Living in a Spanish speaking country definitely helps a lot! I was watching a video recently where this person was saying how some people move to another country but they don't grasp the language as much as they would have "expected" to, she pointed out it's because they don't hang around with locals or experience the local culture. They instead rely on services and people who speak their own language (often english)
I have learned a lot with your lesson. You are very brave for taking the opción of living in a foreign country. I used to teach Spanish when I was studying at the university. You ever feel You want to have some free help from me, feel free to do it.
Wow 🤩 Hadar it’s nice to hear you speaking Spanish good job 👏 😊❤ You can say :
Como estoy “Aprendi-ENDO, is Present Continuos “.. (this is like ING, in English.)
I’m not a teacher but I hope this helps you to understand what I meant.
Aprender = aprendi- Endo (endo)
Caminar= Camin- ando.
Comer = Comi- endo( endo )
Estudiar= Estudi- ando
Estoy aprendiendo Español❤
❤ I’m glad you’re learning other language. Good for you, We know you are a smart girl and you’ll learn fast , 💪🏽
I was touched when I listened to you speaking spanish. Spanish is my mother tongue and I'm learning English listening to your videos 😊
Saludos 👋🏻
Best wishes
More of that soon I hope!!
@@hadar.shemesh podrías crear un grupo con algunos de nosotros que somos hispano hablantes y así podamos ayudarte...
Touching 😊 Every word about experiencing a new language (I prefer it to "learning") resonates deeply, dear Hadar. From my experience, I've found that my "secret sauce" for language acquisition is fully adopting it as part of my identity. Through it, I turned German from being a "foreign" language into my dominant one.
The less "foreign" you feel within, the less "foreign" others perceive you. I don't feel like the "same person" when speaking different languages. It used to be strange, but it's not anymore.
Thanks to your pronunciation and prosody coaching, I became even more aware of the soul of language and had a true breakthrough in English.
I'm genuinely ecstatic about your Spanish adventure! And, as you always remind us, embrace "Communication over perfection." 😇
¡Que tengas un día lleno de sonrisas y alegría! 🌞
Your Spanish is awesome, Hadar!!! ❤ ¡Felicitaciones! All my love from La Plata, Argentina!
😁😁😁
Sending love back!
❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊@@hadar.shemesh
I'm thrilled to know that Spanish is your goal. I think I can speak for everyone in here when I say that we want to be part of this journey. I am a native speaker, and when I think about what it would be like to learn Spanish, I feel like I am facing a giant because of the many conjugations. You're one of the best speech coaches I know, and I'm confident you'll master this new language.
😍🥰🤩No puede ser Hadar!!!! Que bonito se te escucha el español!!
Seeing someone going through the process of learning a language is always fascinating to me. It's like seeing someone going from speaking like a child to getting to know their full grown personalities. I hope to see your progress in future videos!
Estoy seguro que vas a lograrlo. Estoy orgulloso de ti Hadar. Yo eh aprendido mucho ingles gracias a ti, asi que te deseo mucha suerte! Saludos desde México.
I'm sure you're gonna make it I'm proud of you Hadar. I've learned a lot of english because of you, so i wish you a lot of luck 😊
Greetings from Mexico
I am teaching ESL as a volunteer and planning to start teaching as a business-AND I’m learning Spanish. It’s really interesting having just taken courses on teaching English to learn another language.
Jajajaja, me encanta tu español! Cualquier duda que tengas sobre alguna palabra, no dudes en decirme. If you have any questions about Spanish, don't hesitate to tell me. I am from Argentina ❤ hahaha
The way you're approaching the language is really interesting, Hadar, I find it clever. Your pronunciation is impressive, I hope you find a teacher that adapts to your necessity real soon.
DeepL is a more accurate translator than Google's, I think it could be helpful.
I'm Colombian but I live here in Barcelona as well. I like listening to these two TH-cam channels: AprendemosJuntos2030 & Teresa Baró, comunicación de éxito. They touch topics like communication, psychology, so they're really interesting. Teresa is from Barcelona, she has a perfect diction. It can be hard to understand but I think listening to them could help with getting familiar with the language sounds.
