Research shows that the best way to learn a language is to have authentic experiences with it with Comprehensible Input.
Rather than boring grammar lessons, we provide free interesting listening experiences for learners of Spanish. By listening to our stories, culture explanations and games, you will get used to real Spanish as it's used in context, and develop a native-like intuition for the grammar and the vocabulary, together with a clear pronunciation. The videos try to be easy enough for a complete beginner to start picking up the language.
Comprehensible Input means that the videos try to use basic Spanish as much as possible and be easy enough for a complete beginner in the language to get the gist of the story and start picking up vocabulary. That way you'll get that i+1 necessary to make fast progress in the language.

    muchas gracias por tu chanel pablo! Soy australiano y recientemente, en los últimos meses, necesité una cirugía de hombro, así que no pude trabajar durante meses. Siempre en mi niñez quise hablar y compartir con otras personas en otro idioma el día después de esta cirugía comencé muchas horas todos los días de entrada comprensible lingq y con "dreaming spanish" y también con "spanish after hours". Mi objetivo diario son seis o siete horas de escucha y hago dos clases con un profesor de español. solo con 4-5 meses entiendo este episodio más o menos y honestamente sin lingq o tu chanel estoy seguro de que nunca alcanzaré el nivel que tengo ahora! gracias pablo, steve y laura de "spanish after hours" !!!!

    You ask such wonderful questions in your interviews, Shane. Fun to see your development in Spanish. In your most recent videos your accent has made leaps as well as your knowledge and growing mastery in every other way. So on to Russian for you. Thank you for sharing your journey. Spanish and German has been my enjoyment early in life and forty years later, I pick them up at a new level, starting two years ago. I spend hours a day since I can’t travel or work…but what is available on line today (and in books) is so rich. Being close to the end of life I no longer measure a destination by hours or skill…but by pure enjoyment in the myriad ways we can employ language and enjoy the world that speaks these languages. Thank you so much for your rich contribution.

    Only 2 months? That's quite amazing, and your native language is english? Wow, you shouldn't worry that much about not speaking, that'll come later when you listen to more and more vocabulary. You should try to speak sentences that you have certain confidence that they're right and little by little you can try more phrases, but only after you've had enough input.

    @@mariategus5184 That's very encouraging. I'm about 2 1/2 months into watching Dreaming Spanish. I did take a year of Spanish college 20+ years ago and did the occasional Duolingo, but considering how much I forgot from my Spanish classes and how little I think Duolingo helped, I consider my journey starting when I joined the DS website. I also can understand most of this conversation. And while Pablo recommends waiting, I've been reading quite a bit. I can read with about 90-95% comprehension graded-readers aimed at 3rd year Spanish students. I'm waiting for the moment I can understand native content. I hope I get there as quickly as you did.
