[@joannejennings7649]

I am enrolled in your complete course and am having good results. I translate in espanol while going about my daily activities, shopping , watching television, and other things that occupy my day. Thank you so much Senor Paul.

[@SB-qs9zu]

One of my favourite Spanish teachers, Sr. Paul. So systematic, effective and gentle! Gracias.

[@sonukakkarofficial]

The best teacher i have ever come across 👏🏻 Creo que me voy a aprender español pronto porque has hecho las lecciones muy fácil !! Muchas gracias 🙏

[@paulhorwitz]

Paul - I think you're an incredible coach - I cannot afford your paid classes but these videos are so helpful. Learning a language takes dedication, patience and a lot of time - in my case, I think it will take years, but having structured videos like this are invaluable and they 'make sense' - and I'm extremely grateful you put the time and effort into these - thank you!!!

[@murphypaschal]

Great teaching methodolgy. Also a very reassuring voice. Thanks Paul.

[@soniaazambre615]

No one speaks so clearly like you do, Paul.And yes , excellent teaching method.Muchas gracias Paul.

[@Revoswathead]

[@karmaking1263]

Paul: you are simply the best, better than all the rest. Thanks a million bro

[@suzanaknezevic4402]

Paul, it is because of you that I look forward to Mondays. This is another great lessons. As I always say, I love your teaching method. I learned today that I am almost to the preterite form in your extended class. Chapter 6, here I come!!! :) A million thanks!

[@sjenx1]

I meant to say, your Main Course.

[@logoszachariel9310]

thank you very much, I'm learning the pronunciation of English around here. I speak Spanish, I read all the comments to help me with the phrases.

[@ToddMetalhead]

Your the best. I'm slowly studying all your lessons and when I have a form grasp on all of them I will be buying your course 100%

[@dr.achalgarg2626]

Thank you, Paul. I never thought learning Spanish could be this easy.

[@playwithpets]

You are a great teacher!

[@CzechWithKaterina]

This helped a lot! I would love more videos on this tense using all the persons (I you he we you they).

[@sets51]

Hi Paul, as always, you make it very easy to understand. I don't always comment here, because I am usually listening and studying while I drive to work and back home, but I do love the way you instruct us. Thank you very much. I have purchase your complete lesson already, but I have only logged in to it once or twice yet. I am planning on getting to it soon.

[@zulkiflijamil4033]

hablar. Remove the -ar part, replace by - é ; thus hablé ( i spoke ). Thanks so much Paul.

[@tcbtayri3609]

I have struggled on my Spanish learning at before. Your mini Spanish Course is great. Cannot imagine my Spanish can be improved in a very short moment. I do thank you so much.

[@ALMIGHTYKINGDICKY]

[@SpanishWithPaul]

[@Dockersable]

como siempre:muchas gracias Paul. me gusta mucho estudiar contigo

[@InnerBouquet]

Thanks Paul. This is a wonderfully useful and effective lesson! Love the pace, clarity and the way you keep eliciting responses from the student keeping him/her continually involved.

[@777Dells]

If it simply made, easily understood and ready to get you speaking in the real world, then it is from Paul. Me pongo feliz cuando veo tu video. Muchisima gracias, Paul.

[@mimilumba6042]

You really make Spanish easy to learn

[@nicedog1]

Excellent teaching method. Muchas gracias senor!

[@mredawardani2311]

Jazakallah khayr ! Such a helpful lesson, I have one year with Spanish if there's a teacher like you ! Great job May God bless you

[@jerryst.george2731]

Another excellent aide today, Paul. Muchas gracias!

[@Kimmysimmer14]

Hi Paul, I've been through all your mini courses and I am proud to say that my vocabulary and comprehension has improved since I first started learning. I am very pleased and impressed by the way you teach. I've learned more from your mini courses than I have in my 4 years of high school. Thank you so very much for making these helpful videos!! If I purchase the course will it make me fluent or do I have to surround myself with Spanish speaking people to become fluent in Spanish?

[@rose-marielopez1514]

I think there is a mistake (this morning) is esta manana. ps I love your courses, you make it so easy to learn thank you. I am hooked on your videos

[@edelweisssymons7444]

A superb lesson- so clearly explained. Thank you Paul

[@anitaspring1]

Wonderful, as always. Thank you Paul.

[@goudhaantje3569]

In Spain (not elsewhere) if there still is a relation with the present like in "Today" they use Pretérito perfecto = haber + participio. Hoy ha comprado un regalo. Gracias. Me gustan tus cursos.

[@richardjay7498]

This is another great piece of work. You explained "The simple past " so well. I look forward to next Monday's episode.

[@benzun9600]

Best online teacher

[@irinajorgensen5114]

You are amazing, Paul...Thank you so mucho!!!!

