ABOUT THE VIDEO
For years, I have heard students make this grammar mistake in English, even if they are fluent speakers. They often say, "I didn't saw him, I didn't went there, I didn't knew that"... and these sentences are INCORRECT. In fact, you might be making this mistake without even realizing it. So, I made this video to help you practice drilling CORRECT sentences. If you listen to this video several times and practice with my PDF notes, I'm confident you will retrain your brain and your mouth to avoid this mistake now and in the future. Enjoy!
