You are great, Christian, your videos are always good but in this one you exposed bad practices among teachers; a teacher has the power to help you to build up your confidence but also they could make you feel ashamed of your performance. Thanks for all your work!!!
Hi Christian, I am highly overwhelmed by your commitment and passion for teaching student the right way. Putting so much of efforts aren’t easy. I salute your dedication and never giving up spirit. I am also one of those students who really don’t want to cram things up rather want to enjoy language learning. This has to be a fun way of learning not the other way round. I always keep a watch over your videos post and learn lot from them. I am very excited and eager to see your hard work in January time; when you would take us thru the journey of language learning in the most appropriate and fun loving way.
Just thanks - thank you very much, Christian.
Canguro English do you speak at a normal speed or speak slowly to ease the listening? Thanks for the videos!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Ole'! I Agree with you. What a shame that there aren't more people who think on similar lines.
Language is a tool for communication!
People like you makes the difference in the world. At least in mine. ☺️
Thanks ever so much.
You’ve got the power of motivating us to move forward to improve our English.
Gratitude from Brazil 🇧🇷
Jessé Alves da Silva exactly!
If you want to read well, you should read a lot. If you want to write without mistakes, you should write every day. If you want to "know" language, you should communicate. The Idea is very simple, isn't it? Simplest is the best.
Genius ideas always easy

Но так не хочется самому все это делать, что многие думают, походив на занятия, изучат язык. =)
@@MisterKoK22 действительно, заплатив за уроки и походив на них, многие думают, что их научат :) это ложь и только отъем денег за твои мечты. Только самому можно всё выучить нормально
@@radiotory на начальном этапе, если преподаватель нормальный, то может помочь. Далее можно самому.
But where can I get speaker for conversations?
I had given up learning English because I was only in the intermediate level, although I studied hard. When I first hooked up your channel last year, I changed my mind! Since then, my motivation and language learning have improved every day! I was afraid to speak ... But I do not have any more! Thank you, Christian!
Hi Christian, I can tell the difference when I look at your lessons, that are not common lessons! You always try to encourage us and this is what makes me feel your student! There are so many things I would like to learn about language, but sometimes I feel downhearted, watching your videos makes me think I can make it!
Hi! I’m from Brazil and I’m a math and physics teacher. I’ve been working as a teacher since 2005 and I really love my job, which is not giving my students all done, instead, I help them through the learning process. Most of the time I ask them not to open their books, but close them! Books sometimes are jails, so we don’t think, we just repeat what someone has already thought. (Sorry, my English is just a work in progress!)
Falou bem !
We never have to give up, I´m Costarrican I have no experience. Me dream is to speak like him, and how hi said there are a lot of methods and information but all that different and confused. I mean the key is to kepping going, and of course hear Canguro English.
I am a student. and I have been learning English for three years just with the destination to pass the exam and get high scores. actually I hate English with learning the extremely boring grammar stuff. however, after I finished my high school, when I transformed my opinion to paly with this language I found that I am really grateful for the period I was getting this boring fundamentals. because it gave me the basic to go around with English. so, you should realize that it's just a beginning for a language after you finished your grammar. and just play with, establish the connect of your life to this language you like.
It’s Friday, the best day of the week 22.09.2024 (today‘ s Sunday 😊)
I have just watched your film and I think that I will stay there for a long. Your language and speech are clearly for me. Thanks.
Christian, You are one of the best teachers I have ever seen!!!)))
you are really A teacher. May the force be with you.
Wow! I really enjoyed this video. And you made a completely amazing point "Language is not an academic subject, it's a tool of communication".
I sometimes feel what those guys on the Redit had experienced. I've felt discouraged to learning language and at that time i was thinking that i couldn't make it. But, then I watched a Ted Talk speech about language, and the lessons in the speech were really different compared to what i learn at school. I got my motivation back. Plus, your videos open new doors in my mind about what actually language is. Thank you so so much Christian. Jesus Bless You.
It was fun! You made that Friday worth the effort. Man, that was inspiring.
You are the gift from the God for us . I want to appreciate to you for your efforts to change the world , the humanity , the society . You are my hero )))
Thanks so much for your efforts to help us learn English with fun .
Congralutions !! You are extremely good in your teaching!!
Right! If a teacher loses the trust of the student it's game over. Language is an art and so many teachers want to approach it as a science! It's a shame.
Sir you are doing a noble work. Love from India♥️😊
Hello Cristoph. The next fantastic lesson in the morning.
that's me. I hate going to school when i was a student. Cuz they taught nothing but how to get scores from exams. I feel much better n confident by learning by myself and practices.
