In the first video I uploaded, the 'Teacher' presented 3 idiomatic expressions: as easy as pie, to be pie-eyed and to have a finger in many pies. This time, I'm uploading a new video which presents: to have green fingers, the grass is always greener on the other side and to be green with envy. Personally, I find these videos extremely useful. You know, It's generally difficult to remember new expressions but it's always easier if you can associate them with some mental representation. And these videos help me make that connection, favouring meaningful and lasting learning. I think I'll always remember these expressions- or at least I will for quite a long period of time.
What do you think of these videos? Do you find them useful? Do you apply any other techniques when it comes to learning vocabulary?
Neri: I've found your contributions really useful and interesting. Though I knew some of these idioms, I find that now they'll be easier to remember and evoke in the right situations.
