Original subtitles

i'm fine thank you how are you

hello everyone okay we'll just wait a

couple of minutes before we start so

that students would be coming in

okay yeah

does anyone have any questions from the

last time

since we're waiting

oh no doctor no

okay just a minute and we'll start in

shanda

fine uh i just like first of all would

like to talk about

because some students spoke to me about

the uh

the videos um the videos are recorded as

they are

as how the lecture has been running this

is the person that i want to talk to you

about

now regarding um how it goes let's say

that for instance you sometimes do not

hear me speaking

when there is a problem with the

internet or the microsoft the problem is

with the microsoft

my internet is running really well but

the problem is with the microsoft

so when there are times that let's say

that it's lagging i know that it's

lagging

i will not speak i will stop when it

comes back it takes less than a minute

and it comes back i will continue so i

need you to

bear with me in this and it's not

happening all the time

it's just happening at some days i don't

know why but it happens

i did complain and it seems it should be

from the company

itself microsoft uh maybe a lot of

pressure maybe more people are buying

microsoft maybe i

live in a neighborhood where there's a

lot of pressure i'm not sure so

to solve the problem what i i have two

solutions

one solution that i'm gonna have to stop

and then i'll continue after i get back

the other solution especially the

grammar

every time i finish a grammar lesson i

am going to repeat it

on a thursday starting this thursday

all right i will i will announce it

here on teams what time on thursday

i will repeat the lesson now even if you

cannot attend

you cannot come you have work you have

lab you have

a session whatever your reason is okay

lagging's not from me it's from the

microsoft teams

show you again

um

the screen i'm going to share with you

the screen to know

that you can find the vocab here

this is unit 1 vocab all right

i'm going to open it for every unit

you will have a vocab list i will upload

a vocab list before

we start with a unit now you have this

okay this list

for you to know what do they mean to

understand

not to memorize mishla hepas to

understand

what do they mean these words when i say

you study the vocab you study the papers

that i give you

only now the exercises in your

student book and workbook are to show

you how i will be conducting your tests

okay

back to our worksheet um

fine now today i'm going to start with

you writing

but very simple i'm not going to give

you any assignment yet i'm going to do

with you a try out

so that means let's all of us go to our

student book

page

5 please student book page 5.

