Simon, You might be a prime candidate for assisting in a dissertation that is being undertaken in relation to non-Welsh speaking parents sending children to Welsh schooling. I started a thread about it here:
There could be others posting here that might fit the bill too…don’t be shy!
Hello Sean. My daughter is actually going to an English speaking school, but will be studying Welsh throughout high school. Always happy to participate in academic studies though.
Wow, really impressed with the teaching method used to grasp the first sentence in Welsh. I followed the method as you instructed and it went in fairly quickly and stayed there. I am feeling very confident and excited about learning some more. I moved to Wales over a year ago and would like to converse in Welsh with my friends and neighbours. Thank you for getting me on my way 
.
Sounds as though you’ve done brilliantly, Angela - well done! 
Hi AnnaC,
Many thanks; I am on challenge 2, but I am not quite sure where ti start with the 5 minute test - do I need to learn more first? How does it work? Diolch yn fawr,
Edmund.
Hi Edmund,
The instructions for the 5 minute test are here
I’m not sure at what point in the Challenges you’ve learned all the structures you need. I’m guessing at least halfway through Level 1? But it would be great for you to start practicing making up sentences with whatever you do know, and by the time you’re ready for the 5 minute challenge, there’ll be no stopping you 
O my goodness… A neighbour, Mark told me about this fabulous app… I started yesterday. I was rubbish at French & no better at Spanish at school… It was all the verbs that stressed me out. Welsh seems easier in comparison … although hard to get my tongue around the sounds… I’m loving it. I’m 50, just moved to North Wales & have no plans to EVER move away so thought trying to learn the language would be a terrific way to feel a part of this wonderful place.
Welcome, Tina!
For my experience - compared to French, Italian (and I’ve never studied Spanish, but doesn’t seem much different)…Welsh for verbs is the language you’ve always dreamt of! 
Also, the SSiW approach makes learning much smoother anyway, as you may have noticed already!
Croeso/ welcome and enjoy learning. Your brain will melt… But it comes back together with Cymraeg reinforcements…
A warm welcome to the forum (and to Wales!)… 
Welcome, @tina-jane! The SSiW method makes learning fun - I’m still having a blast 4 years later and I don’t even live in Wales! Enjoy the Challenges and come ask questions anytime. We’re a friendly bunch and we love to hear how people are doing!
Pryhawn da, Suzie dw i. I am moving to Wales in April and I’m really looking forward to learning how to speak Welsh so that I can fully intergrate into the community. I found SSI Welsh via the facebook group members of Blaenau Ffestiniog. They are very encouraging and helpful. Ive been trying to learn on my own at home for an hour a day but am pleased to find this site, i think it’s going to help me a lot. Diolch yn fawr!
Helo Suzie and croeso / welcome here.
You’ve come to the right place if you want to learn how to speak Welsh “in the wild”. Please come to the forum whenever you need help / advice / tips or just if you want to tell us about your progress. We’re always here to help and to celebrate triumphs. 
Helo Brigitte, diolch for the croeso! I’ll enjoy using the site and i’ll certainly ask for help when I get a bit stuck. Diolch!
Welcome, Suzie! Glad you found us!
How exciting!
We are pleased too, and shall try our best
Diolch yn fawr to everyone. I’m on day 4 and …
Dw i isio dysgu siarad Cymraeg achos dw i caru Cymru a dw i isio yr iaith Gymru(?) parhau.
A very warm welcome to the forum, Suzie - and what a flying start you’re off to!
I’m thinking of doing the 6 minutes a day course but I’m concerned that I might be a little bit slow in getting through all the content each week. I’ll probably be OK but my old brain isn’t as sharp as it used to be.
Hello @christine-rathbone
Welcome! A lot of us here are not exactly in the first flush of youth. We may not be as fast as we once were, but we get on well and have a lot of fun. I suggest that you go for it!
Sue
