Loquidity - Invidious

Loquidity

Hello, my name is Stephan Schaffrath, a passionate life-long learner. Welcome to Loquidity, the YouTube channel about anything and everything that has to do with language and languages. As a native German speaker with degrees in psychology and English literature from American universities and decades of experience as an educator, I started this channel to share my own insights and to learn more about the many questions I have about how we communicate with one another. Most of my videos are how-to pieces on German as an additional language from an English language perspective. However, there is a broad range of topics to be covered, including the science of learning. Many videos will simply be about how to learn additional languages and improve on the ones you already know. There will be specific as well as general tips. There will be in-depth learning strategies. Do and don'ts. Whys and whynots.
