RE: With the support of YouAreHOPE I was able to give food to people in the street with need in Venezuela

in #venezuela7 years ago

I really like how you did this post!

The video was great. It was a good length, well edited, simple and told a great story.

The video is simple and easy to relate to. Helping people in need is a good story.

From a news reporting and political standpoint, it takes us inside a hospital in the country and allows us to see how people are dealing with the difficult crisis.

From a cooking standpoint it introduces us to a classic Venezuelan food and shows us how it is made.

From a Steemit standpoint, posts like this add a lot to the community and make us feel like we are making the world a better place. Steemit is making the world a better place, but not all the benefits are so simple, immediate and clearly seen.

From an improvement standpoint there is still a lot of English grammar issues. For example, “flour bread” should be “wheat flour.” Or “I asked him how long ago he did not eat an arepa” should read “I asked him how long it has been since he had an arepa and he said that it has been a long time.”

Note: I used to teach English as a foreign language so I understand all the crazy grammar rules English has. I am sorry, -I didn’t write all the rules. And I do not want to discourage you from writing, but improvement is difficult if you don’t know where you are getting it wrong.

Overall, another great post that adds value to Steemit, and brings the world a little closer. Keep up the good work.

i know exactly what u mean with the grammar issues, i dont know a lot of english lenguage rules because i learned english playing video games online, talking with people since a very young age (7), i learned ,first, using the google translator and later i started to mememorizing the words so i dont needed to translate them after.

thanks you for commenting my post!

Tu inglés está muy mejor de mi español. Deberias estar orgulloso con tu mismo para comunicar este en un segunda idioma! Keep learning and keep up the good work. This is an inspiring use of this social media website!
