    Thank you for watching! Remember, Knowledge is Power! (France is bacon) and "Come on! You can do it!!" and just like Neil in The Matrix, "there is no spoon", and finally, just write something, anything, including a poem in the comment section if you like ✍😃

      While I am listening to your podcast
      I am spelling a good forecast:
      If I write a line per day
      I'll be simply know the way
      to give language a big houl
      and give life to my old soul.
      😂 Thanks a lot for your precious contents teacher Luke
      Take care and carry on

    Hello, Luke. I'm Brazilian and I live in the city of Estância, in the state of Sergipe. I'm a retired English teacher and I started to get interested in the English language through the Beatles' songs in the sixties. I've been watching your podcasts on RUclips, and I've been improving my pronunciation. I can understand very well what you say. I'm grateful for your contribution to my improvement.

    This episode made me laugh a lot/ You’re always so fun, often teachers are not/ Every week you bring us a surprise/ over all benefits, so I recognize/ It’s you the one I want to show respect/ For all you gave us, for what we expect

    Hello, everyone! I’ve been listening to your podcast for a couple of years now, and I’m really grateful for all the work you do, Luke. Lately, I’ve been feeling down about my English skills for the reason that I ve been telling myself: I m not good enough! I stuck at the intermediate level and no longer see any progress, that is frustraiting. But after watching this episode I feel inspired! :) I am gonna start writting a diary )) Hurray! That is so spot on: Perfect is the enemy of good! It's true that the most important thing is not to give up and keep learning the language, even if you don't see immediate results. Guys who feel the same way I d love to tell you- hang in there! We will get there! )) I would to add one more thing: stop comparing yourself to others. Better compare yourself with your past self: a day ago, a month ago, or a year ago. P.S. Luke I am sorry to hear about that awkward accident at the bakery. I could only wish that native speakers were more tactful and understandable. Perhaps he wasnt in the mood )) hehe {Kristina from Russia, Sakhalin island}

    • @michiganian-girl
      @michiganian-girl Месяц назад +2

      I hear you, Christina! Same problem. After 20 years in the US, I still have a strong Russian accent. I don't think I'll ever speak like a native speaker, but I hope to at least improve my English a little. I'm 64 years old.

    • @ОльгаБутина-р1о
      @ОльгаБутина-р1о Месяц назад

      ​@@michiganian-girlHello. You say that you have a strong Russian accent, it's Ok. All people who are not natives, have their own accent. And what about American people, do they understand you? What is their attitude to foreigners? Do you have the same problem with misunderstanding as Luke has?

    • @KrissTomm
      @KrissTomm 18 дней назад +1

      @@michiganian-girl Hey)) I think an accent isn't a problem if people understand what you're saying and your speech is clear. Everyone has different goals when learning a language, but I believe accents are part of what makes us unique. They are interesting and show our backround! However, if your accent is very strong and it makes it hard for people to understand you, then it might be a good idea to work on your clarity of speech) Best of luck)

    Hi, Luke. Thank you so much! With your help, I scored 6.0 in my second IELTS test, especially for my listening section, you know, in my first IELTS test, I only got 4.5 in my listening part. Now, I am preparing for my third IELTS test, it is on October 31st. Good luck to me! Well, this will be my final IELTS test. They are so expensive and torturous. I think it's time to call it quits.

    Hi Luke! I watched the episode about your illness experience in Japón. It was wonderful. You are such a great story teller and also your thougths and the way you reflect about it sound close to any of us, in my opinion. I mean to those of us who have felt vulnerable in any way. Thanks for your sincerity and for being open and authentic. Cheers!

    Thank you, Luke. I have been watching your episodes for a couple of years. I enjoy every content you have provided and feel happy and good when listening to your episodes. I am from Syria, and my English was not as good as today. At that time, I felt depressed and hopeless that all the studying and consumption of English I did, did not appear to the surface. Today, I feel better about my English when I speak or express my opinion. Listening to your podcast is one of the things that has improved my English. As you said, keep moving, making little steps, and loving the things that you do, you will achieve that success at any point in your life and all the wonderful stuff will surprisingly reveal at the end. I compare my diaries written over two years, and I find how changes have been made to my English, it is all about practicing, studying hard, and not giving up.

    What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger
    Becoming an angel or a monster

    trying to write a poem
    feels a bit weird.
    But yes, I did it,
    I'm proud of me
    just listening and writing
    might be the key.
    The sky's now grey,
    but listening to you
    makes my day happy,
    and that's really true.😊

    I'm 40 and I finally stopped bothering that in English I sound like I'm 14 and started to leave comments if I have anything to say even if it's silly or obvious things.
    I agree that a little bit is way better than nothing but if you want to achieve a lot you have to work your ass out. No pain no gain, kind of 😄

    From 🟥⬜🟥🇵🇪 Hi Teacher Luke,
    Just want to express my sincere gratitude for your podcast...
    The penultimate podcast 903 was shocking, the way you describe it may seem that it was bearable, but the truth is that it must have been difficult for you. Feeling like a real stranger in a country where you still didn't have all the facilities. It is obvious that on the road of life, we walk in different directions, sometimes we suffer and sometimes we rejoice. What would have happened if...? Well, that's a big question that we will solve as we walk. Now you are there, sharing excellent content with all of us! 👋

    Thanks for this inspirational episode! I think perfecting oneself amounts to torturing oneself day in day out. It's not that we shouldn't seek perfection, it's just that we might postpone our journey towards perection for a while and focus on making ourselve understandable enough to be able to get across our thoughts.

    Assalam myself,
    This message is just for practicing my English. It might not be about anything specific, but it's important to me as a way to see my progress and stay motivated to improve. To be honest, English is not my native language; my mother tongue is Tamazight, and I also learned Arabic and French at school. Now, I am learning English on my own through digital platforms, especially RUclips. I listen to podcasts and watch many videos from teachers like Luke, Bob the Canadian, Edge Hogue, Steve Kaufmann, and many others. I am very proud of my English level and will continue to be so in the future. "Never give up and keep going" are my keys to success.
    Good luck to myself!

    I don't expect someone to read this really. It would be nice to have some feedback though. Yesterday I played this episode and motivated me to keep going. I was almost dead on my journey. Man I thought I would never be good at this. But I said just keep moving forward as the episode advises. So that's the reason I am writing this comment now. I will always look up to people that try to do a good job, not perfect but a good job. Thank you Luke and to everyone out there who does a good job, whatever your job is.

    It's autumn, and I'm feeling low on energy. However, after listening to you, I always get a positive boost. Thanks, Luke! :) I'll catch you in a chopper now.
