last time we talked so I think maybe
yeah yeah a while yeah i think i think
it’s ember my fear the last time i
talked with you
oh I don’t know because in that time I I
can’t speak anything so it was so hard
for me oh well it’s a big change from
then to now how do you feel today
no I think I I get by with my English I
know you’ve been doing a lot and you’re
really involved with a lot of groups and
communities and that’s wonderful yeah
you are parked up it’s okay
oh good yeah your course are amazing and
you helped me so much in the yes so
that’s great so tell me what kind of
things have helped you so far now I’m
always next time for English okay I’m
already always surround myself with
teams
so I watching TV shows I may I may I
wait of course I do some courses yes I
do some cards and and they read a lot I
love read okay what kind of things do
you like to read creams crimes because
it’s more easier it’s easier to
understand it’s easier the dialogue is a
little more simple yes so I start
reading some romance but I like crimes
so romance or crime and mystery is an
awesome way so you’re reading in English
and just surrounding yourself with yeah
the language and just enjoyed it it’s
beautiful I know that you are also a
wonderful part of our private Facebook
group you’ve really contributed a lot of
enthusiasm and encouragement so I want
to say thank you
for that it means a lot I thank you
thank you
this group is amazing I made a lot of
friends there and it’s amazing we can
talk to each other and on skype and the
it’s amazing this is something that I
love that I didn’t even organize it and
some of the people in the group
including you just decided to talk
together yeah that’s great enthusiasm
and passion yeah okay but the important
is don’t give up okay and go ahead and
try your best
I think so yes yes that has worked
really well for you over the last six
months or so you just
Dovan and did English as much as
possible yes - enjoy - journey
okay that’s great enjoy the journey yes
okay right right so it’s good to enjoy
learning instead of just thinking about
some day I will be fluent but now I’m
not satisfied but enjoying now - behind
if I look back okay step by step and I
think the biggest thing too is just
confidence and booking the Skype
conversation together in doing it that
takes a lot of guts and courage
yes I think so and the if you you
try even making mistake okay yeah body
okay love it I love that art yes it’s
part of the process and even in life not
with English we still make mistakes
cooking or talking with people so it’s
okay
mistakes are normal but we have to eat
so we have to keep trying wonderful
positive mindset I think that positivity
will help you improve much faster than
worrying or being negative so you’re on
the right path oh I know I know and I
know that you also downloaded the The
Fearless fluency Club videos with my
sister and with Dan and I’m curious what
is your experience with that what did
you think about it Randal a rebel okay
okay it’s amazing because we can hear
the conversations okay
oh I love you printed it out this is yes
because I can read and the uncertainty
crescents you make okay and the then we
can talk about it you honest - which
other members that’s wonderful
it’s amazing because you prat seed
friends practice you’re practicing it
yeah and
it’s more it’s easier to understand yeah
keep it in your mind yeah I think that’s
the important thing is keeping it in
your mind and remember I mean it’s a big
challenge to remember new things
constantly so you’re using it reading
the questions watching the videos using
it on skype with other members that’s
beautiful I love it what I try to do we
did the new expressions is to make
phrase we do something about my
experience so I try writing something so
I think it’s more it’s easier - yes it’s
easier to understand and I love that
you’re not worried about mistakes and
you’re even correcting yourself so you
use the questions and trying to think
about it with your own life is a great
way because we know our own lives and we
care about our own lives more than some
other stories so it’s useful it’s good
to write about your own experience when
was a time that I had to do something or
use your own experience I know your life
in Brazil you’ve got a lot of passions
you’re into art and you have your son
and English lots of things that’s great
though he’s your love how old is your
son again
17 17 wow you look so young to have a 17
year old son
oh it’s good to have a passion and that
your family is your passion and English
and art you’re also into art that’s just
a beautiful method you’ve continued to
use English challenge yourself even
though you don’t like studying you can
find fun ways to use it for yours right
adapt it to yourself don’t give up yes
yes I’m curious and maybe other people
will be curious to how much time in
general do you think you spend with
English every day or every week this
isn’t a test
I’m just curious I just read in English
I always reading some articles or listen
something in English okay okay even in
my my lunchtime or at night I always
watching TV shows in English in English
it’s completely surrounding you you’re
immersed even you you know about it
it’s important because sometimes you
don’t get some words and your techid
yeah I think it’s a good way to catch
each word and you’re not reading and
Portuguese and listening in English it’s
all English but you’re catching new
words instead of looking it up or it’s
just
your way yes that’s definitely the right
way immerse yourself live in English Oh
far from the US yes I’m surrounded by
English yes I I think this is really
it’s a big challenge but you have
succeeded because a lot of people think
I’m too far from english-speaking
countries or English speakers but you
really can create an English world as
much as possible yeah even though you’re
a busy person you still did it more easy
easier but the first step to improving
is recognizing it so your everyday part
way there keep up the good work Mara
I’m so happy to talk with you today and
see your amazing progress I think you
should be proud of yourself thank you
for your kind words I appreciate your
sincere opinion that’s awesome
so keep it up and see you on our
Facebook group thanks so much for