[@travelproof]

Good and structured lessons to help learn and understand past tense in Spanish.

[@TomM-rx8jj]

This is the best I have found so far. Thank you so much.

[@jatindersawhney5446]

Amazing teacher.....

[@georgelambert5062]

Two thumbs up!! I plan on buying your program ... soon. Thanks much!

[@tammybarboza8431]

Thank you paul I have been listening and learning from you for a year I just love it and can make simple conversation with people now Tammy

[@MSINGH-r5i]

Hi Paul. Thank you so much. I m learning lesson 2. I m confident that I will learn to speak Spanish very soon. You are wonderful. God bless you my brother. I m soon going to buy your full Spanish course.

[@myema5694]

You are SO good...I just found your channel and it's inspired me so much.

[@queenb407]

I appreciate you making these videos. I bought your full course and the new vocab. I’ve only been studying since the end of December so about a month and a half and already I feel like I’ve learned sooo much! You are an amazing teacher:)

[@mimosadiva]

how is your spanish now? have you continued doing the course?

[@robertserban2008]

Yeah im also curious.

[@jimbob8199]

I am a member of the SWP-Club. The audio-drills are great! Especially when you get into levels 6-9. These are done by Elena, his assistant who is a native speaker. She also has a great accent.

[@stephenbrown1016]

very useful tips again Paul as i have been learning the tenses in the past & they are very tricky

[@gulqulab335]

thanks Paul again you are more them the best

[@dcavanaugh310]

I highly recommend Paul's paid course, it is totally worth the money. His KZbin videos are great, but his main course goes much more in depth. I just finished level 6, I am not fluent yet, but I definitely feel much more confident that I will be in this coming year (hopefully...).

[@jimbob8199]

Levels 6-9 are where it gets really to another level. Once you finish the course, you’ll be good to go on the speaking, but one must always be improving the listening. I recommend watching the news in Spanish, because they articulate well. Also, I watch Caso Cerrado regularly to listen as different hispanohablantes express themselves in different manners, using different dialects and accents. We need great listening skills so we won’t get disappointed by not being able to understand idiomatic expressions that are commonly used by different native speakers.

[@prernakarkhanis1948]

i liked your video very much..very helpful and easy to understand

[@franksrooms4010]

In example around the the 16:00 minute mark it seems you were interchanging ‘mas temprano’ with ‘está manana’

[@candy8391]

I'm not sure if he meant to or not.

[@raybowens3765]

I noticed it too, I think it was a simple mistake.

[@mlmiller2267]

I love that you stayed with just the "I" plus the AR verb past tense. It drilled it in my head really good. Shows what an insightful and skilled teacher you are.

[@arnoldsyakabimuyanda6673]

Briliant presentatiion!

[@ngelezamosesofficial8544]

Estoy feliz de su manera de explicar. Gracias

[@bhawnajotshi8088]

Estoy feliz que me explicó bien. También te déjame practicar. Muchas gracias de India.

[@bettychilldres688]

Hi Paul "en la playa"... Ha!! I have been learning from you for about 1 year now... in which I've learned MORE Spanish than ALL the years I've tryed on my own!! WOW... thank you SO MUCHO!! * I think ALL languages ought to be taught in this manner!! 🙄😁 * I DO APOLOGIZE FOR "NOT" commenting earlier last year shortly after starting with your you tube lessons. 🤔

[@karamokodrammeh2098]

[@ronjames-music]

[@thaiCase]

Perfect spanish class ever 🖤

[@OdysseyCubing]

A new upload by Paul! I was so happy when this showed up in my sub box!

[@SpanishWithPaul]

Thank you! I hope it gives your Spanish a nice workout this morning.

[@jagjitpalkaur5601]

Thx pual for this lesson........

[@Bit-while_going]

I like the pace of your lessons. Often I can get out the answer without pausing. If I can't then I know where I need to work. Already I feel like I can speak though and feel like I am being spoken to.

[@juliaappel2172]

Wonderful course as usual. Do you have plans to do a course on the past tense for tu, he ,she ,it, nosotros, vosotros ?

[@SpanishWithPaul]

Hi Julia, I'm not sure. I go in-depth like that for my main course. On KZbin I tend to just scratch the surface of things.

[@legaleagle46]

Paul is right. The full extent of the preterite (to say nothing of its uses in contrast to the imperfect) is really beyond the scope of these mini-lessons. However, I can give you the full conjugation of "hablar" as an example of a regular -ar verb: hablé, hablaste, habló, hablamos, hablasteis, hablaron. The endings are the same for all -ar verbs; any irregularities are in the STEM (the only two exceptions I can think of are estar "to be" and andar "to walk"). Also, unless you plan to spend a lot of time in Spain, you really won't need to use the "vosotros" forms. "Vosotros" is only used in Spain. Everywhere else, the plural of "tú" is "ustedes."

