It looks like you are doing well
In English I will often say a phrase along the lines of...

It looks like you are doing well
OR
You appear to be doing well


Is there a Spanish equivalent? I've tried directly translating both variations of the phrase but it doesn't seem correct. Thanks for your help!

Hello.

This is my attempt in Spanish.

Parece que lo estas haciendo bién.

That is my humble opinion.

I agree with CrOtALiTo's humble opinion.

My unpretentious view () is that you could also say,

Parece que no lo estás haciendo mal.
Parece que te va bien.
Pareces ir bien.

And there are probably other ways... but "parece que se te da bien" or similar would work.
