Tim! I Think you must put up a YouTube Channel, Record videos e upload them over there. There are a lot of “YouTubers” making money that way. It is gonna help you.
Thank you for your suggestion, Paulo! Who knows next year!

Are you going eat a turkey dinner in Christmas this year
We sure are!
Are you going to wrap up presents and donate to homeless this Christmas??
I donated toys , but I will not be wrapping them myself.
I totally agree with Paulo up here. You could start doing some videos for YouTube, like you said a few podcasts ago. There’s a lot of teachers doing the same, but I think not all of them have the same knowledge you have as well as charisma and a good way to teach. Because of you and your method I’ve started to improve my English without the needing of a presencial class. BELIEVE TIM, DAVID. YOU’RE DOING A WONDERFUL JOB!!! I speak for myself when I say how exciting is receiving an audio from a native teaching you how to speak more fluently.
Are you going to get together with your family in Jundiai or are you going to travel to your homeland?
All the best for you and your family!!!
Thank you for your kind words, Alexandre! It is very encouraging to get feedback like yours! This year, we will be spending Christmas here in Brazil.
Are you going to go caroling for Christmas?
We already did!
Are you going to decorate your house for Christmas?
It’s already decorated!
Are you gonna to have a night playing video games with your friends in Christmas?
We actually did that! Great suggestion, Juliano! 😉
This is the best way to learn the English language. In this way, we can learn common words which can be used daily.
That’s true, Helen! And they are topic related.
Are you going to think about the real meaning of Christmas?
Yes, we always want to do that!
Are you going to give presents for you daughter at christmas?
Yes, but my wife usually buys her presents. I am not very good at buying gifts for teenage girls. 🙂
Hi Tim,
Once again, thank you indeed for your tips.
I like everything but one, which is “a turkey dinner”. As I am vegetarian, I don’t like to celebrate religious feasts with animal slaughtering, it is not my cup of tea. I do prefer a light food with all nutrients that Mother Earth provides to me.
Happy Christmas! Jesus my Lord bless you and your family.
I’m going to get together with my extended family at Christmas, on Christmas Day specifically. It has been a while we don’t gather all together! We should do this more often!
Jesus is the reason for the season, and because of that, I’m going to be grateful for the undeserved grace and blessings.
Sounds like great Christmas plans!
Well, maybe you can enjoy the other parts of the “turkey dinner”: mashed potatoes, baked corn, sweet potato casserole, stuffing (if it is not prepared inside the bird. Kkk ), cranberry sauce, applesauce, cole slaw,… 😀
Are you going to visit your family this Christmas ?
Not in the States; but our family here in Brazil are going to get together, as always.
Are you going to celebrate the birth of Jesus at Christmas?
Yes, He’s the Reason for the Season!
Are you going to get together with your family for Christmas?
Yes, for sure!
Hello,
Are you going to decorate your house for Christmas ?
Yes, we already have!
Are you going to recover for Christmas?
I’m doing much better already. Thank you!
yes, I’m going to get a lot of presents this year on xmas.
Sounds exciting! 😀
Are you going to celebrate Christmas in a traditional way? Did you believe in Santa Claus when you were a child?
Yes, our family always celebrates Christmas. No, I didn’t ever believe in Santa Claus. But I did like to get candy from him. 🙂
Are you going to decorate outside of your house?
Yes, my son has already decorated.
