For a long time, Amy put off her English studies. She was afraid of letting her parents down. She wanted to learn English, but she didn't want to put up with grammar and boring exercises. However, she found an uncommon English teacher called Georgiana.
Amy sent her an email to ask for an appointment. Since she lived in the same city, she could meet this teacher in person. The same day she had the appointment, Amy decided to buy new clothes. She wanted to look good.
She went to a shop and saw something wonderful. She came in, took off her jacket, and tried on a new one. It was perfect! She bought it. It was getting late, so she had to hurry up. "Come on, Amy, don't be late! Hurry up," she said to herself. When she arrived, Georgiana let her in. Amy didn't take off the jacket. She really loved it.
The first class started…no grammar, no boring exercises. After that class, Amy knew for sure that Georgiana wouldn't let her down.

For a long time, I put off my English studies. I was afraid of letting my parents down. I wanted to learn English, but I didn't want to put up with grammar and boring exercises. However, I found an uncommon English teacher called Georgiana.
I sent her an email to ask for an appointment. Since I lived in the same city, I could meet her in person. The same day I had an appointment. I decided to buy new clothes. I wanted to look good.
I went to a shop and saw something wonderful. I came in, took off my jacket, and tried on a new one. It was perfect! So, I bought it. I was getting late, so I had to hurry up. "Come on, Amy, don't be late! Hurry up," I said to myself. When I arrived, Georgiana let me in. I didn't take off the jacket. I really loved it.
The first class started…no grammar, no boring exercises. After that class, I knew for sure that Georgiana wouldn't let me down.
Ok, this is the end of this short lesson.
You see, just by changing a point of view of the story, you can learn grammar intuitively. My recommendation: Listen to the Point of View many times. It'll help a lot.
