I understand more than 90% of what you say, but I can't speak as fluently as I'd like. I watch your videos all the time and I feel like I'm a pro, but when it comes time to speak, I feel demotivated and down.

I'm a US native English speaker living in Los Angeles. I appreciate all that you're doing for people who are trying to master the English language. It's not an issue to have a slight accent in Russian or any other native language. Keep up you're good work. You are loved my many around the world. Have you eaten at Scoma's yet ?

Summary 1. Phonetic Aspect: how you pronounce words - Watch videos, take a course - Shadowing technique - Record and listen to yourself 2. Vocabulary - Learn 3-5 words a day max - Make sure to use these words in sentences (turn passive vocabulary into active vocabulary) - Learn phrases not just isolated words - Thinking time phrases: “Let me think…”, “I haven’t thought about that before…” (For when you forget words.) - “Could you repeat this please?”, “Sorry, I didn’t catch it.” (For when you don’t understand native speakers pick 1 or 2 and use them all the time) 3. Lexicon Gramatical: how you connect phrases into sentences - Be mindful of the time you’ll need to get comfortable with different grammar structures 4. Discourse - Monologues: topics-how do you talk about yourself, your career, your goals… (Speak to yourself, record yourself) -Dialogues: talk to Chat GPT I hope it helps! 😊

Marina....I studied in Russia as a foreign student, and when I arrived, I was only 17. I learned the Russian language, and it eventually became my mother tongue. Over the phone, no one could distinguish whether I was a foreigner or a native Russian speaker. Fast forward 24 years, and I now find myself in an English-speaking country. My problem is that, although I understand English well and can write decently, my speaking is not fluent. Even after 24 years, I sometimes subconsciously mix Russian words while speaking. Russian is something deeply rooted in my temporal lobe. I'm going to buy your book with the hope of gaining a good grasp of English language.

I just know you for the past 3 years and you're my lovely English teacher thank you marina

Always the best.... I don't even need subtitles for Marina's vdoes...... lingua marina never fails to treat, teach me in English❤

What an accent Wonderful voice Great teacher Thank you so much from lndia

The timing of this video couldn't have been better. Thank you Marina! ❤

Hi, marina lots of love from India❤.... The most vital thing I have learned in my English journey is that... The atmosphere we are being will decide how much faster we can catch up a language

Hello Marina, thank you for the video. Your videos have really helped me a lot. I use them to practice listening, and your accent is amazing.

I'm grateful for your effort to making these videos, to speak english is the most challenging for me, sometimes I'm getting frustrated when I'm trying to open my mouth and just can't talk and that makes me anxious, sad and I feel hopeless, everything is getting better when I watching your videos it gives me hope and faith and comfort to keep practising even in difficult times

Hii marina, I'm from Indonesia, I've been watching your videos since 3 years.. And I learned a lot from your videos, thanks so much

It's important to practice the language all the day. even if not for hours but atleast few minutes ...no matter whether you are correct or not....jus use the language all the possible ways...jus like how I'm using the comment section 😂😊

Thank you Marina I have been following you since 2018.

Hello my favourite person ❤ I have been followed you for the past 3years . I’m from Myanmar and thank you so much for your videos also your videos are the reason why I love to learn English and feel so confident when I’m speaking English.❤Thanks again and really want to attend your Intermediate class…😊

just came across your channel. You're english is very good and I barely notice an accent

Marina, Can you speak German so well? You are a quick learner. I have the same problem Marina as you said, I can understand your English so well, but cannot speak fluently like you. Marina as you said I have to practice one or two new English words daily and make sentences with them to speak English fluently. You are my best teacher Marina

Who is watching from India

thank you Marina I watched your video from Afghanistan, and I have learned more things from your teaching. again thank you for your help.

To be honest at the beginning when i listen to you i don't understand what you say because you speak fast but now i understand all of your speech,i feel happy about that ,thanks a lot teacher marina

Marina do you know what i love your videos carry on help us other who can't speak with this accent you've

Hi Marina Thank you for your amazing content I am almost at C1 level. I can read most of academic texts and my listening is good. When it comes to speaking, I am good most of the times, but occasionally I find myself not as fluent as a I want to be. I mean I am pretty fluent most of the times, but sometimes I cannot communicate very effectively. Sometimes, I need to practice what I want to say beforehand. I want to speak English like my native language. I took your Advanced to Proficiency course. It was amazing. However, I still want to improve my speaking skills. What can I do? Thank you again

I'm from Uzbekistan. I always watch your videos

Love From Uzbekistan ❤

I've mastered pronunciation but my main problem remains in grammar and vocabulary. I didn't understand why if I was able to recognise some words I couldn't use them properly in a sentence. Of course, that was because of passive vocabulary, I can recognise words and phrases but they're unavaible for my expressing skills. I hope I can acomplish my goal of become fluent this year and being able to score more than 100 in TOEFL.

I am a huge fan of your teaching method, Marina. Please make a video how to improve ielts listening skill.

Hi Marina, Greetings from Indonesia. I also experienced the same thing, being able to understand when I heard someone speak English, but stuttering when I tried to answer them 😅

Thankyou marina❤ your video so so so valuable to me for learn English. Always,It gives to me confidence. Love you..

Marina you give me the biggest motivation to lern english .Thank you a lot 😊😊😊

Oh, my northen Siberian Gods, nice to hear again from you, nice lady Marina, thank you so very much for another brilliant job for us everyone! Frankly, my very personal weaknesses of getting to know new people and practicing some sorta "true" fluent English are for couple decades still and still remain VERBS' construction lots of scary rules, lol Can't get my eyes over it for sOoo many years, damn it, lol 😂😅🎉 Cheers, Serge

Hi marina im from somali so i’ve been watching your vedio for the long time thank you i learn alot of you🎉❤

Hii.l am one of your regular viewer❤️. I'm from Bangladesh. I can speak in English. But in the case of spelling words I'm just bad.what I can do.😔

Thank you for the amazing study tips. I watched your video on tips for the Speaking section and it provided me with some really wonderful insights. I managed to score - 116/120 on my TOEFL with section-wise scores of - R30, L30, S29, W27. Thanks a lot!

Great explanation Teacher, congratulations!! I would like you to make a video explaining the words Used, Be used to and Get used to, where to use them in sentences

Thanks you marina from somalia 🇸🇴🥰

It's the same for me too. I understanc people who speak english but when it comes to speaking, I don't even know what to say. Even when I have something to say, I mess up what I wanted to say or say it not loud enough cause I'm embarrased or shy to speak. These days, I'm reading a book out loud so I can get used to speaking.

СПАСИБО БОЛЬШОЕ) ВЫ ТОП!

The way you teaching superb..❤

I took that course " Intermediate to Advanced " it is very helpful if you really want to break through. But practice is essential

Hello Marina, I really hope you're fine. My name's Thomas. I'm from Angola and, for sure, it's always a great pleasure watching your videos. Fortunately, I've got a strong American Accent and don't have any difficulties in terms of listening. I learned so much from your videos so far, thank you for everything.

Same problem...can't you help a bit more by providing quick steps??

Thank you 😊 from India 😊😊😊

I agree with you 100%! And thank you for making me aware of something important. I noticed what exact level I am at now, and what should I do next.

This is me Marina. I have been very frustrated because I lived in Uk since June last year and I’ve had 6 months of English school and now I m working at charity that I always feel like as silly and stupid. Sometimes they speak to me and I try to say something but I just don’t know how I can answer that. In the most of time is a simply sentence but just I ve stopped or speak words that don’t fit in the sentence. This is all, I hate English but I need it.
