Hola Senor Jordan,many thanks for the hard work and time you have put into this website. I just returned from a one week visit to cuba where I kept repeating “lento aprender espanol”.
I met many locals and tried to pick up as many words and phrases as I could remember.Upon returning home to Toronto Canada,I Have bought spanish/english dictionarys,borrowed cds from the library ,and last but not least,found your site.I am just getting started, and really enjoy your teaching method,which is entertaining and effective.Once again muchos gracias amigo!

Hola Sr. Jordan,
Tus videos son estupendos.
A mis estudiantes les encantan, nos gusta cantar los irregulares del pretérito. Great graphics, short, to the point, good examples, and you’re a cool guy.

Hey Jordan,
Thanks for the words to “Dios Puede Salvar” (from tangle email) and for the link to this website. I’ve already gone through a few lessons, and I just put the link out to my Spanish meetup group in Richmond, Va. Keep up the good work!

I found your video’s to be concise, entertaining and quite through, so I’ve committed myself to a minimum of 60 minutes a day (minus Saturday & Sunday) for 6 months to see if i can learn conversational Spanish.
Thanks for the motivation.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
I can’t tell you how wonderful it was to stumble across your videos via Google. This is a life saver for me!
I’ve been beating my head against a proverbial wall with Spanish verb tenses for longer than I care to admit. Seeing your videos has FINALLY cleared it up for me! Thank you SO much!

THANK YOU SO MUCH SENOR JORDAN!
You ROCK and are a God send for those of us who thought we could not learn a different language after a certain age!! Keep up the stellar work and know that your efforts are helping many many people!!!

All in good time…

Recientemente yo he juntado un foro en mexico acerca la cocha “smart car”. Yo encuentro que es una muy buen manera estudiar mi espanol. Porque de usted yo puedo comunicar en espanol con confidencia. Gracias para todo y buena suerte con tus estudios.

Just for correct your mistake. I am Spanish native speaker.
yo he formado ………..del coche (it is masculine)…I don’t understand (Porque……confidencia) all the sentence. I don’t catch you what do you want to say…
I hope that you don’t bother about my correction.
Matt // June 11, 2009 at 2:04 am |
Thank you so much. I have followed up ur excellent and splendid videos for a while, and really, tho i am a beginner in Spanish, i appreciate ur dedication!!!
Muchas gracias!!

You have an excellent site with clear and useful lessons. When you have the opportunity, please tackle indirect objects. Thanks for the great work and outstanding commitment.

Just moved from North Florida to McAllen Texas and am wanting to take this opportunity to learn a little spanish. Your site is very helpful. Thank you.

Your teaching videos are fantastic. They are so clear and concise. I went from YouTube to your website and have marked it as one of my favorite sites. I hope your graduate classes are going well and that you will be able to keep up with your videos for a long, long, time. I will be traveling to Mexico in a month and hopefully with what Spanish I did know and these videos for clarification, it will be a great learning experience and lots of fun.

I wanted to say thanks. I am a caregiver and envolved deeply with our caregive union. I am always in contact with other caregivers and many of them are spanish speaking. This awsome service is helping me to learn how to communicate with this awsome segment of population. Thanks so much.

¿Cuántos años tiene?
Señor Jordan // August 22, 2009 at 10:56 am |
Bastantes…

Muy buen sitio. Yo también tengo un sitio educativo para la enseñanza y el aprendizaje del español. Se llama Actualidades: Blogueando para aprender. ¿Le gustarÃa intercambiar enlaces?
Jane Jones // September 17, 2009 at 10:56 am |
I love your videos. The kids really enjoy watching you and learning from you. This year I am sorry to say that we can no longer get You tube on our computers. It has been put on the denied lists of websites. I want to show your videos to my students. Is there another website that I can go to get your videos? Please help!! Thank you very much. May God continue to bless you in your school work as well as in all your other endeavors.

The only way for you to do this really… would be to download the Youtube videos. Either Sr. Jordan could enable a download feature maybe, or you would go to http://www.keepvid.com and download them, then you would have to use a flash drive to transfer the videos to a school computer. To play the videos I would recommend a media player such as VLC, http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
You can download a .zip file of the VLC media player and keep it on the flash drive and then you would be able to play the videos.
It’s a lot of hoops… but that’s how you would do it.

Hola Jordan! Muchas gracias por tus videos! Soy Polaca, y tengo un novio que esta muy lejos de mi (
) vive en Chile, porque tengo y deseo hablar espanol muy bien [lo voy a necesitar en futuro si vivimos juntos en Chile]. Quieria preguntar: de donde eres y donde vives ahora? Lo se que no tienes mucho tiempo (como toda gente en siglo XXI
) pero puedes enviarme por mi correo electronico unos ejercisios para practicar Preterito Imperfecto y Preterito Indefinido? Por favor…
Muchas gracias por todo tu trabajo una vez mas!
chao, chao,
Marta, la Polaca.
Señor Jordan // September 29, 2009 at 3:44 pm |
Marta, Me da mucho gusto recibir un comentario de ti. Se me hace que tu vida va a tener que ver mucho con el español si te casas con un chileno. ¡Qué interesante!
Pues yo soy de los Estados Unidos (de América) y vivo en el estado de Missouri.
En cuanto al pretérito y el imperfecto… es posible que encuentres algo de utilidad en los enlaces siguientes…

Sr. Jordan,
I discovered your videos when doing a YouTube search. I am very appreciative of the effort you have made to help Spanish I students. I use your videos regularly and they are an excellent supplement to my in-class lectures.
Sincerely
Karenne Saylor, Arkansas

Muchas gracias! I’m waiting for these videos and also the future tense if possible. Hasta luego.
Debora // October 17, 2009 at 7:21 am |
Enhorabuena por tu blog!
Quizás sea interesante echar una mirada al mio, trato el trato con los españoles analizando refranes, frases hechas y dichos.
Un saludo desde Holanda
