Today we have seen the uses of the Gerund. And we came accross with the expression "feel like + gerund". Here you can find a fine example of how it's used. See if you can spot other uses of the gerund in the lyrics! And try to sing along!!

0 Street Entertainers in London!

Mime artists, jugglers, acrobats, ... all of them earn a living in the London streets by entertaining passers-by. These artists are also called Buskers in British English, especially those that sing in the street.

Here's a short little video about Busker's life. It's actually just a trailler of a documentary. If you want to look for more videos, try searching for "busker" or "street entertainers" on youtube.


I hope you enjoy it!

1 Present Continuous Vs Present Simple: It's War!!!


Here's a game to practice present continuous and present simple. Here's how it goes: You have to kill as many alien teachers as you can. Use the mouse to move, and click to shoot.



Every 30 seconds you will have to complete a sentence with present continuous or present simple of a verb given, in order to keep on playing. You only have 3 lives.  Use the keyboard to write your answers faster. 


It's really fun and addictive, believe me!If you play, leave a comment, which level did you reach?, what was your score? Let's do some competition!!
