Italians and french are behind spain in english level, but what spaniards are very bad It is understanding english, cause in spanish we just have 5 vowel sounds and we can't diferenciate more sounds, ''A'' it is always and ''A'' sound, so we read english like we read spanish, so if we read ''cut'' we hope to heard an ''U'', "company" we spect to hear and "o", that It is why we are lost in a conversation, and everything that cames in english is dub in spanish, why we are this bad? because we first learn grammar, and we don't learn pronunciation cos It is very hard for us and we read as same as in spanish with just 5 vowel sounds, we learn english since we are 4 years old two hours per week, but we can't understand when we heard it but we are good reading and understanding text xD, BTW I am good understanding someone talking in english because I started wathing tv shows in Original Version since I was 16 years old, I cant say the same about my grammar hahaha

I have a friend with a very good English accent (British accent for that matter) and I myself used to think that it was weird for a Spaniard to speak like that. We didn't mock the guy or anything but we would cringe and we thought the dude was a try-hard xd. Anyways, what I mean is that I believe people grow from that and with time they actually start encouraging those speaking fluently and with a nice accent, but it is most defenitely still a problem in young teenagers (for the mockery you mentioned) and in older adults and the elderly who don't even speak a word in English because they were never taught.

We start learning English at school at the age of 3, but because each class has about 30 students (middle school and high school) we just don’t have the time to practice our speaking. Also, it’s really common that if you try to pronounce things correctly the rest of the kids will laugh at you, but if you’re really bad at English they will laugh as well 😅 I guess we all feel very insecure about our English because of that. And it sucks, when I’m alone at home I sometimes talk to myself in English in order to practice, describing the things that I’m doing or will do during the day, and my pronunciation it’s impecable, but for some reason when I’m carrying a conversation with someone else my Spanish accent shows up 🤪

Glad you liked it! Try the North or the Mediterranean coast next time, they're very different between themselves and from Madrid itself. Galicia and Asturias have quite the Celtic touch to themselves and you'd feel like it has sort of a southern Irish sense to it. Catalonia and the Valencian community are very in touch with their second tongue, Catalan, which might be interesting to see and hear to someone from other parts of Spain, let alone for an American. And if you felt like Madrid liked to party, I strongly recommend you to try Alicante, in Southern VC, or Andalusia, that can also definitely boast about having some of the oldest and most beautiful cities in Spain and Europe. I hope that when this awful pandemic is over and if you really desire to, for you to have the chance to explore my jewel of a country on a deeper level. Amazing video and cheers!

I’m so excited watching your videos. I’m coming as a teaching assistant in October and your videos are easing my anxiety. Plus as a younger man I spent a lot of time having crazy fun time in Spain. Now as older guy, I won’t be leaving clubs at sunrise, but I treasure those days. I hope to enjoy a long break from a stressful career, which I do love, and not only help with the educational system, but also integrate with the Spanish people. Maybe even take flamingo guitar lessons and study the language more. As a teaching assistant, I hope in can be exposed to the Spanish culture faster than if I just moved by myself for a year on my own.

Super interesting youtube video and perfect presentation and production. I've only been to Spain once but really enjoyed it! I can't wait to visit more cities and see more but I have to confess I get instantly shy when I try to speak foreign language phrases!! Lol

Tengo un amigo que vive en USA y dice que los estadounidenses en general sois muy ambiciosos y mas individualistas. En España somos mas conformistas con el trabajo. En general queremos vivir bien y relajados. No nos obsesionamos con ganar dinero únicamente y no solemos ser consumistas ni materialistas. Se valora mas el tener tiempo libre para disfrutar que tener mucho dinero. El lado malo que tiene esto es que hay pocos emprendedores, menos empresas y mas funcionarios (gente que trabaja para el estado). Esto empobrece al país y hace que haya mucho paro y poco trabajo de calidad. In comparison with other europe countries I think that our level of english is bad. We translate ALL the movies and series. This doesn't help the people to learn english. The spanish is also an important lenguage (not as important as english but much more than greek, sweedish or italian) and we have a lot of information in spanish on the internet.

I'm from Spain, I'm still in highschool (though it is my last year, thank God). We are taught English from a very young age, but we all also think that the English level of the average Spanish person is terrible, so I was really surprised with what you said in this video! The problem is that the school system focuses on teaching things like grammar rules, some vocabulary and a lot of things that aren't really practical instead of teaching students how to hold a conversation, that's why so many people (including myself) aren't confident when speaking English, specially older people who had it even worse when they were students. Anyway, I really liked the video! :)

I’ve had experience in Russian schools and German schools myself, and I’ve seen schools in France, China and South America. Many children develop hatred and anxiety towards English just because of the established methods. It’s a waste of time and torture the way English is being taught, well, everywhere. People spend 5 years on average and countless hours of their lives learning it but they don’t speak it afterwards! Seriously, “English grammar” is a scare word like “Hitler” for most of us and that’s because the material was being transmitted with no passion, no fun, no speaking the language during class. A language is a living thing but it’s being taught like an autopsy and most teachers make the experience as pleasant as a dissection of a corpse. Teaching and learning languages needs a paradigm shift.

Hi! I am an English teacher from Madrid, Spain. I agree with most of the points that you made, although it is not the same living in a city for years as visiting or staying for a period of time. Yes, we are loud and chaotic and we love to show affection. You can go party in Madrid every day until the next day and people love to have a beer in a cafeteria even on workdays. However, there are people who do not go out every day, of course. If they stare at you, it can be fine, but it can also mean that they want something else, so be careful with that. You can walk in the street at any time on your own and usually that is fine, but you should be alert. And Madrid and Barcelona are the busiest cities in Spain, so if you visit other cities, small towns or the islands, you will see the pace is much slower! When I spent one year in London, my cultural shock was that everyone was kind, but colder than in Spain. Love your video. Take care! :)

Ah! And most people under 30 speak good English (and we are quite shy to speak in English), but when my parents went to school, they studied French instead of English and that is why most elderly people don't know a lot of English. However, I think everyone would try to help you even if they don't speak your language and you don't speak Spanish, which I think is awesome and it doesn't happen in some countries.

En los EEUU hay algunas compañias (que no todas) que te piden que trabajes como robot. Cuando ya llegaste al 100% te piden 101%. Y sales con agotamiento absoluto. Y si inventas algo que automatiza y das 101%, te pedirán 102% para el siguiente periodo. Es la idea equivocada por su tradición naval. Se habla de "full speed" como si fuera el 100% y flank speed va por encima de eso. Lo que no saben es que, por ejemplo, un reactor nuclear de submarino puede dar el 100%, pero por encima de 50% se puede empezar a dañar. Entonces full speed es 50%. Cuando un capitán de submarino de la US Navy mira en una película que le dice al mecánico que le saque 101% al motor, el capitán le dirá que no. Un motor da cien por ciento, punto cero, exacto, y no más. Y encima se mira mal que tomes vacaciones aunque puedas ser acreedor a ellas. Supongo que a eso se refieren. En España no creo que sea distinto.

Definitely right about the staring in public spaces, especially in underground trains when there is no landscape to watch out the window. However, it is important to point out that much of the staring is completely absent-minded. We are not necessarily thinking about the person we are staring at; we may for the first couple of seconds, but then our thoughts may wander to a million other places while we keep staring at the same person. I lived in London for a year and I had to constantly check myself not to stare at people; I realised that it really p****ed some people off :D

We thought is was very orderly & clean, and it was odd to not see graffiti like we do here. A lot of what you said can definitely be said about Italy.
