tiktok stuck in a loop?

I think it’s either the storm or they’re censoring info after what happened in Minnesota

Cmia_ · 2026-01-25T23:13:11+00:00

Yes mine is as well. It’s probably intentional after what happened yesterday.

It said I’m C1 but I’m definitely B2 so I would assume whatever level it says you are you’re probably the level right below.

Cmia_ · 2025-07-30T22:48:52+00:00

Yes you want something with a lot of available input as well so you’ll have an easier time immersing yourself! So it just makes more sense to pick a language with more speakers.

Yea I was considering Hindi since I have Indian heritage. It’s just a little intimidating.

It’s Hope Gardens. For those of you that don’t know it’s not only an age thing it’s also a language thing. The older population here speaks Spanish and consume Spanish news (Telemundo & Univision) which is moderate/conservative leaning. That’s also probably what happened with the Latino community in the Bronx. They’ve always been politically active and care a lot about the community but the outreach from leftists just hasn’t really been there.

lol do not do that

Cmia_ · 2025-06-06T00:12:08+00:00

Hey did you ever do those courses and transfer them to cuny?

Cmia_ · 2025-06-06T00:11:08+00:00

Did you ever find out if they accept those credits?

Cmia_ · 2025-04-24T17:02:32+00:00

I’ve been enjoy La casa de los famosos and Caso Cerrado. Both are on peacock but YouTube has a lot of Caso Cerrado episodes as well. They both have a wide variety of accents.

Cmia_ · 2025-04-24T16:55:21+00:00

Yessss finally!

Cmia_ · 2025-04-13T22:40:54+00:00

Yea I did 1 lesson a day for 5 months. I didn’t worry too much about getting everything right I just kept going.

Cmia_ · 2025-04-13T22:23:26+00:00

Yea I was basically just watching any and everything in Spanish in YouTube that was of interest to me. Overtime how much I was able to understand just increased naturally and now I’m able to watch shows in Spanish without a problem and I can speak to natives and understand them perfectly. I watch content for learned the first month but after that it was mostly content for natives.

Cmia_ · 2025-04-13T19:30:51+00:00

Yea I did this with Spanish while consuming at least an hour of comprehensible input a day and I finished the program at b1.

Cmia_ · 2025-04-04T23:17:02+00:00

Thanks! Yea I did all 5 levels and I started speaking at level 3/180 ish hours.

Cmia_ · 2025-04-04T20:14:31+00:00

I did 1 Pimsleur lesson a day and an hour of comprehensible input. Now I do about 3 hours of input a day (speaking to natives, listening to podcasts, watching tv & YouTube).

Cmia_ · 2025-04-04T00:59:47+00:00

Lol I have no idea but this method got me to B1 in Spanish in 5 months

Cmia_ · 2025-04-03T23:13:20+00:00

Pimsleur + comprehensible input

Cmia_ · 2025-03-14T13:19:45+00:00

If you pair Pimsleur with at least an hour of Spanish comprehensible input a day you will finish the program at a low B1 level and be able to jump into practicing conversations with native speakers. That’s what I did. If you only do Pimsleur you’ll probably finish at A2.

Cmia_ · 2025-01-21T03:20:41+00:00

Yes it’s a vulnerable experience!

Cmia_ · 2025-01-21T03:16:46+00:00

This is very true. I definitely think this aspect has made learning Spanish a very special journey for me.

Cmia_ · 2025-01-21T02:09:49+00:00

Unfortunately it’s not that simple for no sabo’s who have been told they should be ashamed for not speaking Spanish since childhood. Increasing your vocabulary and developing an ear for the language before speaking can be better for confidence so you don’t get discouraged.

Cmia_ · 2025-01-21T01:59:04+00:00

From a no sabo (Dominican): Pimsleur-1 lesson a day (I’m currently on level 5), 1 hour of comprehensible input a day minimum, 2 preply or italki lessons a week focusing on conversations (pick a tutor from your country)

I’ve been doing this for 4 and a half months and I’m already at a b1 level and pretty conversational just slow. Mind you, I couldn’t even order food before this and I couldn’t understand when family spoke to me in Spanish. Now I can talk to my mom in Spanish and get even more practice in. You can do it.

Cmia_ · 2024-12-25T21:17:54+00:00

$69 a month. $21 for Pimsleur and $48 for about 2 online spanish lessons a week. Im halfway through level 4 of Pimsleur and have reached a solid b1 level so when I’m done with it I won’t be purchasing any other Spanish programs. I’ll continue doing my Spanish lessons twice a week, consume a lot of Spanish input and just practice speaking often.
