amazing

I am analyzing your KZbin channel. I watch your videos regularly. You are making great videos but you are not getting that viewer according to your videos. As an SEO expert, I understand your videos are not SEO properly Basically, due to not doing SEO, your video does not reach a worldwide audience, due to which the video does not get views, likes, comments, and subscribers to the channel. As an SEO expert, I suggest you SEO your videos properly then your channel will improve a lot.

Love the idea of the challenge!!

Perfect timing!

It is very encouraging ❤

thank you! wish to find a way to buy these books from Russia. only found 'short stories' so far but already happy!

Learning one language is difficult enough, trying to learn more than one at the same time is almost impossible. You run the very real risk of failing to learn any language.

Thanks that was helpful. I'm currently using a process where I read a chapter, listen to the audiobook chapter while reading and then listen alone. It's really helping me aquire new vocab and also improve my listening skills

Appreciate the resources, thanks!

Wow crazy information

Listening to audiobooks to improve the target language while walking outside on a bright day works much better than working at a desk with a book and pencil. I think that walking has an effect that allows neurons to easily and naturally make connections between what we listen to as an audiobook in the target language and the knowledge we already have or have acquired.

Great tips!

Hi ! Thanks ! When I learn languages, I use guided meditations and body scan. I compare music with languages too and you give me a new idea : listen to musicians interviews (for example in German with Ivry Gitlis). And dancers... why not ?🎉❤😊

Yes ! Enjoy the process : it's the most effective way ! the brain is smarter than we think. Muchas gracias !

Thanks for the advice.

Thank you, great video!

Thank you for the great video!

Thank you!

I definitely enjoy reading a physical book while listening to the audiobook.

Beautiful language. Im using the mini stories on lingq myself. Great resource.

Maybe practice talking a bit more enthusiastic... Appreciate the information though. Have a blessed day! 🙏🏾

Loved the tips .. thank you ☺️

Lovely video, definitely something I am going to do. Will definitely have to bear in mind that as a dyslexic I have issues with certain colours, so red, orange and yellow post it's are useless for me...

Great tips 🤍

Where are you from dear?

Sou brasileiro, falo inglês e estou à disposição para possíveis conversações em Português.

I am very new to learning Portuguese , how does reading words that I have no idea what they mean help ? I do this with Brazilian song lyrics ( Sertanejo ) does that have the same effect ?

I think this is helpful. Thanks for sharing your experience!

I´m Felipe, from Brazil. That was excelentes tips, and definitely i will try. I have been studying English and russian, because i really wanna read Dostoyevsky and Tolstoy in original language. By the way, I'm sorry for the poor writing, I'm trying not use the translater. Bom trabalho, espero que consiga dominar o português.

muito obrigada, Kristin!! I haven't seen any of your videos before but seeing the bookcase behind you made me feel like you might recommend resources that fit my learning style as an avid reader and writer. looking forward to checking out more of your videos.

Good advice and suggestions from you, Kristin, about how to proceed when you're stuck writing. When I write my next piece, I will keep your tips handy.

Helpful. Thanks.

Excellent. Thanks.

I saw it first on an Instagram post by one of my favorite authors, Mariana Zapata. But it was Sara Cannon on her Hearts Breathing channel where I learned more about it. I don't see many others talking about it so it's great to come across this video. Thank you.

✔ As a Brazilian Portuguese native and language teacher I must say Portuguese is kind of a difficult language to learn. So, for those who want to learn Portuguese (Brazilian or Portuguese) fast your seat belts 😃

Great tip 😊 not really a writer but I’m learning a language and it’s an awesome way to either learn and practice new words and phrases.

This Japanese from Zero book series, I have all the books already purchased. I am not starting right now on Japanese as I am learning other langs. But these books really really look good to me.

I would like to add brazilian tv shows or novelas to your list. There is a lot out there. Avenida Brasil for examle, but many more. I feel it's more practical or sustainable train by listening to tv shows or movies. I've yet to read a book in brazilian portuese though, I think it would do me good too.

Why do you look like you are reading from a script. You look like a robot. Try to relax next time you make a video.

This was a great inspiration to set my own goals for this year. Thanks a lot!

thank you so much for you

How much progress can you make from just grammar books and reading? I feel like comprehensible input, listening to the português is very important. Pimsleur is better for complete beginners since you are getting that portguese audio. You can read on the side.

Enche meu coração de alegria ver outras pessoas aprendendo essa língua tão linda e tão rica que é o português, principalmente o brasileiro. Amo minha terra, amo meu povo, amo minha língua materna, amo os sons do meu Brasil <3

Ótimo vídeo, Kristin!

I needed this Duolingo can only get you so far

sounds like a good way to plan the story. I like the color-code idea, will give it a try.

Assaz prazeroso, para um brasileiro, deparar-se com um entusiasta da nossa língua materna. Bons estudos.

Great information and thanks for sharing. How do you suggest that a language learner track their progress? How can you determine how much vocabulary you've learned exactly? Thanks for your input.

I've always been more of a pantser when it comes to writing, but I recently got stuck trying to untangle the Gordian knot a new story idea got itself into. Two other authortubers I've watched also mentioned the Way of the Post-Its and, not willing to endure the necessary set up and agony of spread sheets or contending with the learning curve of the Scrivener cork board, I've opted for the simple hands-on approach. As a visual learner I think the idea of Post-It notes and a couple of large foam boards will allow for a better perspective (literally) and speedier 'editing' to streamline the creative process. We'll see.