okay can someone tell me what is a main

idea

doctor excuse me yes

doctor can you wait just few seconds

fine okay

yeah thank you doctor you're welcome

dr yes please it's what the

topic or passage or whatever talks about

yeah it the main idea focuses only on

the passage or the paragraph it's

mentioned in yeah sorry paragraph

yeah just so we could make it clearer

yes so the main idea

is okay it exists in each paragraph

okay it exists in each paragraph

now in the first paragraph if you have a

subject

you have a whole subject passage the

main id

in the first paragraph is also called a

topic sentence

look at your book look at the top of the

topic sentences look at the definition

of the topic sentences it says

the main id is usually found in the

first sentence of the paragraph

this sentence is called the topic

sentence

so i repeat you are okay to understand

that

main ideas exist in every single

paragraph

in the first paragraph all right i have

to use english because i have none

non-arab speakers here so but if you

need to understand something

in arabic just could you stop me and

i'll translate is that okay that will be

better

okay yeah yeah sure okay but i'll speak

slowly

i repeat when you have a passage that

means a passage that has more than one

paragraph two

three four five paragraphs each

paragraph should have a main idea

but only the first paragraph

would have the main id also has another

name which is the topic sentence

is this clear yeah so it has two names

it has two names yes now an english one

which is

what you're taking you're only required

to write a paragraph

you are i am going to train you on

writing cons constructive paragraphs

okay so we are going to do some training

first then i will give you your first

assignment

fine so i want you to understand yes

uh is there any difference between

the essay and the paragraphs

yes an essay does consist of paragraphs

an essay is

a subject it's a passage

it's a composition okay

okay yeah paragraph

only one paragraph only one set of

sentences

a set of sentences of course not one

sentence a set of sentences

so a paragraph mainly consists between

mainly eight to ten

ten sentences but we are going to just

get trained on writing

five to eight sentences over here in

english one

okay all right

any questions so far before uh i carry

on

okay now what do we how do we identify

topic sentences i want to go to page

five we have a very simple exercise

look at exercise a it says read these

programs about people's best and worst

qualities

and you are to underline the topic

sentence in each paragraph

first we're gonna

someone is going to tell us which is the

main idea and someone else is going to

explain to us

page five student book

okay

okay can you hear me yes doctor

yes yeah okay i would like someone to

read i'll go to the participant page

just to see um fine

okay uh yes you made it i'm not sure if

i if i'm on the right page

uh you have it's written at the top of

the page seven

writing

it should be student book

page seven page no page five

exercise seven at the top of the page

you'll find number seven next to it the

word writing

okay just a second

look that can i start yeah just let me

uh

when the student is ready you got it

yeah all right great then yes sarah you

may start

i think that my most positive quality is

that i am always

pretty calm and cool especially when

something

breaks i am really into solving tricky

problems and finding solution to things

my

my specialty is

next people people come to me

if something goes wrong with their

computers or

phones for example two days ago my dad's

brand new

tablet suddenly froze up he was afraid

of causing more damage so he asked

to figure out the problem it only took

me

15 minutes to fix it and i love it doing

that

yes thank you sara fine

where's the main id save do you know

where's the main id

save yousef

yes yes yes where's the main idea

doctor can i say it's okay i'm i'm

trying students it's okay don't worry i

see your hands i'm gonna

make sure that all of you participate

do you know where's the main idea safe

actually not okay yes faisal it's okay

safe you will try next time

yes faisal the main idea

is that i am always uh

pretty calm and call

silly uh when something break

yes thank you so much the first sentence

is the main idea

all right now we are going to explain

why

now of course you can participate now

but

what are you what i want you to do look

at the sentence i think that my most

positive quality

i circle positive quality is that i'm

pretty calm and cool so the positive

quality which i am going to focus on

in my paragraph is the common cool

quality

especially when something breaks that

means the examples which you are going

to read

got to do when how i fix things that are

broken

so when i put as a writer my main id

i go back to the main id i underline or

highlight the keywords that i mentioned

i am responsible for what i have written

now look how the author expanded

the main id i'm really into solving

tricky problems and finding solutions to

things

this is not a main idea he's telling us

he is explaining he is expanding

that how he can find solutions to

problems

fix things that are broken now he is

going to elaborate

more my specialty is electronics this is

an example

people come to me if something goes

wrong with their computers now he gave

us an example how

for example one of these people is his