I'm rooting for you and wishing you the best in your relocation process, God bless you. 💛
Dear Hadar, you’re such an inspiration! ❤ Words can’t describe how much I enjoy your relocation diaries. I’m on the verge of pretty serious change in my life as well, and I’m scared. Your diaries help me to stay grounded and have a positive outlook on everything that’s going on around me. I’m trying to be braver and trust that things will eventually fall into place, and your stories pretty much confirm the validity of such approach. If it works for you, I’m sure it’s gonna work for me 😂❤ One of the things I’m REALLY excited to witness is how your experience of being a beginner learner all over again will inspire newer strategies for you as a teacher of English. No matter the target language, I think the early struggles with an entirely new system of communication are pretty universal. I’m sure your Spanish journey is going to open so many doors, both creatively and personally. Keep us updated! And don’t forget to have fun along the way 😊❤
Hello Hadar!!!! as a native Spanish speaker i need to tell you this... There aren't enough words to thank you for everything you've helped (me) us learn and improve every day. Maybe this is the right moment to give back at least a little, for all that you have done for us (for me), so I want to offer myself for anything you want or need in Spanish (from Colombia). At any time, let me know ❤
My dearest Hadar. This experience will be great for you. What I love from you is that you teach English from your experience. Learning a language as adult, will give you an amazing tool to transfer that to your adult English learners. So, you will have an amazing opportunity to help adult English learners from where you have learned as adult.
In a year's time you will speak fluent Spanish, some people have a natural talent, you definitely do.
Learning a new language is so addicting! I simply LOVE it! Spanish is my favorite language!
Excelente!! sigue y celebra tanto los errores como los logros. La frase sería así; " Hola amigos quiero hablarles hoy sobre como estoy aprendiendo español" . La pronunciación y fluidez está genial!!
Teacher Hadar, what a great surprise!. Profesora Hadar, me sorprende gratamente saber que está aprendiendo español.
Hermosa e inteligente, me encanta tu seguridad, admiro mucho tu talento y energía que pones en todo lo que realizas...Un abrazo.
Spanish is so hard Hadar. But I'm so excited to see you in your journey 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Im a native Spanish speaker and a English teacher but I would never imagine to teach Spanish as a second language, it is so complex. English is also my BFF 😂
😍😍
You are getting there... don't forget to have fun while you're learning
¡Me encanta esta sección! Especialmente la del aprendizaje de un idioma nuevo. Es super útil y entretenido escuchar el paso a paso y las técnicas que utilizas. También me parece excelente que compartas tus historias como inmigrante en un país donde no hablan tu idioma materno. Gracias por compartir y éxitos!
Love you Hadar! Never give up! Listening to music in Spanish would help you be relaxed and willing! ❤ Blessings, Everything is gonna be ok!
You said the correct word: TIME,, is really difficult try to learn a language in a busy life, is not impossible, is not an excuse, but definitely is something that we have to solve every single to get the time to learn something new!! But im sure you will achieve your goal,, I recommend to you a Spanish podcast that you could enjoy and use for your practice : “en defensa propia, con erika de la vega”❤😘
Hi Hadar!! I am so happy listening to you speaking Spanish!!! You are the best!! Felicitaciones!!
Holaa, yo soy de España y he aprendido muchísimo a hablar inglés contigo. Mucho ánimo en Cataluña, ¡seguro que lo conseguirás!
Dear. HADDAR, now you are on my shoes, and I know you will over come it, my best wishes❤
Your Spanish sound great. You have a natural voice in Spanish.
You are great, all days in the morning I Take 30 minuts to enjoy your videos because in this moment I'm studing english and I can practice with you.
Catalan and Spanish share 80% of the grammar and vocabulary share a lot Latin rooted vocab! I’m sure that as your learn Spanish and if you get immersed in Catalan, learning it will be a piece of cake!
Welcome to the world of your students, who are working to achieve a new language
I can't imagine how you will be with this recent experience. You already change us with your knowledge, but through this new experience, you will gain a new perspective, and I know this knowledge will become more powerful for you and for us, your students.
I'm so proud for you,I think you are so intelligent and I feel great because you try to learn my native language
¡Bravo Hadar! No te desanimes.
I love these videos! I feel like I can connect with you when you share your stories 🥰
Wow Hadar!!!! You are doing great!!! Love your Spanish, I am a Spanish speaker 👏👏👏
You are wonderful and a great woman, you don't have to learn Spanish to show us anything, you are our English teacher and that is what we want from you and you do it great
Qué bien 😀. I love that you live in my country. Barcelona es genial.
Thank you for being so vulnerable with us, Hadar! Learning a language is so tough, and I think it is beautiful that you, as a teacher, are able to connect with your students in this way! I have no doubt that this journey is going to help you grow even more as a teacher!
I recently started learning Chinese because most of my English students are Chinese speakers. I am doing this for two reasons. 1) I wanted to make this personal connection with my students by being able to know just a bit of their native language 2) I wanted test out the new approach to teaching languages that I wanted to start implementing as a teacher. I felt very convinced by the effectiveness of this method, but I figured the only way to know for sure was to try to experience it as a student. And this method (the Natural Approach / comprehensible input...combined with "circling") is incredible!! I wish that I could sit down and share it with you in person, but if you want just a taste of it, I could send you a link to a TH-cam video (or a few) in which it is being implemented just to see if it might be a good fit for you! (I am already fairly fluent in Spanish because I live in Guatemala, but I found some great Spanish teachers on TH-cam that teach using this method so that I can share it with others!)
