5 Reasons Why You Should Learn Spanish - I Almost Quit...(Language Learning Motivation Tips)

[@chuckparrish2566]

I am a seventy one year old dude in Seattle Wa. Studying now for about seven months. Just wanted to let you know that I like your style and manner of talking about yourself and your path. You make a lot of sense. I can look to others for specific training in Spanish. Thanks.

[@MikeBen]

Thank you!

[@mirrorgalaxy6273]

May i ask you Sir. how’s your progress now with spainsh?

[@disarmsox]

6. When you speak another language, you adopt another culture. When I'm speaking Spanish, I feel like a different person.

[@MikeBen]

Agreed!

[@LIVEINPEACE2023]

Well said!

[@Monielleguy]

absolutamente.....

[@arquitect1966]

I find it’s easier to absorb when you enjoy what you’re doing. Personally, with my studying if it gets too much like work it puts me off. I listen to music all the time, read occasionally, but most of my learning is listening. A tip I recommend for people is if you don’t feel like studying at least go over a part of your day in your desired language and it will keep it fresh.

[@MikeBen]

Very True! Finding motivation like that is so important

[@dg7438]

Great video! Also, Florida. With the Cuban population, etc. it's mandatory. Also, Spanish is one of the easiest language for English speakers to learn, compared to German, Russian, French, etc.

[@MikeBen]

I agree, I’ve heard that there are parts of Florida where it’s difficult to live day to day without knowing at least some Spanish

[@paulbradford6475]

Sage advice Mike. Thank you. I'm retired. I started to study Spanish to surprise my niece who'd taken it as a minor in college. That was six months ago. My progress is slow (I'm no where near conversational yet) but I see incremental improvements in my comprehension. For example, when I watch a Spanish Netflix series, I'm able to follow the dialogue - subtitles help - a bit faster each time. Every time I do an exercise, I make plenty of mistakes, but I also have plenty of spare time on my hands so making mistakes doesn't discourage me. My attitude is that a brick by brick approach is a slow, but steady way to build the house. It will take time, but the house will be built. Keep up the good work.

[@MikeBen]

Thanks and I completely agree, it’s a long process!

[@violinfairyqueen]

Thank you so much for this video! My biggest hurdle is feeling bad that I didn't start learning Spanish earlier in life/as a child. It makes me feel so much better to see another adult starting a new language.

[@MikeBen]

I'm glad this helps, I've found my discipline to be much better now as an adult so we have advantages as adult learners!

[@mlmiller2267]

I started learning Spanish twenty years ago and because I kept stopping (sometimes for years) and starting again, I STILL have great problems understanding native speakers and of course my vocabulary has suffered greatly. Now 20 years have passed and I think to my self how fluent I would be if I had never stopped.

[@MikeBen]

It’s never too late! Sigue adelante!

[@mlmiller2267]

@@MikeBen Absolutely, I'm on it. No stopping this time .

[@Michal50071]

For me personally, ever since I started acquiring Spanish, the love for the language started to snowball really fast. There hasn't been a single day when I'm like I don't feel like studying or learning new stuff, there's little to no resistance. I shouldn't even call it studying, because it doesn't feel like a study when I enjoy it so much. Momentum is a really powerful tool once you know how to take full advantage of it.

[@MikeBen]

I agree, momentum is a powerful thing

Hello Mike I just started 2weeks ago because in the past few months I came across 3 beautiful women.2 from Columbia and 1from the DR.Only one spoke a little English and I hung out with all 3( different times) but I had to use google translator and it dosent really express how a person feels.It’s good for quick convo but not for everything.I’ve been to Brazil a few times (same scenario) translator.So now I’m only focusing on Spanish.Anyone who watches your videos know you have a good spirit.I started using duo lingo but that takes forever.With determination and consistency I know I can do this.Thanks Mike you are a true blessing to myself and to many others I am sure.Stay blessed young fella✌🏽

After 26 years on and off learning Spanish, I found motivation to quit. Main reason, I really cannot find connection to the culture and people. Also important, the speed that natives speak makes it impossible to understand, produces unnecessary stress and removes enjoyment from speaking the language. Lastly, I have lost motivation to visit any Spanish speaking country.

[@MikeBen]

Everyone has their own opinion

[@jaime-tm7rj]

It doesn't only happen with Spanish, French also, your family will not understand why are you learning that language. In short, believe or not, not everybody has that quality or that gift of learning languages, so don't feel as an outcast especially in North America, remember that speaking more than one language is the norm in Europe.

[@MikeBen]

Very true

Sure you can totally learn spanish since spanish is actually very similar to English like the words actor and alcohol and admirable are spelled the same and mean the same also spanish is just an easier language of the English language so you can get good it sooner than you think to meet you goals.

I took german in college. I have not had the need to speak it. However spanish would have been useful.

Agreed, in just one year I've learned its such a valuable skill

[@Simaurien3]

I agree with your perspective. While I do travel to the destinations you named, I live in Arizona. Spanish is beneficial to me in my regular everyday life, to simply communicate with more people even it’s as simple as being in the grocery store.

[@MikeBen]

Agreed, places like Texas, Arizona, Florida, and New York are great places to be to have & use this skill!

[@Aware506]

Great work! I agree. I love Spanish, but sometimes I feel like my progression has hit a wall or is at least slowing down. I continue to study, but often ask myself when will I be at a much better level. I have been studying for 1 year and 7 months. I can’t understand the lyrics to a lot of songs and there are certain topics that I can’t understand in conversation, even though I’m conversational. I know I’ve come a very long way. I either listen, read or speak for a combination of at least 2 or 3 hours a day and have been for over a year. I always thought that I would be near native at this time when I first started. Now I see that this is a very long long journey. I will continue though because I have made Spanish speaking friends.

[@MikeBen]

Agreed Dale, its a long process but its worth it in my opinion!

[@myfunmi27]

Just like Mike said, it is a long process. Try to expose yourself to more of the language by reading books, reading the news and talking to several natives. Even then it still takes time because sometimes it takes us three to four times hearing the same phrase for it to become part of you. Just trust that every time you expose yourself, you learn.
