I really love Spanish it sounds like a song when they speak and i decided to learn Spanish with Spanish accent. I love how theh pronounce c like th its amazing. Greetings from Turkey
it's a beautiful language! Thank you for your comment
This is great. I understand you much better than your teacher :) Thank you for sharing this. I am still new to your channel but you have had an incredible result from whatever you're doing. I look forward to learning more about your methods and copy it.
Thank you 🙏🏽
I'm having lessons on italki as well!!!
Awesome! Are you enjoying them?
Can you pls tell me the teacher's name on italkie as l want to take it for my son.
This is exactly what i needed. I understood alot of what you were talking about. I still need more practice to understand your teacher. Keep it up man!
You're doing very well Shane. If I could make one suggestion, becoming super proficient in the subjunctive mood will take your Spanish to the next level. For example, at around 4:58 you said ”no creo que había pensado en...". I believe the correct construction would be "no creo que hubiera (or hubiese) pensado en...". Once you get the hang of it, the subjunctive really is not that hard and trust me, it'll really make a difference as to how native Spanish speakers will perceive your level. ¡A por ello!
Thanks Steve! You're absolutely right, it's something that I'm a little better with now and it makes a huge difference!
Talking about language learning in your target language is actually pretty fun surprisingly. Me encanta hablar sobre pelis y series también. Suerte Hermano!
I know right! It’s really rewarding! Gracias por tu comentario 😊🙏🏽
Dude speaks very well.
Amaia is an awesome teacher! Love my classes with her
Sí, es muy maja!
Hola. Enhorabuena,hablas muy bien español.soy italiano y te escucho casi siempre,tienes un nivel de idioma muy alto. Yo también llevo casi un año que estudio espańol. empezé en septiembre de 2023 escuchando todo cómo las peliculas,los documentales y haciendo ejercicios de gramática. Un saluto dall' Italia.
Speaking with an Spanish accent with a Spanish tutor aight I see you brother!
Very impressive bro. I wish my speaking was as fluent . My problem is that I understand every word you both said but my mind goes blank when I try to get into conversation and I simply forget all my español . 😩
I know the feeling! It’s takes time and practice but you’ll get there! At this point I’ve had a lot of practice speaking with italki classes and language exchanges and things, so it feels a lot more natural for me now
@@ShaneGodliman I have subscribed Shane so look forward to seeing more. Cheers pal. Maybe we can chat sometime 👍
Whenever you like mate! I’m on Instagram if you want to contact me there @shanegodliman
@@ShaneGodliman will do Shane
Alucino con tus reflexiones! increíble el progreso que tienes, me inspira un montón para mi inglés y mi alemán jajaja Saludos de Madrid

Good video! First of all, I want to thank the author of the channel for making this beautiful and useful video for us! Many people are embarrassed to speak a foreign language if they have no speaking skills. People are afraid to hear criticism from others in their address. It all comes from having a psychological complex - to make a mistake. But, after all, he who does nothing is not wrong! In Yuriy Ivantsiv's workshop "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign language" states that we need to talk as much as possible: with yourself, with the mirror, with inanimate objects, with children and with pets. Find an interlocutor in real life or online. Talk without shyness. People won't care how you speak. They understand that you are a foreigner, as long as they understand you. They may even acknowledge your progress in their language and compliment you. However, always be prepared for criticism of your speaking skills. If you have the will to speak, you will gain an interesting interlocutor to consolidate your knowledge. Everyone is strewn with mistakes - don't be afraid to learn from them. As the Latin wisdom says, "walk and thou shalt not go astray". In the book "Polyglot Notes" by Yuriy Ivantsiv an entire chapter is devoted to the development of spoken language. Here you will find many useful tips and each student can choose a technique that suits him or her best! I wish you all the best of luck in your language learning!
No sé. Shane please try to find another phrase!!!!
Watched this in 3 parts as 42 minutes is too much for me to keep focus but this video was great, definitely understood you more than I did her, but feel like I learnt a lot considering I was just listening to a conversation. Thanks!
Thanks for checking out the whole video! You’re right though it is a pretty long video, I think I’ll upload smaller clips in the future but I’m glad you got something out of it!
Es realmente impresionante lo que has conseguido en tan poco tiempo. Me quito el sombrero, de verdad sigue así :)
Muchas gracias!
You only need to improve the r and after that you will be amazing the best
Yeah the rolled R’s really kill me, as you can tell 😂 thank you though!
@@ShaneGodliman Oye quiero decirte algo puedes hacer clases de pronunciación en Italki y dile al profe que necesitas pronociar mejor los r's
And make a video and see how you improved if you want
Sí pero me ha costado hasta ahora encontrar alguien que pueda ayudarme de verdad, la mayoría solo comparten ideas communes or ejercicios de UA-cam o algo que yo puedo encontrar por mi mismo, estoy buscando alguien más profesional con experiencia en pronunciación específicamente
@@ShaneGodliman Eso es bueno te deseo suerte
Entonces si un día llegas a conocer al rey y la reina de España, les vas a hablar de "vosotros". xD :D Por no haber querido aprender el "ustedes" que es usado en América Latina y formal en España. :D
Pues no, aprender el español de España no significa que no aprendes cómo usar “usted” 😂🧐
El verte hablar en un Español muy bueno me motiva pero para el aprendizaje del ingles.
Eso es genial! Gracias por tu comentario
he disfrutado este video me encanta escuchar tus videos , pero podia decir que llevas estudiando el español mas que un año,
Gracias! Este vídeo fue justo antes de un año
Very true, same with me.
