Guys, Let me say something: Marina's videos have helped me a lot along the way! I found this channel over 3 years now and I am really happy to keep watching her videos here. If you want to speak english, never give up, sometimes it seems that we will never learn but it is not true, we are getting better always

[filopec]

Mam today I can speak with people in english without any fear just because of your videos which make me this

[mingmiao]

Marina you’re such an inspiration! I learned English long ago and have long forgotten the pain of doing so. Now I’m learning another foreign language (your native language, Russian, actually), and your tips are very much universally useful

[ElMoscas]

Excellent! I can watch the whole video without getting bored or skipping part of this amazing lesson and at all times I'm going to say that I dig how Marina makes English so desirable, and enjoyable. So many thanks to you for sharing it. The great feeling from Colombia.

[javlonbekabdullaev]

I occasionally found this channel and videos and been watching literally a couple of days and realized that you cover those my troubles from which I'm currently suffering. I got stuck to this channel. Thanx Marina.

[tatuang]

I got motivated a lot from your videos.I really wanna speak English without hesitation.Thanks in advance Marina, You Rock! ❤️

[richa]

This channel literally takes 90% credit for my improvement in English 🥺💜 thank you soooo much ❣️

[ephraimpakpahan]

Your videos help me to learn english, your pronounciation is very clear and easy to catch. Thank you marina.

[Siennaflower]

I really enjoyed this video! I am a native English speaker, and I love languages! I am learning Russian and Korean, and everything you talked about could be applied to learning any language. One reason I like your videos is that I am not only interested in other languages (I know some French, Spanish, Italian, and a little Japanese), but I also continue to learn new things about my own language! I admire people who learn English so much, because I know it's not easy!! ❤

[karinaaquino]

Marina..it's a real pleasure listening to you..you're right..the hate in social media exists, even thought you talk in your native language there will always people sending hate. Remember they are the problem, not you. Love ang hugs 🥰

[ashikihsan]

Thank you Marina for your encouraging words to speak English fearlessly and without shy. Marina, Sometimes people laughed at me and humiliated me when I make mistake in English, but I kept on speaking whatever the people say to me. Marina, I studied English at British Council in my Sri Lanka. I can speak well, but not fluently like a native speaker, if I watch your English lesson videos and watch English movies, I can learn more from you Marina. You are really kind

[Just_human_being]

Marina, thank you for your advice and for everything what you do to help us grow and develop in this quest “Learning english”

[suhelkhan]

Oh, Marina! You are an amazing instructor, man. I really enjoy your class and learn a lot of things from you. You are also a fantastic personality. I highly appreciate your proceedings. Love from Bangladesh.

Thanks a ton for this video. I was kinda waiting for such video to come up on your channel. It's always interesting to learn a language, not particularly English, but every other language. Keep learning and make mistakes and learn more and more.
