I've been trying to get Sharon to come on the channel for over a year guys. She is literally responsible for my Spanish level thus far. She has taught me so much! She was my first tutor and I have been taking classes with her for two years. Please check her out on iTalki if you're looking for a quality tutor that will help you along the way in your Spanish journey. Please tell her that I sent you! Thanks Sharon, you're the best! Estuve tratando de que Sharon viniera al canal durante más de un año, muchachos. Ella es literalmente responsable de mi nivel de español hasta ahora. ¡Me ha enseñado tanto! Fue mi primera tutora y llevo dos años tomando clases con ella. Échale un vistazo en iTalki si estás buscando un tutor de calidad que te ayude a lo largo del camino en tu viaje por el español. ¡Por favor dile que te envié! Gracias Sharon, eres la mejor!
The song I love when I look into they eyes of a women telling me some point of ussge or grammar is Now that I have found love what am I going to do with it. Long ago, back in the wild wild west internet I feel in love with a Mexicana named. Nan Every guy in the chat Room was in love with her. Then one day a girl from my home town came into the chat room. I asked her why she was in a Spanish chat room. She asked why was I there. We started speaking Português. Nan was happy as were The other Spanish speakers. I asked the girl from town are we related? Because you look just like my sister. I showed everyone a photo of my sister. They were shocked. I was happy because we were not related. I asked her if we could marry so that I could give my mother the gift of her life time. Her baby a live again. My mother was so touched when she saw her daughter again. It gave my mother a chance to die first so her first born child could live.
I’m in Sandy Springs, and was inspired by your videos after my first trip to Mexico two weeks ago. I’m following the steps you’ve detailed on your channel. Thinking about recording my progress and posting a video in a year. Thanks so much for the help - you’ve saved me at least month of research.
@@MikeBen Perdona mi alias en RUclips 😂 I know you’re busy and don’t expect you to - But if you’d ever like to meet and grab a bite DM me. I think we’d get along great. Trying to get my fiancée to learn with me!
I have finally joined italki and was looking forward to scheduling a lesson with Sharon. Sadly, she is not currently accepting new students. Fortunately, there are many other great tutors available, but I will keep my. eyes open to see if Sharon changes her status.
Hopefully she has a change of heart, she told me about her cutting back on classes. Just let me know because I know other great tutors on Italki as well
@@MikeBen Thanks Mike! I am definitely interested in recommendations. So far I have had lessons with Juan who is featured in at least one of your videos, and a young lady named Alejandra. There are so many instructors to choose from that it is hard to know who is great and who is merely good. Thanks.
wow Guau,,,, im so so inspired i love this interview .....also i understood alot of it ,Its mi (meta) to keep watching your videos and tell you one day, mike ok i can understand all that was said..... by the way you sound like you been specking Spanish forever ,,, great job to Sharon i will have to book a class with you one day Thank you Mike
Thank you como siempre Francés. Sharon literally taught me Spanish from my first month so she’s highly recommended and I’m glad that you are understanding a lot more now. Sigue adelante!
I decided to reintroduce myself and learn Spanish more seriously b/c of you. I'm currently learning Russia (giving me a headache lol), but want to follow your steps. Spanish is an important and more widely spoken language.
Agreed, it’s very widely spoken. Good luck with your Russian and hopefully these videos can serve as a resource once you return to your Spanish studies.
Now I’m starting to realize what kept you motivated to learn Spanish 😂 I did a quick look for colombian teachers in Italki and she’s like 1 of only 4 black women out of the hundreds of teachers in that category. i see what you did there 😂
Muy bueno el video y considero que hablas muy bien español y bastante rápido el proceso en el cual lo has aprendido. En mi caso, yo estoy luchando por adquirir inglés y llevo más de cuatro años dedicado a ello, pero no tengo los avances tan grandes que has tenido. Todos somos diferentes y no necesariamente cosas que te funcionaron a ti, me pueden funcionar a mi. Pero muchas felicidades por lo que has hecho y si te motiva aprender otros idiomas, ya tienes el camino para lograrlo. Un saludo.
Hey mike how early into the language would you recommend an italki lesson? I am super new to Spanish, but I want to do it properly and not just be another person with a duo lingo streak. Would you recommend studying for a while first or just diving straight into conversation even when u can’t speak anything lol? Thanks 🙏
Check out my video titled “5 Mistakes I made Learning Spanish”. That will help a lot, I would recommend classes/speaking once you have an ability to understand 20-30% of basic spoken Spanish. From there it’s a positive snowball effect!
She unfortunately isn't teaching on italki anymore and I don't think she will return. I will let her know that people are still looking for her though! Some of my other tutors are still there.
This is motivating me to keep learning. I’m about a week in and I listen, study, and practice Spanish daily. I’m currently reading madrigals magic key to Spanish book. Do you recommend I start taking Italki lessons after I finish the book? And also should I aim to memorize/understand every rule in the book? (I don’t mean cram the words but like should I cram the rules). Once again, awesome channel!
Those are great questions. If you retain 60-70% of what you learn In each chapter I’d say you’re doing well. All of that stuff is so common that you will see/hear/read them again. Also once you understand 20-30% of what you hear while listening I would start taking classes on italki. Sigue adelante!
Please do the video on how to train our ears and how to learn vocab effectively!!! if our ears are able to hear and comprehend what people are saying and we know enough vocab we will be able to conversate
Lol, you will be able to understand everything soon as you continue to study. We discussed why I chose her as a teacher, our differing opinions on our first class lol, how I progressed over time, our experience in Bogota when she and her friends showed me around, etc. Hopefully this helps!
Yes I worked with her when I was only a month into learning Spanish and I’ve been with her ever since. She is completely bilingual English/Spanish and she speaks Portuguese a little as well.
I love Sharon! I have started lessons with her because of you!
She's the best!
What is her name on Italkie?

