What I learned in this conversation: Breathing is an important thing. Don't forget it.

Teacher: "My Advice are two things" 1: Relax 2: Relax

For someone who thinks the tutor is bad: The reason why he asks her to breathe is because he knows that she is nervous. She always says her english is poor. So the first important thing to do before start the conversation is to make her relax, and change her mindset if she actually can do it. If she can do those two things, the conversation will go well.

When he asked her how old she was, after she answered 15, I thought he would say "you look older than that" 😅😂😂

"You look older than your age " giiiiirlllllllllllllllllll😂😂😂

I'm 24 years old, and I can't speak as well as you. And you're just 15, your English is fantastic. Congratulation 👏👏👏

I don't think he is a bad teacher. He doesn't have to smille! Actually he was very patient and she was too nervous.

Your facial expressions when she was playing with those scissors 😂✂️

Some advice for ESL teachers: 1. You can model a simple self introduction so that the student is given an example of how to begin. And then ask them. 2. It's better to begin with simple questions about where they live, what they like, what they do. Asking, 'What do you want to be?' to a 15y.o. will typically require a lot of thinking time, because these kind of hypotheticals require thinking time even in a native language. 3. It's important to lead the lesson for students who are nervous, and give them support by structure, not just telling them to relax. A better way is to say, 'Don't be nervous, because it will make me nervous' or similar at the start. Try to make it something you can bond over, and show empathy. As soon as a student feels engaged in the conversation, and supported they stop being nervous. Just as they will start to become nervous again if they feel lost in what is said. Some advice for ESL students: 1. Begin with some basics about yourself. There's no need to jump to trying to think of questions to ask. 2. Respond to the answer the teacher gives you, 'You look older.' was a good example of showing comprehension and continuing the conversation, even though some people might find the comment a little impolite. Responding shows that you are listening. 3. Practice with simple follow up questions that are connected: e.g. student: Where are you from? teacher: I'm from New York. student: Oh great! Do you like New York? or... I'd love to go to New York one day. teacher: Yes, I do. student: What do you like about it? or... How long have you lived in New York? 4. You can practice basic introductions and questions based on that topic, to make the conversation sound less random. This kind of easy, smooth conversation will impress a teacher more than asking random questions that are not connected to the topic. e.g. I'm from [city] in [country]. Have you ever been to [city/country]? I am learning English. Can you speak any other languages? I started learning English 2 years ago. When did you start teaching English?

I can't believe you told him, you look older than that 😂🤭

"Don't cut your thumb off." With his shock reaction 😂😂

Girl: “Can I get some advice”....Teacher: “Don’t cut your thumb off”. Hilarious 😂 😁

RELAX RELAX. SLOW DOWN. BREATHE. IF I LEARNED ANYTHING... IT'S TO BREATHE, RELAX, and SLOW DOWN.

LESSON : "If you want to learn and speak well in English just Breathe" ✌️

If I were her I wouldn't have booked another lesson after that introduction lesson. 1 She didn't seem nervous enough to warrant spending half the lesson telling her to relax. She certainly wasn't timid and I honestly had a question about who was the student and who was the teacher at first. 2 He didn't even properly explain the proper method to reduce stress by deep breathing. Your body tenses up when you inhale and relaxes with you exhale so the key is to take a quick breath in and and hold it, then let it out slowly. spend 10% of the time inhaling and 90% exhaling. 3 This is supposed to be an English class and they spent very little time on that. I'd spend a few minutes making a connection with the student by asking them about their favorite subject-themselves. I've done a lot of different things, I have varied interests and I've been to almost 60 countries so no matter what they bring up I'll either have a relevant comment or question to elicit more information from them. Once that's done, I'd point out and correct errors in pronunciation and grammar, encourage self-correction, offer alternative words to use, better ways to express themselves, new vocabulary related to their topics, and work of improving fluency, grammar and pronunciation through repetition or exercises.

Here is some advice: 1. Don't tell people that they look older than their age. This may upset them. 2. Really, don't play with scissors in front of people who don't know you. They may think that you may be a maniac and you will cut yourself :D 3. There are 2 people in a conversation. Let the other person ask questions too. Otherwise it is a monologue, not a dialogue. 4. Try to understand what the other person is saying. Don't change the subject this quickly.