Love your Spanish !!! ❤ and as a follower I do not expect you get Spanish immediately. Everything takes time and effort !! 🎉good luck with this Spanish journey !!😊
Thank you so much!!
So kind of you
What a nice surprise!!!! Go Hadar!!!!! Me encanta tu español. Saludos desde Cuba
I felt in that way in early nineties. When i started with this language. Lot of things to Say and limited to express. I understand that ...
Wow Hadar¡ Excelente español, you inspire by sharing your progress in this complicated language¡
Your talk about learning new language have motivated me in my English, you are inspiring person 💥
It is an excellent way to describe how a person feels when he or she cannot communicate properly with others. I have been in that situation countless times.
¡¡Lo lograrás!! Vamos , muy bien amiga 😸
Muy bien Hadar !! Lo haces fenomenal !!! Why did you choose Barcelona and not other cities like Madrid or Valencia?
It's me again!! And this is because I am so excited and happy listening to you and I noticed that you have improved a lot!! This way as you are, so social, will help to you to speak Spanish faster than the media of people, and it is because you are in need to be social right now.
Siiiiiii, ella hablando espanol oseaaaaaa😍😍😍😍😍good for you Hadar. siiiii I love your Spanish.
I understand Hadar.I know how you fell...I was in this situation 10 years ago in Paris and now, it's just a good souvenir.
Now, I would like to do the same in English. Very hard for me.
Thanks to be here for us!
I love your entusiasm Hadar, you can do it, you're so brave, and inovative in that you love❤ I'm happy for you, and wish you all the best❤
I’m from Mexico . I feeling like you with English speakers . I want to speak like Spanish lenguaje , but all the words are stock on my mind . I really understand you 😂 . But you Can do it Hadar. I love you 😘
Your spanish sounds very good. You are going to make it for sure. Your awesome and I love learning English with Your videos. Saludos desde ciudad de México
Hola amiga. I am very proud of your accomplishments, Hadar. I am sure you will be able to speak Spanish fluently soon. You do not need to learn Catalan. I am a Venezuelan teacher currently living in Spain, trying to make a decent life for myself as it was almost impossible in my own country. You are clever and perseverant. I have learned a lot from your free videos. Thank you for inspiring people to learn. I appreciate your contribution to my English improvement.
Adore these Friday updates of your journey, Hadar! Keep pushing forward, sending you all the love and support. I admire you, your determination inspires me endlessly!❤
Author Rojas Contreras describes translation as an Arithmatic of Loss. You say you are doing your best to want to learn but, she says there is gutteral emotion in the space between the perception and production of language. The sights and sounds of the life you left behind must be bridged to learn Spanish and many things left unsaid. Arrieros somos, y en el camino andamos.
Hadar, it's amazing. I heard you speaking Spanish. You are very smart girl and surely you are going to learn quickly. Because Spanish is my language I'm happy to heard it in your voice. I'm not your student, but every day I enjoy hearing your podcasts. Now I can speak more fluently listen you. I am living in New Jersey. Go ahead that you can do it. Shabbat Shalom! ❤❤❤
Woooow... That was so... GREAT to hear your spanish. Sound like... you've always... talked about it. FELICIDADES!!!
Incredible, your English being gently touched by Spanish... I wish you the best in the new life and learning process
! Hadar Spanish language is a true Revolution in the world !
Much encouragement Hadar, thank you for sharing your experiences. I really like how you deal with language problems. Congratulations from Madrid
I love this My Relocation Diaries, always happy and excited when I saw there is one new episode 😍❤
Well I hope that experience helps you a lot to understand many of your students that literally are learning a new language without being exposed to it. You know the shyness frustration feel less, etc but all of that will pass you will pass bad experiences (lucky you you are learning a language where people are friendly not like the English language where its culture is not that warmth to be open to others) but with the years all of that will pass and will communicate in the new language.
Hi Hadar! I'm a native Spanish speaker in Argentina 🇦🇷 and I only got in contact with real English when I was already an adult. With that said, dough I don't speak Catalán nor neutral Spanish, however I'd love to help!
So glad to hear you speaking in Spanish, Hadar!!! Sure it'll be your buddy 😅💪🏽 and being yourself.
Don't hesitate to ask help from your Spanish speakers students ✋🏽 I'll very happy to help.
