Totally agree with you. As I'm getting older I've found that my brain has never worked so well and it doesn't look like it slowing down. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
Transfert. I'm a personal trainer and I discovered, watching your videos, that our brain works exactly like our body. If you want run faster, doing push ups make you better in doing push ups, thus pushup has low transfert in running. Up Hills running, bouncing running, jumps can makes you to improve in running because are more related, they actually make you faster, they are a good transfert in running. Repetition makes you better in that specific skill, learning a list of words makes you better in memorizing things not speaking a language. Learning words in contest makes you understand situations, or things that you can reproduce later. Thanks Christian, you are the best teacher I ever had!
All the stuffs you have convincing us are actually consistent with everything I read from language researchers and what I've been through. You promote me to keep going on teaching by stories. Thank you Christian!
Amazing, hilarious, stunning. These are three new words that I have learned in the process of passing from intermediate to advanced. I am 52 and I will never give up. Greetings from Chile.
At 40 I have realized that I learn any subject, practical or theoretical better and faster than when I younger. I think that it's because my brain links all information it accumulated along the years to construct new ideas. I can see everything more clearly now. Now everything adds up. Now I learn with no effort.
Another analogy for(to?) the language learning plateau came to my mind: Physical fitness is improving very fast when you start exercising. Unfortunately the fitter you get, the harder you have to train to get any better, (which can reduce your motivation to keep at it, when you reach an intermediate level of fitness).
Wow, that's so interesting! I watched in a video that some scientist explain that we can learn whatever we want because our brain makes new connexions... there are no limits! and that made feel so excited because I want to learn so many things. And the information that you give about the intermediate plateau makes a lot of sense and gives me the courage to keep learning, little by little without feeling stuck. Thank you!
Christian I believe some people came to the world to change lifes, with your particular and special knowleges. People as you makes me believe again in the humanity. Marcos Pinho / São Paulo - Brasil.

The fact that you, as an adult, can learn a second or third language with relatively ease shows that your brain works as good as before. Aging has no impact at all. Great conclusions from those studies. Thanks for sharing them.
so many misinformation is spread around the world, what's makes them very hard to get rid off but not impossible, even though they have a good percentage of truth.
I'm not entirely sure the intermediate plateau actually exists. I think people want to get off at a " halfway station " so they can take a rest. To be honest I have been at a halfway point ( if it actually exists ) in spanish for years. But I didn't call it a plateau , I just had other things to do, like bringing up kids and going to work. Now I'm retired I have resumed in spanish and started italian too but I refuse to get stuck in some halfway station with no cafe to get a coffee 🙄 !
Hey, I watch your lessons often, which is good motivation. But with old age, the human brain deteriorates as evidenced by studies of the real brain post-mortem. In fact, starting from the very birth, the human brain begins to collapse, but at the same time form new connections, and when the first process begins to prevail over the second, marasmus and scolerosis occur. And the only chance to delay scolerosis is to form new connections, that is, to learn new things.
the word of the day is axiom , maybe obvious ,; is obvious that blind man can up to the sky and jump down " skydiving" because is blind , if you say is because of the an dog is hilarious
thank you for your joke, today then i drove my car i had thought that i must to use english language then i "wash bones" (i dont know how it translates to english, in russian it means - talk bad things about other people bad driving ) it will be helpful for my study, and i've done it!
Bestink info Christian is my role model for a teacher, being as supportive as he is. Could you learn as much english also being supportive to people making mistakes in traffic?.
@@Johan-vk5yd where did he say that, I think joke about blind people is very rude, and nobody hear my shouting about other people in traffic, except myself
Which is the source of your information? How old are the children? 5/6 year olds have a different selective approach from 8/9 year olds and so on and how old are the adults you’re talking about? 40/50 year olds have a different cognitive capacity from 50/60 and 70/80 year olds and so on
Hello Christian! Can you explain what thet mean? Take off those common clothes and come down looking like a princess! They have translated it like ... and get dress like a princess! Some gay said thet it must be calm down instead of come down.But it still sounds weird.And doesent explain.
You are joke is a little bit stupid, but it really helpful to know in enother situations. You joke is simply in kiddish, however it is what I'm need to start to watch video and right a comment. Thank you for this video.
Sorry, I don’t agree with learning styles being a myth. People who go to study architecture are already visual learners, and those who study music are auditory ones! ))) they have chosen their vocation because of their inner nature (at least most have).

Best video I had the opportunity to watch in a very long time. Many thanks for this gift, Christian.
May God help you, Christian. Please, continue your brilliant work. You're helping thousands of learners. 🙌
This video is a gem of wisdom. Thank you.
I agree, I believe that there are techniques and methods but the main think is to be constant in what you want to aproach.

You are great, teacher! Amazing your explanations!

Your explanation is great, thank you a lot
Thank you!!!

Great!!!! thanks a lot, you really transformed my teaching.
Thank you so much!!!!
You are very nice sir
I agree that when you are in the intermediate it seems that I don't learn more. it seems that I can't improve my speaking
That's because you already know enough! Now you just need PRACTICE!
Sir please tell us what grammar books we need to study to improve english
I got it now
What will it rest when you destroy all of the myths? Will it be truth? : )
I HOPE SO
