Learn Spanish: CREO (I think) & PIENSO (I believe) - uses and differences

Learn to use creo (I think) and pienso (I believe) like a Spanish native speaker. In Spanish, there are two verbs to help you express what you think: "pensar" (to think) & "creer" (to believe). Contrary to English, in Spanish the most common verb to express what you think, to express your gut feeling is "creer" (to believe). To believe, creer in Spanish, is actually casual, less serious, more easygoing. While to think, "pensar", is used for more, let's say, deep thoughts. Think of using "pienso" when you are becoming more philosophical. In this Spanish class, I will guide you through all the differences between the rivalry between these cousins. While they share some of the same blood, and they use similar means to justify their end, they go through different paths. Watch this lesson and learn when to use "creer" and when to use "pensar" so you don't mix them up.
In this lesson:
00:00 Introduction to "pensar" (to think) and "creer" (to believe)
02:35 The Spanish verb "pensar" (to think)
10:48 The Spanish verb "creer" (to believe)
21:38 Conjugation of Spanish verb "pensar" (to think) and "creer" (to believe)

Pensar makes me think of the English word Pensive meaning - engaged in, involving, or reflecting deep or serious thought. I just found your channel yesterday and I am very grateful. Thank you.

Yo creo que eres una profesora genial. Yo pienso que hoy he aprendido mucho en los palabras creer y pensar. Gracis Ana

[@sofiadalesio816]

When you use the verb "ser" (be) in Spanish (present time), it can be replaced for O in the last letter of the action.
For example: (yo) uso el teléfono (I use the phone)
Or
(Yo) abro la puerta (I open the door)
The vowel "O" can represent oneself in the present time.
No need to use "yo".
I hope this can help you, is just an advice :) (I'm sorry if there's a mistake or more).

Dear Anna. Can you tell something about yourself . Your family, your friends, your aspirations, your life in Mexico. Nothing personal but the life of a Spanish teacher in Mexico which is a very strange country for me. How someone got the idea and desire to become a teacher?. And how you realised you had a natural talent for it ? I am not currious but I can not help asking myself Who is that woman who really manage to teach me a foreign language and make me smile at the same time ? I really wish her to be successful and happy
