7
In this lesson, I'll teach you all the conditional sentences in less than nine minutes.
8
Conditional sentences all follow the same pattern.
9
If if clause, main clause.
10
The only thing that makes them different is the tense used in the if clause, and the main class.
11
Look at this template.
12
If you every day, Your English And we have two verbs, study and improve.
13
Depending on the tens of these verbs, this sentence will have a different meaning and a different use.
14
Let's start with zero conditional.
15
Zero conditional sentences, we have present, Present.
16
If you.. what's the present of study?
17
Study.
18
If you study every day your English, what's the present of improve?
19
improve, but the subject here is your English.
20
Third person singular.
21
improves.
22
You study English every day, your English improves.
23
And this is a zero conditional sentence.
24
But when do we use zero conditional sentences?
25
When we are talking about facts, Things that are always true if you study your English improves.
26

27
It happens here, it happens in Japan, it happens in China.
28
It's something that is always true.
29
If present present.
30
Now let's go to first conditional.
31
present, future.
32
What's the present form of study?
33
Study.
34
What's the future form of improve? will improve.
35
If you study every day, your English will improve.
36

37
When do we use it?
38
When you are talking about an action now, and its future results.
39
If you study English now, what's going to happen in the future?
40
Your English will improve.
41
Or, if you exercise now, you will lose weight.
42
The result of exercising now is you losing weight.
43
So if you do it now, you will see the result.
44
Here's a note: if you are not 100 % sure of the result, instead of "will", you can say "might".
45
If you exercise, you might lose weight.
46
If you study every day, your English might improve.
47
So "will" or "might".
48
Now both zero and first conditional sentences are about the real life and real world.
49
"Things that are real." Now we're going to the second conditional sentences, which is past, Would plus base form.
50
What's the pass of study?
51
Studied.
52
And then would plus base form of improved.
53
If you studied, your English would improve.
54

56
It's imaginary.
57
I know myself.
58
I'm a lazy person and I'm not going to study.
59

60
Am I going to study?
61
No, because I'm lazy.
62
But if I studied, it would improve.
63
Or another example: Do I have 10 million dollars in my bank account?
64
Not yet.
65
If I had $10 million, I would buy a Lamborghini.
66
It's in my head.
67
Imaginary, hypothetical situation.
68
Now let's go to third conditionals.
69

70

71

75

76

79
What was the first part of third conditional?
80
Past perfect.
81

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
