In my last post I try to teach 11 common similes in English. However, as some students still feel that they need more practise, I have decided to produce this post too. This post contains a visually appealing demonstration of all the 11 similes, a short film to learn the phrases and a dictation exercise.

Similes – practice

[/su_heading][su_spacer] If you know all the similes print out the following mind map and complete it with the similes. You should keep the printout and use it for future reference.
