It’s amazing how far we can go in a language learning process and not know the most basics like numbers and letters 😂 well done!

Three years in and I can't count past 100 😂

@@baqi8648can you carry on a convo? What do u think your level is now?

[@NewyorksMagic]

I'm 1 month into learning Spanish and it's exhausting and stressful. At moments i feel like wow I'm really getting this and other moments i'm like i don't know how i'll ever get this but videos like this really help me trust the process. Thank you.

[@Ledhoven]

Im just over 3 months I remember the first month gave me headaches so I can relate but I’m seeing from this video that if you persist something clicks around 6-10 months.

[@pureone8350]

Yeah me too and like damn! The conjugations are overwhelming and it's frustrating that when you think you have gotten somewhere, you're completely lost when someone speaks Spanish or when you watch a Spanish speaking video.

[@DarkE93]

9-month update?

yoo give us update bro

[@ItsFavourOnwuka]

This video is very inspiring! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 It’s so encouraging to see the progress that can be made in a short amount of time with consistency and not being afraid to make mistakes! Espero mi progreso puede ser el mismo :)

That’s exactly what I hoped I could deliver on, thank you so much❤️‍🔥

I’m about to start Spanish and Japanese at university and I swear I’ve never been more motivated by a video in my life

[@emigrace]

wow I love that you're doing both Spanish and Japanese!:) wow, I'm so happy to hear that 🥺💓

[@agame-jv6zv]

I took 2 years and like a half to reach what you did in one year. Incredible progress

[@emigrace]

thank you🥺 but a B2 in 2.5 years is honestly really impressive!!! and I have to credit a lot to this YT channel for my fast progress:)

[@NickHoddinott]

Just wanted to say thanks for making these videos and your channel. Zero to B2 in a year is super impressive. After 7 years of false starts in Spanish (do I win a procrastination award?) I'm finally taking online classes and determined to get to A2 level in 12 months. It's great to see someone else actually do it.

[@PolyglotProgress]

I loved getting to see all your progress over the year condensed down into one video (also! the editing! so good!) I'm looking forward to seeing your Spanish journey over the next year too!

[@emigrace]

Thank you so much🙏🏼💞

[@justemichel]

I love reading an Abigail comment under an Emi video. When thinking about my youtube subscriptions - both your channels always come side by side. I love listening to both of you. Not sure if it comes more from your voices or the way you speak.

[@LDN_MZK]

'screen recordings' = 'Grabaciones de pantalla'. Seriously you are really learning fast, and your accent is totally on point. Good work! keep going, I think you have a natural talent for language.

[@anna7276]

So inspiring! You’re awesome!

[@nicolescott5408]

this is so inspiring I'm getting back to learning Spanish and I'm so glad I came across your channel !

awwwwww i love this video!I just started learning Spanish and I was hoping someone out there had a video like this so inspire me. Thanks so much for making it!

[@Shin-xr2fn]

you're videos are motivating! i started to learn spanish a few months ago and i want to do what you did. keep up the great videos!

[@morganportee]

this is so inspiring i teared up a little ngl i learned spanish as a second language in college and let me tell you, you learned more in a year than i did in 4 and you retained which is sooo good! im picking back up my studies and am glad i found your lovely channel

[@callmek5]

hi!! i’m currently learning spanish too-as in, i learned tiny bits in school and then 2 years ago when i first wanted to, but didn’t fully commit! so now i’m back and it’s been maybe, a week? or two? and i’m nowhere close to being good LOL but i really love this video and it instills a lot of confidence in me! seeing u so excited about learning actually motivates me to keep going! thank you so much

[@drishtithakur960]

Perfect! Just the video I was looking for. It's new year and one of my goals for this year is to learn Spanish at the end of it. Your video gives me so much motivation, it's just been two days and I'm loosing interest and motivation, but watching your video makes me feel like, if you can do it, I can do it too. Gracias!

[@nathanregier9662]

Way to go! Your accent is really good and even from the beginning I don't know but it sounded very natural for learning Spanish, it's amazing to see your progess after just one year!! Iv'e been learning for over a year and hope to never stop improving. cheers!

[@marsmallow_17]

This is such a motivation to my Spanish journey.

[@EduardoPerez-bq8qf]

Its really inspiring that you put yourself out there when starting from zero! It takes a lot of courage and you made such amazing strides! Felicidades! Te mereces tu recompensó!

[@yenvo2519]

This is inspiring honestly. I started to learn Spanish in summer 2023 with the basics , but then I procrastinated for months. And I have been working on my Spanish for the past 2 months now ( by the end of 2023 I restarted ) , I find Spanish super difficult because of the complex grammar . But I will be try, I set a goal to achieve level of B1 by the end of this year 2024. I’m so excited. It’s hard but I think it’s worth it, thank u so much for the video

[@gleadervideos]

Your journey is truly inspiring. I accidentally came across your channel looking for Spanish material. I also lived in Japan, and then Mexico. And I love watching your videos having many of the same references as you, and I feel like I'm not alone with the challenges of learning a language (especially living in a country where they don't speak it). I am also working up to a B2 level, since I want to return to Mexico. These videos are so fun and realistic and cute. Keep up the good work!:)

Hi Emi , I loved this video I've been learning english for about 8 months by myself and unfornately I never had the chance to speak in English with somebody , everyday I watch many videos on youtube , tv shows listening radios but some weeks ago I started to feel unmotivate idk why but I just stopped getting vocabulary but u give me so much good vibes that I gonna do hardwork to achieve my fluency, thank u so much!

[@Ghost____Rider]

What I'm impressed by is your accent at the beginning! Even though you didn't know much Spanish, your pronunciation was pretty much on point already

[@emigrace]

Thank you!! Although I really need to credit that for being Japanese, since Japanese and Spanish share a pretty similar pronunciation :)

@@emigrace oh really? I did not know that despite having watched a lot of anime recently haha But I guess anime isn't the best depiction of the language

Graciassss🙏🏼💞

[@jesuslovesyourichly]

This is so encouraging! I have tried my best to speak spanish but haven’t passed that threshold and it always feel like I hit this ceiling and can’t learn anymore. It’s honestly really frustrating and I hardly leave comments like this😭 thank you for showing vulnerability. It’s really awesome to know I don’t have to be perfect at it. I will keep trying, even though this process has emotionally zapped me (and I want to be able to teach my family but it’s way more complicated than what I expected). I thank God for you, sis!

I have such a hard time with being motivated to keep up a skill or task! Especially having bad mental health it’s hard to stay positive about things you love to do! Watching your videos make me motivated and it makes me feel like I’m not alone! Seeing your progress, you struggling in the beginning, shows me that it will be difficult but it will become easier as I go on! I just need to keep on pushing myself and put effort into studying or practicing it! I’m currently using the language transfer app and it’s helping me a lot! I don’t want it to be my one source of resources! I have my friend from🇻🇪who is teaching me the alphabet and syllable endings! She is currently in school so I only have notes for those two topics! I want to go on further but I don’t know what I should learn next, do you have any ideas??

[@emigrace]

It makes me so happy that my videos can motivate you in any way or shed a positive light to learning a language:)🤍 hope that you can find ways that makes learning Spanish fun for you!:) I personally used a program called Pimsleur for the first two months, and then moved on to a textbook called Assimil:)
