- What is a) an anachronism b) a spoonerism c) a palindrome?
Hint: these are not household objects you find in the kitchen!
Best answer
Off the top of my head, I remember a palindrome is a word that's spelled the same way when it's seen backwards. Like the word "level".
Best answer
A homophone consists of two words that sound alike but have different spellings and/or meanings. An example of a homophone in English is great, meaning really good, and grate, meaning to cut food into tiny pieces through a tool called a grater.

First of all I ask my student for his/her needs and goals. I check student’s language knowledge in conversational manner. Then I prepare a personal program that improves the student’s knowledge of the language and also meets the requirements of the student. Fun part is that every lesson aimed for different purposes: reading, speaking, listening, practicing, this way student stays interested and motivated :)

- For students - What are some of your reasons for wanting to improve your English language skills?
Best answer
Students want to improve their English skills for confidence in maintaining conversations with people, whether through writing or speech, and this can be for their professional life or personal or even travel, because it's a universal language.
