C: Hi, guys, Chris McVay here. Oh, what is that wonderful smell? Is it your perfume, Roza?
R: Of course, it is.
C: Lovely.
R: Hey, everyone, Akino Roza here. Ready for today's lesson? Let's go!

(3:40)
R: You don't require the textbook to study English, but I know that it will definitely help you.

(10:26)
C: OK, guys, ready to practice the key sentence? "Are you hungry?"
It's so easy, isn't it? But you know, even the simplest shortest question contains emotion because you want to know the answer there's even a kind of suspense there. So, my advice is -- say such sentences never say such questions in a robotic way. You have to add emotion like this. I want to know. I want to know. Are you ready? "Are you hungry?"
(10:57)
C: Once more. "Are you hungry?"
(11:01)
C: Yes, make sure you add emotion even to the shortest questions. OK?
Well done guys.

(14:37)
ORC: Did you watch our English program last week?
