Thank you for a brilliant first session, you have a very strong level of verbal communication and a good understanding of more complex topics that will only improve with practice! :)

A great first session with Fabiano. He has a great accent and a very strong command of the English language.

Fabiano shocked me with his natural-sounding pronunciation and his almost flawless command of English in general. Whatever his secret is, he needs to share it with the rest of us.

    In my experience..
    Hold off:
    1 - To prevent an attack. You prevent someone from coming at you by stalling them or putting up barriers so they don't move forward.
    2 - You delay making a decision or taking action until the time is right.

    3 - When you wish it would not rain, example: I hope the rain holds off until I get home

    Hold up:
    1 - You stand in the way of people and stop them from going ahead or sticking to a schedule.
    2 - You hold a place up means you rob it.

    Hold over:
    You keep something happening beyond the time it should. Like a film at the cinema. It was such a box office hit that they hold it over for one more week.

    I hope it helps

    To give someone grief I was wondering what it means when you say someone is giving you grief. I´d appreciate it if somebody could explain it. Thank you.

    Difference between to knock off and knock over (meaning to burgle and steal) I recently watched a film in which two people were talking about houses that had been burgled. One of the characters said 'Two houses were knocked over last night. We need to find out who´s burgled them' I looked up in the dictionaries (Oxford and Macmillan) and the meaning of knocking over a place is to rob it and steal things. However, the same dictionaries say that to knock off also means to steal from a place, e.g.: They knocked off a bank. I´d like to know if these phrasal verbs can be used interchangeably. Thank you

    I learnt British English at first. Later I worked with Australians and picked up some of their mannerism as well, and to top it off I had a lot of exposure to American English because of work. So my accent is a melting pot, though people tend to say I have a British/Australian twang. In my part of the world it´s American English pronunciation they teach and I´ve had many people tell me they have an easier time understanding Americans as opposed to British accents (especially English spoken in the north of England). I prefer British English but I think 'posh' is a bit much.
