Let's dig a little deeper and learn more about the Spanish verb "hacer".

[petebowen]

I always wondered how “hizo” was inserted into so many sentences and I never understood why….until now: hizo can mean “to become”! Thank you so much: that cleared up a lot!

[deekay]

That was simply brilliant!! You have a great way of explaining things and you make it sound so easy to understand and learn this beautiful language.. Thank you

Pensé que estaba escuchando una lección de inglés y no una lección de español.por favor mucho español y un poco de inglés.Gracias

[pauleff]

Can I say I've seen a few of your films having found your channel by accident. Can I add to that and say I very much think you really are a very good teacher. Thank you for the lesson.

En Español: Puedo decir que pienso que seas una buena maestra. Eres estadounidense sin duda pero ¿tus padres son Hispanohablantes? _Cando hables en español, lo haces como eres totalemente bilingüe - caundo eras niña, ¿vivía en una casa dondo hablaban español sienpre?_ Solo un curiosidad en mi mente.

Intento decir otros estudiantes sobre de tu canal. Gracias mucho de compartir la lección con nosotros. Me he subscrito también.

Yes simple sentences is exactly what I was thinking. Cut those in half and hang on the text for 3 seconds longer.

[FMK]

Really good and helpful. Thanks a lot.

Hi, Thank you for your helpful Spanish Videos. I refer my adult learners to your videos. There is one thing that I request. Please slow down your speech pattern in Spanish. It is important that the "input" can be understood for correct pronunciation, masculine/femine and tense to be corrected when the students follow your "model" when speaking. Thanks again for your Spanish language teaching and your kind consideration.

[Umaykalamay]

so we can use "hacer " and "llego a ser" interchangeably if we are speaking about profession or work?

[Rdavis]

I learned from this video. It was well done. However, the yellow font does not show up well.

[yannahgrekita]

This would have been better if you only used simple sentences inatead of long ones.

I just realized Spanish speaking citizens cannot really use the phrase "Make like a tree and leave". So sad.