LOL. She looks like Kim Richards from the original "Escape to Witch Mountain".
I’ve never seen it haha
She's a cutie
Do you like taking conversation classes? What is your favourite subject to talk about in your target language?
I wanted to know how do you comprehend Spanish so well do you have any tips?
@@joshuachisem1576 so in short it’s mostly lots of practice/exposure. But I have definitely found for me what has helped me the most has been to be able to read and listen at the same time. For example at first I watched a lot of Netflix with the subtitles in Spanish, later I started reading a lot of books with the audiobook to accompany it. Having the audio and the written text together I feel like has really helped my brain to be able to differentiate the different sounds and really tune in to what’s being said. Final thing is that a lot of understanding is about understanding the context, it’s not always necessary to hear and understand or translate every word, especially at first, the goal is to focus on the main point and then with time you start to be able to pick up more and more of the details and nuances . Hopefully that makes a little sense!
That’s awesome Lola 😊
Que bueno que no te dejaste llevar por tus amigos de no aprender español, sabes mucho. Yo estoy aprendiendo inglés llevo casi 6 años y todavía no lo hablo, es muy difícil 😭
Gracias! Y sigue trabajando el inglés, seguro que vas mejorando poco a poco 💪🏽
@@ShaneGodliman gracias!
How did attain so much comprehension and vocab in a year? Well done!
Thank you! Honestly just a lot of input! Lots of listening and reading
Gracias por este video
You speak very good Spanish Shane. I learned 30 years how to speak Spanish so I know how it is to learn another language. I now wanna learn salsa lol
You should do it! It’s great fun 😊
I love her accent
Haha me too! País Vasco 🙌🏽
I understood when you said 'tambien bailo Salsa.' That's awesome, we like Salsa dancing, too. You are a guy of many talents!! Thanks so much for the video!!
te felicitooo es muy lindo tu español.. saludos desde Argentina
Muchísimas gracias!
im going through all your speaking vids stealing your vocab for my anki lol cheers
Beautiful Spanish even at 1 year! How do you recall the low frequency words so well? Bc when I’m in a conversation I go for the easy high frequency bc I can’t remember o the spot yet!
Cada clase con uno de mis nuevos tutores es exactamente como esta jajaja
Gracias para conversación excelente....Estoy aprendiendo español con UA-cam. Aprendiendo mucho. Pregunta????Donde es Amaia UA-cam? Necesito más practica para mi español y ellas es excelente....
Gracias por verlo! Me alegro que hayas disfrutado 😊 no creo que ella tenga un canal de UA-cam pero la puedes encontrar en italki si quieres practicar con ella
@@ShaneGodliman gracias
I notice your teacher has Brian Kinney bracelet :)
❤❤❤🤗❤❤
excellent progress Shane! May I know how many hours of (conversation practice, not passive classes) have you had up to your current level?
Thank you! I don’t know exactly but I would say around 150 at that point if I had to guess
@@ShaneGodliman can you go to Spain or Mexico and live a smootg daily life?
Haven’t had the chance yet unfortunately
Buenas Shane, creo que se te da genial los idiomas. El pensamiento de salir de tu "Zona de Confort" afrontar los miedos y salir de esa zona que nos tiene a muchos atrapados, el aprender un idioma te obliga a salir de esa zona. Tanto si uno viaja solo a un país como si decide a probar cosas nuevas, eso es lo bonito de la vida aprender y mejorar nos ayuda a alcanzar la madurez. Te dejo un link de youtube que expresa lo que entendía en el minuto 27. ua-cam.com/video/RSUykLfEmVE/v-deo.html
How long have you been learning Spanish for?
I’ve been learning for 11 months 😊🙌🏽
@@ShaneGodliman your much better than me as I've been learning for about 9-10 months (6months properly). The biggest problem for me is listening as I absolutely suck when the teacher goes native, though I'm learning Latin American spanish so that might be why.
Yeah at first I think it’s definitely easier to focus on one accent, I’m sure I’d struggle a bit with natives from Latin America speaking fast and casually, but everyone’s journey is different! I found that for improving my listening skills, reading along with the audio really helped me to differentiate the sounds and get comfortable with native speed
@@ShaneGodliman yeah 100% as it definitely helps to focus on one accent, I'm mainly focusing on the Peruvian accent though obviously it's harder to find content. Your also right about the reading and listening but the only problem is that I sometimes use it as a crutch 😅.
Haha yeah I feel you! Have to find a balance I suppose, but as you said before, little by little in time you’ll keep getting more used to the language and the sounds
This my first time coming across you vids, Shane. Keep it up!☺
Thanks!
1 year?! 😱 dang.
Do you have a video on how you are learning Spanish perhaps
I have already made one ( it was the second video on the channel I think) but I am planning on doing another one very soon 😊
It would have helped more if you could have added subtitles. But nevertheless great work bud 👍🏼
I feel you, the problem is that subtitling long videos takes forever 😂
@@ShaneGodliman Wow... Can't believe you replied 😍 but i understand that it takes too much time 👍🏼
@@shridhar3567 You tube does it automatically - click on the captions/subtitles option at the bottom of the screen (to the left of the settings cog) and you'll see Spanish subtitles - not 100% perfect, but good enough for listening and reading at the same time :)
Quiero probar ella como una maestra.
La puede buscar en italki 😊 creo que sigue dando clases
