Be comfortable with your skills, and if you want to better them, then do so, but without the shame. : ) I had no Puerto Ricans or Dominicans by me, but I did have KZread, and google, so just know that all that you're trying to do is possible despite the circumstances.

Confidence and courage is your answer. The only route to confidence is practice, even if you feel nervous 200 times in a row. Truth is, that nervousness or hesitation never goes away 100%, it just gets reduced to "no big deal" after a while. You'll be pleasantly surprised as you continue, just how much your initiative and interest will be appreciated. People will light up, and take an interest in you. You'll likely find yourself having to limit or postpone a conversation at times, so you're not late for an appointment. You'll see, it'll be cool. As for those that may criticize or laugh ... again, no big deal. Very few native speakers will actually do that. If/when they do, most often they will let you know that they didn't intend any insult. Sometimes we may just sound funny because of our accent, or mispronunciation of a word, or even use a word that's considered inappropriate or vulgar in their country of birth. All the best to you in 2020 y Dios te bendiga. =)

I love it. I live in Japan and my level is beginner and I love speaking Japanese when I can. I also learn Spanish. You really have to put yourself out there.

Pro tip: If you have changed all your devices to Spanish and services (including Gmail, Chrome, KZread etc) and it is still suggesting you exclusively English content, use a VPN to change your IP to that of a Spanish speaking country. I found that was the only way that Google would get the message.

Thanks for the video, Rickie. This is exactly what I need to see. This is also one of the most fun videos so far. My written/reading Spanish is pretty good, but speaking/listening skills are lacking to say the least. I just got to get the nerve up to try to speak it.

And you have earned my appreciation. Thank you!!

Thanks for this video. You never described what orchata is. Could you do a video on some of your favorite things (i.e., foods, drinks, dances) from various cultures and explain what they are? In this video I enjoyed learning the different ways people may greet you in different cultures. Maybe you can do a video series on common idioms, flirty lines, insults, etc)

Love these ideas! I can make that happen. Thanks for watching. There are so many greetings that were not mentioned here it;s crazy. I'll share those with everyone. Horchata is a Mexican drink. (rice water, cinnamon, milk, water, and sugar.)

Oye hermano, tu castellano es asombroso. sigue asi...me encantan tus videos..soy un hablante nativo de castellano pero se que el castellano es diverso y siempre puedo aprender mas...y youre looking real fly real Miami no doubt and I'm completely with u on what u saying about clothes and things u wear man u could pay $60 for what you're wearing or $360 and who even cares I'm real frugal like that too when it comes to myself at least.

I'm actually Dominican and Venezuelan and I want to learn Dominican spanish not the neutral spanish you learn in school my parents tried to teach us growing up but of course you don't know what as a child what you know as an adult and so now I'm getting better just from being around my family and listening but again they speak so fast and I'm learning but your videos actually are more clear because they speak so choppy in my family, so just more everyday conversations with how to reply

I'm glad that my videos help you. Did you ever email me? I know you were talking about wanting to contact me. YOu can definitely be fluent if you use your fam as resources.

Rickie Walls is it the bilingual onr? And yes like just from watching your videos and you know trying to spend more time and my dad's house I'm picking it up but I will say I have learned more and I'm not even going to say it learns more I have retained more and learn more and more confidence just from looking at your videos so I would definitely love to do virtual classes with you and yes I am very flexible and definitely understand your schedule

It's all about growth my friend!

Hey my man speaks Spanish better than me! A fan from Colombia South America.

I'm lucky that I live near Lawrence Massachusetts and Methuen. There is a large Puerto Rican population and many Dominican people. 15 min and I can be working on my (currently terrible) Spanish.

I love you so much😭❤️