Girl: What are you doing? Teacher: In my life? Girl: Hold old are you? Teacher: Slow down, Relax. I'm 26 Girl: You look older than your age Teacher: No I don't 😂 I love this video, so cool

This isn't an English conversation This is such a great class of Yoga The whole video BREATHE,BREATHE,BREATHE 😂

As an online English teacher myself, this tutor is making her feel way more uncomfortable and nervous than she already is. You make the student comfortable by talking to them casually, not by pointing out for them to be calm all the time or breathe... gosh.

The girls English is really good actually

You're the kind of student every teacher wishes for - communicative, knows what they want and motivated!

Her English is better anyway,she just needs to learn some English manners and formal way of speaking.

Good teacher i have ever seen . Since they start their coversation she overcome him and he's waiting to stop her and make her feel comfortable first. Then he started taught her .

It looks like she's teaching him😂 why she's so nervous

That moment when she takes out a pair of scissors and puts her thumb in between the blades. Tutor's eyes: 00 😂😂😂

I’ve been using Cambly for 2 months, but I always feel reluctant to rewatch the history videos of me having conversations with the English tutors. Because most of the time I feel embarrassed watching myself. It’s very brave of you to rewatch it and upload it on UKposts. Your English is great and there’s a lot I can learn from you even though you are so young. keep up:)

Girl: she is so talkative but don't know what to talk. Guy: He should be more talkative so that he can stop the girl uneasiness 😊

Teacher: I'm 26. Student: Well, you look older than that... Me: Oh noh! 😔

I am also 15 from India. After watching this video I feel relaxed that the students of other non speaking country have to face same nervousness while speking english when you are in conversation with People you think know better english than yours

This girl is really brave but I feel like they are not in the same frequency😂

It was kind of sad the number of times I saw that guy rolling his eyes. I'd not like to have a teacher like that.

The advices was the best part of this video! Congrats, Vy!

This video should be called "just keep breathin and breathin and breathin" 🤣🤣😭

Full marks for the teacher's patience. He was extremely polite and patient

Im a new online english teacher but I have also learned two languages over the years. I can 100% see what to do and not to do in this video. 1. Make sure my body language promotes a comfortable learning environment. 2. Ask the the student about them and for their learning needs and concerns. 3. Don’t be demanding. 4. Don’t tell the student to rate you 5 stars after rolling your eyes for 15 minutes. 5. Be calm myself before thinking of telling my student to breathe and calm down. 6. Keep the hairstyle I started the lesson with to reduce distractions.

You're a great student, I love it when my students are enthusiastic about learning english, you deserved a better tutor!

big congratulations to the girl who is such a nice person and can turn what would have been a weird encounter into a nice and pleasant conversation. Girl, you are such a bigger person than your "tutor" !

Your English is great, Vy! You can accomplish anything you want - whether it's university studies, jobs, travel, and anything else. Keep up the great work!

You do not have to be afraid! Getting nervous is normal, everyone goes through it at first. you did very well in this experience of speaking with a native. I watched the video, and learned a lot from you! congrats! Thank you so much for teaching me so much even though I am so young. You have a lot of potential, and you go much further! congrats..

"You look older than your age" that was the funniest part of the video

The girl memorised or had some sentences written down to fire at the teacher but wasn't listening or paying attention to him. He was right in pointing out that she needed to breathe because she wasn't showing herself interest in a dialogue but only in saying the few sentences she knew. It takes a patient teacher...

"What are you doing?" "In my life?" "What?" *Directed by Robert E. Weid*

She’s so nervous but still enthusiastic and I actually think she’s really good already, she’s just nervous. I think he’s letting her speak first a lot as a way to just let her be so she can manage her nerves. Sometimes if we start off too much the student might be overwhelmed so I think he’s amazing at helping her through. Can clearly see why he’s the best. 😊

Your ending sounds are excellent, Vy. I've been teaching English in Vietnam for 8 years and the endings sounds are a struggle for all my Viet students. You are doing great! You have excellent pronunciation. Keep up the good work. BTW, it's not polite to ask people their age (or tell them they look older than their age.

im very patient (rolls eyes) 😂😂😂

Congratulations!! I am 21 years old and watching your video make me remember myself in my fifteen years old and by that time my english was so bad. Now your english is really good, imagine when you will have my age, your english will be perfect :) Go ahead!!

Im dying when he's rolling his eyes😂

It's so happy to talk to someone very kind, he taught a lot, adviced many things how improve her english skills.

You did a great job speaking english! I know that it can be a little scary speaking a new language with a native speaker, but your teachers will be patient and kind and proud of you for trying. Keep up the good work and good luck!

