This advanced vocabulary course is designed to work in tandem with episodes on the US version of Sherlock called 'Elementary', and exercises on my website. You can find more grammar and vocabulary questions here: https://www.skype-lessons.com/advanced-vocabulary/ I advise students to do the following: read the exercises, check any unknown vocabulary, watch the show, answer the questions, and then retell it using the target vocabulary and grammar. The retelling is necessary to activate new phrases in an easy to remember context. Please repeat the vocabulary using this video and the questions which accompany the video. Please subscribe for the whole course. Lessons will be released on a weekly basis. And please answer the following questions: What's the most excruciating pain you have ever experienced? Can you tell me the names of any prolific killers? What are the effects of sleep deprivation? Have you ever donated blood? When was the last time you flagrantly broke the rules at work (or at school)? Complete the sentences with your own ideas: If Sherlock hadn't examined bruises on the corpse...
