“I have been to there” vs. “I have been there”

A common mistake is saying, “I have been to there,” but this is incorrect. The word “there” already indicates a place, so the preposition “to” isn’t needed. The correct sentence is: “I have been there.”

Remember, when using “there” to talk about a location, you don’t need the preposition “to” in front of it. Just keep it simple with “I have been there.”

Listen to English while doing other tasks.

One of the best ways to improve your listening skills is to play English audio while doing other things.

Whether you’re cooking, cleaning, or exercising, put on an English podcast, YouTube video, or audiobook.

Even if you aren’t paying full attention, your brain will absorb the sounds and patterns of the language. Over time, this will help you understand spoken English more naturally!

Remarkable

"Remarkable" is a useful word for describing something that stands out because it’s impressive or unique.

Try using this word to talk about people, events, or achievements that are truly special!

When to use “some” vs. “any”

Use “some” in positive sentences and offers.

• Example: "I have some friends in New York."

• Example: "Would you like some tea?"

Use “any” in questions and negative sentences.

• Example: "Do you have any questions?"

• Example: "I don’t have any money."

So, remember: "some" for positives and offers, and "any" for questions and negatives.

Which sentence is correct?

B) I have some homework to do.
