In my thoughts or On my mind.  I will keep you in my thoughts. You are on my mind. 

Hello! Don't know which option is a correct one. Should I use "in my thoughts" or "on my thought"? Or I can use both ones?

"... in my thoughts" or "... on my thoughts"?

'In my thoughts' is correct. 'On my mind' makes sense too.

In my thoughts is correct. You can also say on my mind e.g you've been in my thoughts lately or you've been on my mind lately.

A tip, you should always try saying out the sentence to hear what sounds correct if you struggling. In my thoughts will be correct

Hello MED, the right one is: in my thought.

The correct use would be in my thoughts. For example, I will keep you in my thoughts today.

To help you understand the difference between WHY we use "IN"or ON" (my mind/thoughts...)
We say IN my thoughts when you are thinking about something/someone because your thoughts happen INside your head.
However, we say"ON my mind" when you are thinking about something that isn't as important or critical.

Tell her you are always on my mind. After that, she will ask you do you know Elvis? And you can say yes baby in my heart is his music. Works 9 out of 10

I think it is VERY important to choose a learning subject that the student is interested in. My lessons are custom-made to suit my student’s needs. Each of my lessons is formatted in the same way: 1) I introduce new vocabulary (words). 2) I show HOW to say/ pronounce them, 3) I show WHAT part of speech they are (verbs, nouns, adjectives…) and help the student to USE these new words in short sentences. It’s important to remember that each lesson/student is different and I like to try to find exactly where my lessons can help the student to improve the most. English is an easy language when you understand the rules. My goal as a teacher is to help the student SEE and HEAR their results as soon as possible because this really helps to keep my students motivated. I am very patient and don’t like to rush our lessons.
