    You must be the most empathic and understanding teacher out there. I am a teacher myself and I use--and share--your videos with all my students, especially the ones in intermediate levels. THANKS for your wonderful job. ❣

    This happens even in my native language. It is good to be aware of this as well.

    Every time my eldest daughter loses motivation at school (linguistic highschool!) I remind her that "school" and "learning" aren"t sinonyms and I tell her "Don't forget Christian's story and exemple!". Thank you teacher!

    Every time I'm watching videos in this channel, I'm asking yourself, why I can't speak fluently and convenient. Because I understand 95% of words from these videos without subtitles.

    The best way to remember words is context. I ❤dictionaries with added contexts in the definition of each word. When you don’t remember a word, go around it with context as Christian mentions. I do it often even in my native tongue. Don’t be ashamed of not knowing or remembering, it happens to all of us even native speakers.

  • This man is the best teacher, and we can see he is a great person: not only he wants to teach us, but he wants we learn too. Thanks, Christian.

    I really appreciate the whole video, but at 10:15 there is a powerful flash: "Remember: real communication happens in context, not in textbooks" Thank you very much!
  • It's so simple, because after all, we all do it very often in our native language. But still, it's a brilliant observation! Thanks a lot for these useful tips!
  • Отличный ролик, благодаря которому я буду учить английский ещё усерднее! 😊
