- FCB Brasil and the CNA language school network are launching the Speaking Exchange project, which connects CNA students in Brazil with Americans living in retirement homes. This meeting is carried out via an exclusive digital tool that uses video chat technology to bring the students face to face with Americans.

At the age of 15 I became a CNA student. At that point, I could not speak a single word in English. Now, at the age of 28 I am finishing my bachelor abroad which is entirely taught in English. This is partly because of CNA. Thank you CNA and congratulations for such an awesome and beautiful win-win initiative.
your english is fantastic btw
It's shit like this that makes a grown man cry!!
Agree. Those damn ninjas cutting onions and shit...T_T
u don't know him *****
This is amazing. I hope more and more schools start similar programs.
I am very proud to say that I work at this retirement community and know all of thise residents. This was an amazing project.
What a great use of technology AND human nature. Bravo / Valente
The real beauty of language is that it connects people.
I grew up never having any grandparents and this made me burst into tears. These old people were so sweet, it's a shame that they get so lonely and neglected by their families sometimes.
Charlie Chaplin said : "More than machinery, we need humanity".
This fits what he said in so many ways. Some faith in humanity restored!
I want to congratulate all the people responsible for this project. It is simple great!
This program should be expanded to retirement homes all around the world. What an incredible opportunity for students learning English and seniors, too.
Fantastic. They should have reunion somewhere, the whole lot of them.
I agree! :)
What a wonderful idea! Great inter-generational and cross-cultural experiences. We hosted a young student from Brazil (we are in Canada) and it was a wonderful experience. Thank you to FCB Brasil for this great video and showing how wonderful our world is and how technology can help bring people together! (all those negative comments should be removed - it is so ageist and damaging to our society)
*A wise use of modern technology!*
Both parties benefit here by forging friendships.
Great initiative, to bring peoples of different communities together.
I love it! I wanna talk to my grandmother now...
democlis vc por aqui kkkk!!
Bravo to the one who thought and realized this project, it is great !!!
Such a brilliant use of technology! I know the conversations are on a private channel, but if you can share more, we would love to see!
Great initiative! Brilliant idea! Congratulations! And I hope that this program will expand to reach more people who surely loved participating in this program must either already behind impressive results.
This is beautiful. And it's amazing just how far technology has come and how far it will continue to go.
WONDERFUL! I'm proud to be part of this company!
This is awesome!
English is my third language and I have worked as a Nursing Assistant in a retirement home in Phoenix, AZ, United States. As someone who has seen both sides up close, I find this initiative absolutely wonderful. I wholeheartedly wish this would spread and become a common program in many nursing and retirement homes throughout the world.
This is some feelgood stuff right here.
absolutely epic stuff did you know its possible to change your luck ? just do a quick search for this video *"Andrew B Channel"* and cheer me later :3
Rudy Roberson I had so much luck yesterday I don't want to push it.
This was beautiful. It's such a wonderful idea because many elderly people are lonely and would enjoy having someone to talk to.
I'm just in tears. What a wonderful idea! Old ppl have a lot of wisdom and love to share around the world. I'd to chat with them too.
Hats off for CNA! Simply amazing!
I used to love when I studied in CNA, I was too disciplined ... Good times that never comes again
However today I'm so grateful because it helps me a lot to improve my vocabulary and more than that my listening and comprehension .. and if wasn't it, probably I'd find some problems in my last Exchange abroad =)
Strongly recomend this school
Oh! It´s a fantastic idea! I was an CNA student. That school is amazing! The people who created this method of learning are just incredibles! Can you imagine, how it is for a person who was forgotten by the own family, talk to young people, that have a new vision of the world, some new histories to talk about. Just perfect! Congrats to CNA!
nos dias de hoje é raro ver alguma empresa buscando não só o lucro, mas também um projeto que ajude ambos os lados, parabéns a essa empresa, ela merece o meu respeito!
This means a lot to the seniors. It's not creepy, because these people are many times abandoned, these older folk are not creepy, speaking to them shouldn't be either, this warm's the heart of these older folk, and teaches respect and kindness to elders
Oh my God.. This is fantastic, really nice.
What a great idea. Too many divides in the world today and this is a great way of bringing people together with a positive outcome.
What a beautiful initiative CNA!
