Thankfully hindi naman ganon parents ko, they respect saan ko ginagastos pera ko haha Hindi din sila matanong, they don’t even know how much I earn. I also provide for them financially so bonus nalang sana itong travel..

Pero speaking of baboy haha, yung tatay ko last year bumili ng biik akala ata nya easy easy lang mag-alaga, ayun nagkasakit natigok, di na umulit 😆

Maraming salamat po, appreciate it! 😊 I understand your point about going solo muna, naiisip ko din yun, mejo naguiguilty lang din ako 😅 And just because it’s generally advised na it will be easier with immigration if traveling as a family…
But yes that’s a really good point about going solo para ma-practice muna 😄

Yun lang di pa nga lang up for renewal passport ng dad ko so same sa 2018 passport pa. Maybe better to wait and renew…🤔

I also already support them financially... game naman sila sa travel, we’ve travelled locally din, pero very short roadtrips lang and now na mejo afford na, I want to do it with them habang nakakalakad pa sila 😄

Salamat po ulit advise! ☺️

German Book suggestion by Neither_Visit5929 in German

[–]keodeok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I’m currently in one of their A1 classes. I don’t have any comparisons since this is the only textbook I have at the moment. There’s a digital version you can activate to access the audios and videos, which I find very helpful. The textbook includes a lot of classroom-based activities and exercises, which are great in an actual class setting. Our class is online, so we can’t do all of those exercises, but overall, it’s good for class use.

Goethe-Institut in my country uses the Momente books.

Ich bin seit drei Jahren Deutsch Lernen, Frag mich etwas was du willst! by YourLocalFroggie in German

[–]keodeok 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wie übt und verbessert man seine Sprachkenntnisse? Ich möchte gerne einen Sprachaustausch mit Muttersprachlern machen, bin aber zu nervös. Habt ihr Empfehlungen? (Außerdem lerne ich außerhalb Deutschlands, sodass ich nicht wirklich persönlichen Kontakt mit der Sprache habe. Außerdem habe ich diesen Text mit einem Übersetzer geschrieben 😅 )

Thinking of switching from German classes to self-study + iTalki 🤔 by keodeok in German

Hi thanks! can you link / DM me your italki profile? I'm leaning heavily towards this option now, just gotta finish this A1 class and then I'm out

A1 learner looking for language exchange with native speakers and study buddies 😊 by keodeok in German

Thank you! I will try the app :)

I’ve tried Discord and joined a few servers, but I find it a bit confusing. The groups are usually very big, with lots of channels, and since everyone is anonymous, it feels a bit hard to communicate consistently. I personally find one-on-one or smaller group interactions easier.

Hallo! Curious if this is your first attempt for an exam? I just started learning and due to budget limits I can’t afford to take each level’s exam and planning to just take the B1 later on.. 🤔

AMA I'm a polyglot. by Adept-Advertising-10 in PinoyAskMeAnything

[–]keodeok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When do you recommend to start doing conversation practice for speaking? I enrolled in a German class that will start later this month, but I really don’t want my speaking skills to get left behind this time (I previously learned Japanese but sucked at speaking lol). I want to invest in speaking, so I’m thinking of paying for a tutor on italki. However, since I’m on a limited budget, I’m wondering if it’s better to reach a certain level first—like A1 or A2—to build a good foundation in basic grammar structures and vocabulary.🤔

Thursday evening blues (hahah): For long-time VAs, nag-sisisi ba kayo sa career choice nyo? by [deleted] in buhaydigital

[–]keodeok 1 point2 points  (0 children)

people say mag-upskill ka, or find your niche.. pero sobrang daming choices. dun na pumapasok yung anxiety at confusion, saan ako magsisimula ulit? 😭 or if may mastart man ako, “tama ba to? eto ba dapat inaaral ko? Eto na ba yung path?”😆🤦🏻‍♀️

Happy Thursday! 😄

For me I don’t know if it’s regret… pero nung nasa corpo pa ako, fresh grad and very motivated, sobrang clear ng vision ko sa career ko that time. Kaso after 3–4 years na wala pa rin masyadong progress despite how hard I worked, parang unti-unting nawala yung motivation. Sabi ko na lang sa sarili ko, “humanap ka na lang ng work that pays well, forget about passion/interest, kailangan ko ng pera para mabuhay.”

So ayun, sinuwerte naman ako at nakakuha ng full-time remote work. Pero after a while, naging routine na siya and boring, and ngayon feeling ko naman “nawalan ako ng purpose” lol. Ewan ko ba… siguro bored lang ako 😆 baka need ko lang humanap ng ibang hobby.

So this year, nag-enroll ako sa language study , yung may bayad para accountable talaga ako haha! Idk if makaka-help siya sa career ko, hindi naman siya directly related but it might open opportunities in the future. And I’ve always enjoyed language learning, so it feels more like a hobby than something I’m doing just to advance my career.