Keep shouting Christian. I have been an English teacher for 30 years or more and I am so with you. Really!! Keep shouting. I will help you spread the word. Thank you soooo much!!
The best motivation that I had all of my life! You're the best! Thank you so much!
Language is a tool of communication.... that´s it!
I've lost a lot of my time at school. In a classic school. That's why my 12 year old son does not go there. We learn at home. Yes, we learn together: me and he, everything, always and everywhere. We're experimenting. It seems to me that home education is slowly changing the classic school, for the better. At least in Poland.
Democratic or libertarian schools are also a good idea, they learn there!
A beautiful movie! Honest and true. Good luck Christian!
Thank you!
Excellent lesson 👍
Se puso heavy el profe😮 but i agree, the high school was a barrier and not a bridge
Thank you
Muito bom.
Muitíssimo Obrigado pela ajuda em nos ensinar.
Kkkkkkkkkk in English porra kkkk brincadeira
Спасибо!
Thank you. You are doing noble work.!
I'm afraid to go to an academy for that reason, I practice at least 2 days my conversation with native people, I practice my listening the app BBC player in my mobile, I watch videos in English and the TV in original version, also I try to read in English a lot. I turned the language to English in my mobile. In theory I have B2 level, but I'm sure that I would be also overwhelming with traditional teaching.
YOU ARE MY HERO!
Those guys don't know what internet really means, you don't have to go to a school or a french teacher to learn or practice.
A beautiful greeting to those who leave atouch of beauty on the endless, infinite life....
Great, Christian!Thank you!!
OMG!!! You are so great man! I love your class!!!
Again... new one great video
Thank you, you gave me some inspiration today. It’s really important.
Hello sir I really like your way of teaching I loved it . You are one of the great teacher of my life.
Thanx for teaching me.
You've just made my day with your amazing video! I totally agree with you, that's why I hate exams!!! Way to go Christian.
God bless you!! You are an amasing teacher. I would like to know why sometimes people make questions without the auxiliars, is it right? I see It happening in so many movies.
Sir you're incurable ☝let's to the top...
guauuu thanks cristian for that motivation messenger. i realy need listening that just now when i star agaen my english practic. You are grat motivationman
Diksiyonu çok düzgün. 👍
Thats Was ghreat!!
WoW
Don't be angry, I know what's your means, I'm the student only exercised one finger. I want to know more about the world with different language.
Hi,) I'm Nata. Study English on my own. Do you speak with the normal speed in your lessons?
It's really interesting to listen to your normal speed speaking)
Then I started saw your movies, I would understand match better! Sorry, I can’t to read правильно in English ;) Thank’ a lot!
I'm not failed, I'm on break and I'm not gonna sleep with Spanish!
... it's funny, awful and wonderful at the same time! I mean the beginning of your every single morning. :)
👍
My smartphone sounds the same,are the creditors!
Does someone know what means: "who is running a stand" ?
Hi Chistian. I'm a teacher too, and I do my best to help my students. I've learned a lot of things in books, internet etc... about education. I'm French, and you know that French education is not very good! Mostly in languages. So I try to be a good teacher😄
I do not have money , but i want very much learn france
La langue françaies est jolie aussi, pouretant j'ai mal a faire la déffirence entre " Le " et " " La "
French is so complicated 😢 I can't do writing by myself without needing to a translator! But even so I still like it 😁😍
@@tarekaidi981 BonjourTarek, en tant que Français natif ( né à Tours et y vivant encore ) passionné par ma langue maternelle, depuis l'adolescence, grâce à des génies comme Sacha Guitry, Pierre Dac ou Raymond Devos, je conçois la pédagogie et l'apprentissage de la même manière que notre excellent Christian- à savoir : penser "en dehors des cases"- aussi, répondrais-je ceci : c'est "complètement arbitraire".
Il a été décidé que tel ou tel objet devait être considéré comme féminin ou masculin sans réelle cohérence avec une réalité "tangible":
En allemand - j'ai appris aujourd'hui, sur le site formidable, Quora- qu'il faut dire" LA" soleil, alors qu'en français, c'est " LE" soleil.
