this is great. I have a Japanese friend whom I'm trying to help learn english. I will definitely have to show her these videos and try some of these techniques.

I'll note your request. In the meantime, have you watched the videos of other teachers here on YouTube? One man posted a lesson on asking and giving directions. Just type in "English asking and giving directions" and you should see the link.

Hi..I would like to ask if you can include in your upcoming videos in how you can get a location or giving a direction....example: Girl:Can you tell me where the check-in desk?Man:It might be quicker to turn right as soon as you get pass the cafe and keep going along the corridor until you come to the sliding doors at the end.On the left... The same thing what you did in this video. It's confusing....Thank you...

Indeed, one can only understand how difficult a task is after trying to perform it oneself. I think it's a very useful experience for ESL teachers to study other languages. I have admiration for everyone who makes a strong effort to learn a second or foreign language.

wait until an American try to pronounce some foreign words, like Chinese, so learning English pronunciation is most difficult

It's hard for others to say, too. Take it slowly and focus on moving your mouth into the correct position for "th". In time, the movements will become more automatic. Good luck!
