I've spent the past 10 years learning Spanish. From knowing literally zero Spanish, to speaking Spanish every single day (plus moving to Mexico and falling in love with a latina), these are the things I wish I had known when I first started learning the language. Thank you for watching, you're awesome :) New videos every Saturday.

👋 Hola, I'm Nate. I used to not know any Spanish at all, and I had no interest in learning the language. I thought learning Spanish would be boring, a waste of time, and would provide no value to my life. Then I started taking Spanish classes in high school and everything changed for me. I struggled with learning the language a lot at first, but thanks to my teachers and my Spanish speaking friends, they helped make the learning process fun. Within a few months, I had gotten to a conversational level, but more important, I had become a more confident person. The real win for me, though, was the friendships I made and strengthened. I discovered that not only did I have higher self esteem, but being out in the real world with people, whether old friends or new ones I met, made me feel more alive and connected with the world around me. Now it's my goal to create videos that make you smile and inspire you to learn Spanish or another language!

I have a B.A. in Spanish that i got in 1993. The key to learning how to speak Spanish is to make sure you never worry about what you have said being "right" or "wrong" just keep speaking and you will never regret it!
Getting mistaken for someone who lives in the country of your target language is such a thrill! When I was in Egypt speaking Arabic, many people thought that I was living/working in Cairo (as a foreigner). In fact, my first time in the Middle East as this short 3-week trip. I was glowing! :-D I even had someone approach me for directions, which I couldn't help out with, but that was a nice ego boost too.
🥹wow Arabic is the other language I hope to learn this is epic
@@dreamleemahI can help
I'm a native speaker
Syrian tho not Egyptian
ok

Gringo here. I’ve been working on my Spanish for almost 7 years. I love the language and Latin American culture. La gente es de Dios, amable, con corazón, humilde y generosa.
You’re the best Nate. I took Spanish in high school but never took it seriously. Over the pandemic I was actually able to get conversationally fluent and I your channel was a big help in that journey. Really appreciate what you do and sigue así!
Nate really finished Spanish and is waiting for Spanish 2 to come out. I aspire to be like Nate 🙏
En México ahora la primera vez y habla español y es muyyyy increíble, estoy aprendiendo español!!!!!!!!
Like anything else, learning Spanish is the most difficult and frustrating in the beginning. But if you push through for long enough to have a simple foundation of vocabulary and understanding of the how the grammar works, like maybe intermediate level, it becomes very fun and enjoyable. Studying isn’t usually the fun part, but it’s all well worth it when you get to start using what you know with real people.
Bullshit you don't need grammar, dreaming Spanish works in 600 hours no books no grammar
I understood the first part of the question at 6:02. Nate you said “Si tú hubieras nacido en un país de hablas hispana como te redes de español. Como podrías hacer eso desde tu casa.
When you said “hispana” I thought it was spelled like this “espana” like the country “España” lol. But I realized it was “hispana”.
But my responds is, like you’ve taught us “consume a lot of music, and speak to ourselves.”
Just found your page. Very helpful. Good suggestions and stories.
Great video with some of the greatest language learning advice I have heard in the last 40 years!! I learned German as a young soldier in the 80s when I was in posted Germany, and learned it fluently without even thinking much about it. It just happened as they say to the point where native speakers would often asked me if I am from around Munich area. Fast forward 40 years and I applied the same concepts and principles when I started learning Spanish a few years ago, but with the Internet it's a game changer. Like you said ego is everything. Now days I speak Spanish every day all day with my Colombian wife and I'm continually asking questions. We never stop learning!
Suerte a todos ;))
Thanks, Nate🙌 still motivating me👏
💯 Everything you are saying is the same principles I use for myself, as well I tell EVERYONE this! You must speak, Study and listen everyday! ¡Dale Compa Nate!
Nate, muchas gracias por todo. Me encanta tu canal! Saludos desde Dinamarca!
Use ai
Que barbaro! Wild dude! Wild!
The mindset shift from “winning” a language to “never stopping a language” (it’s an infinite game, after all!) helped me to really enjoy the day to day cultivation of my español. ¡Gracias por este video!
¡Felicitaciones a mi profesor por su décimo aniversario aprendiendo español! Nate habla mejor español que la mayoría de los miembros de mi familia que hablan español como idioma principal. ¡Hecho!
Good information and advice.
I've incidentally been doing all these things in my Spanish learning journey and I totally agree
Thanks for the video
Just seen your video with Xaio
Wish I could get lessons from someone like you lol
100 %. You have to be willing to be humbled constantly.
Great tips :)
I'm about to travel to Mexico for the first time to meet my Wife's extended family, and I'm nervous because I know very little Spanish. I've tried learning in the past, but I think due to my Traumatic Brain Injury from my deployment in 2010-2011 it makes it more difficult for me to retain things. Hopefully being in Mexico for a week and a couple days will help me a little bit more.
Amigo Fresa Salvaje era una de mis favoritas cuando tenía 13/14 años 😊
Best way is to watch TH-cam videos of topics you are interested and comment them. As native spanish speaker who wants to learn english I agree ego can hold you back.
Nate puedes hacer videos enseñando Ingles seria una gran idea 🎉
God I love this channel.
La respuesta: Seguramente seguiré enganchado a esos programas cutres que veo.
good advise Nate
Hoy aprendi algo nuevo contigo Nate, muchas gracias. Siempre supe que la noria era la rueda con la que se sacaba agua de los pozos; nunca la asocie con la Ferris Wheel. En Cuba; donde naci; la conociamos como Estrella Giratoria. Like you've said, we always learn something new, even in our own mother's tongue. Surprisingly though, some of us claim to speak 20 languages. Vampires maybe? 300+ years old?
Símon! Tímon!
I hope I can apply this to ANY LANGUAGE.
No puedo creer que el profe conozca a Camilo Sesto !😂
Today is day one for me. My goal is by August 12th ( My Birthday ) be able to be a bit better than a beginner
My issue is that I am generally a quiet individual, preferring not to talk excessively. As I have been learning Spanish through music, TH-cam pranks on the street, and the app Busuu, it has not been very helpful for me. Although my listening comprehension has significantly improved, it doesn't assist me when I want to express myself, as I often lack the appropriate words, experiencing something like temporary amnesia in those moments. Moreover, not speaking much makes it challenging for me to engage in conversations, as I've noticed that Spanish speakers tend to be quite talkative, and one must sometimes interrupt them to contribute one's own thoughts; this is based on my personal experience so far.
La primera vez ordené beber en español en México
I wonder if Nate knows Ana Saia. 🤔
Ive spent the last two years learning spanish and french. My doctor and the other patients are helping me. He wants me to sound Cuban because he says i sound like im a super proper stuffy Spaniard. 😂
Oh y mi cancion favorito es Mi mayor venganza por India. Mi doctor siempre me rire sobre esto.
One thing that I’m finding is that all my Spanish-speaking friends here in America try to always speak English! I’m not sure why, maybe because it’s our native language or maybe because they’re embarrassed by the way I talk. It’s a real bummer and frustrating sometimes.
It’s not you …I’m sure they appreciate the effort …it’s just that a lot of people are impatient
It's not embarrassment. Most of the time it's just the issue of not being able to understand what you said. It's easier to just find people who don't speak English fluently and try learning through them.
Duolingo has taught me how to say my name and smile
Couldn’t smile before duolingo? German?
@@shamicentertainment1262 Nope, I couldn’t. Me llamo Miel 🤠
nate i would really like it if you give us some free spanish lessons because im a teen at home wanting to learn for free

