You are a great teacher and philosopher, no one can dare to such explain truthfully 👍👋👋
I revisit your channel to day and realized that you've uploaded another video a month ago. I understand that the way you argue about learning languages will make many people out there feel annoyed. They like to learn english through tips, tricks, methods but not principle. About me, I'm always waiting for your new videos. I love the way you approach language. Please don't stop sharing your knowledge! Thank you so much!
I have spent the past 3 month in watching these KZreadrs 3 to 4 hours daily in order to find a good way to learn English I just wasted my time and ended up by learning nothing, if only I used my time for reading and learning new words instead watching these nonsense I could definitely become much better. First thing I do is to unsubscribe those channels. You're the best teacher ever thank you so much
Hello Sir , You are the most well-knowledged person in Language field I have ever seen. I am very greateful that you spent your time explaining these stuff and clarifying what language actually is. Wish you health and happiness🌹💯
I am so grateful to you for the best useful book I ever read. It opened my mind to all that bullshit around language learning. One thing I am sorry I found it after 3 years of watching youtube, oh damn, but better late than never
You really had more affect in my language. I love your different vision , Many thanks
I watched this video during my 3 day trip to Hakone in Japan in the train and I was so impressed that I ordered your book "Virtually Native". It was amazing. It totally changed my mind about how to learn English efficiently and effectively. From now on, I study English the way you showed in your book. Thank you!
yeah, I got so fed up on those false promises over and over without telling me HOW to ACTUALLY do it.. I really like your point of view because you are non-native english speaker and yet your method of teaching is frank and direct without beating round the bush.
Really you are the best teacher on earth.
You are back¡¡¡¡¡ I really thought we would never be back. Thanks¡¡
Honestly speaking you are totally right in your analysis and the way you handle with this issue and the rhythm you use demonstrates that you a have a piece of deep knowledge about all your facts and the examples you evoke is great evidence of your honesty.
Great! Thanks a lot!
Thanks very much to you Vladimir🙏🏻
Thank you for your explanation, Sir. 🙏 Your video realizes me how wasting time I was for watching those kind of videos you're talking about. I agree with you about language is knowledge. After I recall again, you are absolutely right. It's easier for me to speak about topic that I'm familiar with. Alright! I'll focus on the topics that are interesting to me. Once again, thank you so much for the truth, Sir. ❤️ Wish you all the best.
Thank you for the wonderful insight on language learning.
great approach, you hit the nail on the head. Input first and then output pop-up automatically.

That's right.
Thank you for your Job. Your version of study based on real practice. I don't know why I all time don't like to learn English. I just wanted to use this language, now I know why I did that.
Thank you man.... In my whole life first time watch in this videos is such a memorable one........
A voice of sanity amidst the madness. I have never understood people who claim to teach a language who have never learnt a foreign language themselves (that they have actually had to use). Excellent content.
You speak really makes sense, now you already changed the way I am learning language. Thanks
Thank you so much you give me so much hope

Honorable sir, I'm from Bangladesh. I would like to say one thing that Your discussion about learning English is really fantastic and totally exception than other.Today I have realised the effective mathod of learning English. Thanks a lot sir
"I want to speak a language, but I don't really know about what..." That was my problem for some time. You are the first to clearly mention this. You really are not like the others.
Awesome sir you are incredibe .thank you once again.
Thank u so much!
Vladimir, i dont think If there is another ways to Learn a foreign langague. But i know what you said is true. I've never been in a school teaching and i Learn a lot reading some articles, biographies and things that i'm interest in. You make me unsubscribe all english teachers on KZread. I want to buy your book as soon as possible. Thank you much.
Thanks for ur video. I think ur video has helped me best!

