سلام میتوانید کمک کنید من مهاجرت کنم به استرالیا . من مهارت های فنی دارم . ممنون کمکم کنید .🙏
Love it great video ❤
Don’t lose your mother tongue. Don’t forget her. Teach your future children.
Speak your language as often as possible always.
My mother arrived in Aus as a child with her family and still speaks & writes & understands her mother tongue 65 years later from the Mediterranean region and speaks fluent Aus accent & writes & understands Aus English.
As the youngest in her family she grew up speaking her native tongue with her family and relatives and also learning English at the same time.
Yes it’s true that children learn multiple languages quicker than adults do.
This is the fourth of your vids I have watched. I'm always impressed with the way you methodically apply yourself with a determination to succeed in everything you do in your adopted country. Your Australian English is excellent with a nice trace of Spanish/Argentinian accent, it makes listening to you speak very easy.
It is a case of you have to.
My experience the other way 'round, going from Australian English to German, was dreadful. The written test I would breeze through, getting a 1.1~1.3 (top marks basically) in every section but spoken. Because Australian English is non-rhotic (in opposition to rhotic), and German grammar depends on sounds like -er, I'd get crucified in the spoken section. Also we have the tendency to drop vowel sounds, which you need to be conscious of.
After a while you stop forcing yourself and it becomes second nature, but people notice that you don't sound exactly right.
Well done and you deserve to be congratulated as let’s be honest Australian English is bloody confusing 😅🇦🇺
Nah yeah!
All the Asians and Indians and liberals she was hanging around in the city I don't think she heard too much real Aussie slang.
Thank you, Martina.
Happy Lunar New Year 2024.
I wish you and yours a wonderful year in 2024.
Cheers,
Thang
I love your TH-cam Channel, i always rewatch all i need to know about Melbourne and how to move to Australia..... i really hope all my job applications that I'm sending yield me good results
Esto empezando ahora a estudiar mi IELTS exam pera mudarme alli con mi familia y este consejo es genial :) Gracias
Very useful video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. It helped me a lot
Super useful tips!!! Thank you. I am so happy that I have found you. Definitely, I subscribe to your channel !!!
Great Tips ma'am ,Thanks 🙏❤
Loved it! Great video 😊
To be honest I have watched a number of your videos and your English is amazing, no, it's more than amazing , it's superb.
I would go as far as to say you speak better than 80% of the population, something you should be aware of .
After watching some of your earleir videos I was getting confused trying to work out what you did and who you were with.
I figured you had something to do with pyschology or psychiatry .I was close in my guess.
But, I have to say it astounds me how someone can grasp English, and switch back and forth between that and their native language.
I took German at school but I was useless , taught myself a few phrases in French, enough to get me by so I would not starve in Paris.( what a weird lot they are, they wont speak to you in English till you address them in French )
My wife is Cantonese,and has been here for 10 years, her English has not really improved in all the time she has been here ,even though, I see lists of words that she continually studies ,so it is still a guessing game for me to understand what she means because she misuses words and she and he is always confused so, I have to decipher her words to follow the conversation .When I speak, she just ignores me or pretends she didn't hear and I guess that works for her so, I have to just brush it off and realise it's not going to change as all her friends are either Chinese, , or Malaysian.
Oh , one thing I noticed with English speaking South Americans is the way they say Australia .It sounds like it has been learnt from a "bloke from the bush "it's devoid of any hint of an South American accent and is more Australian than Australian , just sounds unusual.😁
Love your video's. I am not trolling you here, but learning to pronounce "t" as in "important " NOT "impordant" is a key... Oh, and never loose your accent, it is so charming :)
I think it would be more correct to say that you needed to change your approach to preparing for the IELTS Test. It's such a particular thing and needs specific preparation. But as you acknowledged, a grounding in grammar is still helpful. I find that in general most of my Asian students are familiar with grammar but have rarely practiced conversation and social English. Most of my South American students are more confident with speaking but often have grammatical and pronunciation errors that they have been repeating for so long they're often frozen now in their approach to English.
Connecting to learning you're engaged in is a vital point though, I love that you watched Sabrina! I've had quite a few students who've risen through levels really quickly because they've been enjoying watching TV shows and movies so much and they pick up so much that way.
Also, just to defend language school a bit, in good language schools, we do all of this. Real receptive skills and real productive skills. My students listen to TED talks, we use it for vocabulary, listening skills and then analysis to either write a summary or discuss the themes and implications of what they've heard. A language school that focusses only on grammar will never help their students succeed.
I like your video's thank you
Fantastic video and a great insight into the challenges faced by non-english speakers. I am 60yo Australian and don't understand the 18 year olds. Maybe I need to follow your tips?
Strong intent and strong work ethic. You put in a major amount of work! My parents paid a fortune for me to go to Ipswich Girls Grammar for three years (years 8-10) and that involved 3 years of French … omg! … After attending French classes for those 3 years I can say without a shadow of a doubt that my French accent was the best in class (dear god they were terrible) - brilliant minds who became scientists, pharmacists & doctors but they couldn’t do a french accent.