father and how he picks his tablet

so if you look at it just see how simple

the writing is it is very simple

what matters to me students when you

write i

it doesn't impress me when you use you

know sophisticated

words i'm not looking into these words

now you are we are still doing the basic

writing

what i'm looking into is the writing

your paragraphs constructively

constructively means you combine your

understanding of grammar right with

with the understanding of the question

given to you

let's look at the other example okay who

would like to read the second paragraph

fine um yes yes

my most negative quality is that i'm not

very neat and tidy sometimes i worry

about

being so disorganized

but i never feel like doing anything

about it

my apartment is always a messy

so i can never find anything last week

for example i finished doing some

homework

and then

and then started to make dinner in the

morning i could not find my assignment

anywhere so i had to redo it i really

want to change my

my bad habits but i don't know where to

start

yes thank you okay

sultan would you like to tell us where

is the main idea in this paragraph

yes miss yes

uh i'm not very neat

uh yes would you mind telling us where's

the main idea in this paragraph

i think in seconds sometimes

i worry about the bringing to this

gunset

i think miss it's always a miss it

okay let's look at the sentence that you

have chosen sultan

sometimes i worry about being so

disorganized

but i never feel like doing anything

about it now to decide that if this is

the main idea or any other sentence

is i have to look at the rest of the

paragraph

all right now my apartment is always a

mess this is this is an example

all right and then you say last week for

example doing some homework and then

started to make dinner

now he's giving us examples of how he is

disorganized

but if you look about look at the

sentence

sultan when you want to decide a main

idea you should see

you should look for which sentence is

more general

is it this one that you've just chosen

or is it the first one my most negative

quality is that i'm not very neat and

tidy

there's the first one yes i'm not very

neat and

tidy yes i'm not very nice and tidy

because this is my problem i'm

disorganized

so you have to when you want to when you

are not sure about the main idea

students

choose the ones that you feel the most

is actually very general

it's very broad it doesn't give you

details main idea doesn't give you

details

can i say the main idea because the

last one i didn't say anything uh

which one for which one for this one

yeah we have chosen but yes you would

like to confirm go ahead say

the main idea is that there is a young

man

who wants to change his bad habit and

become

clean and tidy

yes right which is this is the

understanding the let's say between the

lines this is the understanding main

idea yes safe

thank you all right

so i am going to sum up what we have

just uh

spoken i'm just explained by the way

right now we're coming to exercises

when i want to choose a main idea choose

as a reader i want to choose the main id

when i want to choose

and i'm a bit skeptic i'm not sure which

one is the main id

compare between two or three sentences

that are on your mind from the text

which one of them is very general the

main idea is always general

it's not specific sometimes it could be

very very very let's say

very close to each other like what what

sultan has over here chosen because

they're close to each other sentence one

and sentence two are close

my most negative question is that i'm

not very neat and tidy then we have

sometimes that we're about being so

disorganized

now some students will say it is just

another way of saying

the sentence but no if you look at the

second sentence he says sometimes i

worry about

a worry about being so disorganized

now his giving he's not talking the text

doesn't talk about worry about

his worries it talks about how he is

untidy

so that means sentence one is the main

id

this is one way to love this is very

important because you need to understand

that when you read is different than

when you write

now when you write which is required

from you as english 1 students when you

write

you put your main id when you decide

on your main id you do several steps

which we are going to exercise together

now step one

you write down your main id your

conference that is the main id second

thing you

underline highlight the keywords within

your main id

when you write your paragraph go back to

the keywords that you have

mentioned expand them

explain them to me by giving examples

by giving advantages disadvantages by

listing

by ordering it depends on the norm of

your paragraph

this what makes you a good writer this

what excel you into

writing paragraphs this what will excel

you

when you graduate and you apply for jobs

for your application to be taken into

consideration

this what will excel you when you work

in a certain

company and you want to apply for a

promotion

that you would be competed with others

and you will be able to take the

promotion

it is how you write your ideas

in english okay

so if you want to have this if you're

motivated to have it

you are you need to be with me all the

time don't focus on this matter as if

it's got to do with marx only

marks carry one percent of your life

99 carries your attitude

this is very important okay

your education is in your behavior how

you write how you speak

