      This is my first time to listening English with Thiago UA-camr when I listened 2 episodes I realize the episode is really good to me and also very friendly to English learner as well. Actually I am struggling with my English learning for many years, I think my English is between B1 and B2 level but I want to improve my level to C1 or C2 but I don’t know how to improve it. Thanks god I found this English with Thiago, I really happy to learn English with Thiago I hope I could join the private class❤🎉.

      Because you listen more than speak;you are building your comprehensible skills without speaking, is similar that you have a book of how to drive a car -you read it ,and you can answer any questions about driving,but you can't drive in the real life. I have the same problem.

    Hello Thiago, I have just listened to your whole podcast - I arrived here by accident or unintentionally due to the Google algorithm. I am a native English speaker (I was born just outside the London conurbation area {literally 250 metres outside}). I listened because I thought you might have offered ideas for my ongoing journeys into both Spanish & French. You did. Can I first very much congratulate you on your proficiency in English. I would certainly score you as a C2 speaker. For what it's worth, although I _can_ tell you're not a native speaker, I _could not_ determine your native language until you stated you're Brazilian. *WELL DONE!* You have given me some food for thought in what you explained about your studies which I shall try to employ as tactics for myself. Just like you, since taking up learning Spanish, I've not been out of this country at all to go anywhere - so I practice with natives here in the UK whenever or wherever I can find some and get the opportunity. The advice I'd pass onto your students and followers is to quote Winston Churchill; quite simply - *Never give up, **_never EVER give up!_* Little by little every day, you'll get there eventually - but don't forget to enjoy the journey and laugh at the mistakes too.
    Although I currently speak neither French nor Spanish as well as you do English, becoming proficient in both has opened a lot of opportunities for me here in the UK just liaising with European companies who want to market their goods here (I have yet to approach the Central & South Americas). It has been worth the investment timewise and I will concur that I also derive great satisfaction in being able to read and / or understand quite complicated ideas written or spoken in both Spanish & French. _Puedo hacerlo & Je peux le faire!_ Keep it up & best wishes.

First, I studied by my self for years, then I started to study English formally in order to be a teacher. Now, my process of english acquisition is different and I keep learning and practice everyday. I think I still have a lot ro learn, but I'm in a place that I'm not afraid anymore to make mistakes. And it's one of the most incredible things, among others, that I've noticed in the process of learning English.. Thanks for sharing your story.

I started as an English teacher, and I switched to teaching Spanish after 13 years. Best decision ever; I work from home. Now I've finally improved my English because of my interaction (at least 5 hours a day) with native students from the US. Saludos.

    There is the same situation in Russia. Many people learn English at school but their knowledges are elementary, just some words or things like that. I wasn't an exception, unfortunately. And then we urgently needed to move in 2022. My husband had pretty good English level, but I didn't. So I immigrated without English and only started to learn it when I was 33 years old. It's difficult! Therefore now I always avdice everybody to learn English as soon as possible when you are young.

    A elite financeira maldita do Brasil tem o projeto de manter o povo somente com o conhecimento suficiente pra operar as máquinas de seus fábricas e qualquer trabalho que não queiram fazer. Não é atoa que o "novo ensino médio" é desenhado para tirar todas as matérias que estimulam senso critico pra colocar bobajadas como "bolo de pote", "o que tá rolando por ai", e é na minha opinião, a razão das aulas de inglês das escolas públicas serem 10 anos de verbo to be

    Hi Thiago! First of all, I'm a subscriber to the channel "RealLife English", but I didn't know this channel of yours. You're one of my inspirations to become fluent in English. I practice every day, I love grammar rules by the way and I try to become better at them. Last but not least. I really appreciate the knowledge you share with us!

      Glad to know you love grammar rules. I've always loved studying grammar as well. And I can tell you study grammar because your comment was really well written. Great job and keep it up!

    Congratulations on the video, I'm Brazilian too and I really enjoyed your experience.
    The caption with the yellow color moving from word to word helps a lot with understanding, I watch a lot of videos with the caption on UA-cam, but this one was the best. Being able to understand almost the entire video. Successes.

    This was very good! I just want to tell you as a native English speaker that your English is very good. You pronunciation is very good, and doesn't really have the usual characteristics of that of a native Portuguese speaker. I believe that people will benefit from this podcast, and I wish you success.
    Your story was really interesting too. I'm learning Spanish on my own now at 47, and I can relate to a lot of what you experienced! The internet is truly a great thing for language learning. There has never been a better time to try to learn a second language.

    Hi Thiago, I agree with every word you're saying, and our english-learning journeys have been very much alike. I remember back in 2006 I used icq to find english and german speaking friends to practice those languages. And I did find some great people, and we're still in touch today ☺ I'd also grab any opportunity I had to speak to foreigners, not just to practice my English, it was simply fun and exciting😋
    I'm happy I've found you. I feel like your podcast can encourage me to keep on advancing my skills coz I feel like I'm stuck.

    First of all I would like to thank you very much for the greatest video that I have watched on UA-cam platform of how we become fluent in English. Second of all, I would like to interduce myself, My name is Basil and I am form Saudi Arabia. Therefore, as an English learner as a second language I am so proud of myself that I understood the whole video or the podcast with my own inputs and to be more clear I have been learning English for many years like 4 years ago until now. However, here you have a new subscriber in your channel 😃. So I would like to thank you again for your efforts.