And my understanding of the Language remained a resounding Zero.
Lessons Learned that remain with me from French Classes - well I don’t butcher the word au revoir when spoken.
I know le and la precede many French words and
FIN means end of the movie.
The Story of The Ramble from a parent’s perspective is Good Money doesn’t guarantee a great education.
And School isn’t just for Academia - I loved my school - best time @ school ever.
Ciao!
9 years in ausis...wow... U are very intelligent mam
Se imaginan que todo mundo hablara ingles tan perfecto como ella?
awesome english you have, I have been in a kind of a same process as well as you , by taking english lessons , I've started from A2 now I am doing the C2 level, it wasn't easy peasy, requires a lot of effort on this and consistency, it takes me 2,5 years to get at this point, nonetheless still being challenging understanding some accents specially the australian which is the country that caught my attention because of their culture and tranquility as a nation.
Comprehensible input is a great tool to learn also you can combine that by using language reactor desktop app and Anki app both of them great tools to learn new vocabulary.
Do you have any recommendations to listen the australian accent on YT?
awesome explanation, bye bye.
There's this Australian English teacher with a YT channel called mmmEnglish (something like that), I think she's pretty good. Otherwise, I'd recommend to watch Aussie tv Shows and Movies (you can find many on Netflix or the ABC iview app). Here's a list of my favourite ones th-cam.com/video/uB-3jFXbCYU/w-d-xo.html Hope this is of some help
I don't mean to be that trivial dude just saying "your beautiful" but to overcome everything that you've been through and providing this pedagogy makes you really good looking today

Hola, Martina! Muchas gracias por el contenido.
I think it is not the proper video to ask it, but, how hard would it be for a Portuguese PR and Communications graduate (with low professional experience) who have never studied abroad to find a job as a translator (is it a viable income source, by the way) or as a receptionist (is it a common job among graduates) in Australia? I am pondering moving abroad within the next 2 years, and from what I've found out Australia seems to be a good option.
Saludos desde los Açores
Hey! Thanks for the comment :) It all depends on your CV, your skills, your English level and the industry you are looking at. For translator jobs, you'll likely need specific qualifications and FYI it is a competitive field (have a look at job ads). For admin/receptionist jobs, there's high demand in general, but again it all comes down to how you present your job application and how you position yourself in the job market. For more information, I have a dedicated video about getting a job in Australia with little to no experience here th-cam.com/video/1TB9xtk-D1c/w-d-xo.html I also have a few others about finding a job & working in Australia (key things to know) th-cam.com/video/z7uh3dpatRk/w-d-xo.html and Job ideas for international students & backpackers th-cam.com/video/cA6D6VV0TGE/w-d-xo.html Hope this helps :)
Give thumbs up emoji if your from Australia🇦🇺 👍
I'm using vpn proxy, does it count? 😂
Idk maybe
I guess I'm screwed I already know English and am retired on fixed income and can't even get a call back no matter how late I stay up here in the US. Do you have any suggestions for migration services or don't they have a visa program for a single retired person on a fixed income ?
greetings, I have a few questions about Australia and residence, I don't have high school and I don't know the language very well, could I somehow go to Australia to live and work, another question is that I have an uncle in Australia who has a company, can he be my sponsor even though I don't have high school and I don't know English, I really want to go and live there
Respected sis,Am from India.My 100 subclass permeant partner visa was granted on 8 October 2021. The date of first entry in visa grant letter was till 8 October 2022. At that time I could not reach Australia due to a little illness. My visa is valid till 8 October 2026 multiple entries,in effect. Now I want to enter Australia. Will I face any problem while traveling?
Hey, I'd highly recommend getting in touch with the Department of Home Affairs (or checking their website) or a MARA registered migration agent for any visa enquiries
You are so beautiful, I like your voice and you. 👋
I'm from Uganda 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬 hw can I apply as an au pair please help me coz Australia is my favorite country 🙏🙏🙏🤐
Madam Can you help me for a Job in Australia? Please
Nice content. I wanna make videos and I have some ideas, I am in Keysborough Melbourne now. I would like to meet and discuss. waiting for your response.
Crikey. Grats. English would have to be one of the worst languages to learn as a second language (it is so inconsistent), let alone the Australian version of it. If you want a real challenge, go along to a cricket or footy match and see if you can make out what the crowd is saying. For example, when troublemakers are removed by the police, you'll hear the crowd chant, "You're goin' home in the back of a divvy van."
That was me in bay 13 mcg. Memorable days 🍻
I can not agree more. Text contents are always twisted and boring, which is never suitable for English learning. I prefer just watching BBC, Ted, and other interesting TV series( without any subtitles）, even your videos. Thousands of pure practices of the IELTS Test can almost kill everyone
I wasted my time
Yeah, sadly now you don't speak English, you speak American. You say the word "super" soooooo many times. Try substituting super with the word "Very". If you want to speak Correct English, you should have been taught by a New Zealander or English person.
