I'm upper intermediate so I had to put the video in 2x speed. The reason why I had to leave a comment is bc of what you said about listening being more important than speaking. I started learning Spanish with the pressure of speaking as soon as possible as a lot of teachers advise to do so, too. Didn't work for me. I've been learning for a year now and i could count in my fingers the number of times I spoke with natives (most of them didn't even last for 10 mins). I listened to this story twice the normal speed and understood it without any issues whatsoever. This is my advice to beginners. Don't get pressured of speaking in Spanish when you don't even have a good grasp of the language yet. It just won't work. COMPREHENSIBLE INPUT is the key (search what it means, you'll need it). Just like what maestro said in the beginning; hablar no sirve nada si no puedes entender lo que escuhas. Y'all are lucky to have found this channel. Hope I found it sooner. And good luck to our language learning journey!🎉❤
My teacher also told me too, speaking speaking and to memorize the conjugation which makes it hard for us. I wanted to learn but I don't want to memorize it, I am more of understanding it. When I tried auditiva test, I had a hard time and so my compañeros.
I thought the video was slow, read your comment, popped into settings and realised I had it at 1.25 speed. Feeling good that that seemed slow to me hehe
I've been studying since March, completed half of Duolingo, all of Babbel, and took 4 years of it in highschool. I only understood part of it like boys, small, garden, and the rest from photos. I'm struggling hard with this, and cannot relate to people pick it up at all. I've spent hours studying everyday recently and haven't given up, but it's probably the task with the most effort and least reward that I have ever taken part in. Kudos to those who do it.
Started learning Spanish back in May 2022. One year ago I would’ve struggled to understand this. Today, I can listen at 2x speed and understand 99%. If you feel stuck, keep it up. Never stop listening to Spanish. It’s worth it.
I just found your channel. I am a beginner and am struggling with comprehension. I understand written better then listening. These videos are helping tremendously.
El método que usas es fenomenal. Tomé tu consejo y escribí todas las palabras exactamente. Tardé dos horas de escribirlo y el escrito extiende por cuatro páginas. ¡Que excelente ejercicio! ¡Danos más!
Gracias! Gracias! Vielen Dank für dieses hervorragende VIDEO. Ihre Sprache ist sehr schön, gut verständlich (für mich bei Tempo 0.75), eine sympathische Stimme. Die Bilder sind eine schöne Ergänzung des Textes. Es macht Spass, mit Ihrem VIDEO zu lernen. Mit besten Grüssen von einem bald 84-jährigen leidenschaftlichen Polyglott.
Thank you very much for what you do! I started my Spanish classes like a month ago. The audios in my student book are extremely boring and most of youtube videos are yet way too complicated for me. This audio was perfect for the training! Many many many kudos
I could understand almost all of it. I first slowed down the speed because I couldnt keep up to write. But then I picked up the speed and just kept rewinding until I got it. Ive been working on Spanish for years aprendiendo en la calle cuando viajando. Man did my ego think I knew a bunch! But every time I return to Latin America I realize how much I don't know. Particularly with comprehension. I'm at an intermediate level and can speak enough to express damn near anything I want to say. But comprehending, especially fast spanish, is still suuuuuper tough! And more and more am I realizing suuuuuuper important. When I'm travelling in places with no English(which I always aim for) I always say immediately when I can't understand: Por favor hablas más despacio conmigo, mi espanol no es muy bueno, pero estoy tratando de aprender. I do it with a smile and I have a good attitude. And I have a good time. More often than not, native speakers are helpful and patient and I learn a lot in the immersion itself. I always keep a notebook with me and write down many of things I didn't know how to say or that I didn't understand but managed to figure out... I study it later... Just have fun with it and be patient with your self! Thanks so much Spanish input for this channel I just discovered. Ive explored many and yours is one of my fast favorites that I immediately subscribed to. :)
Just finished transcribing and correcting. WHAT a journey. At about the six week mark, I know that this exercise has increased my learning exponentially, and I'm eager for the next story about the mysterious woman (?)...and of course, the quiz for this one. Thank you for this channel. It's going to be my home base for acquiring/learning Spanish. EDIT: two months later, going through this a second time and my errors are cut in half, so far. I've transcribed and checked el primo parte y el segundo parte. Now my brain is all Spanished out for a while.
