Learning

Telling a Story in Order

When we talk about things that happened one after another, we use sequencing words. This helps the listener understand the timeline.

The Pattern: First →\rightarrow Then →\rightarrow Next/After that

From the text:

  • "First, she wore a simple black and white outfit."
  • "Then, she wore a big dress..."

Word Power: Describing Things

To reach A2, move beyond just saying "good." Use words that describe the look or feel of something.

  • Simple (Not fancy) →\rightarrow a simple black outfit
  • Beautiful (Very pretty) →\rightarrow beautiful clothes
  • Big (Large size) →\rightarrow a big dress

Sentence Builder: Who did what?

Look at how we connect a person to their job or brand:

Person + works for + Company

  • Alia Bhatt works for L'Oréal Paris.
  • Aishwarya has worked for the brand for 20 years.

Quick Tip: Use "worked for" when you want to talk about the total time spent at a job.