Qui détient la vérité, l'Allemagne ou la France ? Le soleil est un homme ou une femme ? Évidemment personne n'a tort ou raison, c'est un choix "purement subjectif" parce qu'il faut bien se décider sur une règle à appliquer pour simplifier le langage "commun, et éviter que l'on sombre dans l'anarchie syntaxique comme sur la planète "texto" : SA/ CA, ça fait peut-être seulement deux lettres à taper, mais on n'y exprime plus la même notion de sens :) Bien entendu, nous sommes une langue dérivée du latin, principalement, ce qui explique également la racine féminine ou masculine de nos termes, mais ça ne justifie pas plus "une légitimité irréfutable et scientifique" que le soleil soit " sexué" : ça reste profondément une décision " subjective" inhérente au parcours culturel et à l'histoire d'une langue.
Oralement, la méthode la plus efficace est d'habituer ton sens de l'écoute, ça viendra avec l'usage, tout comme la pratique auditive régulière de l'anglais, me permet de retenir que study se prononce STEU DIII et non STEU D'AIL ( comme le Y invite pourtant à le penser pour un esprit français ^^) , ou que "received" se dit RE SIIIVE D et non RE SAILLE V D, ce qui ne manque jamais de me déconcerter ^^
C'est principalement l'accoutumance auditive qui permet "d'apprivoiser" naturellement et tranquillement notre cerveau à ces " étrangetés sonores venues d'ailleurs" ^^. Toutefois, lorsque les Français(e)s aiment leur langue, on peut facilement distinguer ce féminin selon la " bonne" tournure de leurs phrases : On dira: Je t'ai offert des fleurs, MAIS : Les fleurs que je t'ai offerTES ( féminin audible ! ) et non "offert", ou : J'ai appris cette poésie, MAIS la poésie QUE j'ai appriSE ( féminin audible, accord du COD, QUE, qui est "antéposé" au verbe : "antéposé" est un terme affreux, retiens que ça veut dire "placé avant" ).
En revanche, à l'écrit, c'est plus évident " visuellement": des indices te permettent de repérer le masculin et la français: les fameux accords du participe passé ainsi que l'accord en genre et en nombre. :) Si tu lis , "elle s'est couchée tôt / il s'est couché tôt", le gros indice du "E final de couché" dans l'exemple un, te permet facilement de savoir que l'on parle d'une femme, même si tu hésites encore à distinguer le "genre" entre il ou elle, il te suffit de retenir que le E de l'accord du participe passé signale le féminin.
Hélas, la langue française adorant compliquer la vie avec ses participes passés et la vie de ses concitoyens au niveau de sa grammaire pénible ( l'accord du participe passé avec les pronoms et verbes réfléchis est une "forme de perversion ultime" ^^, la chose n'est pas toujours aussi évidente :
Elle s'est lavé les mains : on n'accorde pas lavé, car : elle s'est lavé quoi ? les mains = COD, il est "postposé" ( nom barbare, retiens que ça veut dire "placé après" ^^) donc pas d'accord.
Mais : elle s'est lavée: elle a lavé qui ? "elle-même"représenté par " S' ".
À la longue on finit par s'habituer à ces " perversions" ;)
Good .sl kubura srilanka
I've been using this lovely channel to learn English as my second language. I know that I won't be totally perfect when I'll try to express myself in a foreign language. That's normal. Everyday I'll learn something different and the most important thing is, don't give up of learning other language.
You are right, but I have one small notice. I mean, you shouldn't give up at all, not only with languages. Be strong, attentive and confident. Wish you and Cristian good luck!
The world needs so many people like you! Congratulations for your ideas! You are fantastic!
i am native turkish speaker. I almost gave up to learning english until I saw your videos. Thanks very very very much that you motiveded me. Regards from turkey..
Hi teacher! I agree 100% with you. Most of the English language I learnt was by my own and when I housed a girl from Sweden in my home (Uruguay), who was fluent in English because she was studying in the USA before she arrived here and as a result I improved my English skills. When she left I started to learn English in an Institute (B2 level) in which I was doing it great at first, but gradually I started to decline my ability not only to speak but also with other stuff related to the learning process. I wish she had stayed a bit longer…
I feel exactly the same!!! I’ve been studying English for 3 years, I know a lot of vocabulary, expressions, phrasal verbs, but I simply can’t speak..... it’s absolutely frustrating....
Line me.

Hi.. I'm from Kazakhstan and I learning English...so.. I'm seeking friends for communication...
Hi Teacher! In my opinion in this cases, it happens because the people simply don’t care about your story to be there trying to speak another language. I arrived at Sydney almost 3 months ago and last week I had my worst experience until now. I was transferred from Brazil to Sydney by my company and since I received a notice I started working harder in my English skills and I was already studying before it. But last week one colleague laughed at my face when I was trying to explain one thing about the job. He’s a native speaker and in his country. I’m from another country trying to communicate. Obviously I need to improve and fast and probably I need to be more prepared, but sometimes people simply will put you down but we need to overcome this situation!
