Hi! I am a native English speaker. I am learning Spanish. Any feedback/advice from Spanish speakers would be great! I struggle a lot with when to use what word (yo soy / soy / estoy).

Hi, my name is Astrid, I’m from Colombia, but I live in Montreal. I’m Spanish teacher at high school but I would like to learn English. If you want you, we can practice English and Spanish. You are going to use ser for nationalities, identifying, time (but not with nosotros and the preposition a in the same phrase), religion, color, form, profession, prix, possession, origen, characteristic permanent, material. And you’re going to use estar with state - condition, características non permanent, date (with pronoun nosotros and the preposition a), gerundive (I’m working), location, position.

¡Hola! Great to hear you’re learning Spanish! For “yo soy” and “soy,” remember “yo” emphasizes “I,” but “soy” alone is often enough. Use “ser” (soy) for permanent traits and “estar” (estoy) for temporary states or locations. Keep practicing—you’ll get it