how you act not in your marks

okay students so uh i'm telling you this

just to

to understand why is it important for

you to write

okay any question before we go to our

workbooks about this exercise

keep your hands up we have exercises

coming up

okay i'm gonna photo page three from the

workbook

and i'm going to share it with you on in

the group

while i do so since i'm multifunctional

anyone has any question

no doctor i don't have any question

thank you okay

you're welcome

doctor just a second please just second

okay

yes students do you see it yes

okay fine

okay uh choose the main id we have

exercise we

i want someone to read all right we have

two paragraphs

and then we're gonna choose the main id

from one of the four given to us

okay and then another student is going

to tell us why is this the main idea

okay honey would you like to read number

one

honey you're here

okay would you like to read the first

paragraph

okay yes honey fine but i'll come back

to you ahmad thank you

yes honey

yes honey

can you repeat it again please yeah i

would like you to read number one

the first paragraph number one just

reading she enjoys

um which page uh you can

if you do you have the workbook no i

don't i have only a student book

yeah you can read from the uh okay i'll

let you read paragraph two i'll go to

someone else since uh

somebody from the i shared the document

in the group

okay okay ahmad are you ready

may i really doctor yeah yes go ahead

please

she enjoys doing unusual things and

pushing herself to the limit

last year for example she insisted on

visiting china

she enrolled in chinese language classes

planned her trip

and then took off across china with a

friend she loves exploring

new places and she doesn't hesitate to

start compositions

with locals wherever she goes

yes thank you all right

mansoor

do you know which one of these four is

the correct main id for this paragraph

mansur hamruni

uh yes it's just one minute yeah

which one of these four is the correct

main idea main idea okay

okay she enjoys doing major things

pushing herself to the limit

the second one right my mother

yes is very adventurous yes thank you

mansoor

all right uh haneen i'm gonna ask you

okay we have chosen for the first

paragraph do you have the uh document

with you do you see it

are you with us um i couldn't find it

i'm trying to get it i'm on my ipad

okay all right then i'll i'll give you

time it's all right

fine who knows i i'll choose i'm gonna

ask a question

just listen to me i want to know why

have we chosen the second one to be the

main idea my mother is very adventurous

who would like to speak up yes doctor

yes sir can i say why

all right i'll start with steve yes

actually i was going to say number three

i really admire my mother

okay we're gonna discuss this but i

would like first of all to hear someone

who to tell me why is the second one the

main idea yes maryam

because she is didn't interest in

dangerous and she

loves adventure so she decided to

make a trip to chinese to china

that's why you choose my mother is very

adventurous that's the general idea for

this paragraph

yes thank you maryam i'm going to

rephrase what miriam has said

now she said that the she agrees that

the second one my mother's very

adventurous is the main idea because

i look at okay of course all all the way

through the paragraph

i'm talking about my mother but i'm

going to talk about my mother how she

does adventures so over here if you see

it's the paragraph is an expansion of

how she is adventurous

she enjoys usually doing new places yes

and about china china is an example of

one of her adventures to show you to

what extent she can go

now if we number one my mother loves

chinese language if i wanna

this is the main idea the whole

paragraph should talk about

why does she like learning chinese

or speak chinese so that is going to

focus on

my mother's admiration of the chinese

language

if i want to choose sweet i really

admire my mother i will talk about

what the reasons why i like my mother

all right now my mother's very

adventurous that doesn't mean i like or

i hate my mother i'm just talking about

my mother i'm not

i'm not expressing my feelings all right

i'm telling you i'm describing to you

how she is adventurous

i really add my mother that means my

feelings should be involved

you got the difference

yes yeah and finally i am not like my

mother at all it should be a paragraph

of comparison

a comparison between my mother and i

this is not a comparative

paragraph you got it students

yes okay we'll go to the second one

mason would you like to be the second

paragraph

yes yeah

he's probably the most outspoken person

i know

last week after class for example he

said to our english english teacher

some of the students are a little

confused by this week's

class but i have some ideas to help

explain it to them do you want to hear

my suggestions

joan was saying what he thought and

luckily

luckily our teacher was willing to

listen to him

yes thank you okay who would like to uh

tell us which is the main idea

yes mason

i think my friend john always says what

is

on his mind yes correct i agree with

myself

anyone has any opposition

okay again we're going to discuss why

the last one is the correct main idea

let's go to the first one

i have a friend named john if i'm gonna

choose this as a main id what should i

write about

his information him alone

and not his behavior

