Un placer conocerte y poder ayudarte a mejorar tu nivel de español, el cual ya está muy avanzado. Estoy seguro que en poco tiempo alcanzarás un mejor nivel.

Tom tiene un amplio vocabulario del idioma español , tal vez lo unico en lo que falla un poco es la conjugación pero solamente en las que son tan comunes, fue un placer charlar con el de temas culturales den idioma y países.

    How do you like to travel?

    If you are the type of person that likes to visit other places, what do you like to do? Are you a 'culture vulture' - someone who likes to visit museums and galleries. Are you a 'beach-goer' - someone who loves to visit the beach. Perhaps you're a 'thrill-seeker' - someone who loves adventure and adrenaline.


    I'm going to Berlin, Prague, and Vienna this month. Do you have any travel tips to share?

    Favourite home cooked and foreign cuisines.
    As I travel quite a bit, I have had the delight of tasting many different dishes from around the world. From Mexican to Vietnamese, and Hungarian to Fijian, these are cuisines which we have never tasted in the countryside of Wales!

    Personally, I would have to say that my favourite foreign dishes are: the huaraches from Mexico, and the green curries in Thailand. Some like it hot!

    At home here in Wales, you can't beat a roast dinner, with mashed potato, vegetables, a Yorkshire pudding, and a lot of onion gravy. Delish :)

    How about you, what are your favourite home cooked and foreign foods?

    Which TV series do you love learning languages with? I have recently watched the first two series of Narcos on Netflix. Narcos is a TV series which follows a DEA agent from the USA, along with his partner, track down and catch/kill the notorious Colombian drug lord, Pablo Escobar. As the show is set in Colombia, 50% of the dialogue is in Spanish, and the other, in English. I've never watched a TV series like this before, where it was in two different languages, and I must say that I learned so many new phrases and vocabulary! What about yourselves? Which TV series do you recommend to learn a language?

    Is English that important? Should the English language be considered the most important skill for non-native speakers? Perhaps the person is very skilled in other areas, but their English level is lacking and they find it difficult to improve their ability. They're very intelligent in their specific field, have a great work ethic, and are very friendly and easy to work with, but just because they don't know some phrasal verbs, or get some pronunciation incorrect, they are seen as less desirable than someone who has passed an English exam. Is English that important?

    Bonfire Night

    Guy Fawkes Night, also known as Bonfire Night, is an annual commemoration observed on the 5th of November, mainly in the United Kingdom. Its history begins with the events of the 5th of November 1605, when Guy Fawkes, a member of the Gunpowder Plot, was arrested while guarding explosives the plotters had placed beneath the House of Lords. Celebrating the fact that King James I had survived the attempt on his life, people lit bonfires around London; and months later, the introduction of the Observance of the 5th of November Act enforced an annual public day of celebration for the plot's failure.


    Do you have any strange, weird or wonderful public holidays in your country?

    Meditation fro language learning? I've read some articles about how meditation can help people to learn a language. Some research suggests that it can help improve our memory, helps us to focus, and increases our ability to work under stress. So coming home after a long day at work and having to take a language class can seem counter-productive, but if we practice meditating before we begin our language session, it could improve the likelihood of us keeping that new information in our minds. Do you meditate, or do yoga, and does it help you during your day or during any activities?

    Yes Hanji it all depends on what you're using your language for. If it's to have basic conversations with friends then you don't need more advanced vocabulary. I think that's why I'm half stuck and half content with my level of Spanish. I can get by living in a Spanish speaking country, but to have meaningful conversations, to understand native speakers, to understand the news, it's all too difficult for me and almost seems pointless. Pointless in the sense that I don't need it for anything important in my life right now, but then I guess how boring would life be if we only learned something for its importance, and not for the love of it..

    Intermediate Struggles As an intermediate student of Spanish myself, I'm wondering what do you struggle with as intermediate students yourselves? Is it more difficult grammar, more advanced vocabulary, having conversations, listening to native speakers, or a bit of everything?

    Are you a vegetarian? Why? Why not? More and more people these days are choosing the vegetarian lifestyle, and some go even further and become vegan. Are you a vegetarian/vegan? Why did you choose to cut out meat from your diet? Have you ever thought about trying to stop eating meat, or why do you think eating meat is good for you?
