Prepositions of place in English

Hi guys I'm Nouhaila from Speaking English Fluently and in today's lesson, we're gonna learn how to use prepositions of place in English, so let's get started. 

As you know we have a lot of prepositions of place in English, there is : 
In
On
At
Under
Of
To
Bye
With
For
Over
and these words give us information about the location and the place of things in English sentences, but can also cause a lot of problems to English learners, so in this lesson we'll focus on how you can use them to give data about the location things.

Now look at this sentence:

Am I at the bus? 

Am I in the bus? 

Am I on the bus?

--> Did you find the difference?

these are all correct but they have different meanings 

the first one means that I'm at the exact position of the bus

the second means that I'm inside the bus

And the last one means that I'm above the bus 

In general we use :

at : when we are talking about an POINT place 

for example : 

                                        at the wooden door

                                         at the right corner

                                       at the end of the page

                                                in a car

                                              in a house

on : when we are talking about a SURFACE above something

for example :
