Inquiry about the content on Patreon
Added 2023-03-31 12:18:58 +0000 UTCHey guys!
I was looking at the analytics in Patreon and I realized that barely anyone uses the resources I post (aka: laura’s log, the exercises etc). So, I was wondering if I should stop doing those and invest the time I usually put into creating those resources into creating something else you might find more useful, or if instead of stoping all together, do 2 monthly laura's log and do something else with the remaining time!
Maybe you do like them and would like me to keep doing them. I don't know!
So let me know what you think. Would should I keep creating the current content, or should I change it up? Should I do less... None? And if I were to change it up, what would you like to see? What would you find useful? I was thinking of doing instead more content to review what you already learn on the videos. So, exercises, vocabulary lists and such.
I don’t know if you would find that useful. Do you have any other suggestions or requests? What would you like to see on Patreon? Maybe you like it the way it is now. Let me know so that I know how to make this better for you!
Leave your suggestions in the comments or send me a message!
PS: I'm sorry in advance for my lack of presence these days! I'm in my final semester of uni and the pressure and workload is high in this final sprint. Although I'm trying to keep up with the content creation, I'm kinda struggling hahaha-
Hopefully it goes by without a hitch!

2023-05-11 16:55:06 +0000 UTCHey, I love all your videos and logs, it's hard to point out something particular. :-)Your imagination on finding new subjects for videos and logs is outstanding, so I can only tell you my humble opinion.Probably my favorite ones are those, where I can learn about little details about everyday life in Spain. Various traditions in Spain (national holidays and simply what Spaniards are doing for example on weekends), what radio station, TV or Youtube channel is most popular, etc... :-)Thanks for wallapop, local classifieds are often better than ebay. :-) I love food, so I adore your videos about food and would love to see more (your garlic toast and potato omelette recipes would be nice). Also how you choose food (RAF tomatoes were new to me), probably you also know how to choose other vegetable sorts, brands for groceries and which supermarket chain is better for what. Your opinion on Colacao vs Nesquik. :-) Traveling across Spain, visiting any places you like, small towns, villages, big cities, mountains or beaches. Everything is interesting to hear or to see. :-) Todo y nada... Vlogs about daily life... all videos are amazing. Anyway, good luck with uni, don't stress about videos. Like Maria wrote, internal harmony is most important. :-)

2023-04-16 18:08:35 +0000 UTCAs with most of the comments above, I enjoy the laura's log and in particular your youtube videos. I just need to organise myself better so i can extract the max value out of your work/content. Buena suerte with the exams!

2023-04-07 09:54:20 +0000 UTC¡No te pares por favor, acabo de conocerte y tus obras! A los estudiantes les encantan tus vídeos! Una me dijo que quería escuchar tu habla toda la noche como el sonido de las olas)) Y los podcasts son un tesoro. Gracias por tu trabajo. ¡Pero claro que la harmonía interna es lo más importante!
2023-04-04 21:04:41 +0000 UTCHey Laura. I listen to hours and hours of Spanish YouTube videos from various providers, yours included of course, so use your logs as a reading/translation exercise. It takes me about one and a half hours to work through a beginner level text and about 3 hours for an intermediate. I don’t even look at the advanced ones. Maybe you could separate the audio from the written as it seems from the comments that most people use the logs for listening practice only. If you were to do something different for the written, smaller bite size chunks please. For the ‘simple’ texts: present, simple past and simple future tenses only. No colloquialisms! Basically that means keeping away from la palabra ‘que’, (other than it’s simple meaning of ‘what’ obviously). Que seems to change meaning depending on the company it keeps and it can change the meaning of the words which come before or come after it!!!!! Es un tricky little feque! Just being nosy, but what’s your main subject at uni? Cuidate y buena suerte con tus exámines.

2023-04-02 15:33:41 +0000 UTCLaura's log is extremely helpful and my main source of learning Spanish! So it would be very sad if you stop making it altogether. But maybe it's a good idea to make it biweekly so that you can make some time for your other content creation.
2023-04-01 00:32:04 +0000 UTCI agree, I find laura's log very helpful to practice listening too and every week I catch some new words, not to mention that I always enjoy your sense of humor ;) (I also very often promise myself, that I will practice writing in Spanish in the comments but reality is as it is) ;( However I do not do the word search exercises, as I do not have half enough patience to search for all those damn words... I agree that it would be a shame to lose laura's log forever, though if you try some other form it could be interesting as well. I guess you know that you have a talent for experimenting :)

2023-03-31 21:33:24 +0000 UTCI’m finding Laura’s logs to be helpful and would hate for them to go away completely, I’m sure they take a lot of time to produce so it’s a shame more people aren’t taking advantage of them. I would be happy with some quick, low production videos if that’s easier, but whatever you choose to do I’m sure will be great. Now, go finish your schoolwork before you worry about us any further.
2023-03-31 17:42:13 +0000 UTCHey ! Listening to your log has been quite helpful for me in terms of trying to improve my listening comprehension, so please keep doing it ! Good luck with your last semester and your finals.
2023-03-31 13:38:20 +0000 UTCHey, glad to hear from you! I was afraid we lost you forever. :-) I'm personally too lazy to do exercises, but reading and listening to your log's is a great great pleasure! Although i miss your new videos, it's good to know you are away for serious reason. Good luck with your uni! :-)
