It seems, if there is a way to do explaining wrong, you will do it.
(a) you address learners who supposedly aren’t fluent in English by constantly SPEAKING, instead of showing auxiliary verb movements on the board with arrows and gestures. You try to be informally chatty, inserting native speaker’s idioms (of which you are not even aware) and then even attempting to joke – droning on and on and on.
Of course, you might claim that “classroom English” is as much part of the learning as anything else, but this kind of flowing chattiness basically presupposes the level of knowledge on the part of your students that is beyond the primitive topics like indirect questions
(b) you never bother to DEFINE what you are talking about. You start using “embedded” (i.e. employing a quirky and non-standard term) as if everyone in the world knows what the heck this is about.
(c) Instead of saying “while posing a question involves changing the word order, indirect questions do NOT neet that, therefore they are SIMPLER” – you introduce a psychological suggestion, you order your students to FAIL on the psychological level by telling them instead that NOT doing something is MORE COMPLEX !
When it rains, put on a raincoat. When it does not rain, it’s much more difficult, because you have first to put your coat on, and then take it off.
(d) Correct teaching means not demonstrating errors. Errors must remain strange, stick out because they are unfamiliar etc.
When you need to demonstrate an error, you must do it in the way that makes it distinct, different (by any means – erasing it, crossing it out putting it in a different place on the board, not alongside correct examples etc) The first thing you do in the course of your explanations is show the error side by side with the correct sentences, thus making the student remember them together – you again psychologically program him to fail later.
Urrrgh.

What about with asking questions in daily speech? For example:
What did she do?
What she did?
I know that the second question is grammatically incorrect but do people use that form of a question in daily speech?
morfik
Thank you, Rebecca!
The lesson was great!
yankhonskiy
I had answered with the wrong choice for the question 5 and 7 … i want to to understand if we have embedded question that mean we should late using (is , was or any personal pronouns ) in every cases or What ?

This is really helpful. Thanks for the lesson. But I still got one question about the embedded questions. If I wanna say for example “What would you do if your girlfriend slaps your face?” Is this sentence correct? Is the punctuation correct too? Thank you so much
Mavis
What would you do if your girlfriend slapped your face?
That’s the correct answer. My best to you.

I think it’s wrong to use a question mark in these questions.

Hi Mam ,
Thanks for the information ,
I have one question , after watching this video i realized that even in case of asking normal questions i construct in a different way .
lets take one question as example in above question
eg.what time is the movie?
i usually ask it like : What is the movie time ?
Is this correct ?
nits
I am also confused

thanks teacher i want to ask you their are problem in my speak when someone speak to me i understand but when i speak to him, he did not understand with me
abdirahman100
That’s why your pronunciation or intonation is wrong.
You have to study phonetics or have to imitate native speakers. That’s my own way to make my English better. Our teacher Rebeca will help us if it needs.

Hi Rebecca,
I have a question, can you explain little more about the usage of “would you happen to know”?

Hi Rebecca, thanks for the lesson. I have a doubt on question 9. The question reads “Do you know if your parents are at home?”
My doubt is not about the embedded question but about the words “at home”. Shouldn’t it just say: “home”? “Do you know if your parents are home?”
Thanks, best regards!

It seems, if there is a way to do explaining wrong, you will do it.
(a) you address learners who supposedly aren’t fluent in English by constantly SPEAKING, instead of showing auxiliary verb movements on the board with arrows and gestures. You try to be informally chatty, inserting native speaker’s idioms (of which you are not even aware) and then even attempting to joke – droning on and on and on.
Of course, you might claim that “classroom English” is as much part of the learning as anything else, but this kind of flowing chattiness basically presupposes the level of knowledge on the part of your students that is beyond the primitive topics like indirect questions
(b) you never bother to DEFINE what you are talking about. You start using “embedded” (i.e. employing a quirky and non-standard term) as if everyone in the world knows what the heck this is about.
(c) Instead of saying “while posing a question involves changing the word order, indirect questions do NOT neet that, therefore they are SIMPLER” – you introduce a psychological suggestion, you order your students to FAIL on the psychological level by telling them instead that NOT doing something is MORE COMPLEX !
When it rains, put on a raincoat. When it does not rain, it’s much more difficult, because you have first to put your coat on, and then take it off.
(d) Correct teaching means not demonstrating errors. Errors must remain strange, stick out because they are unfamiliar etc.
When you need to demonstrate an error, you must do it in the way that makes it distinct, different (by any means – erasing it, crossing it out putting it in a different place on the board, not alongside correct examples etc) The first thing you do in the course of your explanations is show the error side by side with the correct sentences, thus making the student remember them together – you again psychologically program him to fail later.