***** You are such an idiot!
Foi a atitude mais linda que presenciei nos últimos tempos. Parabéns ao CNA.
Yeah, this is the right way to use the Internet and new technologies, instead of wasting hours and days playing games and chatting uselessly..
I'd also like to have such a chance to improve my English ) And also I like speaking to old people, I understand them well and maybe if I had a chance to communicate with them I wouldn't miss my Grandparents so much(
Having fun is a waste of time?
Why not both?
why not zoidberg?
Why not combine them: gaming with old people while speaking with them on teamspeak! Grandpa I need a heal I need a heal!
Shuruto I do that. i practice my english when playing video games cause i play on american servers(im latin)
Shuruto i love you
Sensacional, simplesmente fantástico! Me emociono todas as vezes que vejo o vídeo. O que eles querem é apenas alguém para conversar... Esses seres maravilhosos apenas querem dar seu amor. Grande ideia, Parabéns!!
What an inspiring idea, God bless you guys and give you more strength!
Great hats off for the initiative
Fantastic work!
The most powerful thing in the world is the communication!
Faith in humanity restored. Or just not given up completetly but this is such an great idea and it warms my heart. :)
This is idea is absolutely brilliant. What an excellent way to not only connect different languages from all over the world but connect people of different ages and cultures. This is genius and very heartwarming.
This Just Warms My Heart.
Projeto simplesmente perfeito! Usar a tecnologia da maneira certa é isso! Parabéns CNA!
This is great. Whoever thought of this is a genius!
I can't see this vidio without tears.Old people have opportunity to help students leaning english and do it with pleasure. I like this vidio.
Can I cry and stuff cos I just did and stuff.
So did I...
yes you can, you are gay, so no problem
Cool manners, bro. I'm sad you were raised as an arrogant, intolerant and ignorant individual by your family. Grow up already.
SirKevinMartin unfortunately is this type of Brazilian which finishes with our image and reputação.please ignore , he does not represent my country .
Thiago Araujo Wow. You really said that, well, my bad but, you're nobody here.
What a great, yet simple, idea!
Congratulations, CNA!
As soon as the japanese kid said "you could stay at my home here" I knew it was all going to the shitter. "You're incredible" and "If you were here I'd give you a big hug" was just too much, that was when my eyes started sweating.
Omg this may be one of the greatest things I've seen! This should be available in every country! *teary eyes*
This should be fucking free an open to the whole fucking world because is a wonderful idea! As a mexican I understand very well english because of youtube videos but lack abismal amount of practice in pronuntiation. I find myself talking alone in english to practice a little but it's not the same. This is a huge idea!
***** The thing about omegle and chatroulette is that you encounter lots of naked/fapping guys. A few years ago it was still sorta normal, but nowadays there's just nothing else to see there, besides dicks.
Let me know if you need help.. We could Skype.. and also you could help me with Spanish
This is an initiative that everyone can do to make a difference in the world. Two thumbs up for you! Great job! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I wish we had something like this here in Spain. This is seriously wonderful.
Sensacional. Quem teve essa ideia tem meu respeito. Parabéns.
Great idea!
Well done CNA.
And for those who wants to know about the music in the background, that's "Ice Dance" from Danny Elfman. It was in the Edward Scissorshand OST.
BY Dany Elfman. dud! :p
One of the most brilliant brand efforts I've seen in a while. Beautiful!
am i smiling? i am smiling. :)
Ooohh can I cry? *-sobs-*
This too awesome~~!
This is great. I used to be a Hospice volunteer and simply met with elderly patients to talk with them and listen to their stories once a week. Nursing homes are really difficult to live in as the staff are exhausted or management is bad. Borden homes and retirement living places are a little bit easier on the elderly, but it still gets lonely. It's very rewarding and a great learning experience to volunteer to do this, I would highly recommend it to anyone who's willing to try it.
Vey splendid. Many touching. Such wow
Great project!! Congratulations CNA Brazil!
Parabéns CNA pela iniciativa. Muito Melhor do que "Professores Americanos 24 horas por dia"....if u know what i mean!
What an amazing idea! It made me cry! Congratulations, CNA!
Wait what? I want to teach that cutie some english too
Sebastian Pini Nahhh, I'll teach her 2 languages then
You're missing the point but..oh well, nevermind.
