Dear teacher Dee, Thank you for your teaching. Today is my first time to study with you. So...I couldn\'t understant what you were saying to me very well. I have several questions about today\'s class. 1. When we talked about the duration of my teaching, you told me.... \"You should say.... I have the consense. I have come up a prof.\" It had been 5 years since I have become a prof. Here, I have the consense. I have come up a prof => what does it mean? 2. How would you take your time resting..... if you are just going to take a rest? => is it a right expression? 3. In the last moment of today\'s class, you told me that..... Nothing consents your mind..=> what does it mean? Thank you. Best regards, [이름].

Hello [이름]! Thank you for taking time dissecting trivial details in our conversation. Spoken English and written English, you see, have nuances. Spoken English is spontaneous and very often, the speaker has the tendency to make repetitions or make supporting statements to come across what he/she wants to express. What is important in a conversation is for you to enjoy it :) Don\'t be to rigid in everything that is being said because a conversation is free flowing and it is natural. Have fun in learning!--T.Dee


1. When we talked about the duration of my teaching, you told me....
\"You should say.... I have the consense. I have come up a prof.\"
It had been 5 years since I have become a prof.

Here, I have the consense. I have come up a prof => what does it mean? 

>>The exact statement is \"You should say.... \"I have\"..  since I have become a professor.\" You must have misheard me. I was trying to give you a grammar correction when I sensed that you were struggling to express yourself previously.


 2. How would you take your time resting..... if you are just going to take a rest? => is it a right expression?

>>Yes, it is. There are two sentences in this. They are: \"How would you take your time resting? Are you just going to take a rest?\" If a speaker wants to give emphasis to the question or a statement previously said, particularly in spoken English, he or she has a tendency to rephrase it. You must know, by experience, that you will not remember exactly what you said after a minute or even after a few seconds. It is more important that you focus on the thought or the idea of the question.


 3. In the last moment of today\'s class, you told me that..... Nothing consents your mind..=> what does it mean?

>>The exact expression here is \"nothing comes to your mind\". This refers to a \"writer\'s block.\"
