The GiveMeSomeEnglish Library of Grammar Videos
These are the videos (and lessons) that I recommend to my students when they need to learn or review a certain aspect of grammar. This is a growing list, so if it is not as comprehensive as you would like, then just blink your eyes, and I’m sure it will be bigger.
If you know of a video that should be showcased here, please let me know. Any and all recommendations are greatly appreciated.

Gerunds & Infinitives
See “Nouns” below
(yes, that’s right. I said “Nouns”. Contrary to popular belief “Gerunds” and “Infinitives” are not “Verbs”. They are instead, “Nouns” and “Noun Phrases” which are created from “Verbs”, for situations, wherein an action or state of being is the “Subject” of a sentence, therefore, functioning as a “Noun” or “Noun Phrase”.) 😉
