Why do people from 5th world countries such as Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan generally use the application? I've used it many times but I've never met a European. I wonder why? Unfortunately the quality is very low.
I read a book that really helps me, now I know the secret how to learn to speak english quickly. The only thing that keeps us to still not learn to speak english is our mind. If you afraid to speak english because you think you will commit mistake, then sorry you will never learn to speak english. Trying to speak english doesn't mean to be perfect just like we learned in school. But speaking in english is to communicate, don't be afraid to make an error. Speak in english forget the "one correct answer" rule that school taught us, your study to communicate and not to impress your teacher. Your not in school anymore, use what ever you learned in reality. Just like me i never afraid if i have mistake in my sentences, im not native english speaker. So what im afraid? Im just a learner, means its natural to have a mistake. Just speak again and again in english, THE FACT IS.. IT IS BETTER TO TRY AND TRY AND MISTAKE AND TRY AGAIN... THAN NOTHING. So you know the answer why you didn't learn or progress, because of the wrong mindset. Be always positive, don't think of any bad things. Your focus is to learn. ❤
Words written with the heart ❤
That's a great takeaway from the lesson and you described it all beautifully!🙌
Can you please share some tips to improve writing skills?
what kind book the you read
Could you share with us the book you read in order to overcome the speaking skill
I’m just 14 years old and I am also an English speaker and I learned that by myself.
I’m from Angola and here it’s pretty hard to find a child like me who speaks English because in my country we only speak Portuguese
I appreciate so much your videos
You inspire me so much 🎉❤
Thanks so much for choosing us to help you with your English studies. Thanks for sharing your comment with us. It means a lot to know that our videos are inspiring for you!
I undertstood the 90 % of the conversation. I am proud of me . Thanks guys you're amazing
Aww yeah! You shoud be proud, indeed!
That's amazing! Keep up the great work, my friend. ❤️
Salute..
if somebody speak about chuches or monuments you don't know nothing
an idiom is pretty wide
Oh thanks , I am speechless, you're so clever 🤣😂
I started learning English 2 years ago, but I’ve been speaking English since January of this year. This is really interesting, especially as 4 language after Turkic languages and Slavic languages
I am a native English speaker, living in the US, but I am learning the Persian language. Farsi, to be specific. In my language adventure, I am finding that my searches for how to become more fluent in a language I am acquiring has brought me videos for people who are learning English. Since language is language, and I am struggling with the issue of translating in my head, I decided to watch this video.
Thank you so much for this! I will try to apply your methods to my practice of learning Persian! I subscribed instantly when I saw you playing guitar! I also play guitar and I've been comparing the process of learning a musical instrument to learning a language as well! One thing that I noticed is that I struggled to improve much with guitar as long as I kept thinking of myself as "learning to play". I started to play along with other musicians and felt overwhelmed by it, much like practicing to speak with people in my target language.
Once I changed my perspective to "I play guitar. I may not be great at it yet, but I am a guitarist" everything changed in my playing. That is where I am in my Persian... Wanting to stop thinking that I am "learning" Persian and just say "I speak Persian and I will continue to improve". Best wishes to you!
I’m native English speaking. But I am struggling with similar issues in speaking French. This video helps a lot to language learners in general!
Hey Bryan! Thanks for your comment. Exactly! This method works for any language.
Can you speak with me as a native speaker and help me get better at speaking?
@@sahelnikzad5498 Do you want to practice english with anyone ? Does he have to be a native speaker necessarily?

Great podcast, as always!!!
You take learning an instrument as an example. It is true that if you want to play an instrument better, you need time to practise. It can apply to learn a new language. The process may be frustrated but if you can overcome all difficulties, you can succeed. Thanks for you video.

Thank you Davi! Thanks for watching!
thanks for making me feel more comfortable at the time to speak, I've really struggled to get rid of insecurity, your videos have been a crucial part in my english journey to be fluent. Onthe other hand, as far as I'm concerned love at first sight It's probably an illusion that may trick people into thinking they were in love from day one, but find real love is a process that take longer.
Oh, we're so happy to hear that, Sebastian! Great to hear that you've been on the path to achieving your desired result. And we're flattered to be part of it! ❤️
And thanks for sharing your insights, that was interesting!
Hey Sebastian
Glad to know your great response specially on love at first site
Looking for one more thoughtful comments
I purchased the fluent with Friends course two years ago, started learning continuously for 10 months and stopped when there's still 4 episodes to go, even though my English comprehension increased drastically, before the course I couldn't hear a thing when you guys speaking. But now I could understand ~95% of what you're saying. That's really amazing, isn't it? Thanks for the course and all the clips you guys've made!

34:00 Uh, I didn't expect to hear something about germany at the end of the video. Really interesting that "Zettelkasten" there is used. And yeah learning a new language or keep up the process can be challenging sometimes. But I found some ways to actually have fun to improve and see myself as a still getting better at English, in my daily life. (Yeah! 😊) I hope everyone who is seeing that have a great day and thanks guys for the helpful and motivational (idk if this is word is correct) video. And to all learners like me you got this and you will be successful, I know that ❤ Bye bye from GE 🖤❤️💛

I dont believe in love at first sight because you can only evaluate a persons appearence but you cant understand their insides.love is a very sacred feelings.i think its meaning increases as it deepens.

