So I thought I would ask you a few questions.

00:04
I thought I would take you for a little walk
1
4020
2730
00:06
down this trail, and as we're walking,
2
6750
4110
00:10
I thought I would ask you a few questions
3
10860
1770
00:12
about the type of content,
4
12630
3510
00:16
the type of English lessons
5
16140
2130
00:18
that you'd like to see on this channel.
6
18270
2280
00:20
You see, I've always been someone
7
20550
1620
00:22
that has lots of ideas and I still do have lots of ideas,
8
22170
4380
00:26
but I wanna make sure I'm making English lessons
9
26550
2490
00:29
that you like.
10
29040
1560
00:30
I wanna make sure that I'm making English lessons
11
30600
2760
00:33
that you enjoy and that help you
12
33360
3360
00:36
with your English learning.
13
36720
1860
00:38
So let's start first by talking about the Tuesday lessons.
14
38580
3810
00:42
I have this little action cam now
15
42390
2250
00:44
and I'm hoping to use this action cam
16
44640
2760
00:47
to make more English lessons on location.
17
47400
3570
00:50
I want to go places to make English lessons.
18
50970
3030
00:54
Sorry, I was tilting there a bit
19
54000
1380
00:55
'cause the path is a little bit hard to walk along.
20
55380
4200
00:59
This is a path that my son made
21
59580
2280
01:01
in the little bit of woods behind my house.
22
61860
3420
01:05
Anyways, I would love to make more English lessons
23
65280
3720
01:09
at different places.
24
69000
1230
01:10
I'm planning on making an English lesson at the mall,
25
70230
2700
01:12
but if you have any ideas, if there's any places
26
72930
2850
01:15
where you would like me to go to make an English lesson,
27
75780
3420
01:19
please put those ideas in the comments below.
28
79200
3450
01:22
I can't always honor every single request,
29
82650
3090
01:25
but I think it would be fun to just get an idea
30
85740
3150
01:28
of where you would like me to go to make an English lesson.
31
88890
3120
01:32
And then I think that will motivate me to do it.
32
92010
3060
01:35
If I know a lot of people want me to make a certain type
33
95070
3300
01:38
of lesson in a certain place, I'll be more eager to do it.
34
98370
4083
01:43
The second thing is for my Friday lessons.
35
103770
2730
01:46
If you watch my Friday live lessons
36
106500
2910
01:49
you'll notice that I usually teach a lot of vocabulary.
37
109410
4080
01:53
I teach some words and phrases, and I teach some vocabulary
38
113490
3930
01:57
all on one single topic.
39
117420
3390
02:00
And I'll be honest, that's probably the type
40
120810
3900
02:04
of English lesson where I am running out
41
124710
3360
02:08
of ideas a little bit.
42
128070
1230
02:09
I only have about 30 ideas left.
43
129300
3540
02:12
I know that sounds like a lot of ideas,
44
132840
2430
02:15
but I usually have 50 or 60 ideas on my list,
45
135270
3330
02:18
and I feel like I'm running a little bit low.
46
138600
2640
02:21
So if you are someone who watches those Friday live lessons
47
141240
4350
02:25
or maybe you watch the repeat lesson,
48
145590
2340
02:27
the little shorter version, a couple days later,
49
147930
2520
02:30
please again, in the comments below, leave me some ideas.
50
150450
4710
02:35
Now, I know a lot of you
51
155160
1050
02:36
want me to do lessons about grammar.
52
156210
3000
02:39
I usually do avoid those.
53
159210
2100
02:41
So going forward, I would love to do lessons about,
54
161310
3990
02:45
oh, by the way, this looks a little bit spooky here.
55
165300
3840
02:49
This part of the path, it gets darker.
56
169140
2460
02:51
By the way, I am going to do a lesson about spooky places.
57
171600
3150
02:54
It's coming up in a few weeks.
58
174750
1830
02:56
Hopefully I can get that one done before Halloween.
59
176580
3213
03:01
What was I saying though?
60
181260
1200
03:02
I do usually avoid lessons about grammar.
61
182460
3540
03:06
It's just not something that excites me.
62
186000
1980
03:07
But if that's something that you really, really want to see
63
187980
3476
03:11
leave that in the comments below as well.
64
191456
2374
03:13
If enough people say that that's something
65
193830
3000
03:16
that they want to see, I will try to refocus again on that.
66
196830
4590
03:21
I started making lessons a few years ago
67
201420
2700
03:24
on different grammar concepts, different verb tenses
68
204120
2670
03:26
and conjugations, and then I kind of gave up on it
69
206790
3270
03:30
after doing about five or six of them.
70
210060
2100
03:32
It just wasn't something that I enjoyed.
71
212160
3450
03:35
So if there's different styles of lessons that you like,
72
215610
3990
03:39
by the way, this is a little random,
73
219600
1590
03:41
but I do like to show you things like this tree.
74
221190
2733
03:44
This is one of my favorite trees right now
75
224760
2610
03:47
and it's right alongside the river.
76
227370
3000
03:50
So this is a really nice place to come
77
230370
2850
03:53
and think, a place to come and ponder,
78
233220
2760
03:55
what should I make English lessons about
79
235980
2460
03:58
for the next little while?
80
238440
1830
04:00
So again, let me know in the comments below.
81
240270
2430
04:02
Give me your ideas.
82
242700
2100
04:04
You can tell that today too,
83
244800
3180
04:07
I wasn't quite sure what kind of lesson to make
84
247980
2970
04:10
and so I just decided, you know what?
85
250950
1620
04:12
I'll go for a little walk
86
252570
1380
04:13
through the woods and I'll just ask everybody.
87
253950
2670
04:16
So leave a comment below, tell me what you'd like to see
88
256620
3090
04:19
and I will do my best to make those English lessons.
89
259710
3270
04:22
Bye. Have a great week.