Couldn't agree more. I wish the whole world to know what you sayin
Thank you.
Love you sir when I watch your vedios The prospective of learning will change And boost my language learning speed
Finally some truth, among all the charlatans on KZread; you have provided a wonderful overview for me. All of these fake polyglot youtubers have never been able to express these concepts. This video was well composed, said, and conveyed. All of the language learning KZreadrs are often 'snake oil salesmen' who need to keep the lie alive in order for a deluded sense of health, wealth, or prosperity.
Input before output is good formula and i got from you this formula. I applied it the way it is, it produced good result. Thanks MR .
My English skills have improved a lot since I bought your books. You are the best teacher on Earth!
Thanks a lot
I know your concept of learning English, thank you.
You are great teacher . It is not a compliment . It's a reality . I wish you success over success.
I like this video, sir
It seems to me that you bring a different, valuable approach to the language acquisiton. I agree with you especially on the futilility of seeking someone with whom you can practice your english; in the sense that the more you familarize yourself with a given content, the better you speak about it when it is neccesary to do so because it all starts in your brain, and making use of those words after you have gained enough understanding, even if you haven’t spoken on it much heretofore, is not actually that difficult. However, the issue with the deliberate studying of the words is much more convoluted and involved; to me, this comes down to personal preference and doesn’t have a one-size-fits-all solution, so one must experiment with both approaches her/himself and see what suits best to them.
Unbelievable. Simple and logical.
Amazing. It likes the way I learn English before watch your video. But I think if I have ever subscribe any KZread channels about English, i can not see you such as this
120% agree
Honestly I like his learning ways , maybe I didnt all understand he said but i think its interesting and useful for me. Thanks so much
Is it newVideo?I want for it a long time.Thanks.Thanks for your new video.I put your video to China video platform.
Sir I totally agree with what you are saying. But I have one question.We need to get knowledge to speak. But if we need to talk with person for day to day things like situational conversations how we learn to speak in English? Could you please advise? ? 🙏
Universities aquire such level in such language in order to able to study in'em which makes no sense. Because like you said you'll learn the language through the information and you will learn the information through the subject.
Suppose anyone with excellent communication English native speaker and does not have knowledge information Like anyone trivial in America without an educational level, a foreign person who has weaker English will come to him as a manager because he has better information than him Like the CEO of Google Pepsi Microsoft are Indian So, guys Vladimir is correct. Language is the information focused on information and English will come with it
Where's Vladimir? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 I need his videos
Very nice
you are great
I agree with this video 100%! i have been saying for years that ESL schools are a waste of time and money!
too good
you are a great teacher.
No one is here just like you who give us the original suggestions, everyone is just pretending and getting us the greed so that they can earn from us. Make more videos about these topics, I have been subscribing you're channel for 3 years. Thanks a lot for your valuable content sir.🙏🙏😊😊😊👌👌 From India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
Language teacher use language to teach the language, doesn't make sense. I got what you mean. I remember when how i meet someone can't speak, she talk with body language to me. Language is knowledge. Language=knowledge. If i have no knowledge= no language. I considered that i've no passion to english again like chilhood because today I dont know for what i learn english. When childhood i want learn about song 'i have a dream by westlife' in english. Thank you. You make me considered about that.
Hi teacher how long it will take me to master English I mean by reading???
Ooooh nooo . It is perfectly true. You say truth you say right😝😝😝😝
This guy knows his shit .
Vladimir, what's the point of these crappy Hollywood movies you keep plugging? I know any exposure to the target is usually a good thing except for U tube language teaching podcasts. If one doesn't want to treat learning the target language as an academic subject, then how does the learner go about acquiring the target language? First of all, you must stop using your native language on a daily basis and try to live through the target language as must as possible in your daily life, this can be easier said than done! But the point I am trying to make is, how should one be an active independent learner? Not to be too dependent on the mass media and the internet which can be overpowering for the beginner. For one to be able to enjoy their language journey. We have to leave out movies for the beginner in my opinion. Thank you for such a stimulating podcast and letting us know your thoughts about language acquisition. Many thanks Patrick
I think you just explained why I am so frustrated at learning foreign languages. I learned English because I was geniunely interested in topics presented only in English (e.g. Hollywood movies, American/English culture). I do not learn a language to communicate with others (I am an introvert) or better my career prospects. I have been ttrying to learn Dutch and French for practical reasons. With French it's a bit better because there are some things about French culture that I am interested in, but with Dutch it's really difficult. The Dutch culture really has nothing for me. It sounds silly to me and I feel like an idiot speaking it (Sorry Dutch people I mean no offense). How would you advise me? I also do not learn languages because they sound "beautiful". I think how a language sounds depends entirely on the speaker, not the language itself.
I need the knowledge to understand you talking this idea in English,...
Okay what about someone whom has mastered another language using your book? And then they want to do Grammer explanations because they make it a lot more clearer then others
Language is a surjective map onto reality. For every concept in reality, there exists language that describes it. The converse is clearly false. (eg - flying pink elephants with mouse ears)
Why did I have to translate "compelling" to understand what that word means? That meaning did'nt come from nothing.
what happened with vladimir is he right
👍🤝🙏🎄
O just watched your last video on the absurdity called english teaching
I agree with your opinion but at the same time, you are qualified to teach your native language rather than English.
I see madness : )
This thesis 'language is knowledge' is somewhat flawed. To get knowledge you need to be able to communicate. You can gather as much of it as you want in a language you know, but if it can't be communicated between people it's dead in the water. And this notion that you just set out on a path to acquire knowledge through the chosen medium and it develops, is fantasy island thought. It's just another example of the never-ending conveyor belt of language 'gurus' who think they've cracked the code for learning languages. 'Be specific regarding things you want to talk about', yet 'make as many examples of things you want to talk about'? So practically everything, just like you would in your native language? That rather brings us back to square one doesn't it? The patterns and content for 'talking about' things, aside from topic-specific words, are all the same. As an adult learner these things won't just come to you on a plate through exposure/osmosis just on the back of desiring to talk about a topic and trying to pursue it through that language medium. Knowledge is not tied to any language. Thought is not language, language is a means of communicating thought, it's the other way around. Sure enough it's a great idea to copy the vocabulary and patterns functional speakers use, but that itself is no guarantee that the information is correct or if the language makes sense.