Yes, thank you Esther. I do love my work and my students. It has been a real honour to teach students of all ages from all over the world. My best wishes to you.

Thanks ms Rebecca I’m learning more and more with you.
Thanks Rebecca ,I really appreciate it.Thanks again for your time and efforts.my best wishes to you .have a good one.
Rebecca, thank you so much!
Thank you.
This is really helpful. Thanks for the lesson. But I still got one question about the embedded questions. If I wanna say for example “What would you do if your girlfriend slaps your face?” Is this sentence correct? Is the punctuation correct too? Thank you so much
What would you do if your girlfriend slapped your face?
That’s the correct answer. My best to you.
I think it’s wrong to use a question mark in these questions.
Miss Rebecca! Your class is very easy for understanding! Thank you very much!!

Hello! It’s nice lesson but i’ve one question, in your examples you’ve used only “to be”, so my question is: Can we use it with other verbs? For example: Would you happen to know when he studied? or Could you tell me when the cathedral was built?

Hi Mam ,
Thanks for the information ,
I have one question , after watching this video i realized that even in case of asking normal questions i construct in a different way .
lets take one question as example in above question
eg.what time is the movie?
i usually ask it like : What is the movie time ?
Is this correct ?
I am also confused
thanks a lot..
thanks teacher i want to ask you their are problem in my speak when someone speak to me i understand but when i speak to him, he did not understand with me
That’s why your pronunciation or intonation is wrong.
You have to study phonetics or have to imitate native speakers. That’s my own way to make my English better. Our teacher Rebeca will help us if it needs.
this lesson help me to understand how to make good idea and answer it. thank you cery much mam. :D
thank you Rebecca, it was a super lesson again :) All the best for you too :)
Thanks Rebecca.
This is great lesson.
Thank you for useful lesson :):):)
Can I speak to one of engvid’s teacher by skype or something another??????I want to speak to you naturally
This was the first time I heard ‘ embedded question’, although I had used such structure in my sentences earlier. Thank you.
Hi Rebecca,
I have a question, can you explain little more about the usage of “would you happen to know”?
Sometimes how to arrange the order of embedded question is confusing me.
so this video was helpful for English learner like me.
Please continue to make more and more videos and teach great and beautiful English to people all over the world.
I appreciate this act highly. Thank you.
Thanks a lot Rebecca! You do great job – clear and simple tutorial on a complex topic!
Thanks a lot Rebaca. I have a small problem to ask.
If I want to ask “Who is coming to the party tonight? as an embedded question it should be “Do you know who is coming to the party tonight.”
In here,I can’t see the order that you have mentioned in this video.So I’m bit confused.Could you please explain me it clearly. Thank You
Good job dear it was really excellent I was confused Thanks again and again dear bye bye
))
Ok, Rebecca, I got 90 % Thanks.
tsewwarndi, I think must,( If you whould like please me to explain this ) :”Do you know who coming to the party tonight is ? “. Isn’t it Rebecca ?
Thank you so much
Hello again Robecca thank you so much this is the best lesson I’ve ever seen !
I enjoyed it thank you!
A very useful video, clear and comprehensible, but I have a concern: May I change the order in a single sentence? ex. “Who is she?” may I say: Do you know who she is? (is it correct?)
thanks beforehand!
You’re absolutely right!
Ok. Thanks a lot!!!
Dear Teachers:
I want to thank you for sharing your knowledge, you are good persons. Your website is the best one in this kind of teaching.

Hi Rebecca, thanks for the lesson. I have a doubt on question 9. The question reads “Do you know if your parents are at home?”
My doubt is not about the embedded question but about the words “at home”. Shouldn’t it just say: “home”? “Do you know if your parents are home?”
Thanks, best regards!
Thank you a lot for this astonishing video.
Well done
I ignore how to tell you how much this lesson is useful to me. Thanks a lot!
