It's amazing.

Well done.

Had been is similar to have been and has been, except that it identifies actions that both began and ended in the past. It is used in the past perfect and past perfect progressive tenses. Where have been and has been suggest a past point in time that remains open and unfinished, had been indicates something that is closed and completed.
Examples
Until Roger became manager, the repair records had been vague at best. (past perfect)
I had been feeling sad before my parents gave me a puppy. (past perfect progressive)
In these examples, the verb refers to something that both started and ended in the past.

Native speaker's talk is usually difficult for me to listen to.
But it is relatively easy for me to listen to what Alisha san speaks.
Your videos become good listening trainings for me.
Thank you, Alisha san!😊
I made a member registration just now.
