je viens de découvrir ta chaîne et j’adore!! continue :)))

Hi Criss! Great job

If you feel like you can do more than the allocated time for a day, is it harmful to do it anyways? for example in the first 15 days, if i feel like studying for an extra 15 minutes, should I wait until tomorrow to do that?

Feb'25: Great plan for learning any language and develop consistency, thank you!

Hi Criss! I usually never leave comments but I really want to do it now to express my gratitude to you. I stumbled on your channel recently and I’ve been really enjoying your videos and the mindset you’re sharing in them. I like and appreciate a lot how supportive and understanding you’re of the difficulties and challenges which come with the language learning. I also enjoy the practical tips that you share, but your perspective is something that really stands out to me and that I relate to a lot. Thank you so much for your time, effort and wisdom that you share with us! Can’t wait to get my next paycheck to donate some money to you ^_^ Take care ❤

I've been doing this subtitles trick with RUclips for a while now and it's so great but lately the dualsubs extension on chrome updated so I couldn't highlight single words. But thanks to your recommendation I'll try that reactor. I'm a heavy reader and find it so easy just to read and soak up vocabs. I just translate a graded book in Google and enjoy it.

Honestly, the best way to handle those 'snaky natives' is to simply ignore them. For us as language learners it's sometimes difficult to see that these people have no knowledge about what it takes to learn a language and about the variety in their own language. Most people, not even natives, don't speak the standard variety of a language. There are almost always certain differences in how they speak which is a result of many factors such as socio-economic class, register, age and geographical location. Learning a language 'properly' is something that means something different to different natives without them even realising it. In fact, I bet that most people saying these kinds of things to you probably don't speak the local standard anyway. Just look at the UK, how many people actually speak RP or modern RP? It's definitely not the majority yet it's the standard pronunciation that we as language learners focus on. Also, since we are using different speakers from different areas of the country of our target language to learn pronunciation we will eventually pick up on things that are not part of the standard (or what snaky natives would call 'proper English'). Learning these people's idealised version of their own language is impossible because they themselves have no idea what it is supposed to sound like. Btw, this does not only affect pronunciation but also grammar, see for example double negation or habitual-be in AAVE.

and you are not native speaker of English ?!!! so impressed 😮😮

I'm not a native English speaker but from my point of view, your English is almost perfect. I've read some where about some cognitive factors and our learning speed and precision as we age and from what i saw, the best age to learn new languages and be perfect with no accent, is around 8 years old 😒 (not sure if this have strong evidence, but did make sense when i read at the time) . Looks like later in life we will probably always have something that will show were not a native speaker (of course, there must exceptional talents out there, the research is for general pattern for most people). Going for perfection may be good, but expecting it and getting frustrated when this perfection not comes, is not good. Well, about your way to solve these self doubts, i knew it, you looks like exactly as i described in some other comment around here ;) You kept calm and thought: 19:41 "and i was like...i know why I'm doing this..." and then confidence just come back, because you know what, why and how you doing what you doing. Just like i thought, you really seems to be confident and calm as a standard, like you know what you doing, at least most of the time (even if you disagree, you transmit these vibes). The entire content of your videos is inspiring, not just because of the language aspect, but also due to these little details and your overall style. That's really cool-keep going!

another great one, thanks for sharing your journey with us! :)

Snaky learners indeed! That is so rude (and inaccurate as well) to comment on your English. Great video!

I love your channel! You bring so much inspiration and good vibes. Thank you ❤

Are you an native speaker?

I got ALOT of helpful mindset shifts from this video… thanks for sharing Cris!

hi! i want to be as creative as possible on this channel and do my best to provide you with the information you need on your language journey. i also wanna keep it enjoyable to watch, so i'm avoiding ads. if you're enjoying my work and feel like supporting me, you can buy me a coffee if you'd like. if not, i'll still do my best to support you!! ☕ buymeacoffee.com/crisvin

I learned so much from this. Will do my best to do this. Yes, the art of showing up! Thank you for sharing ❤

I like this analogy between going to the gym and studying, sometimes it's, indeed, hard to understand the pain of studying, and this kind of thought helps us to trust the process I feel a little struck in french now that I've been on it for a while, maybe it's time to push myself a little more and that's what I'm trying to do

I think it would be really cool to see you speaking Japanese, Chinese, or Russian since they are famously difficult languages. Could you choose one of the three to learn next? Actually, it would be great if you documented your progress in a new language from the very beginning, showing us your approach, learning process, daily practices, etc., for three months. This way, we could see what’s possible and how far you can progress in one of these languages from scratch. You seem really smart-high IQ-so it would be amazing to see how much you can achieve in a challenge like this. I’m sure your channel would blow up after this! i want to see your confidence/cool vibes every day, I'm already missing.

Thanks for sharing the tips on being a consistent learner. One more thing I think is also important is that you should care about the quality of learning, rather than just reading some random materials.

Lol por un momento creí que habías aprendido español como segunda lengua y estaba flipando jajajajajajjaaj. Buen contenido por cierto!