***** nooo... *sighs*
Wesley Siqueira Cara, é só uma brincadeira. Até o alemão entendeu e tu fica de frescura aí. Vai trabalhar, bicho.
Michael009
yesss :D
Wonderful idea! beautiful incentives. Love this project!
Muito bacana essa iniciativa! Do caralho mesmo!
I have to say, this is just amazing!!! Congrats to all who supported this fantastic idea!
Things get awkward later when one of the octogenarians says "You Mexicans sure are nice."
"Soooo...do you like tacos?"
ahahahahah
But they are Brazilians.....
What a wonderful idea! Congratulations!
The very cute girl in this video made me watch this.
Sinto muito orgulho de ter me formado nessa escola, e ainda mais pela iniciativa linda e brilhante, meus parabéns a todos os envolvidos. | I feel so proud of this school. And even more with this beautiful and brilliant initiative, congratulations to all involved.
Keep the good and amazing work up!
Ideia simplesmente foda e muito generosa!
It's an emotional way to learn English, and the main point which is "Experience Change" is way too good - very inspirational :)
I would love to see the full length videos...
I always recommend CNA to learn english. I studied for 3 years and half from 2002 to 2006, and I still remember many things and method they used to use! I enjoyed studying at CNA, now I am 25 years old and my first contact for speaking english was last month, I could speak and undestand people after years of studying.
And now CNA brings this great idea !
That's just beautiful.
Genial, nada melhor do que proporcionar aos jovens uma forma de praticar o inglês e aos idosos alguém para conversar. Projeto genial!
Andddd why am I crying? Lmfao I just love old people, they are the best!
+Sky Pie Same here!! I've seen this video twice I can't still control myself! This initiative is beautiful :')
Fantatisc Initiative! Congratulations for all the people involved!
"hey... so what are you wearing"
Thank you for speaking my mind.
"Me..? Oh dear, my brown pants and diapers....Wait, I don't have any brown pants...ok, It seems I'm wearing pants only" :D :D :D
These elders and youth have hearts of gold. seriously.
Fantastic initiative!
Parabéns FCB team! It was one of the best news of the month for me. Amazing, Touching ...
Wanna learn english ? play wow and you will learn to speak and curse in english faster then ever.

im not sure u will pass any tests with that "english
"
burned_ghost well, i've passed all my exams with that "english", also I've aced my college exam at English w/o ever have attended an English course
This is why I want to teach English as a foreign language to German students. This video is absolutely beautiful and never ceases to make me cry. This is the impact that I want to make in the world!
Is a win win situation, they need people to talk to and the kids need to improve their english, that should be a common program across the country (USA) among other countries too.
This is lovely. Thumbs up to the person who thought of this idea :)
That girl Julia is freakin' gorgeous
This is beautiful and brilliant! Kudos to everyone involved - this is what globalization should mean - helping each other.
Is there a site of it ? I really want it so i can talk with elders , they are beautiful and listen to you and care
One of the greatest ideas that I've ever seen! Congratulations!
"Only one? Oh you poor fella" lol
Being a brazilian born citizen, and a naturalized US citizen, it really touched me to watch this video. Great idea!
146 thumbs down for this video? I feel sorry for them because they have no love in their lives.
Absolutly amazing!! Well done CNA! How has nobody thought about this yet?
Edward Scissorhands soundtrack! ♥ ♥
That's such an amazing idea. I'm Canadian, but I'm living in Brazil for a while.
It's really incredible that you guys are trying to make elder's lives better!
That kid in the video speaks really well!
You guys are awesome.
2:15 , nice catch buddy , nice catch haha !
I'm from Vietnam and I have been studying in the U.S for a year. This video makes me want to call my parents right away. Thank you.
''You are my new granddaughter!'' que liiiiiindo :')
Woow That´s amazing really touching and an excellent teaching tool!!! Loved it.
can i use this application without being a CNA member, Or is there any application similar, Or for a best choice is there any fluent speaker who would make a hangout or skype call. Im advanced at english a programmer mathematician and a designer and I'm18 yeas old :) thank you
The greatest idea I've ever seen coming from an english school.
I'm proud of being a CNA student. Amazing! I would love to join.
Ola Luan! Eu sou dos Estados Unidos, mas o meu português não é muito bom. Se voce quiser, podemos falar. Eu quero aprender mais portugues. Tchau.
