English Grammar Saturday - Verb Patterns and Prepositions

Plats Stockholm

Come and join us for a one-off Saturday English class and brush up your English skills with our expert teacher Morty McCarthy. English verb patterns and prepostions: what are they, how do I use them and does it matter if I use the wrong one? This class will help you with the basics and give you some practice.

Verb patterns refer to those verbs that need to be followed by another verb. 

Is it: I am looking forward to meet you or meeting you? I love to do the cleaning or I love doing the cleaning?

So how do you know which form to use? You need to practice them in context and keep using them!

Prepositions indicate relationships between other words in a sentence and many prepositions tell you where something is or when something happened.

The meeting is at 10 o'clock. We will meet outside the café.

Most prepositions have several definitions, so their meaning depends quite a bit on context and many verbs and adjectives are followed by a particular preposition:

He was worried about arriving at the airport in time for his flight.
