The first time I watched this video was in June 2020. I wasn't able to understand what she was saying so I used Spanish subtitles. This talk was so beautiful that I decided to learn English. After almost 20 months I can watch it without English subtitles. Thanks, Lydia, because your speech opened my eyes to language learning. Next goal: Brazilian Portuguese.

Hi my name is Mariana, I am 18 years old and I believe that to learn a language you have to try, not give up and enjoy it because that is the best way to practice, until you find the right method and system with which you can learn in the fastest and most effective way. This video encourages us to get out of the routine and to try to learn.

My name is David. I´m 18 years old, and i´m Colombian. I think to learn you would enjoy all difficults and mistakes because that is the best form to practice, until you found the method and system appropiate. This video is a great teaching to leave behind the routine to learn

Remind yourself about the benefits of learning this language, That will motivate you. Read this quote out load every day ‘’If some professional in something remember he/she was beginner’’

Hello! My name is Julieta, I'm twenty six years old, I'm from Colombia. I found this video very appropriate since I am looking for how to learn Italian and English. I like to know that it is easy to learn beyond a book or a lecture, I learn more by listening and watching videos. It catches my attention and it is interesting to know what is common beyond the methods to learn a language, is the purpose of enjoying the learning process. Here I learned and to conclude is that we must identify what our method is and really what we like to learn another language.

Hello! My name is Sandry, I'm 17 years old, I'm from Colombia. What I learned from the video talk is that many times we underestimate ourselves and by doing this we leave aside learning new things, it is true when he said that we do not have to be geniuses to learn one or several languages ​​we just have to discover ways to enjoy the process of learning, we should not get carried away because it can be boring, on the contrary, each person can create their own method to learn and thus enjoy the experience while doing it, it can become something pleasurable. Although it is clearly about discipline, that there is a real desire to do it and not give up, this video gives me the reflection to start planning my time well and leave the fear and accept that if others can do it, I will do it. I will also be able to learn the languages ​​I want. Thank you.

I’m Brazilian and when I was 7 years old I had a dream, I dreamed that I was living in New York and I could speak English fluently, after that I started study English by myself.

I'm an American. The first week of German in college I fell in love with the language, and I had a dream that I was somewhere in Germany and was talking fluently in German with lots of people. I was so surprised that I could do this, and it was so much fun! Life is full of distractions, and at the time I was actually pursuing a degree in mathematics. I didn't become fluent in German at that time, and you might think that since I wasn't using German very much after I took those classes, I would lose the German I had learned. But because I was relatively young and was enthusiastic, I've actually retained the German I had learned. So now that I have more time, I'm essentially starting from where I left off. I've also become enamored with Spanish. So at some point, after I find I'm more fluent in conversing in German, I'll start seriously learning Spanish. Can a senior citizen become a polyglot? I think it's harder when you're older, but if you enjoy it, I don't see why not.

@Jabali Since I also speak some Spanish, find it very beautiful, and live in California, where a lot of Spanish is spoken, that will be the next language I focus on. Then since I already know some French, that will probably come next. I believe in becoming at least somewhat fluent, perhaps level B2, before starting another language. Mandarin is a really hard language for a native English-speaker. Let us hope that by the time I'm ready to undertake a 4th foreign language, there will be some places in China one can visit without having problems with air quality.

I am learning english. I started watching TED to study. There are days when I don't have confidence and give up on learning, but I learned that it's important to keep trying without giving up and that it's important to keep trying. I was encouraged by everyone's comments. thank you.

I loved this video, thank you very much for sharing it. It reminded me of those times when I didn't know nothing about English and after several attempts, I thought it would be impossible for me to learn it. Nowadays, seeing everything I've achieved, I'm glad I didn't pay attention to those bad thoughts that I had being an introvert person. Every day that passes I have more knowledge and I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who finds it complicated. And for all the people who see this comment, just keep working hard, set smart goals and most of all, enjoy the process, that one day you will be happy to see all that you have achieved.

I felt somehow identified with everythign she was saying, and even made me cry out of nowhere, I mean it made my eyes watery. I absolutely loved this conference! Also what you need to learn a new language successfully is DISCIPLINE. One of the many reasons why I decided to start learning languages is because I wanted to travel all around the world and meet new people, their culture, the way they live and some other interesting things that we can't even imagine. I hope I'll be back when I turn 20 and tell you what other languages I've learned and what I've done.

Hello Sarah. Nice to meet you. I love to learning languages too. I speak Indonesian (native language) and I am learning English, Japanese, Korean, and German. I don't have any friends who love to learning languages. I hope we can be friend.

I started learning English from scratch four years ago when I was 35. I got 6.0 score in IELTS one year later. I hope I will improve more now. I have two kids and work hard for my regular job, so it’s difficult to manage time for all of my tasks, but I don’t want to give up and don’t say complain anything until reaching my ideal English level. Taking time is the new motivation to learn English, because I put several thousands hours into English so far. If I gave up, it means it would waste time. My aspiration is to work and live abroad with my family. I know I will make it happen.

