Wow, this is such high-value information. Thank you so much. ONE CAVEAT- iTalki is TERRIBLE -please stop recommending it. They argued with me about $300 worth of internal staff time to refuse to give me a $6.99 refund on a trial lesson that didn't work that was their technology's fault and that the teacher made zero attempt to help me resolve, plus they have NO visibility to get to any of your sesison experience to help you when there's an issue and they spam you constantly with BS in your platform inbox but give you NO way to contact them through the portal at all. They are why I have had to start over on looking for a tutor elsewhere, and the other sites I've found that have collections of teachers are either insanely expensive ($50/remote class? no thanks) or have equally shitty technology issues as iTalki has. So DON'T use or recommend iTalki. All that said, this makes my whole year. After blowing so much time banging my head against a wall trying to get through the technology ghetto that is every single French teaching tutor match platform I've tried, and TH-cam repeatedly refusing to take my money for the Premium plan, this video is the first thing that HASN'T interrupted my learning process this week. I'm so grateful for your curation of this and your insights. I don't even know how to express the degree of how great this is. Thank you so much!

The moment you said heritage language I couldn't help thinking your experience isn't goin to match mine.

I've been following your study plans through A2 for the last few months, thank you so much! Bummer to find that the 203 section of NThuleen is a different look and does not have the syllabus? I don't know if you encountered that as well, or if you have tips on which grammar points I should learn in lieu of NThuleen 203. Thank you!

0:00 Intro 0:40 my thoughts on dabbling 2:16 what would you have been career-wise 3:03 do you hold yourself to a higher standard for language learning than others? 4:33 fluent in 100 lesser known languages vs 10 well known languages? 5:18 how do you feel about those who learn only one other language to a high level? 6:24 why did you become a youtuber? 7:26 what languages would you teach your kids? 8:09 how do you feel dating across languages/cultures? 8:40 what are your plans for next year?

This video is brilliant and it doesn’t have enough views.

Great review.

If you want to make it diffcult start with grammer. I am native arabic and still struggle with it..

Thanks I want to learn French Am so interested ❤

Your insights make me feel more motivated and less alone in my own language journey. Thank you for being so real!♥

Thank you for sharing this.

You provide so much information that I do wish you didn't speak so incredibly quickly. Surely I'm not the only person who wants to make notes of the sources and resources you recommend.

These last videos are very low. Cannot hear them. What changed? The videos on your couch are very low even with my volume up, but the videos in previous years are louder. Please check this. Would love to listen but can't hear them.

Meri beaucoup

I want to become fluent in German but I don’t know how

I wish I can give you 1 million thumbs up

Thank you so much for the advice. Got that "Syrian-Arabic" book as a pdf-file right now. It looks pretty useful, especially that section on "classroom-phrases". That was exactly what I was looking for. ❤❤❤

I really tried to understand, but I'm not sure I got the point correctly: Is your struggle partially related to not using the languages you're learning as much as you used to? Also, I wonder what your thoughts are on this: I feel like learning a language is more of a medium than an ultimate goal. There are ups and downs, and when you don't use a language for a while, you start to forget parts of it, but it eventually comes back. The ultimate goal isn’t the learning process itself, but rather the opportunities that using the language opens up once you've mastered it to a certain level. So, I’m really curious if you’ve ever thought about shifting your content from focusing on the learning process and reflection on it to something else. Sorry if my comment seems a bit messy-I just let my thoughts flow here :)

Hi, Can you send the link to the free University of Montreal course? I searched the website but was unable to find it.

Hello. I am from Spain and I have a question for you all? Is it easy for u to learn México spanish better than the spain one? Regarding pronunciation maybe of “c” “z” and other letters?

I am honestly so hesitant to go on Hellotalk or apps like that, I for sure did not found any good learning partners there. 🥲

To be at B2 in a language is very good. Normally at that point the individual retains a high amount even without using the language regularly.

I've been learning French for a few months and still an A1. Hopefully some of these recourses could help me progress to A2

I speak some Italian, but I need to improve it. I have been looking for something good. As others have said, your resources are amazing. Thank you a lot.

I've been studying Italian for the past 4 months and I'm almost done with all 5 units of Pimsleur. I feel that I am terrible and can't even have a conversation. I haven't missed a day in 5 months, and I am terrible. It's so heartbreaking, lolol.

Pls sorry can i also get the diploma if i complete the A1 and A2 program online

I’m finally fluent in Spanish but when I finally made a video in Spanish my mind kept going blank. I couldn’t believe it 😱🙏

Sorry about the difficult transition, but I hope this signals a fresh new start! Say hi to a llama for me!

appreciate the video

LOved this. I can relate to everything. I have been in korea, a year now, still feel i am terrible with the language, it has affected my mental and physical health. Im going back to the us in 5 months. I need it for my recharging. Just know that you are not alone with the emotions.

You are precious. You are human. We all are and need to be human, feel emotions, feel overwhelmed... This is how life is all about. Let us allow life transitions without feeling guilty. You are amazing and honest. Thank you for posting this video. We love you.

This was so interesting and inspiring to listen to, I definitely understand & relate to a lot of these things. Hope you enjoy Peru and feel refreshed in your experiences and languages+content ❤

Sometimes if we cannot live our languages actively, we need to remember that they still live within us! As long as you stay true to yourself, it's all good!

I appreciate your honesty with the real things language learners go through. I hope you have a great time in Peru. I bet it will be so exciting to get back out there. I hope you have a great trip!!!

You are SO AMAZING. You should be proud of yourself for prioritizing yourself and what your soul needs ❤️✨

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD, this is actually gold. When they say "You want it on a silver platter" you took it literally, this video is just amazing. Thank you!

Hey, sorry, but could you use the Istanbul series on your own without needing a translator or tutor, if it is immersive?

Biggest disadvantage that I see about this course it's the high price

So lovely accent sister well done but keep it up