¿si tú hubieras nacido en un país de habla hispana, como te rodearías de español? ¿Como podrias hacer eso desde tu casa?
If you had been born in a Spanish-speaking country, how would you surround yourself with Spanish? How could you do that from home? Mi respuesta es... Pues, en primer lugar, estaría rodeado de eso todo el tiempo, así que creo que sería bastante fácil ya que todo en mi vida tendría que ver con español.
Hiiiiijaaaaaa!

Well man I’m learning English after 30 years I’m still learning
0:26 no way
6:00 Si tu hubieras nacido en un país de habla hispana; ¿cómo te rodearías de español? pues no hace falta mucho. todo el mundo a tu alrededor hablaría español, la tv, la radio, los carteles de la calle, las etiquetas de los productos, el periódico, las revistas, los libros, todo estaría en español, justamente porque estoy en un país de habla hispana. Es lo normal.
Luis Miguel? An old half-Italian singer? :)

Funny that everything you said about speaking Spanish can be applied to English and most likely every language.
Bueno, hermano...me rodearía con algunas cosas. Primer que nada...cambiaría toda mi tecnología al español...para que cuando yo esté solo, que siga rodeado. Segunda, el alcance a la gente habla hispana sería 100x veces más fácil...y nada más yéndome para pedir café o para un restauraunte...estaría practicando y así, estaría rodeado.

In my experience native Spanish speakers are not that kind to stop everything they are doing to help you speak Spanish. My experience is that they tell you English speak English, or just continue responding in English when you are speaking Spanish.
Go to a different non Spanish speaking country or learn to say solo hablo un poco español y ruso. Then they’ll speak to you in Spanish.
I tell them to humor me and keep speaking Spanish . They can answer in English if they must. Best practice is at the laundromat. Listening to the gossip and asking questions of others.
This whole video could be applied to learning any language lmao
Sana all nalang no? 😅 Algunos Principiantes quieren tener una novia latina jajajaja 😂
There’s some subtly to your Spanish question that I don’t understand. Obviously I’d be familiar with Spanish if I am from a Spanish speaking country hypothetically. EXPLÍCAME NATE
long story short hes saying surround yourself at home as if you were in a spanish speaking country
Very pretty girl you have there! Ring time!!
If you can't speak street spanish you don't speak Spanish my boy

No offence, but there is no way someone would truly mistake you for being Mexican, they were just being nice. Your gringo accent is obvious from miles away. But you can still speak well even with an accent, it's not important at all.
Some people are Just bad with accents tho. Like that lady coulda been
