talking about a phrasal verb look into

look into something so I want to ask you

first what do you think this phrasal

verb means what’s your heart say about

this phrasal verb I’m going to give you

a sample sentence and maybe that will

give you a little hint as to what this

means my simple sentence is

this is not true by the way just a

sentence my car broke down yesterday so

I need to look into a good mechanic my

car broke down yesterday so I need to

look into a good mechanic or I need to

look into finding a good mechanic what

do you think

what does look into look into mean are

we actually looking into physically

looking into something hmm not exactly

we’ve got some good suggestions from our

friends live who are here live Muhammad

says find one says to look for search

for something searching for something

searching lots of people say searching

or finding you got it it is searching

and also maybe researching a bit you

need to find some more information about

a good mechanic because your car is

pretty valuable so you want to find

someone who will treat your car kindly

and nicely you wanna search and research

for a good mechanic

so today we’re going to practice look

into something together we’re going to

look into this phrasal verb and I hope

that you’ll be able to use it

comfortably and confidently by the end

of our lesson today let’s take a look at

my wonderful clipboard I want to write

the beginning of a sentence and I want

to see if you can finish this sentence

using look into look into let’s let’s

talk about some if sentences potential

sentences if

you want to learn English this is some

advice you could give your friend if you

want to learn English you need to what

could we say you need to look into hmm

let’s practice organ that this is

practicing the sentence structure

because I want to give you some hints

about how you could finish this kind of

sentence maybe your friend says to you

ah Claudia I want to learn English so

Claudio can you give me some advice

about how I can learn English you could

use this sentence well if you want to

learn English you need to and of course

we’ll use today’s phrasal verb look into

but how can we finish this how can we

finish the rest of this sentence you

need to look into we’ve got two options

you need to look into we’ve got practice

more all right we have some suggestions

practice more looking in the dictionary

focusing check out Vanessa’s lessons oh

you’re so nice

I’ll look into a good teacher a good

teacher all Vanessa’s lessons again

you’re so nice all right so let’s use

your suggestions to finish this sentence

in two ways the first way is simply

using a noun so some of you said you

need to look into maybe I’ll use a

different color because it’s fun if you

want to learn English you need to look

into a good teacher great this is just a

noun directly after this you need to

look into a good dictionary you need to

look into a good teacher you need to

look into a method that will work for

you

a good program look into YouTube lessons

this is a noun directly after here we’ve

got a lot of great examples here you

need to look into a good book beautiful

well we have another example here some

people used a verb a verb instead of a

noun so let’s try to do this instead if

you want to learn English you need to

look into finding a good teacher so here

instead of this noun this noun directly

afterwards we have an ING verb and if we

want to talk about grammar technically

this verb is changing into a noun but

don’t stress about that too much let’s

make sure that our verb has I n G ing

this is really important so if you want

to learn English you need to look into a

good teacher you need to look into

finding a good teacher both options are

beautiful grammar great sentence

structure so you’ve got two options and

if you want to make your own sentences

with this maybe there are other options

that you want to try I’ll gladly give

you some feedback so we have some

beautiful examples here Esther hello

Esther she says if you want to learn

English you need to look into listening

to some of the neces listening great

beautiful use of ing here look into

listening eggs says you need to look

into finding an English app on your

phone beautiful advice a lot of good

material out there Ariela says you need

to look into reading books thank you for

using ING I think sometimes in this is a

complex sentence in complex

sentences the second verb can be kind of

complicated what should I use ing know

ing edy what should I use so this is

going to be a clear sentence structure

to help you really use this as much as

possible we have a question from Erie

who says can I say in you cutting out

the T so here look in to look into

should we say look in new and recently I

made a video about words like

interesting or winter that use NT but in

this situation you have found a good

exception because this word is short

it’s most common to say the T so let’s

make sure that we can say look into a

good teacher look into finding a good

book look into finding something so

let’s make sure our pronunciation is

clear with this let’s practice a couple

other examples and I want to ask you to

use this on your own try to make an if

sentence using look into researching

searching for something with passion and

motivation let me give you another

example and then if you have any of your

own feel free to share you can finish

the sentence if you want to be healthy

you should we could say should or need

here look into hmmm what should we look

into if you want to be healthy you

should look into maybe some you should

look into some healthy recipe books you

should look into a diet plan you should

look into

we can also say look into your heart you

should look into yourself and this is

reflecting on yourself why do I want to

be healthy what are some problems in my

life is it mental health is it physical

health you should look into your heart

so this is a little more maybe

metaphysical but you can also say I

looked into my heart and I realized that

I didn’t really have a good motivation

for finding another job so I’m gonna

stay with this job I looked into my

heart this is another way to use this

expression we have some great finish up

final parts to this sentence bye hi dear

says you should look into checking your

weight great way to use ing beautiful

Marco says if you want to be healthy you

should look into eating or exercising

great eating healthy food now bill says

you should look into eating healthy food

good idea Eliza has another sentence if

you want to be a good singer you should

look into a good singing instructor

beautiful and we have one from from

nicely' hello who says if you want to be

healthy you should look into eating more

fruits and vegetables beautiful here

we’re using the verb look into heating

you got it if you want to be healthy you

should look into your brain and your

heart

yeah shinta I agree I think some people

say I want to lose weight I want to be

healthy I want to be healthy but we need

to reflect we need to look into our own

hearts and decide why what’s stopping me

from being healthy right now Giovanna

says if you want to pass the test you

should look into studying more oh great

you should look

to effective study methods beautiful

this is going to help you in a lot of

situations to use complex grammar

beautiful sentence structure and phrasal

verbs at the same time this lesson is

everything all together let’s read a

couple more sentences so that we can

conclude this and then we’ll read it out

loud together jean-jacques says if you

want to be happy you should look into

eating more sweet food yes anyone who

gives me advice and says you should eat

more sweet food I will agree with we

have another sentence that says Oh

Augusto you’re so nice he says if you

want to learn English you should look

into speak English with Vanessa

so here Augusto is using the first

version where he uses a noun

directly after the expression if you

want to learn English you need to look

into speak English with Vanessa we could

say you need to look into learning with

speak English with Vanessa that’s fine

both of these we use exactly the same in

the same situations they’re both used

equally so don’t worry about which one

is more natural which one’s used more

often both of these are great so you’ve

got two options and I hope that today’s

lesson could help you to really focus on

this Senate structure instead of

memorizing look into something else how

can I use this what’s a Senate structure

we’re using it together so if you would

like now to repeat out loud with me

I hope that this will help you to

remember it use some speaking muscles

and feel confident with this phrasal

verb so are you ready to repeat out loud

with me and use it together we’re gonna

have friends all over the world in

Brazil in Canada in Vietnam in Morocco

we’re gonna have friends all over the

world repeating together so feel

confident

feel that you are part of this bigger

movement of people around the world who

are interested who are looking into

learning English naturally yes so let’s

say the sentence together let’s say if I

want to improve my speaking if I want to

improve my speaking because I imagine

that you do if I want to improve my

speaking I need to look into having

confidence important if I want to

improve my speaking I need to look into

let’s add a little word I need to look

into how to have confidence if I want to

improve my speaking I need to look into

how to have confidence it’s a pretty

long sentence actually maybe longer than

our usual repeated sentences at the end

will help if I say you or I all right

want to improve my speaking I need to
