Abilities
You can use “good at” or “bad at” to talk about your abilities
and skills
For example, to talk about school subjects: “He’s good at
French.” ; “He’s bad at Physics.”

You can also use “no good at”: “I’m no good at …”

Because “at” is a preposition, you need to follow it with a noun


or a gerund (an “ing” form): “I’m bad at Maths.” ; “He’s good at
English.” ; “You’re good at spelling.”

You can also use “any” in negatives and questions: “I’m not
any good at …” ; “Are you any good at …?”
You can use other adjectives in this way: great at, terrible at,
really bad at.

Or you can use the nouns: expert, brilliant, amazing and


determined. (followed by “at”)
