Idioms and idiomatic phrases are challenging! Even for native English speakers like us, there are idioms we still do not know yet and we are constantly adding more to our arsenal. The power of idioms cannot be overstated, though, since they bring about immediate familiarity and synergy. The correct use of one of these may allow people build an implicit bond and common ground.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree from Carnegie Mellon University
Bachelor's Degree from University of Michigan -- Ann Arbor
I have lived in the United States for a majority of my life. In the academic world of undergraduate and graduate school, I have had plenty of positive exposure to idioms used to establish rapport. After that, while in the workforce, I attained a deep understanding of more rare idioms that actually helped further my career in various ways. I wish to share my expertise with students to acquire another, more rare level of language proficiency.
