learning while working // the self-learning diaries #1

Hey Mariana! Congratulations on your next big step! I am a 28 y/o lawyer from Poland currently working full time in Berlin. I also try to learn Italian by myself while doing that, so I am looking forward to hearing your advice and experiences. I am not progressing as fast As I would like to with Italian, so maybe you will help me figure out what I can improve. I keep my fingers crossed for you. Greetings from Berlin! Olga

Hey! If I may give you a tip, there is a better language app for Japanese. It’s called LingoDeer, and it’s quite similar to Duolingo, but it’s way more developed for Asian languages. I hope it helps! And I love your channel and I hope you’ll succeed!

brooke miccio!

Awesome. It will be so helpful for me. I awant to dive it in bible study and catholisms cathechism refresh and I already have the books and supplies... cant wait for your new video!

I am a full time parent and completing my degree online, with yearly exams, I hope this will help me more.

How old are you?

I am so excited for you to embark on this new journey. I am in a similar situation as you and cannot wait for the content to roll out! 😊

You are honestly such an inspirational power woman to me. Thank you for all that you do.

I LOVE your desk setup. Wooden theme is so relaxing, and you keeping the setup minimalist is very pleasing to look at.

Wohoo! I loved the change :) as a worker and curious person I'm findind hard to balance both and keep studying after a full-day job. Hope to get some useful insights 😊

Good luck dear Mariana !!! Thank you very much.. your videos are so inspirational !!

I love this so much! I love that you're challenging yourself by learning languages in particular! I feel like for me I make every excuse to not make time for learning Spanish but if you can do it, I can do it too!

I was wondering wether you have considered transferring to a distance learning university. You could easily take a couple of subjects per year and continue with your history degree, even if it were a little bit slowlier. Don't take me wrong, I find it amazing that you have chosen to study languages instead, I'm just curious about why you decided this. I personally am about to start studying my second degree at a distance learning university while I work, so I'm particularly interested on this!!

Good luck Mariana!

como aprendiste ingles ??? necesito consejos

Hi Mariana! I've been following you since you were Alice 😉 It's great to see your progress, congrats on your new job and good luck!! I'm also a student and work full time. It's been hard but so worth it! I only have one class left to graduate but decided to take it next year so I can focus on my health and relationships now. In my experience, those are the main things that we neglect when working and studying so it's nice to see you made a decision to put your history degree on hold for now. Good luck with everything!! 😘

OMG... I'm researching this kinds of experiences or tips for a long time. I want to find a balance strategy for my job and my personal leaning process . 🙌🏼🙌🏼

Ali Abdaal is studying in med school, is working in hospital, has a yt channel and unrelated company. Has plenty of time management tips.
I've read that learning 2 or more languages simultaneously is more harder than focusing on one. As a person who would also like to learn a lot of foreign languages, looking forward to see your progress. Best of luck at your new job!

I am trying to learn Japanese, too! I would recommend you Rachelleea, her channel is pretty helpful for working students.

Ebaaa! Japonês! Eu estou aprendendo japonês também. Vou adorar dicas sobre isso <3

This is gonna be really helpful!! I am working full time and needs to learn Japanese. I would love to know your routine!

Hi Mariana! I also a portuguese and I'm trying improve my English to became fluent. Can you share what you have done to speak fluently? You pratice with natives? What's the problems you have face? And congratulations your speaking ( in sense of pronuciation and ritm) are very good! Sorry for any mine written mistake!

Yes, yes and yes!
Having a full-time job since 2010 (!), I always had problems carving out some free time for learning and exploring my many interests, so this kind of video is really appreciated.
PS: good luck on this new adventure!

I'm full-time employed and want to learn Latin. But for various reasons I don't make any real progress. I'd be happy if one of your videos also focuses on Latin specifically and the methods you use to make time and learn the language. Thanks. And congratulations on getting the job!

Mal posso esperar! Será muito bom e útil ver "gente como a gente" trabalhando duro e, ainda assim, estudando 🤗 boa sorte!

i just love your confidence self now like talking in a camera. keep up the good work!✨

You are my favorite youtubber!

Thanks 😍

You are the one gave me inspiration on beginning of my studies in Law. Much Love 😘😘

omg just what I need. I started working 2 weeks ago and I'm learning Japanese, Polish and Spanish.

I learn German now and want to start French again after a long break. Spanish is also added to the list. I will follow your progress. I hope that would also help to motivate me. Best of luck :)

I've never learned 3 languages at the same time

You are really productive! which motivates us

@evecornwell knows the dets! Highly recommended on what was that you asked. 💛🙏

Simply Nailogical's Cristine has a full time job and most likely won't be quitting anytime soon, she's been doing this for years, and has shifted her format based on the kind of content she enjoys making!

I am excited for the unfolding of this challenge! I was wondering how to do the same thing!

OMG! It's so good to see your face after so many years following your channel! I admire you badly! Thanks to share your ideas with all of us!

I am very much looking forward to following this learning journey. I am actually in the exact same boat. Since finishing my degree, I too have shifted gears somewhat into three other languages (Latin, Greek, and Russian). I'm interested to see how you structure your at home language learning.

Hello!! I’m relatively new to your channel (I’ve only subscribed a couple months ago I think) but since the first video I’ve related so much to you, you are truly an inspiration. I’m a Med student (what I call full time job lol) but I also play the violin daily, write regularly and study Japanese (and literally every language I cross upon when I’m able to!).
What you said about only giving advice on things you can back up with actions is one of the things I admire so much about you. I incorporate in my life most of the advice you give because I can see in you that it works, that you’re not just saying cause it will seem good.
Also, what is differentiate your channel from others is the depth of the knowledge you have on things that you’re talking about, that can obviously only come from experience, whereas other people stop at the surface.
Thank you so much for the content and the effort, hope this phase of your life is full of knowledge and experiences!
Love from Brazil!!!

Hi Mariana, I love your job! Would you know any very easy tutorial about use Dashlane effectively please? I got a premium account but somehow I’m having doubts with it! Tutorials can be in portuguese language as well ;) Many thanks and one more time, you are amazing! 🤩

This is a very well produced video. I am researching Learning in the Flow of Work and I believe your coverage is relevant to this idea. I share tips on studying while working on my channel and I hope they are helpful.