This talk is very motivating.

I hope this helps! -text/talk to any chatbot in target language(also helps if you're shy to talk to ppl) -Watch KZreadrs in target language -read in target language(books, children stories, news, poetry, quotes) -listen to music in target language -have conversation with yourself in target language -change phone language -watch cartoons in target language -watch tv series/ movies in target language -write stories in target language -write songs/poetry in target language -watch podcast in target language -think in target language -pretend to be the first humans to speak language (E.g. look at the clouds and pretend you gave it the name) -play games in target language -associated words with feelings -associate words with pictures in your head -watch daily conversations in target language on youtube -listen to songs in target language -apply target language to hobbies/interests(e.g workout videos in french, guided meditation in Spanish, art DIY with German instructions) -write journal in target language -use analogies -find interview/get to know me questions and answer in target language -exercise to videos in target language -watch tutorial videos of any kind in target language -use captions in target language if available. Good luck!!!

Hi, I'm Alejandra Guzmán from Colombia. I needed this video my whole life, it's amazing how people can learn another language by themselves.

So amazing. The way you say it, what you say is so different from the boring and complicated lessons at school. Learning a language turns out to be so much fun. Thank you a lot!!

I’m from Russia, and I learn finnish, because I want to move to Finland. At first I didn't understand why I couldn't remember words from a textbook. Then I started watching Finnish TV shows, listening to podcasts, doing duolingo and ”Hi, native!”. My progress became apparent within a month. I recommend this methods of learning the language to everyone!

my brother n law (from mexico) watched kung fu panda and other cartoons on vhs over and over with the spanish subtitles on. I've tryied this method and have thought about it a lot. I think after remembering what is being said (the meaning or context) during each scene, the foreign spoken language starts to come into focus. So it seems that hearing something in a foreign language over and over while first knowing it's meaning or message, the brain is better able to imprint it than in other methods. Maybe thats why its very easy to remember hello and goodbye and such in other languages, the message is well established before the sounds.

This video is great! I'm from Bogota, Colombia; I teach English and this is the video I always use when I have the first class with a new student. It's so inspiring!

I don’t say things like this very often- but this is life changing advice. From start to finish. I have been studying Russian for 4 years now consistently, and I am still stuck at an upper beginner level. What plagues me, is I feel like I should be much further along than I am so I have become afraid to make mistakes, or am hard on myself that I am not on a false timeline that I self imposed. I’ll throw all that out the window today and take this lady’s direction.

Summary: 1. Start speaking from Day 1. Through website/friends etc. 2. Everybody has different ways to learn. 3. Read/watch your favorite book/movie in that language. Also, youtube contents. 4. Goldlist method. 5. Create a system to learn. "I will practice friday and sat for 20 minutes. 6. Patience. 7. Have fun.

Thank you a lot, I have no words to tell you how grateful I feel because of your words, they've inspired me to keep going on learning languages. Spanish is my first language, I made my way through English by going over my own way, the enjoyable one, that's how I've been able to improve so much these two years, and thanks to that now I can say that I'm a billingual person. I discovered that I love learning languages, and looking information through other's mother tongue than mine when I realized, " oh I do actually speak English", I was shock ahahahah, then I decided to learn new languages that I would've wanted to learn before, but I hadn't started learning yet, so I've been learning French and Japanese for some months, but I got frustrated, and out of motivation sometimes because I pushed myself harder by going through the methods that I do not feel comfortable with, and I didn't think about taking the same route that I took to learn English, now you've reminded me that I can do the same with them, and all the languages ahead of them, my inspiration has gotten stronger now, :) thank you so much. I feel so content now that I've cleared my mind thank to your message, I hope the best for you. :')))))).

Hi, i'm Jeimmy from Colombia, this video inspired me to learn a new language, but I need motivation for this, I will be thinking to do that in the future when I can travel with my money, I admire polyglots, they are so disciplined in their proccess (this is the most important to learn another language without classes).

I can't agree more. I am a Chinese, and when I was in high school, my passion on learning a language was suppressed. Everybody said I am good at English but I failed in the college entrance exam by getting my lowest points in my study period. However, when I went to college, I was free to study in anyway I like, and those passion came back to me. I am now one of the top students in learning English in my major.

Hello!! My name is Jose Guerra, I am from Colombia of the city Bogota. The video is actually very interesting, it allows us to identify the different methods used to learn a new language. I found the video very instructive.

I am from Bogota Colombia, my name is Joan Sebastian Hurtado Castillo, and I love the video, it has very useful tools that I will use to improve my language learning, especially learning english.

