FOUNDATION RESET

Today is a review lesson. No new episode. We are slowing down, organizing English you already know and making it easier to use.

1

Quick Start

What do you already know?

0–5 min
Rule: try first. Then click CHECK. Say every complete sentence aloud after you reveal it.

👤 About me

I live in São Paulo.
I have family in Brazil.

👥 About another person

She lives in Manhattan.
She has family in Poland.
Where do you live?
Where does she live?
The meeting is at two thirty.
Study note: these are not random grammar sentences. They are chunks from the office, small-talk and scheduling situations you have already practiced.
🧠
LEARN MODESee the pattern. Hear it. Practice it.Clear explanations first — then short, active practice.

Grammar Review

Present Simple · I / You × He / She

5–17 min
Grammar has a job: it helps us talk about ourselves and other people clearly.

👤 ABOUT ME · I / YOU

PatternUseful English
liveI live in São Paulo.
haveI have family in Brazil.
doDo you live here?

👥 ABOUT HE / SHE

PatternUseful English
livesShe lives in Manhattan.
hasShe has family in Poland.
doesDoes she live here?

See the change

I live→She lives
I have→She has
Do you…?→Does she…?
Important: after does, use the basic verb.
✅ Does she live in London?   ❌ Does she lives in London?
✅ Does she have family here?   ❌ Does she has family here?
Does she live in London?
Does she have family here?
Memory shortcut: learn the complete patterns — “She lives in…”, “She has…”, “Where does she live?” — not only the rule.