I'm Brazilian too. Your English is very good for me. A lot of people would like to have your level English skills. Good lucky for you. Don't give up just remember what did you start.
Your colleague is stupid guy
I agree with you. Absolutely. What you are saying is about practical common sense and meaningful experience when learning a foreign language.
The guy asking the first question was unnecessarily exposed to some metalanguage. Terms, definitions, concepts etc to talk about the language; not to talk or use the language itself. This is quite a common problem which you can observe in "advanced" level classes where some considerable number of teachers think that talking about language means using the language. Nope. As an experienced non-native teacher of English, I can confidently say that's not the case Knowing all the rules, explanations, grammar charts, even the long lists of vocabulary will not make your English much better. Unless you use the language by listening, speaking, reading and writing; it will soon fade away. Unless you interact with other (native/non-native) speakers/users of English, the rules you have learned, the exercises you have done will not make sense. And learning necessary grammar rules, and some basic vocabulary is only some small part of acquiring a language. The biggest part of language learning is to practice it in a meaningful context. This could be a work environment, or an educational environment where you actually need to use the language in any form, written or spoken in order to interact with others.
The question in the second post is also about learning independently and gaining confidence. The problem here is that becoming aware of the fact that native speakers sometimes, unfortunately, tend to intimidate the non-native speakers by just speaking fast and/or using unfamiliar idioms or phrases. I had this horrible experience quite a few times, but they didn't my destroy my confidence at all; on the contrary, I started to believe that I had to practice more and more to gain native-like proficiency. But at the same time, I sadly learned that there might be some native-speakers out there who are ready to intimidate you by their naturally acquired mother language. I know this is unfair, but it is a fact. Sad but true.
I learned English by myself. Well, almost myself. I went to a modest language school quite briefly but then I had to get a full time job for a living. Then, I started to study independently whenever I found time. I really believed that I could learn some English just enough to survive by studying on my own. And I still believe so. I read books, first simplified versions of English classics. Then I got less simplified ones. I listened to them as well. There were audio cassettes accompanying the books. (I am talking about the late 1980s) Whenever I saw one in a bookstore, I bought them. I had a collection of audio books with texts and I can't remember how many times I listened to them, and read them. I also did some grammar exercises. The only grammar book I had was "English Grammar in Use" by Raymond Murphy. I also had a dictionary, "Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary" which I am still using :) One day, while I was enjoying a new book that I'd bought from a second-hand book store, a friend of mine came to me and said, if I could read that book, I should go to college and study English literature. First I thought he was kidding. But he wasn't. He said the book I was reading wasn't simplified, it was just a collection of short stories of which language was relatively simpler compared to the other works in English literature. (The book was "Modern Short Stories", which I still recommend to my students) Then I realized that I was at a higher level of English proficiency than I thought. Later, I decided to go to college, passed all the exams, and studied English language and literature. Now I've been teaching English to students at a university in Istanbul for many years.
When I enter the classroom for the first time with a new group of learners, I always emphasize that learning is a personal experience and only thing they need is guidance on their way to proficiency. They need to have the necessary skills to gain their confidence and independency for learning and using English. It is also true that language learning is not like learning an academic subject like geography or history. It is a set of skills that can only be gained by practice. However, as with many things in todays marketing world, unfortunately, language learning has also been extremely commercialized as a business sector to make profit. That's why, learner autonomy is not promoted or supported so that the business can make money off of *dependent* learners. What a shame!
Hello. My name is uğur (which means luck). I want to say something about language learning. Actually my English is not good. Because of the education system of my country. After about nine years of education, my English is really bad. It was even worse. The school gave me almost nothing. With watching movies, chatting with people on the internet, playing games (especially role playing games), I improved my English. Still I can't speak. I can only understand if someone speaks slowly. So I realized that the only way to learn a language is speaking and listening, communicating. Not memorizing grammar rules. Because when we communicate, the brain does itself. It memorizes the all of we need. That's what it made for.
Wow, Christian, you are charming and it's not easy to refute your arguments two things I picked up from your talk, The first is there are few teachers that motivate students to learn "to learn", the second is and I agree that the important thing is to communicate no to learn grammar rules. if is thought how to appear a language from the start and then the grammarians write rules for their use seems something orthopedic, my doubt is, do you recommend learning a language without study rules? I think that basic rules and a good teacher are important to accelerate the learning of a language. Oh, How I would like to hear from you!!!! Anyway, millions of thanks for your teachings.
