I listened to your lectures. I found them interesting.
I had a very good teacher of English. She taught me how to learn languages. She kept repeating that pronunciation and listening are the most important skills for the beginner. I think she was right.


Thank you, here you have a video answer. I talk about what comes first and the solution focused approach.

Cainntear, English conditionals are very easy. The problem is to make automatic all this grammar. I think the answer is always the same: REPETITION.

Take a look at this video:

Yes, discussion about languages might be very useful, but when we need them and about the language we are studying. Arguing again and again about methods doesn't help, because there is nothing new under the sun.

Anyway, being near perfect is very difficult. It is necessary a huge effort. No shortcuts.

And it is rather difficult for me, sometimes, to hear correctly what you're saying, your pronunciation souds somewhat unorthodox.


Your teacher is right, but I failed miserably using her approach. I began reading and learning languages was a side effect.

Regarding my accent, your teacher is right again. You need to listen a lot, including UNORTHODOX pronunciations. Why? Because English is an international language and you will listen a lot of weird pronuntiations. You need to get used to native pronunciations AND loopy pronunciations.

Anyaway, here you have my last ground-breaking video. It is about learning languages and KISS (Keep it simple and sweet)

Anyway, some input is always a good way. Some output is a good way, too. But it won't necessarily make your pronunciation sweeter.


I think my pronunciation is already charm, relaxing and sweeeet.

Alberto, if your English is so bad and your pronunciation worse, why should we listen to your language learning advice?



Here you have my answer:

If you like the Catalan language, here you have another video in this language.

I wrote a text about study skills several years ago and I have just recorded it.

No.

If you're not willing to discuss it here, don't bother. As has already been said, it's quicker to read a written response than watch a video.

Cheerio.
