      @@DustinSchermaul I don't believe you have done this yet, but how do you approach and prepare for lessons with a language tutor? How many do you take per week? do you record the lessons? Do you focus on conversation or grammar, etc? I think it would be cool to see a video about this, and maybe even just a raw recording of a good language learning session. Thanks!

      @@ryancadima Hm good idea! I have only created one video so far about how to start speaking in general. I will put that on the list! Will soon also record how I practice speaking alone in Dutch and then at some point I will also speak with a tutor.

    Cool videos man! As a native spanish speaker, french has come very natural to me in just few months. But I'm arriving to the intermediate plateu when it's becoming more tricky (at least for me) to incorporate french commnication devices like the pronouns "y", "en" or using sentence inversions instead of formulating things with the classic "Est-ce que....?", in order to sound more fluent and natural. But I think is just a matter of keep practicing. On the other hand, after 3 months of learning german I still speak it in a very clumsy way like a caveman :(.

      Thank you very much for your feedback, Fernando :). Yes, I know that plateau and that feeling, but I always tell myself that those grammatical structures etc. will just come in the natural order to me. The more I speak, read and listen, the better it will get. Nevertheless, it can really make sense to work on specific grammar pattern once you have become aware of them and to try to use them in conversations, as long as they don't break your flow.
      Don't worry about German. In the end, it's about communication. First it's just about bringing the message across and then slowly it will get better… It really takes time, and German has some very mean grammar rules and characteristics. I'm sure you will get there if you just keep going :).