1.5+ year of practice here, my Spanish reading skill is fairly high in the intermediate level where I don't need much English translation in the story, but I am struggling with listen comprehsion. This video humbles me and I couldn't get a grasp of the words that I understand in reading but not listening. This tells me I need to listen way more than reading and speaking.. Your concept is so on point! In real life, the learner should be doing most of the listening for conversational or such
First, this video alone has drastically improved my vocabulary and ability to have conversations in spanish. Iv recently been listening to this video and the mysterious woman through at 2x speed, then 1.75, and so on down to normal and then writing out what i hear and it has helped so much! Keep the videos coming! Would love more situation based stories like at a restaurant, barbershop or clothing store
I have been learning spanish on and off for years in my spare time for fun, and I'm so surprised by how much I understand! It does help that my main language is French I guess 😅 but this is amazing, gracias por el video y la historia hermosa.
Le escribo desde Ucrania en ruso. За окном пятый раз воет сирена воздушной тревоги, за окном лежит снег, и дует ветер, но рассказ с прекрасными иллюстрациями не просто поднимает настроение - дает надежду, а ваш профессионально изложенный материал, в котором все структурировано, кратко и четко, дополненный жестами, вдохновляет. Огромное спасибо, рада, что нашла вас - я ваша ученица и подписчица.
Two places where I mis-heard things: 1. "un pájaro cantar en su jardín" - I heard "eso" instead of "en su". The "n" sound is so faint to me. 2. "Un cambio de actitud" - I could barely hear the "c" in "actitud", so I misspelled it as "atitud". These exercises are just what I need. ¡Muchas gracias!
I am loving these stories! I wish there was a way to separate the English and Spanish subtitles. You can’t turn on one without the other, at least not on mobile device. Anyways I just cover the English with a flash card… this channel is awesome! And I will continue to implement this transcription method throughout my language-learning journey.
You just got a new sub and mostly for the reason that you teach with the most common words, meaning you are teaching pretty much only what is going to help us, great teacher thank you and please do make more videos like that.
I cannot tell you how overjoyed I am to find your channel! I have been struggling to find an appropriate Spanish lesson for when I am ready to go to sleep. I can tell this will be perfect and help me so much. I will tell everyone I know trying to learn, thanks!
Thank you So much for your helpful hints I am new to learning I never found a way to Actually understand and learn Spanish until Now. Thank you I will try as you say .
I am so grateful for this channel. My Spanish listening has improved so much ever since I stumbled upon this. I think mostly because your histories and stories are very interesting and because I'm engaged, I learn and retain more. Please keep it up! Muchas gracias!!
creo que lo que estás haciendo con este canal, lo que en el que te estás concentrando es algo genial, verdaderamente. Pero creo que es muy importante que todos los estudiantes de español sepan que necesitan mucho más que cinco mil palabras, al menos de forma pasiva, si quieren ser capaz de entender contenido nativo sin subtítulos, leer novelas Etc. Mi punto es aún cuando es verdad que son palabras más importantes y comunes no hay palabras inútiles. Espero que tu canal siga creciendo!
Been doing a part of this story each week in between classes and it’s been crazy seeing my progress in understanding spoken Spanish! Keeping your mistakes and notes written down helps you visually see the progress you are making. ¡Muchas gracias por estos videos maestro!
Thanks a lot for this! SO good for training my very bad listening skill. I can do pretty fine when writing and reading spanish, but listening is a whole different thing...
Gracias por tu ayuda en crear un canal muy interesante y util. Disfruto mucho mi premier oportunidad de escribir una historia tuya en espanol sobre el gigante. Sigues asi por favor.
Genial, es la primera vez que hago este tipo de ejercicio, y me gusta mucho. La mayoria de mis errores son los acentos, no tengo ninguna referencia de donde ponerlos. Muchas gracias, eres un gran maestro.
I love these stories and love the subtitles you have. They are very fun to read and listen two. Is this how I found your channel. If you just shared stories I think that would be awesome!
thank you so much for doing this video also.hopefully youhave more. i just finished this one and did pretty good. i liked how you used aun alot instead of todavia which i am more used to..Besides this one and Mysterious woman, is there another one? thanks again. saludos de Chicago.
In the beginning, i was really struggling with this story. Im getting better at it, however, im still on lesson 1 trying to absorb more into my brain. Ive turned off all subtitles to increase my listening
"llevarse (bien) con": To get along with. Literally, "to carry yourself (well) with" "llevarse a": To take (someone) away. Literally, "to carry yourself to"
Do you think there's an optimal combination of extensive listening/watching comprehensible input and this intensive method? I've made a lot of progress in my comprehension by solely listening, but I recognise that I do miss some details. By devoting time to extensive listening you cover more content but will miss some detail. What sort of mix in terms of time would you recommend?
