A little about me: My name's Minoo. I'm originally from Iran, and I live in the UK. I obtained my TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) Diploma in England in 1985. Since then, I've been an English teacher, teacher trainer, and course director in various schools and countries. I'm also a trained confidence coach. In 2008, my son, Tom, and I set up the Anglo-Link platform for online English studies. This led to the creation of our popular YouTube channel in 2011. My passion is to share with you what I've learnt on my own English language journey, both as a student and as a teacher, so that you can become a fluent speaker of English too. I'm looking forward to welcoming you to the Anglo-Link Community, and to supporting you on your journey to becoming a confident and fluent speaker of English. 00:00 Introduction 00:40 Common & Proper Nouns 03:08 Singular & Plural Nouns 05:07 Choosing between articles 'a' and 'an' 06:34 Pronunciation of article 'the' 07:40 Irregular Plurals 08:55 Plural Nouns: with and without 'the'? 10:41 Countable & Uncountable Nouns 11:50 Two common mistakes with uncountable nouns