THE TRIAL WITH CAMBLY IS REALLY AMAZING I JUST HAVE SEEN. I LOVED THIS VDO AND I LOVED CAMBLY SO MUCH. THE TEACHER WAS FANTASTIC. I HOPE I WILL JOIN THIS GROUP SOON. ALL THE BEST. ❤

One of the funniest conversation between a teacher and a student. I find both of them so so funny..I constantly keep laughing at their conversation..hahaa I wanna try this app hahaa

Congratulations to this girl. She's very young but I think the teacher could be a little more friendly. I think he's as nervous as she is. As a teacher myself, I don't really mind when students speak more than I do, because what is important to me is that they practise their English and feel comfortable. The teacher is also young, I'm sure he is doing his best.

No offense but am I the only who find this video a bit cringy?

If I speak like her I consider my self as native speaker !!!

11:40 Teacher- What are the three things I taught you? Student - *SILENCE*

She is not afraid. She is very excited and willing to communicate. He doesn't really help her.

Such a nice student. I think you did very well in your first lesson. For me I think your English is good. The way you talk is nice, you sound smart and mature. I would be very glad to have you as my student!

Your English is so great! I taught Chinese and Korean students in the US at an American University and your English speaking level is about the same!

I completely agree with the comments, you’re a fantastic student every teacher wants and fires questions at the teachers instead of the either way around :))

I love this I’m so glad she put the scissors away I was so afraid. Great teacher

Anyone see me?! 😜 I am going to upload a new conversation on UKposts tomorrow! Stay tuned and watch it! You'll never regret^^

Don't cut your thumb

Relax... girl,,, I am so impressed by his patience.

0:47 He handled it beautifully. You're my hero. If I were him, I would have been very upset. Haha 😂

meus parabéns , você fala muito bem. A minha primeira vez falando com um estrangeiro também foi difícil. Mas aos poucos eu vou perdendo o medo, e quando vejo que tem pessoas esforçadas assim como você eu fico feliz . você é 10

6:30 I'm not in New York.. I am in South America *Opens his hair 😆😆

This video was awesome( i love how this word songs/ i'm an english learner) and i'm here to say that my first experience with Cambly was like that, i enjoyed it and was awesome to know that there's teachers on there like this one. I apreciated your video and i hope you improve each time more I'm improving too and desire the same for everyone

He looks like he hates his job 😂

You're already very good at English girl. Only relax and listen during the conversation with anybody. When you speak English with others,remember to use "please and thank you'' with a light tune so it looks like you are more respectable, and you are too ! Wish U a good luck.

The best part was when he takes his hair down - he just made her even more nervous 😂😂😂

Is he a yoga teacher ? He only says to breathe

Esse professor é maravilhso. Parabens ao aluno e ao professor. Valeu teacher congratulations

You pronounced words nicely. You speak very well at all, just need to practice listening, be familiar with a lot of word sounds, you know? And as you said, that was you first time in a real conversation with a native? Speak in front of the mirror or practice with your friend, it may help. Good luck🤗

This tutor is NOT a good tutor. He's rolling his eyes, disengaged, not leading the conversation, and more. This girl is too kind-hearted to believe this was fantastic!

You are doing great!!! I think that he is impatient, you seem very calm to me& We all have different styles of speaking 😊 Keep it up!

I think the teacher is great! She just keeps talking and talking and is nervous so he is trying to make her more comfortable.

You have confidence dear and it's matters alot so keep it up 🥰🥰

I heard *'Relax'* and *'Breath'* thousands of time in 14 minutes 😂 Love this video!

She speak English very well I love her Pronunciation

"Are you breathing?" 😂 what kind of question is that hahah.

Both of you are nice. If you were not nervous I think you could've mentioned about his long beautiful hair Thanks for uploading this video 😊

Now, I realize that breathing is more important than learning English😂

Wow! I sincerely enjoy watching your speaking with native speaker...! You both teach me lots of how to speak, especially he often says relax, it also helps me how to control my feelings as well...! Nice to see you video.

The teacher speaks very clear and with good entonation, yes I understand that a teacher must be clear to student can comprehend the information receive from

Great conversation, she is cute! made my day

Student : You look much older than your age. Teacher: Relax! Take a deep breathe. lol!

your first time English conversation with tutor is so Good mam... Sir was calmly handled with wonderful patience....

