you speak too quickly and it becomes difficult to understand clearly what your trying to say. second, the playing around is distracting,making it difficult to concentrate on the subject (tagalog) .need to do it without all the playing between you and your friends .
for some great lessons on how to do a pod cast that will offer the people much help , you can listen to a pod cast called Learn Tagalog Easy.the girls who do this are very dedicated to teaching and they do a really wonderful job. however,being in school, makes it difficult for them to do it on a regular basis. because of this, you might have to wait for a month or more to get a new addition to the series.; 5/16/2008 1:57 AM

I've heard the Learn Tagalo Easy podcast...it's ok but I retain more with you guys. Different strokes for different folks I guess, and my learning style coincides with making Tagalog fun.

Fun = easy to me.; 8/8/2008 1:36 AM
