English with Shola 02/05/2026

Stop saying: ❌ buy something TO someone

Say this instead:
✅buy something FOR someone

Quick rule:
✔️ give → TO
✔️ buy/do → FOR

These small changes make your English sound much more natural.

💬 Write a sentence about what you’re doing for your mum!

Most people learn grammar…
but then get to work and don’t understand what anyone is actually saying.

These are the kinds of idioms people use EVERY day at work 👇

• Hit the ground running – start something fast and with confidence
• Pull your weight – do your fair share of the work
• Go the extra mile – do more than what’s expected
• Burn the midnight oil – work late into the night
• Learn the ropes - learn how to do the job

If you can use these naturally, your English instantly sounds more fluent — especially in professional situations.

Which one do you hear the most? Or which one will you start using? 👇

And if you want to actually practice speaking (not just watch), I run small group conversation classes every week.

DM me “CLASS” and I’ll send you the details.

Talking about going to the toilet in English can feel… awkward 😅
But it doesn’t have to be.

In this lesson, you’ll learn how to sound natural, polite, and appropriate in different situations—whether you’re at work, on a date, or with friends.

Inspired by a conversation on The Mel Robbins Podcast with Dr. Trisha Pasricha, this is a no-shame, real English lesson about something we all experience… but rarely talk about.

✅ In this video, you’ll learn:

✔️ Polite vs casual ways to say you need the bathroom
✔️ What to say in professional situations (without embarrassment)
✔️ Informal expressions native speakers actually use
✔️ Useful health vocabulary (like diarrhea, bloating, constipation)
✔️ Common mistakes English learners make (and how to fix them)
✔️ Why this topic feels taboo—and how it affects communication

⚠️ A quick note about informal/slang phrases:

Some expressions in this video are informal or slang.
They’re useful to understand, but not always appropriate to use in professional or formal situations.

👉 Always choose your language based on the situation.

💬 Let’s talk!

👉 Which expression do you use most in English?
👉 Do you have a funny or polite euphemism in your language?

Write it in the comments—I’d love to read them!

✨ Bonus question:

Do you know another English euphemism for “going to the toilet” that I didn’t include? 👀

🧠 Remember:

We’re not born embarrassed—
we learn it.

And the more comfortable you are with real-life English,
the more confident you’ll sound.

If you enjoy speaking about taboo topics, you´re welcome in my classroom. Message me to sign up for a group class.
