I really love to practise my English, here's my number if there's a person wants to practise English conversation, I really will appreciate that. (00201024410394)
When I first figured it out I got the guts I needed to make an English test to be able to apply to jobs worldwide as an IT Developer. I passed the test, my English was evaluated as "Advanced", and now I'm just waiting for the best oportunity!
I understood almost everything! Like I can understand what people are saying but sometimes I can't speak. It's like I forget all that words and grammar that I learned... 😢
I'm the same, I thought that by listening a lot I would start talking like a baby learn how to speak, first they listen and then start speaking but I forgot that there is a lot of practice during this progress. HAHA! My advice is practice and practice and practice, talking to someone or like I use to do, I sit in a chair in front of my laptop, plug a mic and start talking and recording, about everythings that comes in to my mind, I've been doing this for 2 months, at the beginning you get frustraded a lot when you get stuck in a thought, but I have a powerful weapon in front of me, the internet, I do a quick research and try to figure out how to say what I want to say and this way, step by step you get confidence, I still have a lot to improve but, at least for me, this method made me improve a lot.
Willian Aguiar Souza Oh, congrats! I'll try that for sure! I'm learning 2 languages well... It's hardest than before I learned just English... In the past I talked to a friend, I guess I was really good doing that but now I'm so sad, I dont think I'll be able to speak English fluently... There's so many things to learn! I'm being crazy thank you for your answer. And please, let me know if I messed up what I wrote. :)

i really enjoyed your video, especially talking about culture shock, it's not like academic classes, it's about how people talk in your culture. Thanks you so much.
Thank you so much for this conversation! It really encourages nonnative speakers to improve their English skills 🖤 very natural, and straightforward :)
i enjoyed watching your video. I have lived in the US for 3 years however my speaking skills is not that good since I didn't socialize with locals. I will be watching your videos to improve my skills, thanks alot
Congratulations on the video. I would spend hours listening to you guys talk. I've already traveled to Europe with my weak English but managed to communicate with few words. People are very receptive when they know we are learning their language. I need to study a lot more. Two years or more maybe. You guys are very sympathetic Thank you very much.

Watching movies is one step ahead from speaking friendly English in person. Depending of the movie, they use lingo, slang, idioms and regionalisms........specific to the theme or story (by the way lingo, slang, idioms and regionalisms are each of one different)........many native speakers have problems recognizing the meaning of every single word of this "special/specific" vocabulary. Watching movies on TV could be frustrating, because as soon as you miss a word you lost the thread of the conversation............when this is happening you stuck on it trying to figure out "what they were talking about" loosing few seconds.........meanwhile the speakers in the movie are ending the sequence or there is another "thread" going on. My advise for you.......watch a movie but on a Hi Fi Set that allows you to repeat small sections and of course forward, rewind and stop. This way you will be able to pick up every single word and eventually if you want to say (repeat) all the movie fluently.
don't be worried, just for the each movie you'll be decided to watch add english subtitles, it had helped me a lot, cause I was having the similar struggling not that far at a past ( 2 years ago) , nowadays I am watching movies mostly without subs, anyway the process itself had swallowed a bit of a time but it was worth , just have a patience and get paused every single part, you are not sure about and check the subtitle and translate the word possibly :D, I have gotten all my language hearings skills just from the movies nearly, but it required a lot of time , which not many people are realising :D....besides the language and its enhancement is endless process... anyway it will never entirely substitute real living experience from English speaking country ,that's basically why I have moved up to England recently and must say that in compare with American accent , pronunciation, speaking etc is English english incomparable , harder but cleaner at the same time in its substance.
Movies are definitely harder to follow than people think but they are great to use for learning a language! Well done for understanding 25% :) Like others have said movies are very fast paced and use lots of advanced and slang vocabulary/phrases. I agree subtitles are good but also try not to always concentrate on just reading them. Find series/movies you enjoy watching and are interested in this will motivate you to naturally try harder to listen. You can even watch stuff you already watched in your native language to make it easier. Like most things the more you practice the easier it gets.
Is funny every time I hear the word "local", sounds like "loco" in spanish which means "crazy". "Local people", "local koreans" hehe :p. Thank you for this video, I really enjoyed it.
Can we talk directly for improve english....I want it soo much if you want....I got nervous when I speaking in english because....please help me improve my english....you can email me to dedek.saputra78@yahoo.com
Coach Vanessa, your explanation about the three different sounds of -ED ending is very clear. Great !! I would like to ask you some questions about the /t/ sound and /id/ sound followed by a vowel: [1] When a past tense word ending with a /t/ sound + a vowel, should we pronounce it still as /t/ or has changed to /d/ ? e.g. : "liked it" ---> /laik-TID/ or /laik-DID/ ? "helped him" -----> /help-TIM/ or /help-DIM/ [2] When a past tense word ending with an /id/ sound + vowel, should we pronounce it still as /t/ or has changed to /d/ ? e.g. : "planted" -----> /plan-TID/ or /plan-DID/ ? "paint" ------> /pein-TID/ or /pein-DID/ ? I would appreciate your kind reply. Best rgds, Melvin
Hey Vannesa! I would like to see you having conversation like this with your sister again. It's interesting and natural-! I'm Sean by the way, a member of fearlessfluentclub yay~!
thankfully I understood 100% about you was talking im a really fan of watch your videos i really love speak English because is another kind of way of meet and be friendly with another people. i love do that by the way I'm a native Spanish speaker
Hi Vanessa I noticed that your sister has some kind of accent, Has she always spoken like this or is it because she's been living outside of the US for so long that now she has a foreign accent?
It's likely that it changed while she spent time away. I am English but I have lived abroad for a while now and my accent has changed a lot. I also have friends from Europe who spent time in Australia and America and their accents have changed :)
@gaviotitas I too noticed that too. Her sister speaks with an accent. I think is because she has spoken Spanish for so long that it has carried over into her Accent. Also, she has been living in South American for a long time so it may have changed her accent as it's no longer a general American like Vanessa. Nothing wrong with that though because she is still able to communicate clearly though. But Vanessa has also lived abroad but she has no detectable foreign accent. Maybe is because she does not speak another language or maybe she does and she has more aware of her mouth movements so it does carry over in her American speech. Who knows
Well, personally I guess 4 years is not a long enough time for one to change their accent. However, I notice her sis does speak with an slightly heavy European accent.
I watched this video and I really like it. Every sentence is very natural and teachable. it is a good example for native speaking conversation. It was remembered me when I lived America 5 years after visited my own country and I really face to reverse culture shock.
Hi I am from India, and this video is really helpful for those who wants to improve their listening skills as well as speaking, I almost understood all the conversation I think this is the first tym that I could understand advance English of high level.
Interesting conversation. I lived several years in Paris (more than 12 years) and then I came back to my country of origine in Latin America. In the mean time Panama changed a lot economically. I live now in Panama and had an unexpected reverse culture shock, not only in relation to the new traits but also in relation to classic aspects of daily life that never bothered me in the past. This was not compensated by the wealthy of my country. After some years i still believe that several aspects must change.