I left my english school when I realized of what are you talking about
Christian, You're a living ispiration for us... I... I just wish every teacher would have this fire in their eyes... I've got no words... Thank you for everything you've done, you do, and what you will do. I'm trying to change this world too in my own way, and to see someone else with this spark inside is so amazing.
You're a great person! Thank you so much for all the work you do!
My pleasure!
In my opinion, we have similar problems with another school subjects, not only with English. The most of teachers doesn't encourage children to learn, they only follow a subject program and don't explain what a pupil can achieve with subject knowledge. These teachers should be kept away from children, but where to get so many good teachers? Especially on the usual low salary.
In regular schools students are not motivated enough, it is the truth!
Sad but truth,,
I can count with my fingers all the good teachers (with passion) that i had in my college days,
I agree I studied fifty years ago and it was the same@@bryan-carrera3115
One of the thoughts I have about teachers is that "it doesn't matter what salary teachers have". I think teaching is about having a passion and love to teach people. It's like a gift you've given, you have it or you don't. I think the same as you, that kind of teachers must not be in front of a classroom.
I totally agree. It's all about rules and theory. How is it possible to learn the language well, when at school the lesson is mainly about just listening, not speaking. And homework is about writing. You have to practice to get better. A teacher should love his students and the subject he's teaching.
Christian! You and I have one spirit! I'm glad to meet you!
I'm preparing myself to enter university (in a translation course) and I reached the level I got by myself. This last year I've been attending a course which tipically follows the structure of a teaching book and workbook. I always hated to follow that structure because sometimes it seems useless and a waste of time. Fortunately my teacher (sometimes) breaks that structure and when he does I end up having the most interesting class. So I fully aggree with what you've said. I'm angry too. I hope I make a difference someday. Keep shouting!
Motivation is the best thing a student can bring to class, motivation is the key to move forward, doesn't matter how hard the work is when motivation is on, so, when you hear that someone can destroy your motivation in just a few seconds, well, you cannot say that that person is a teacher, teachers create great things, teachers encourage students to keep pushing, teachers help students move forward, teachers care about his/hers students, someone who understands what students need to move from something to something else, is a great teacher, but someone who, apart from that, knows how to do it, well, I call them excellent teachers.
To sum up, stop studying. Start communicating))
You are the man!! It's a relief to hear your videos. Imagine that there are always people, especially teachers, who instead of stimulating, motivating, cultivating enthusiasm are always focused on mistakes, limitations, destroy the student's confidence. I am a philosophy teacher in a public high school here in Brazil and I studied English for 3 or more years. I realize how harmful and even dangerous to students' self-esteem are certain types of teacher's behaviors. Thanks a lot for your words.
Hi Christian, I have a question. Why do I perfectly understand you?)))
Ok, I see, that you slowing down the speed of your speech. I see, that you over-pronounce words in order to sound clearer. But what about vocabulary? Why do I know every single word that you use? And I don't have, like C1 or B2 level, I assume, I have more like an intermediate level. But, nevertheless, I understand your lexicon completely. Do you simplify your speech deliberately? If so - you do it amazingly naturally. I can't notice the moment when you are struggling to pick up the "simple" the "most frequent" word. Obviously, you have a great skill in communicating with people who just started to get use the language. Thank you very much for your strong ideas, and for plain and clear expressing them.
Thank you for your videos, i love your way of teaching English ... Muslim Abbas from Karbala, Iraq 🇮🇶🇮🇶
"Language is not an academic subject, language is a tool for communication" That quote inspires me to continue when I feel like giving up on learning English. Thanks a lot, Christian.
After all said and done the reason that people fail THEMSELVES is simply because they're not fully committed, period !!!!!!!
I think peоplе who spent four years for this learning did not waist their time... They got a basic. And with your help they'll change their mood and will be successful
I'll give ONE REASON NOT TO LEARN ENGLISH
More languages are disappearing and with this ''GLOBALIZATION'' thing it'll just increase the chances of more languages dying. On top of that you make Americans feel more ego, Cuz they're gonna be like well If everyone speaks English why should I bother so
One more reason:
American culture lowkey sucks, It's all about materialism and consumism dude life is not all about that
I have more reasons but It's gonna takeme days to write all here
Hi teacher. I feel very encouraged by your attitude.
Especially when you talked about learning English to communicate.