If it's at first glance, it's just a passion, just a feeling from the depths of our biology, neurochemical reactions that have driven us crazy.
Love is classical music, passion is rock!

That's really nice podcast.I am English leaner a few months ago.This vedio make me fearless to speak in English.
Thank you for watching our lesson!
i would agree with Thiago, that love should be developed. But some kind an attraction happens at first sights, that's true 💘
Hello by the way I am also a beginner here like you.And I am still in the process of learning my English language too.
To my best of knowledge of why we're not improving our English language is maybe simply because we try to use some difficult vocabulary words in constructing ideas in our head. Which is not healthy for the beginner to the point that you get lost in your ideas of what you are supposed to say.The simpler the better in order for you to learn quickly,so that learning the English language regularly will be more interesting for you.The more enjoyable it is for you the better result you will get day by day. Once again this is only my opinion nothing personal and I'm not trying to be like a teacher here. I give credit to you sir because of your videos I learned a lot from it and you especially.
Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts! We totally agree - the simpler the better, and once you feel confident - you'll raise the bar!
For me it's really hard to let go the translation in my head because I've being perfectionist person and it really sucks but thank you for the advice or tips i know that i could used it.
i really love this channel
Happy to have you with us!

I think we all English learners should have a group chat to make progress because we all are here for the same reason.Don't forget everything has its own way to step next level.This aim we wish to achive is always in our mind and I think some of us has adopted it so much that we see it as a plant.I want you always should keep it our heart and really wishing learn it.

First of all thank you for your valuable advices, In our city have not like your understandings. It’s gonna be frustrating maybe tough etc. “be okay with speaking like a child” I really agree with that point but In Turkey’s peoples lives hard times when they try to find a new job, because They require very fluent in English with suddenly from our people. And we know that’s gonna be long process that gonna fluent but I agree we can start think like a baby. I hope our people’s perception changes.
I just love the word "counterintuitive" and I do not know why XD
😊 Thank you for watching!
Great video!
Awesome! We're glad you enjoyed it, walterquiros! Thanks for watching and learning with us! ❤️
Learning any language is skill
So if you want to learn English or any language else just listen and read and speak and write more and more and more finally you get better
There's not a magical way to do that in one day ....just be a patient
Exactly! Thanks for watching the video.
I realy like this video to improve my English everyday
Great to hear this! Thanks for learning with us!

Thank for learning with us, candraputraalim! ❤️❤️
I'm actually studying to be an English as a second language teacher, and I must say, overtranslating is nothing else but bad habit, cause I can think in English, but still I try to translate everytime
Your accent is beautiful. I could almost hear the conversation. Thanks.
Yeah i'm agree
that is so clear..even for beginer English Listener like me
Thanks for listening!
for my opnion, i didnt believe love at first sight cause u can reach love when you develop your desire or interest toward someone and accept that person who is he/she.

Translating in your head...
Translating in your head is the barrier that makes you unable to speak fluently.

Aww yeah! That’s amazing to hear, andresgovea. Thanks for learning with us and keep up the great work! ❤️
Hello real-life English channel
I am a beginner English learner. While I am trying to speak and write something in English I face problems in using Grammar. It is good if you make some podcasts on grammar topics like tenses, prepositions, and articles. Or suggest apps or books for learning grammar. It would be very helpful for learners who are stuck in grammar.
Thank you
Hi there niehaaiman, thanks for writing!
We do approach grammar on many of our lessons! By the way, we have a few that are more focused on it. You can check this playlist: th-cam.com/video/NeaQDXWxdxw/w-d-xo.html
Hope it helps!
I enjoyed this video
We’re glad that you enjoyed it, johnwestlizaire. Thanks for watching our videos and learning with us! Subscribe to our channel for more! ❤️
What's up, buddy. My name is Victor and I'm an English student. English as a second language.
Ok. I think I am in the A2 to B1. Anyway.
As far as I am concerned, thinking in English without translating is impossible for a beginner. I lived it and I know how difficult it was. Nowadays, I feel the pleasure of reading without translating. I respect you so much.
Hey Victor, thanks for writing!
Not necessarily! As you start mastering some vocabulary and expression, you can already deliberately think in English. And with deliberate practice and time, you will be taking it to the next level. ;)
Thanks for learning with us, my friend! ❤️
That was awesome. Clear and simple conversation. Sometimes when we start to learn English we worry a lot about “ speak fast” and I think that not point. The most important is speak clearly
true
thanks
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching our videos and learning with us. ❤️
Whilst I am already fluent in English, I find that your advice can apply to any language learning!
Thank you.
Also, you both have lovely voices!
That's great to hear Stella!
And thanks for your kind words. ❤️