or with his teacher

okay we're coming to all of them we're

coming to all of them but we're going to

start with the first one

so yes i agree with you that i have a

friend if i want to choose a hyperbar

named john that means i'm going to focus

about john

his birth his family his habits his uh

uh that's a

description about him yes discussion

about him so it's going to focus

focus only on john if i want to choose

the second one my friend john and i

are in the same class that means i

should talk about what

about me and him yes okay about

how we are in the same class yes what

what classes we take together

all right what do we do in the class

together

if you see that that paragraph does not

focus about the writer

right

if we choose the third one which is

which sometimes student mix

mix it up with the fourth one all right

my friend john is the kind of person who

loves to talk

what do i mean by that

i mean that's someone who's talkative

what do you mean by talkative

talks a lot yeah like your teacher me

right

so someone yeah who talks so much

so over here it's not talking us we're

not describing john

as a person who's talked too much

without describing john how he how he

expresses what he has on mind

how he is an outspoken person

okay

all right questions about this exercise

okay um you can ask me later if maybe

some of you would like to ask later

think about it

now what i'm going to do with you do you

see the uh the document or is it gone

it's there it's gone okay i'm going to

listen

all right it's there okay now what i'm

going to do i'm going to write a

paragraph

which is filled with mistakes all right

and then we're going to discuss

these ideas maybe we're not going to

finish it today but

this is i'm drilling this one into you

next

uh wednesday next week not

the one after tomorrow just to let you

know next wednes

doctor mike um my car is very old yeah

okay i underline this one okay

fine now

what do you there's a mistake here my

car is very old mine is 10 years old

yeah it should be it is 10 years old not

mine

because i should not

i put full stop here and then

we start a new sentence saying it is 10

years old

yes it is 10 years old not mine is 10

years old

so over here we have grammar error fine

and it is and it's always breaking down

what's wrong with this one

it's wrong what's wrong with it

you should put it it always breaks down

because it's it's not as it's it's

now over here just to let you know the

lesson it's

this is this is possessive pronoun

in a sentence for example

uh the cat

is licking its tail

so after it's the one over here without

the apostrophe which is the possessive

is

all right there should be a noun look at

the other one

you have it's right this is subject

verb it is

it is for example

it is a cool day

today i

don't

hang out

so over here it is is a shortcut for

it i mean this is a shortcut for it

is okay that's the difference

all right so um

it is 10 years old and it's always

breaking down when i need it what's

wrong with this one

it should be like it always breaks down

when i need it not breaking down

and it shouldn't be like it's or it is

always breaking

okay i'll come to this one fine yes

capital i now the

pronoun i no matter its position it is

always capital

okay and as for and it is always

breaking down

now over here about the tenses

it okay i want you all students to look

at the difference between two it always

breaks down

and it always is sorry

it's always breaking

down what's the difference between the

two

when i use them in my in my writing

what's my intention

yes yes

okay it depends on how i use my sentence

now it always breaks down this is called

the present simple

the present simple tense when i use the

present simple

yes yes correct so when i use the

present simple tense i'm talking about

actions that

commenced

in the past so has

effect in the present

and may presume in the future

this is my intention when i use the

present simple tense

or i'm talking about continuous

habit

now it's always breaking down as you

said it is the present

continuous tense

actions

that are happening

now now in this paragraph

whether the author has used the pattern

simple or the present continuous

to my dear friend who has commented both

are correct

because actually they both make sense to

his situation

it's always breaking down whenever i use

it it breaks down

or this some this the this let's say

dilemma of my car has been happening for

a long time so i use the present simple

oh i'm telling you that it's breaking

down it's just that right now

i know that when i drive my car it will

break down so i'm using the present

continuous

so in this case both are correct but i

put i have put for you

the explanation of the two tensors for

you to understand they don't come

together all the time by the way

okay all right questions so far

okay now student i want you to know i

want you to understand what's my point

how do we correct because you are

university students

just see how many mistakes we have in

the first line

do you see how many mistakes we have in

the first line now this will affect you

this will affect you so this is why i am

going to train you before you start

writing

of course when i give you your first

assignment right your first assignment

would not be just

continuously just writing this could be

training on writing as well

but when we come to the second

assignment and your final exam