Hi! This exercise requires lots of energy, but you'll a lot more out of it than from "just listening". I've only done this for hours a day when I've been preparing for an exam, learning minimal pairs of a language or when I want to get my ears more attuned to a particular TV show. The rest of the time I "just listen". So IMHO, you should be doing more extensive than intensive listening. Just don't fool yourself into thinking that "background listening" while you do other things is nearly as effective as sitting down and paying attention.
excelente! cómo utilizar los subtítulos... activa los subtítulos. Escucha las palabras sin mirar los subtítulos, salvo periódicamente cuando sea necesario. ¿qué te parece?
Soy esnob de verdad. Solo quiero escuchar el acento castellano de España PERO soy estadounidense y me cuesta mucho buscar y hallar españoles y canales de sí. Por eso, le doy las gracias por este canal y la voz clara y precisa de lo cual a alguien pueda aprender. Me encanta el camino que nos exponga y LA VERDAD que nos haya dicho. Sí, acuerda a la RAE hay 90.000 palabras españolas PERO cuando nos da cuenta que estas son infinitivos solas, hay más de 1.000.000 palabras en el español. El punto es dar la información y los permite decidir los estudiantes cuantas palabras quisieran adoptar. Lo odios los sitios donde el profe dice «solo se necesita los 250 palabras más comunas». Sí, si quieres sonar como payaso o niño.
¡Hola! Input is just one part of what you need. You also need to study phonetics, phonology, grammar and train your ears with different dialects. It's impossible to give a time estimate because an hour of "just watch and listen" is not the same as an hour of "intensive, focused listening while transcribing".

Thanks! I actually have another one half-way written, "The Magic Flute". Wait for it in the next few weeks.
El maestro es genial, he spoke slowly for us to understand, he uses simple words for us to grasp every words he says. Bravo!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Hi! I have another one called Parque Histórico, but it's not really storytelling. More are coming! Stay tuned.
This was a great lesson. I will try listening to see how many words I can understand. The 5000 common words don't have English translations.
Hi! Yup, no English translations because each word has multiple meanings. But you can ask Bingchat for example sentences of each one.
Hasta luego I cannot wait until you do your next one

Sir, Please tell me.
Which one is correct for "get along with " llevarse con' or "llevarse a"?
What is the real meaning of both?
"llevarse (bien) con": To get along with. Literally, "to carry yourself (well) with"
"llevarse a": To take (someone) away. Literally, "to carry yourself to"
por favor haz mas
¡Seguro! Estoy trabajando en "La mujer misteriosa 2".

Do you think there's an optimal combination of extensive listening/watching comprehensible input and this intensive method? I've made a lot of progress in my comprehension by solely listening, but I recognise that I do miss some details. By devoting time to extensive listening you cover more content but will miss some detail. What sort of mix in terms of time would you recommend?
Hi! This exercise requires lots of energy, but you'll a lot more out of it than from "just listening". I've only done this for hours a day when I've been preparing for an exam, learning minimal pairs of a language or when I want to get my ears more attuned to a particular TV show. The rest of the time I "just listen". So IMHO, you should be doing more extensive than intensive listening. Just don't fool yourself into thinking that "background listening" while you do other things is nearly as effective as sitting down and paying attention.
is there a lesson plan for a beginner
Hi! Sure, it's here: ruclips.net/p/PLNDr0kknnWpaHflmKQn-l74ygZ0Zl77-t
excelente! cómo utilizar los subtítulos... activa los subtítulos. Escucha las palabras sin mirar los subtítulos, salvo periódicamente cuando sea necesario. ¿qué te parece?
¡Hola! Todo depende de cada persona. Si eres como yo y no puedes evitar mirar los subtítulos, hay que apagarlos.

¡Hola! Haz clic en el engranaje (cog wheel) y selecciona apagar los subtítulos.
Me encantan este video ,, i have a question is how much comprehensible inputs i need to reach intermediate level??
¡Hola! Input is just one part of what you need. You also need to study phonetics, phonology, grammar and train your ears with different dialects. It's impossible to give a time estimate because an hour of "just watch and listen" is not the same as an hour of "intensive, focused listening while transcribing".
Can anyone comment on what sort of Spanish accent is in this video? (Mexican, Peruvian, etc.?)
Hi! It's "Nowhere-ian". I try my best to speak in neutral Spanish in my videos.
buen hecho tío
