I wanted to talk to you about the gorgeousness known as Phrasal Verbs. Say what, mama? Yes.\u00a0Phrasal Verbs.\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0This is what native English speakers use all the time. It is usually an informal way of saying something without using too many words. Just a verb and a preposition, and you’re good to go! Have you used one lately? Let me give you a list to get you started.<\/p>\n

These are some common phrasal verbs with the verb ‘to go’. How many have you used lately?<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

But watch out – if you use the wrong phrasal verb, you could give your English coach a heart attack! Once a client, when asked what his weekend plans were, told me “I’m going to look for my children. I’ve been looking for them for 2 days now.” I was so upset – I grabbed my phone and wanted to call the police, and was wondering why this guy (who seemed so kind and so nice) was sitting here calmly working on his English when his kids were kidnapped! OMG.<\/p>\n

After a few moments of watching me fight back tears, he realised that he made a mistake. He told me that he meant ‘looking after’ his kids (which means ‘to take care of’) – not ‘looking for’ them. Please don’t kill your English coach. I thank you from the bottom of my heart!<\/p>\n

If you’d like to check your knowledge of phrasal verbs, try this\u00a0test<\/a>\u00a0– let me know how well you did!<\/p>\n

We’ll be working on this and so much more in my\u00a0Communicate Better In English Masterclass Series<\/a>\u00a0– we have only 8 tickets left! Good news travels fast!<\/p>\n

Thanks again for reading,\u00a0Buffi, and I hope you get back to me soon! I’ll always back you up as a coach. I never want you to back down when it comes to facing your fear of English. Don’t back out of doing your homework. It’s my job to get you back on track. Now, let’s get back to business! \u00a0(See what I did there?)<\/p>\n
