오 ~ 멋있네요!

I agree with the intro HARD haha : )

I think choosing content always comes down to choosing natural/native content that you 'want' to immerse in. The "compelling input hypothesis" if you will. I don't think n+1 or i+1 is too effective because it means you end up choosing level based content opposed to interest based content. This is just my belief!

I still do think you're right in that foreign language learners have to approach foreign like a baby if they want to get to the highest levels of fluency. That mindset is very important!

Great examples in the video by the way. I love the visual block staircase to show sentence building!!

Hope your channel goes well! Keep up the good work : )

Learn like a baby it's the only way to go, i agree 💯

I think there's far too much emphasis on output in low-level language learning. Compelling comprehensible input FTW! 🙂

I’ve been going about learning Korean like this and I think it’s been very helpful! I am on a language exchange app as well and I found some 아주마들 and they will send pictures of their kid/ baby books for me to read and help translate.

I have come to this same conclusion in my journey to learn Japanese and it has improved my rate of progress. When I thought about how babies learn language, I realized, there is no reading or writing, it’s only listening and speaking in context. So, although I did learn Hiragana and Katakana to aid in pronunciation, my focus shifted to listening and speaking and paying attention to grammar patterns as opposed to grammar rules. I soon realized I was improving more quickly than before. Since English is my first language and Japanese is really nothing like it, my progress is still slow but steady. The key for me now is consistency…1 hour or more every single day. At my current rate, I believe I can achieve some level of fluency in about 2 1/2 to 3 years. At that point, I will begin transitioning to reading and writing more and learning specific grammar rules. This is what it working for me and allowing me to stay engaged and encouraged in my journey. Thank you for your videos and advice!

I'll respond by another "must accept" to yours: you *must accept*, to put it in your words, that logic and biology do not mix. The brain (and even the command on sound production) of a 0-3 years-old is different from that of an adolescent or a grown-up. Very different. The same applies to mixing logic and psychology: The influence of past life has a very considerable influence on how each person with a certain amount of past life may learn languages. That is why the "learn like a baby" style experiments are mainly ineffective. That does not mean, of course, that any of the methods and systems designed for adult learning are any good! Study people with a story of successful learning lanfuages and you'll see that most did not follow a given recommended method -- they develop their own method that suits one given person.

My mother language is Ukrainian, now i'm learning English. Last time i learned English it was more 12 years ago, and it was a school level. I don't have anybody to improve my speaking skill, that's why i focus on grammar, listening and vocabulary. PLs tell me how to improve my English skill on my own?

Sweet Jesus. I tested into lvl 3 but was utterly lost. So I switched to lvl 1 where I was only mostly lost. The frustrating thing is seeing words I know I learned and even recently used and not remembering them.

[Reflektr]

Not to put too fine a point on it, but Isn't the usually recommended rate of known words in a text more like 85-95 percent rather than 70%? Would make sense if you strive to achieve flow.
I've subscribed though it had some incoherent logical jumps.
