    I'm just 14 years old.But I've been learning english about 3 years.The way you explain not to compare other is really unique.I noticed that I also compare myself to other back in the day.But right now I gonna compare present me to past me.

    Hey, your content is so awesome! You're definitely setting a great example for other English learners! Keep it up! It is so amazing to see how much progress you have made with the language as non-native speaker of English, you're such an inspiration! congratulations on that! I completely agree with everything you said, never compare yourself to others this not only applies to English learning but also in life in general!

    I completely agree with everything you said, never compare yourself to others and it applies not only to English, but to everything in this life in general. I personally don’t compare someone’s English with my English because I am bilingual and I can speak two languages fluently. I know that some people were also jealous when they heard how I spoke English, but I would’ve said to them that there is nothing to be jealous about. If you want to become fluent in another language then you have to learn it and unless someone has motivation, they can’t achieve anything in this life.
    At some point I asked myself a question: how am I supposed to achieve something in my life if I don’t have motivation? And that’s true if that’s doesn’t motivate you, nothing will. Quote from famous apple founder Steve Jobs. If you want something you’ve never had, you have to do something you’ve never done before. I always keep telling myself, I have to change my life and I can’t just live hoping for some miracles because nothing will happen if you won’t make all efforts.
    I’ve been thinking lately if I want my future to be bright than I have to work on that. I realized that all these mistakes that I made in past, I can’t fix them and complaining about this, hating myself will change nothing. Unfortunately you can’t protect yourself from bad luck and you certainly can’t change something that happen a few years ago. Eventually, you have to embrace it and live.
    Life goes on every day and there are so many things you can do when you have time and in my case, I am still young and I have my whole life ahead of me, so if I make conclusions, I just have to move forward and not look back. I remember when said: life is short dude because you are not safe from anything that can happen.
    This world is dangerous and you have to watch your back, but at the same time don’t be afraid of anything...

    I am not the person that commonly leave a comment in UA-cam videos, but this one totally worth it. Great advices, sincerely you touched my heart with your words and thoughts regarding your journey, really appreciate it. By the way , instead of using notion, I use obsidian app that also is helping me a lot to organize my ideas and valuable notes. Both are great tools. Thanks so much Veronica. I just already subscribed to your channel. Probably I will register to your speaking club, I am interested. Greetings from Mexico.

    Hi Veronika!
    Which of these two book series is best to learn english grammar through self-study?
    Not to get through any examination but to write and speak well in english.
    1. Cambridge series of Raymond Murphy
    2. Destination B1, B2, and C1&C2 by Malcolm Mann and Steve Taylore-Knowles
    Is there any other book that you think is good?
    Would be much obliged if you could help me with this.
