Profile
I am an experienced (over 5 years) ESOL teacher with a CELTA qualification. I have taught English both privately and for schools and businesses such as Siemens, RWE and Caesar Institut. Originally from England (native British English speaker) but spent most of my life in New Zealand. Recently relocated to Berlin and I want to improve my German. I am also really interested in Russian, French and Chinese and hoping to find the time to learn a little of each. I am also a solo musician!

    These (apart from perhaps deep down) often overlap but have their own uses. Best to use a dictionary first but I can explain their usage in a basic overview. Actually is used the most. It can be used in a variety of ways and in variety of positions in a sentence. You can use it a bit like "really". In fact is used slightly less commonly than actually and has a slightly more formal feeling to it and is often reserved for realisations and more 'factual' statements. Indeed is quite formal these days and is used more as an affirmation e.g "absolutely, I agree". Deep down has more of an emotional feel to it e.g. "Deep down I knew something was wrong". It is quite different from the others. Hope this helps a bit.
