Focus: Grammar in action

When it comes to reporting questions or creating indirect polite questions, we need to change more than the tense; we need to change the word order back to a statement as well.

Let's find out more about this.

Step 1:

Watch the video lesson at least twice, and make sure you take notes.

Step 2:

When you have finished the video lesson, download the Exercise PDF below and do the exercises.

Make sure you write complete sentences.

Step 3:

When you've finished the exercises, download the ZIP file below.

Use the Answer key PDF to check and correct your answers.

Then, use the Audio file to build strong reflexes through two listening activities:

Activity 1: Listen & write (or type) each correct answer.

Activity 2: Listen & repeat each correct answer out loud several times without looking at the text.

Step 4:

When you feel you've fully mastered the material in this lesson, take the quiz.

You need to get a minimum score of 80% in each quiz to receive your Certificate of Completion, so repeat the quiz until you score above 80%. You can take each quiz up to 10 times.
