Hello folks!

Today, I'm starting an awesome series of posts on the 12 verb tenses.

🤔 Ivan, you've always focused on communication. Why are you teaching grammar now?

The answer is simple, dear followers. While my classes will always focus on helping people verbalize their thoughts, I genuinely believe EVERYONE needs a solid foundation in grammar to communicate with confidence. If anyone has told you otherwise, please check their teaching qualifications. Real language teachers never diminish the importance of grammar.

Just a cool analogy! Think of grammar as the toolbox for clear communication. It helps us put words together so that we make sense, and others understand what we're saying. Without good grammar, it's like trying to build something without the right tools – things might not fit quite right.

I hope you like this series. It won't be boring. I'm creating engaging content with useful examples and videos.

Maybe we are pretty close friends or have just talked over the internet. Maybe we have never exchanged one single word. This is not relevant today.

Today, I’d like to take a moment to thank you for stopping here and reading this text. I’m grateful for your life and for everything you have achieved. Even if we have never met face-to-face, know that I wish you all the best, and I want you to be happy.

For some reason, I wanted to come here today and say these few words. Also, if you’re feeling down or discouraged, I hope you get better soon. I believe energy is something we can virtually pass on to others, so I’m now sending you all my best positive vibes and I hope you can get them wherever you are.

-Ivan