And you're absolutely right. It's about the learner's self esteem. I don't feel comfortable speaking with my native accent. But being a non speaker, a gap of decades without the opportunity to speak English, having reached a certain age etc. it won't disappear. Probably I'd feel better by just being fluent. My reading is much better than my speaking, for I can't practice. Fluency is one thing, pronunciation another. When I'm hearing foreigners speaking m y native language, it isn't all about fluency, that doesn't feel right, but the wrong pronunciation, that irritates me and distracts me. I' m grateful for subtitles on UA-cam, but they sometimes they're gibberish. Of course understanding depends on the accents being used. American accents are probably easier than British ones. So my goal isn't sounding like a native speaker anymore, but neutral speaking. Is it possible to reach that goal ?
Greetings from Germany 😅
Thanks for your words for give me courage to continue practice English ( too hard for me but without effort its impossible) ...Blessing Teacher.....(from Italy -Piacenza)
You said exactly how I feel about my English course. I recognize that the course took me out of ignorance, because I didn't know how to speak a sentence in English before two years ago. But I feel like I've been stationed at the intermediate level. I'm from Brazil.
I totally agree. The teacher should sympathize, but that rarely happens. Often they're non native speakers themselves and their only way of teaching is by textbook, grammar rules. They learned that way and can't teach in a different one. Including you only learn "proper" English or whatever language, not one single idiom fitting for every day' s use.😢
Me again. One problem with learning English at school is the short time. You can learn, theoretically, on paper , for years, but the average lesson at school is one hour. And for you as a pupil that hour consists in its majority in listening, not speaking. And the homework is about writing (it used to be like that in the 1980s, maybe it' s different nowadays).
You make a huge difference in this world dear, you're such a good communicator, words make a difference! Thank you!
Man!! Damn!! Thank you for this video! I'm from Brazil and here is really fuc*** hard to learn English or any language. We don't have the right motivation and speak another language is a "social problem", I mean, I from the "ghetto", we're black people, we are poor, and grew up learning that study language is for "rich people". I discovered your channel because I decided by myself to change this and your words touched me!! thanks and thanks again!!!
My heart goes with what you're saying in this video. Love from Hungary, I'm a teacher of French (a special one hahha)
Hi Cristian (correct me if your name is wrong)!! I found your channel recently, and I really like it. Your message and the way how you explain is pretty clear. And, the most important, is light and so much fun. I agree with you. Language is a tool for communication. I`m Brazilian and finally, I`m here in the U.S. It´s my opportunity to increase my English and open a different world of possibilities, knowledge, and communication. Have been tough days, but it will be great in end.
I'm an English teacher, Christian, have been for more than 40 years. You move me... I agree with every single word you've just said...
You are really interesting person. But it seems to me you don't know the way to change existing things order. The civilization built its societic instituts, one of them is educational sistem. It has its own logic and methods of transmission of knowledge to. To destroy, to sow doubts is easy. What's instead. Your activity has good intentions, but you need to have really working method with results admited by science. And your aproach maybe needs to be atteched to now existing without any revolution. Another way you'll be regreted. Sorry. Imho. You're really teacher and person deserving admiration
Christian! You're simply phenomenal. I wonder if you provide online teaching. Please let me know
Reality is like a cold shower.When person doesn't want to find something new that he does't know, he won't develop his skills.When you notice that you aren't perfect it's just you chance to improve something in yorself.It's normally to find weak points.More suspicious when everything is fine ,you are the best and you think that you know everything.Unlikely system of education isn't perfect and its doesn't has individual approach to all the students,if person doesn't know about material which studies to begginers but he knows about different gramatical aspects including highest education (for example) ,him isn't allowed to graduate because he makes mistake in simple situations,becase each level has its personal curriculum.I think it's clear, and it's real life and its "taste".
Many of people often faced this situation when they're lerned all "portion" of material which was given them and then they think that they know everything but when they faced some problems they decide to ignore them.Such action could lead to overestimating their possabilitiy.

Cooking is valuable fun, but sometimes you don’t have the accurate recipe. Obvious Things might not go according to inevitable plan, or you might mess up and use the redundant wrong ingredient.
I'm from Brazil and I decided to study English. I really love the way you show us the English language.
I had a similar problem with a teacher in a online conversation class. Every mistske I made she had no patience and she didn't try to understand what I was saying, on the contrary, she looked incredulous.
I felt upsed because I was paying for that class, but mainly because I know my daily effort to improve my speaking. After about one week....I got over and I restarted my classes with other teacher.
But this wasn't easy.
