Ser Vs. Estar, How to Choose When Speaking Spanish

There are entire books devoted to Ser and Estar. But through the years, I've figured out 3 simple rules that will cover you in 90% of the situations you encounter.

This isn't perfect, but it's better than memorizing some long list of rules you'll never remember.

Ser vs Estar has been a thorn in the side of Spanish students since the beginning of time...

But in today's video, I break it down to just 3 easy rules, then you give you a Practice Sheet to.... wait for it... PRACTICE!!!

For quick access to the rules:

Rule #1: 2:35 Temporary vs Permanent
Rule #2: 4:33 Location Uses Estar
Rule #3: 5:15 Profession Uses Ser

You can download a mobile/travel friendly video and the Practice Sheet (w/ Answer Key) here: https://spanishdude.com/quickies/ser-...
