and interrogative structures of the verb "Want." They will master the complex structure for directing desires at others (using object pronouns), the correct usage of uncountable nouns for making offers, and the informal conversational pronunciation reduction of "wanna."
