Starts today.
About this course
Learn how to talk about the things you enjoy (and the things you don’t!) by mastering the verb "Like." This program focuses on using the Simple Present tense to express personal preferences, habits, and general enjoyment. You will explore the nuanced grammatical difference between using "like" with a gerund (e.g., "I like swimming") versus an infinitive (e.g., "I like to swim"). To expand your conversational range, you will build a fun, diverse vocabulary covering animals, food, sports, and housing, while practicing demonstrative adjectives (this, that, these, those). Finally, you will improve your speaking fluidity by mastering Consonant+Vowel (C+V) overlapping, learning how to link words together naturally in rapid, everyday speech.

The Simple Present Tense of the verb ‘Like’
• Express general enjoyment of activities and specific habitual preferences (e.g., "I like reading" vs. "I like to read in the morning").
• Ask and answer questions about what other people enjoy doing, eating, or watching.
• Describe preferences for specific items using demonstrative adjectives ("I like this house" vs. "I don't like those animals").
• Talk about a wide range of topics, including animals, sports, and vacations, using a diverse vocabulary set.
• Speak more naturally by applying C+V overlapping, smoothly connecting consonant sounds at the end of a word to vowel sounds at the beginning of the next (e.g., "He likes animals").
