Every week I post on Facebook.
I get nice comments.
I get rude comments.
And I get advice.
Here’s an example of some bad advice I got last week:
Now here’s an example of some good advice:
Happy Spring And Happy Winter!
Where I am, it’s both spring and winter.
At the bottom of the mountain, birds are singing and in the afternoon, there’s no need for a coat.
But at the top of the mountain, you’ll need a hat to cover your ears and warm socks for your toes.

And this month, I’m working and skiing in beautiful, picturesque Bansko, Bulgaria.
“No” Is Good Advice
My favorite word and my favorite sentence in English is “No.”
Why?
Because it’s powerful.
This week, we’ll talk about how simple simple word can make your English stronger.
Here we go!

Your tips to extend the use of English in a wider way proved to be useful during these three weeks as well, end it also turned out to me that reading fluently without translating any written texts does not mean that I could speak as fluently as I can read. That is why, it is not really enough to read books, reports, and articles, watch TV news, and listen to TED talks all of them with one-way communication. Surpassing these English resources we need to extend the use of English to all of our possible daily activities and watch conversations on TV all year long when we have no opportunity to speak to native, or non-native English speakers.