I like this teacher Because he understood the Problem of student specially He encouraged her to speak while she hasitation His teaching way Is great which I liked a lot

Nice job! It's scary at first learning a new language, isn't it? I am an American that just moved to Indonesia. I'm learning Indonesian right now, and most people here don't speak English. So, I speak Indonesian every day even though I'm still not very good at it yet. My husband speaks fluent Indonesian, Sundanese, and English, so he's helping me learn Indonesian. I'm a Cambly tutor also, and enjoy helping others learn English. How are your English studies going now? Still having fun learning English? I bet you've learned a lot since this video! :)

Cậu nói Tiếng Anh khá hay và có ending sounds nữa. Nhưng vẫn còn một số điều cậu cần cải thiện: - Cậu cần bình tĩnh, trước khi call cho native speaker thì có thể hít một hơi thật sâu. Không nên nói quá nhanh cũng không nên nói quá chậm. - Cậu cần chuẩn bị những câu hỏi hay, thú vị để hỏi người ta để không lãng phí cái cơ hội nói chuyện này. Cậu cần chủ động hơn, đây là giao tiếp, là cả hai người cùng trò chuyện, cậu hỏi xong thầy hỏi, như trò chuyện cùng với bạn bè vậy. - Hạn chế nói "Ừ. Ừm. Ờ", nếu nói thì sẽ càng thể hiện ra cậu đang rất lo lắng và không bình tĩnh. - Cần "Eyes Contact" (Giao tiếp bằng mắt) nhiều hơn, nó thể hiện rằng cậu muốn và rất có hứng thú trò chuyện với người ta, chứ đừng lảng tránh ánh mắt, nhưng cũng đừng có lúc nào cũng nhìn thẳng, vì nó khiến người ta sợ đấy. Vừa eyes contact nhưng thỉnh thoảng cũng có thể nhìn sang chỗ khác cũng được. - Tớ cũng từng đọc được ở bài báo nào đó, cũng không nhớ lắm, khi họ nói tuổi của họ, tầm từ 18 - 25 tuổi thì mình sẽ bảo họ "older than your age" tức trông họ trưởng thành hơn, còn từ 25 trở lên thì sẽ bảo họ "younger than your age". - Khi thầy hỏi một câu nào đó, cậu cần trả lời rõ ràng và dứt khoát. Ví dụ như thầy hỏi "What do you want to be when you grow up?" Cậu có thể trả lời là "I want to be a teacher in the future because being with children and watching them learn and succeed is my passion. And I love children, too. They're so adorable!" Chứ đừng trả lời cụt, thế sẽ làm người kia không biết hỏi gì thêm nữa và mất hứng trò chuyện hơn. - Cậu có thể sử dụng Linking verbs, Idioms, etc để giúp câu có liên kết hơn. - Và cuối cùng là... NEVER GIVE UP! Đúng vậy, đừng bao giờ từ bỏ ước mơ của mình, mục tiêu của mình. Đừng bao giờ nói mình không thể làm được. Tặng cậu một câu mà tớ lượm được trên mạng "Sucess isn't about being the best. It's about always getting better". Chúc cậu thành công trong cuộc sống! xD.

She looks very friendly, and interactive, and she speaks English already 😆😆😆

Santiago, you did a good job, it was a difficult class, indeed. By the way, nice hair.

10% conversation 90% relax

4:51 Come on! Your English skills are not poor. You sound almost like a native speaker. I know you will have success 👏🏼 Keep practicing! You are very smart and talented!

Great class. The teacher is amazing. Congrats teacher, congrats student. Thank you for the video.

I just remembered my first exprience on the cambly ...That was so embrassing I was talk too much and every 2 minutes I was saying 'am I sayin right ?' And the tutor was just smile and he was try to be kind all that time And when the lesson was over he just said ' you talk ver well actually if you keep talk and practice you can talk like native speaker' At first I had no idea what was he talking After 1 month when I analysis my course history I just listen And after that I was ımmpressed by myself becuse I was so confident But... I was talking so nonsense(?) And at the end of that video I understood even if you have so much confident and if you study hard and don't afraid to talk you will gonna be better one day P.S; I'm still learning sorry for my mistake in that paragraph :)

Thx for share these and I really think your pronouncing so good

It's so funny this intervew hahahah relax...relax ...relax

Having to experience being both a nervous student like her and a teacher who teaches students like her, I think understand them both. It’s true that if you just keep asking and asking questions like she did, the person having conversation with you will be annoyed. I think this teacher wanted to teach her how to properly have a conversation not only because he was irritated, but also because he thought it would be better for her future. Though I think he could’ve taught that in a better way. She’s such a sweet and smart girl, I’m pretty sure she’ll improve quickly!
