That dog is being cute! Is it his personality? As we are looking at the tenses in English grammar with examples, I am going to help you with another question: Why do I sometimes hear “You are being unreasonable” or “I was just being polite”? Using “to be” in the continuous form?! How?!
If you have about 10 minutes, you can find out!
(If you haven’t listened to season one yet or haven’t practiced, that’s ok; we will do a little review today. But going back to season one is a great idea to help you remember and speak fluently)
Remember to go with this flow:
1. Listen to this episode. Listen and try to relax. You will get:
– simple explanations,
– examples,
and,
– chances to practice. So:
2. Listen again, and try to answer the questions out loud. (I can emphasize out loud enough!)
3. Follow me on social media to get reminders for at least one more practice during the week. This time, try to give new answers.

4. If you are listening on YouTube, do not forget to:
- Turn on the CC (Closed Captions),
- “Like” the video (if you liked it!),
- “Subscribe” (because you don’t want to miss extra videos I upload only on YouTube),
and - hit the “Notification” bell (because why not?!)
Now, let’s get going!
