Complete the forgetful roommate's sticky note by choosing the correct prepositions.
I am walking _________________________ the grocery store right now because we have no milk. I left my spare keys _________________________ home on the kitchen counter, and the shopping list is still _________________________ my jacket pocket. Please don't lock the door!

The correct answers are to, at, and in.

to is used for movement or direction toward a destination (walking to the grocery store).

at is used for a specific location or point, like the fixed expression "at home."

in is used when something is inside an enclosed space (inside a pocket).

Preposition

  • interested in — ❌ interested on
  • good at football — ❌ good in football
  • depend on — ❌ depend of
  • arrive at the station — ❌ arrive to the station

Prepositions link nouns to the rest of the sentence: time (at 5pm), place (in London), manner (with care), abstract (afraid of). Most are idiomatic — the "correct" preposition must be memorised with each verb/adjective combination.

Rule: there is no universal rule. English prepositions are learned by combination: interested IN, good AT, depend ON, afraid OF. Your native language's equivalent will often mislead.

A1 | Elementary | Beginners

  • My name is Anna. — present simple of be
  • Where is the station? — basic *wh-*question
  • I have two brothers. — possession with have
  • She likes coffee. — third-person -s

These are A1 sentences — the starting level of the CEFR framework. At A1 you can introduce yourself, ask and answer simple personal questions, and handle basic everyday transactions using present tense, be/have/do, and core vocabulary.

If you can say these but freeze at normal speaking speed, you're solidly A1 — and that's exactly where to start.

Medium

  • If I were you, I would apologise. — one rule (second conditional), but distractors like was tempt you
  • Answers require active thought, not instant pattern recognition
  • Vocabulary and context are realistic, not artificially simplified
  • Usually tests one rule, but the wrong answers are plausible

Medium marks middle-difficulty challenges: A2B1, one rule tested, but with realistic distractors that require genuine understanding.

Use "Medium" when Easy feels too obvious but Hard feels overwhelming. This is where most productive learning happens — the sweet spot of difficulty.