you have to make sure that you are well

let's say

in good let's say grounds with your

writing mechanism anyway let's continue

it costs a lot of money for repairs each

year what's wrong with this one

for repairing

no it works repairs yes it works repairs

and it works with parents a lot it'd be

lots

again we cannot say a lot

the next sentence what's where we i

asked the class what's wrong with it it

costs a lot of money for repairs each

year

so we can say repairs are repairing

and about a lot a student says that it

should be lots

it costs lots of money what's wrong with

a lot that's my question

maybe because like we are not paying

only once

we keep paying this money so it slots

i'm not sure

okay fine i'll listen to all of your

comments

anyone else has other comments

maybe alert for countable now

a lot comes with both count and

non-count

so money over here is non-count we can

use it with a lot

uh in my opinion there's no mistake in

my opinion

and i see that you also you are hesitant

all right so since you're hesitant that

means you are you are not sure that if

there's a mistake or not

so over here for repairs preparing for

repairs it's wrong

why uh we should

delete for i think so

it costs a lot of money repairs each

year

i'm not sure doctor there isn't a

mistake

there isn't a mistake any space

there isn't a mistake it's true

there isn't a mistake yes i agree with

you there isn't a mistake

now to answer the student that just

spoke about for i cannot say i cannot

delete for

it costs a lot of money to repair

something or for

the repair so i'm putting i'm putting

money on that so i need to use the

preposition for

it costs a lot of money repairs each

year

you see there's something missing

okay so there's no mistake over here

okay let's carry on also the heater

don't work anymore

doesn't it doesn't yeah it should be

doesn't why doesn't that not don't

both are negative because heater

yes so the um again

back to the present simple tense you

have to know that some pronouns take

don't some pronounce take doesn't

and finally so it is called in winter is

there anything wrong with this one

no no it's correct no

and i really wish i had gone somewhere

else

what's wrong with this one this is not

related to

our our main idea i guess

excellent yes this one is irrelevant

it's not related to our topic or our

main idea

yes irrelevant

sorry sentence

unrelated to the main idea

okay fine

now i'm just showing you how how it goes

with me how i correct

so that you would have it in front of

you exactly i will correct it like that

using the review and the track changes

okay now as for you right now

over here i'm going to go back to

speaking about ordering your ids

okay now when i order my ids

first of all i repeat what is the first

thing that we learned what should i do

i have an id i want to write about this

what should i do first what's the first

step

writing thing write the main id yes put

down

the main idea

okay step two

before i write the paragraph what should

i do it's a grammar

before i go into the paragraph i'm still

not done with the main idea

expand it before expanding

expanding is writing the the paragraph

before i do that what should i do

what's very important so i know how to

expand it

highlight keywords excellent yes i

highlight

the keywords where

are these keywords mentioned

in the question in the example

okay because i want to know where i'm

going to focus

all right step three

the key words in the main

id so i'm trying to be specific with you

do you know

so you would know how to write okay when

i expand the keywords domain id i expand

them

by giving what

examples examples formations cons and

posts listing

etc right

how do i wrap up my paragraph

how do i how do you usually end it by

saying how you can improve it or okay

change it this could be

a opinion yes

yes so these are called let's say uh you

could say

yes summing up summing up

uh rephrasing or or let me put it in

here

phrasing yes the main idea

right recommendations and advice

this is how i would end it up

okay now students if it is a

a topic you're writing about topic which

is personal of course you can mention

these

but if it's not personal all right you

are not to mention these

now i'm going to put it over here this

is for subjective what do i mean by

subjective opinions let's say subjective

topics

subjective topics are topics

in which i can

mention my thoughts

and feelings you have

objective topics

are topics in which

i do not state my

opinions

at all for example

i may wrap

up

give me examples how would you wrap it

up

i mentioning paragraph

by mentioning

the following let's say it is a

scientific topic

i can say what give me an example of a

conclusion where your opinions are not

included

for example

doctor yeah i can give advice

unless give my opinion no an objective

you don't give me

you know what's objective let's say for

example i asked you i asked you

to visit the place and describe it

or describe an event or give me a report

on something this is objective

i don't want your opinions i want you to

give me facts

yeah i can't summarize the ideas

yes thank you summarize

the paragraph

uh in different

way words

which is called rephrasing

okay this is very important so it's like

you have a scientific

objective means when you have a

scientific topic

okay

okay fine i think i'll stop here today

uh that will be enough we are going to

continue on writing uh