I regret that I leave the video in watch later for a while. Insightful and organized ideas.

I just finished level 1 for 15days! I haven’t felt any improve, yet I’m gonna keep doing next steps! thankss

I'm a new subscriber just listening to you for the first time 👍🏾🇬🇧

i'll start level 1

Pls speak spanish and teach English to me

Wow thanks this is just what I needed!

"J''ai décidé " "j'ai du mal à me concentrer sur differents sujets" ou "il m'est difficile de travailler plusieurs taches en même temps" "en apprenant ". Lacher prise :tres bien lacher contrôle : pas bon. " Ne pas trop y penser" de moi a moi même : excellent.

Hi very good tips, just a question about the importance of "writting", in your point of view, do you think it's better with a pen or with a computer? Sorry for m'y poor level😅

Hola! Tengo curiosidad por saber cuál es el idioma nativo de tus padres, ya que considero que las personas que en casa hablan dos idiomas tienen más fácilidad para hablar un tercero o cuarto. Mi sobrino habla español y catalán. Tiene un buen nivel de inglés incluso mejor que el mío que , por cierto, llevo estudiando décadas. ¿Qué opinas? Gracias.

Your videos are so cool and inspiring

Hi I recently came across your channel and I find your willingness to genuinely help others by sharing your own journey of self-sufficiency in learning to be very inspiring. You've done very excellently for yourself so I don't think you will need this but I'll share it anyway. I've also taught myself the complexity of English and one thing I did (and this is probably going to sound like a dweeb-like thing to do) was read US supreme court decisions. They are not only valuable in expanding your technical expertise of the language but also challenge your method of forming logic. The use of language in the field of law in general I've found to be an insightful look into how much influence language has on how we organize society itself. In this regard a youtube channel I've found interesting is Strict scrutiny. And also Elizabeth Prelogar's way of forming arguments. Additionally, two channels unrelated to law but focused on learning you might enjoy are Veritasium and Tibees. Hope you find these suggestions interesting. Wish you the best in your journey of excelling at self-motivated learning!

Je suis française et je suis impressionnée. Pas assez que la forme est super (excellente diction, très bon vocabulaire), le fond était tout aussi intéressant, j'ai appris des choses. Merci beaucoup pour tes vidéos qui me motivent à apprendre sérieusement l'italien :)

Excuse me how long you took for be a c1 and congratulation!! U deserve it

I'd rather stick to my 'abrupt' model of consistency. One day 30 mins, another 15, third 1 hour. Because effective learning depends on a variety of factors like: how well you slept, how well you fed your body, was your work day intense and your relations with others non stressful. Sometimes 'I don't feel like it' can give you a great boost the nest day. Once again, don't mold yourself to a system, mold a system to you.

Hi Cris, love your videos so much. Can you share how you take note new vocabulary in notebook and review them? especially when you’re reading, thanks in advance

many thanks

This. is so valid!! If you can't do 15 min for 15 days, you aren't going to be able to do 1 hour for 15 days. I actually like and agree with this concept. I also don't think you necessarily have to limit yourself IF you want to do more... but this is so on point with language learning is not a sprint, it's a marathon

this is very useful, thank you! :)

My first time didn't skip a second every word was helpefull and the plan is so simple to follow thank you soo much

You are so necessary, thanks for sharing your experiences with us, I'm from brazil and you motivated me to improve my english skills a lot.

I really liked the format of this video, also, Hungarian is very interesting to hear, what an unique language I'm brazilian and I've been focusing on learning french, I guess a recent milestone is that I've been managing to hold longer conversations than before - without having to pause a lot

I am a native Chinese speaker and I have been learning Spanish for a month, I stick to it for one hour a day. Language learning is always a spiral, and progress is often slow, but I have developed a habit.

it's interesting and I think for me personally input is more important thing. I mostly listen to something. I read too but really less then listerning or watching something and in the order to Output, I think , writing is my favorite I see it as a way to think in language at the same time spelling is not my strong skill so, I use time to time Google Translate to speak my sentences or some thoughts and it transcribe it for me and then I do my correction I use head righting notes too so, I combine a few methods on a daily basis it's really helpful and I can share my thoughts on social media like I do it now and can get some feedback and exchange an experience. it's really inspiring and make me more confident at using the language

I love all of your contents, do you have a instagram account, I would like to see you more on my social media, keep going with this amazing content!

Szia! Nagyon jól beszélsz magyarul, le a kalappal előtted! Gratulálok!😊 I’m learning French and English, and I really like your advices. Thank you!

Hey,,I am from bangladesh,,, I really likes your videos ,,,"Will you make a video on how to prepare for IELTS to achieve a good score?"

thank you so much, im learning english right now. and im struggling with speaking and writing. im going to use this method. bless you.

Thanks for the video, I’ll try learning Rust using this framework

This is not related to the content, but I want to be like/look like you: confident, cool, and calm. It feels like you always know exactly what you're doing, no matter the situation. It's as if you're prepared for anything that comes your way, and you exude this calm, cool vibe. Is something about your eyes and the way you talk...