[@akbarkhujakholikov1811]

Hello Mr Paul how are you ?? Thanks for your time ones again, that My Spanish language and comunacation skills are improving day by day through your lessons, than I could imagine, I will wait next Monday. Please you will never tired in your life, that's making this kind of videos FOR US.

[@adbeddow1]

Thanks again Paul, I look forward to Mondays.

[@SpanishWithPaul]

Great to hear that Dennis, thank you very much!

[@sunnyayoubi1070]

Muchas gracias Paul ❤

[@xalbishqwerty8272]

Thanks Paul again, very helpful. are you going to cover the imperfect? Would be helpful as well thanks!

[@moutasim2939]

great.. thanks...you have solved my problem ... thanks for useful lessons. hasta luego,

[@debbieloter9562]

Gracias Paul!

[@kaylaz.680]

gracias mucho...... your videos are very efficient and useful

[@dodojarmann1314]

Estoy feliz que practiqué español contigo hoy. Me lo gusté mucho!

[@miguelangelsosarodriguez4700]

"Me gustó mucho" would be correct form. The verb "gustar: is very complicated even for native Spanish speakers .you conjugate the verb depending on who and what you are talking about.

[@larrynarvaez7545]

In using gustar (like) and encantar (love), what is liked or loved becomes the subject and who likes or loves becomes the direct object. For examples, 1. “I like to learn Spanish” becomes “To learn Spanish likes (pleases) me”. So, it becomes “Me gusta aprender español”. 2. “I loved the lessons” becomes “The lessons loved (enchanted) me”. So, it becomes “Me encantaron las lecciones”. 😊✌️

[@patsynuamah5213]

Another great lesson,Paul.Thanks very much

[@eleanorbaraquel7633]

You are a very good teacher, thank you very much for sharing, God bless!

[@S.N.M12]

So good lesson Paul

[@anulaluna]

You’re brilliant! Thank you!

[@LifeInMyHead928]

These are amazing lessons!

[@angelascanvasdelight1444]

I was waiting for this video! Thank you very much!

[@SpanishWithPaul]

You're welcome Angela, hope it helps you!

[@nimala.selvarajah7099]

Oh Paul you are awesome.very understandable.thank you

[@consuelodelapena6480]

Very helpful for me,I'm new here at Mexico.Gracias a to-do Paul.

[@haidersmokey4755]

You are the best teacher

[@craphead9842]

IMO all languages are difficult to learn except your own(mine being English) ... But if you can learn face to face or cara a cara then it will be easier for you..... Also use the voice record feature on your mobile to record words and phrases and listen to how you sound... Tony cuenca

[@Kallia_travels]

muchas gracias por todo!! 😍

[@nadiabouchra8567]

You're a good teacher and I"m a good student lol ! 😇😇😇

[@gauravkiitd03]

As usual great stuff Paul.

[@SpanishWithPaul]

Thank you! I appreciate your support :-)

[@dogwithwigwamz.7320]

I say it, but also write it - in order to become familiar with writing where the `accentuations` lay. I know nothing about languages, having spent most of my life concentrating on maths and science. But it seems to me that learning a language is as much about using ones eyes as ones ears. I came across Paul`s videos about a week ago and am getting about 99% of what is asked correct in both speaking and writing. I don`t suppose for a moment that things are going to remain this easy.

[@ninadouglas6289]

LOL! No, claro que no, Paul’s examples are quite simple, albeit commonly used by native speakers.

[@steveharper216]

Remember Paul, some of your students are European that visit Spain. For me 'esta manana' is this morning. Please highlight any differences in your lessons between mainland Spain and Latin America. Steve from the UK.

[@MrGMAN92985]

Steve Harper I was confused with that part also because he said this morning is esta mañana but he had it as mas temprano

[@peorlandi]

Steve Harper Hi, I'm native Spanish speaker, esta mañana means this morning, and más temprano means earlier, this is valid for both Spain and Latin America. I think it was well explained in the video. Cheers

[@sebbyh9764]

Steve Harper it's obviously a typo

[@mattanderson6672]

Gragias por sus lecciones Paul, estan muy util!

[@jwong3548]

Very clear explanation. Thanks Paul.

[@neveenfarajian8766]

Thank you Thaaaaank you very much you made me more confident to learn more with your excellent way ... simply the best

[@lynnepitcher7380]

Think I may be getting better at this. Started listening at 1.25 speed. Actually is easier to understand.

[@mideastmadness1]

I do all these lessons at 2X speed and wish there was an option for faster.

[@yournexxt5125]

Why u speed it up? Help more ?
