## Resource

Good at. Good in. These two phrases seem simple, right? But a lot of people get confused about when to use each one. Should you say, “I’m good in English,” or “I’m good at English”? And what’s the real difference between these two? If you’ve ever wondered about that, don’t worry. Because that’s what we’re going to look at today. Let’s start with a simple idea that will help you remember everything. We usually use good at to talk about ability or skill. And we use good in to talk about performance in school or social settings or specific situations.
