If English is not your native language, then you probably have times when you feel like your English isn’t good enough.

I want to encourage you today. In this video, I show you some of the errors that native English speakers make. Mistakes are natural, and nobody is perfect. You might not make these mistakes, now. However, sometimes we copy the people around us because we assume that since they are native speakers, they must be right.

I have done this video so you will be able to recognise these errors and avoid falling into the traps yourself.  You should also feel better about your English!

Most of these are writing errors, but the first few are also apparent in spoken English.
