Modal Verbs in essays.

It is traditional to use modal verbs in English language essay writing. So it is very useful to be able to use them correctly.

I found this website has a simple, yet easy to understand explanation.

The key point is that after a modal verb, the simple form of the verb is used.

For example,

I can do the washing tomorrow.

After 'can' the verb is 'do' not 'to do'


Another example.

I should work on my assignment tonight.

After 'should' comes 'work' not 'to work.'

Hope that helps.

Speaking practice

A student was asking me about speaking practice and I found this on the SITEC facebook page, which everybody should go and like BTW