Send you love ❤
Hadar, I confess I'm addicted to your diaries! Exposing yourself to a completely new language and sharing your experiences with us is so generous of you. This is a new approach to improve our English through your Spanish learning which I'm especially enjoying as a Spanish speaker. Thanks and looking to meet you in Barcelona if that's possible! BTW: I'm open to be part of your speaking partner endless list 😂 Javi G
Jajajjajaja omg, Hadar you're amazing!!! 😊😊😊😊 you are the reason why I want to improve my English as much as possible 🎉🎉
You don't have any responsabilities to us, Hadar! You should listen Spanish as much as you can... use your dead time to do it! The brain needs to acquire the language first to be able to speak it... I'm 46, mum of two kids of 8 and 12 years... and I'm learning Spanish too from scratch! It's my third language actually. My mother tongue is Italian, then thanks to you I started to improve English in 2020... after two years I added French and now Spanish... and I'm improving all of three languages everyday! I try to do something everyday... this is the key... but to start speaking, you your brain needs to acquire the sound of the language by listening... You can do it, believe me! I'm doing it being in Italy you can for sure doing it being in Barcelona! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻❤❤❤
dispite to what is happening to our people in Qaza but Hadar will remain my ever beloved teacher.
my greetings from wounded Sudan
Your Spanish is absolutely lovely. What a great surprise listening to you in Spanish 😍😍😍
Yasss Que bueno escucharte hablar en mi lengua materna. Es muy lindo escucharte, espero que la paciencia y la exposición constante te acompañen. Best of luck!
Hadar, you are going to succeed !!! I'm sure 😘😘
Buenos tardis, Hadar Muchas gracias for being an awesome tea he r❤❤
I love how you are working the tools in a new language, so we are sharing the path of learning together.❤ that is how I feel in English; wanting to say something that gets stuck in my body because I do not find the words to put it out and share it.
Hey! Muy bien por ti! Felicidades 🎉
Thank you for inspiring us. You're so adorable!
Muy bien!!! Me ancanta escucharte en español!! 👏👏👏
Hello, there! What an amazing life journey you and your family are going through. You already know that you are my heroine, don't you? Well, I was speaking with my friend Romina (we are both Argentinians, but now she lives in Spain) about life and family... when I said to her: "Making the decision to join New Sound was the first decision in a chain of other important decisions in my life" Y:-)
We love people that are trying to speak spanish, I think that it is big difference, so we always have patience to speak with somebody that it is just learning, we appreciate their effort. I think that it is different with english, that all the world are suppossed to know it...
Thank you, I learn English with your videos. As a Spaniard I can assure you that your pronunciation in Spanish is very good.
I never thought i'd ever hear you talking in my native language 😊 i've been following you for a long time and your videos have helped me! Hope you can find resources as good as yours for your learning remember you can do this!!!!
Thank you!!!!❤️❤️❤️
Hola Hadar!
Me gustó mucho tu comentario: 'create my own curriculum for learning' discovering the things that we need the most especially when time is not on our side. Muy buen consejo!!! Gracias como siempre. Que sigas mejorando tu español 😊
Another great episode! 👏🏻
So good! 👏🏻👏🏻 Congrats on your Spanish journey Hadar.. I can totally relate to the “creating my own curriculum for learning”. I did it with French and it’s so effective! You can create your own Sprints, tongue twisters, etc
Good luck! Soon you’ll be sharing your podcast in Spanish! 💪🏻👏🏻💙
With love,
Leia 🩷
I just love your Spanish as much as I love your English! Proud of you as always ❤
You’re the best!!
Dear Hardar, your video was very very helpful to me. Thanks for making this.

Your Spanish is Stunishing
Felicidades Hadar
You're amazing ❤❤❤❤
Muy bueno tu español. Felicitaciones y a seguir adelante!!
I moved to Spain in 2016, and I know exactly how you feel as far as not being able to express yourself in the way you want to. Very often I have to adjust what I want to say in order to just get it out. There is often that feeling of wanting to explode when the words won't come. But let me say this. It sounds like you have all the resources at your disposal to advance very quickly. You sound very motivated to progress quickly and I imagine you will. I look forward to following your progress. Best of luck!
Thank you for sharing!! ❤️❤️
I understand very well this feeling that you mentioned in the video...when you need to say and express something and you can't find the way...😊is so frustated....happened to me so often in my English journey. You have a lot of resources to got this. Tu español será muy bueno como tu ingles.
Tu historia ahora es parte de mi grupo de convesacion en Ingles los sabados. Todos somos imigrantes y hemos vivido esto que tu estas viviendo, sobre todo la parte de emigracion. Podras lograr hablar espanol muy pronto. Nosostros aprendemos ingles en Ohio, USA.
Estás contando la historia de mi vida viviendo en Australia sabiendo hablar en el Myles de hecho muy bien pero sin saber hacer buenos comentarios o chistes como lo hago en mi propio lenguaje. Quiero ser tan cool como lo soy en español 🫠
Your Spanish sounds really beautiful. Keep it up..!
