Hello Tamara! Have been waiting to hear from you. Enjoyed your conversation on learning Spanish. My husband and I have been to Mexico numerous times and know the basic words but certainly not able to have a conversation although we have no plans on moving there. Your wind chimes in the background sounded beautiful. Happy to see you and hope all is well. Bye for now from Canada ❤
Thanks for mentioning Sanjay Gupta. I really enjoy your videos. Really good video. I took Polish in High School 1 semester. Korean 2 dialects military terms -9 months Defense Language Institute-US military. And Spanish 1 semester in college, did well but forgot almost everything. I’m not fluent either but took 4 sessions in San Miguel de Allende and Duolingo and other ways. Very good suggestions. I’ve been to conversational tables at times. You made an important video here I go night clubs like Scallion and practice with Mexican people. Also at coffee shops. Listen to music. I frequently go to church services in Spanish. Google translate when needed but not as much as 5 years ago. You said a lot 👍
Do you focus your studies on present tense only? How much do you "really" use in daily conversations, past tense, future and so on? I feel most lessons attack way too much grammar for beginners. Haven't seen you for a while. Glad you are well.
Thanks for watching! I'm fine, just busy. Spanish with Paul does start with present tense. It seems fairly balanced in terms of grammar and vocabulary. It is a very systematic method of gradually building on what has been taught. It is very easy to get overwhelmed if you look at tables of the verb tenses, so I pretty much stick with the lessons and not worry about what I haven't learned. It can feel hopeless if you don't narrow things down.
@@anythingispossiblenow Thanks for replying and I’ll continue to view and recommend your channel. It’s refreshing and informative. I’m in the USA at my home temporarily but I didn’t plant as many flowers here this year. I saw some of your earlier videos too 👍