This conversation is a lesson in itself. Thanks to both. Will be using this to practice my listening skills.
Im glad this helps!
Qué linda es Sharon!!
Si es muy buena persona y me ayudó un montón, me enseño español desde zero!
I love your videos, especially all the interviews! Also, I loved your question at 13:32 LOL!
Glad you like them! Soy el favorito!

Sharon! La mejor profesora! 🫶
Es verdad!
Geee man, here you speak Spanish so fluently even without translating in your head, you just glide greatly in the time tenses and the rothic Rs
Mil gracias!
sobrina que Dios te siga Bendiciendo en todo lo que hagas
Ella está haciendo el trabajo de dios, me ha ayudado tanto!
Que chica tan bella. Me gusta como habla ella 🥰🥰🥰
Me encanta el acento colombiano también. Ellos suenan suavecito cuando hablan.
Now I’m starting to realize what kept you motivated to learn Spanish 😂 I did a quick look for colombian teachers in Italki and she’s like 1 of only 4 black women out of the hundreds of teachers in that category. i see what you did there 😂
The familiarity never hurts lol
Liliana on iTalki is insanely gifted as a teacher. Check her out. She has a youtube page as well.
@@christophermichael5764 I don’t think she teaches anymore
Great video Mike! Can you post the link to her page on italki. I’m interested in have some lessons with her.
She is off of iTalki right now. When she returns I will most definitely post it.

I’m waiting for a few more months. Maybe 1 year into learning. Then I’ll get a tutor.
Hi Mike. Is Sharon still on iTalki or offering Spanish lessons through another platform? Muchas gracias!
She unfortunately isn't teaching on italki anymore and I don't think she will return. I will let her know that people are still looking for her though! Some of my other tutors are still there.
@@MikeBen ok thank you! ☺️

@@MikeBen de nada mi amigo siga echando ganas no te rajes
Can't find her on italkie, what's her handle?
She is working on another project for the next year so she’s unavailable for now…
Hey Whatsup bro. Long time follower. Is Sharon on italki?
No she has been off for a year now.
She is beautiful. As Saint Tommas once said Lord let me learn Spanish but not yet.
She's the best!
Nice
She's the best
Please do the video on how to train our ears and how to learn vocab effectively!!! if our ears are able to hear and comprehend what people are saying and we know enough vocab we will be able to conversate
Will do, I am actually editing it now so I hope it helps you all!
I can’t find her on italki !
Here she is:
www.italki.com/teacher/6518892
Let me know if this doesn’t work, it should though.
Ben brought out the rizz 😂 I'd learn Spanish just to talk with her too !
Smh lol, nada más que amigos papito
Haha I took lessons with her hey Sharon!
She’s the best!
I would love to understand this interview but my Spanish is not good enough. Is it possible to give us the “Cliff Notesl 😁
Lol, you will be able to understand everything soon as you continue to study. We discussed why I chose her as a teacher, our differing opinions on our first class lol, how I progressed over time, our experience in Bogota when she and her friends showed me around, etc. Hopefully this helps!
Did you work with her when you were a beginner? & Does she understand English well?
Yes I worked with her when I was only a month into learning Spanish and I’ve been with her ever since. She is completely bilingual English/Spanish and she speaks Portuguese a little as well.
@@MikeBen oh wow, so she must be really good lol
How long did it take u to get to this level of Spanish ?
This was about 2 years into speaking Spanish
@@MikeBen would u say that u were fluent at this point and u can understand without trouble
How many hours a week did you talk with her on average?
2 - 3 hours per week for the first year. 1 hour per week since then when a few breaks in between
Sharon > Licelot ??
Llevo más tiempo con Sharon pero las dos son muy chéveres!
No sé cómo decir thorough tampoco 🤔 especially not the way we use it
Yea words like that are tough to translate if there even is a translation…
quien es tu estudiante favorito lmaooo
Soy su favorito jaja. Quédate pendiente y van a ver...
Does she have instagram shes pretty good
Im not sure but she is a great tutor!