Great talk. 🤗 I’m a native Spanish speaker from Guatemala. I spent almost 6 years of my childhood trying to learn English until I got frustrated and quit to the language-learning process. Two years ago I decided to give it a shot again but, this time I was going to do something I didn’t do back in my childhood. I started by learning basic grammar stuff and watching my favorite Netflix shows with subtitles in English. After two years I can hold a fluent conversation with English native speakers, I understand almost everything I hear, I don’t need subtitles anymore, I’m able to understand sarcasm and to make jokes using it. I know I make mistakes, but who doesn’t? I’m working one more year on my English hoping to finally reach real proficiency. Then I might learn French, Italian or German. Who knows? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hey Denver! There are several ways! The simplest is the app “HelloTalk” (with mixed results). Then, you can look on meetup.com or search Facebook for language exchange events and go check them out. Some give you a flag as you arrive, and polyglots will have multiple flags visible once you get there. Other than that, just being social, making friends, and being open to meeting as many foreigners as you can, will make a world of difference. Good luck!

Hi, my name is Sara, i'm from Colombia y think it is very important to know new techniques to be able to learn new languages since i consider that communication is essential in life and there is nothing better than being able to make yourself understood with the rest of the world.

The twist at the end made it clear, I even had goosebumps. Clearly, people should start putting in some extra effort instead of copying others strategies and yes, finding a way to enjoy and to feel satisfaction is the factor in this equation, me myself I was experiencing this hard time while speaking in English but by finding my own way I took that step forward in less than 6 months and here I am commenting and expressing my opinion. thanks for this beautiful and informative video.

I felt stuck. In 2020 since the pandemic started I decided to study English myself by listening to podcast in English and doing a effective method called “shadowing”. I found brilliant ways to improve and I started to love English. Although my English is not the best. I have improved a lot. And I wanna tell you that everything’s posible if you work hard and find a enjoyable way to study English. It can be as simple as watching your favorite tv show, recording yourself, and so on.

I took a course to practice and I try to do other things to improve. I watch TikTok in english everyday while I taking breakfast or lunch and I read the comments of people left in the videos. It's very fun. Also I try to play games in english to learn new vocabulary. It works to me. I have been make improves faster than I thought. Now, after to know the experience of Lydia with Friends, I have decided watch Malcolm In The Middle in english in my free time 🤭

My name is Tatiana Herrera, I am 18 years, I'm from Colombian. We really only think that learning a different language is difficult, almost impossible, but it's because we limit ourselves to exploring and doing it in a striking way; finding that method will make us love any type of language we want to learn.

enjoying the process of learning a new language is the main part that works for me, since like most adults who want to learn we work and therefore dedicating time to study is complicated. So when I find a fun activity that doesn't feel like I'm doing homework, it motivates me to dedicate at least 1 hour a day to it. Obviously grammar is very important in a language but I find that building the ability to understand and be understood is the first step in learning a language.

I'm from the Netherlands and the idea of creating a system is so smart. This way I'll make it an everyday routine to listen to podcasts for example.

I'm from the Philippines and my native dialect is Kapampangan. Gradually, I learned the national language which is Tagalog or Filipino mainly by watching television. By some happy happenstance, I became playmates with children next-door (house next-door was for lease back then) whose parent/s is/are nationals of foreign countries. These children only conversed in English and that was my first introduction to and the beginning of my fascination with an alien language that is English. To communicate effectively with them, I daily-read a thick old picture dictionary with sample sentences. Eventually, my English skills were honed as I began schooling esp. with the constant verbal intelligence tests administered to me until I graduated from high school. When I was ten, I heard a lovely Japanese song on the radio and I fell in love with the language. Later on, I fell in love with French. It was purely self-study with Japanese and French until I was given an opportunity later on in my adult life to live/work in Japan and France in which I was constrained to regularly converse in Japanese and French with nationals of these countries until I gradually became proficient in these languages. Another language I had mastered is Spanish. Presently, I'm stunted in my study of Greek and Bulgarian. As emphasised by the speaker, passion and joy are indeed essential in learning a new language (and other endeavours). And, as much as possible, become immersed in an environment wherein you have to regularly speak the foreign language of your choice. All the best in your journey towards learning a new language! 👍🌸

From Perú: Guillermo Espinoza Wow, This speech really blew my mind! To be honest, your explanation made me remember my journey through English. About the principles that you mention, I prefer ENJOYMENT. But I have not realized until today what happened to me when I studied English. But what is ENJOYMENT? I see it this way: You enjoy when you can listen to or sing the song's lyrics and emphasize your dance movements. Or reply to an email as quickly as you received it and sigh as you send it. When you read part of a book and find what you were looking for. You read a poem and meditate on what you read. When you grammatically construct effortlessly what you want to communicate or you would have done with another gramatical extructure. The fourth principle really captivated me: Patience must be accompanied with passion. Thank you, Lýdia Machová

I watched this video one year ago I wasn't able to understand anything so I watched with Portuguese subtitles today I am able to understand without subtitles thank u for the great video this video motivated me to learn English with fun.
