Thank youWatch this if YOU want to learn GERMAN - Simple Advice | Tips | Resources | A1-C2Kyle Brandon2024-04-25 | In this video I share a plan on how to learn German. We all know that German is a difficult language but learning German doesn't have to be. In this video I'm going to give you a step by step guide split up into various stages of language learning that you can implement that will show you how to learn German without stressing over how hard the grammar is. With this plan you should enjoy learning and find it to be a fun experience where you can explore the language. If you wanted a video that tells you exactly what you need to know for each exam and focuses on what grammar points are important: THIS VIDEO IS NOT THAT. I learned German passively through the use of comprehensible input and that is what I want to share.

Thank youDoes Learning Another Language Prevent Alzheimers Disease? | Science Says Episode 7Kyle Brandon2024-02-07 | Did you know that over 55 million people suffer from Alzheimer's, with projections soaring to 140 million by 2050? In this video, I'll explore a fascinating question – can learning another language be a key to preventing Alzheimer's?
📈 Alarming Stats: As someone with a Master's in Neuroscience, I'll take you on a journey through the staggering statistics of Alzheimer's. Let's find out if delving into language learning could shield us from this devastating condition.
🔍 Scientific Insights: I introduce the concept of Cognitive Reserve, backed by studies like Daniela Perani's research on bilingualism's impact on brain reserve and metabolic connectivity in Alzheimer’s dementia. We'll uncover how bilingual brains are more efficient, showcasing robust connectivity and improved cognitive functions.
Let's break down the science together, understanding how neural activity and language learning contribute to two aspects of Cognitive Reserve - Neural Reserve and Neural Compensation. Bilingual brains, as we'll discover age better and we'll learn how this impacts Alzheimer's disease
❓ Inconclusive Data: While the data is inconclusive on whether language learning directly lowers AD risk, I'll shed light on the importance of considering other factors like cardiovascular health and social engagement. But there is GOOD NEWS!
🌐 Global Perspective: I'll highlight the changing landscape and emphasize the benefits of language learning in today's multicultural world. With the internet making language use more accessible, we contribute to expanded social networks, potentially reducing the risk of Alzheimer's.
🔍 Stay Informed: In this eye-opening video, I encourage you to consider the holistic approach - learn and use languages, stay fit and healthy, and the extra years of life by reducing your Alzheimer's risk. Don't miss out on the discussion and stay tuned for more fascinating insights on neuroscience and language!
👍 Like, Subscribe, and Explore: If you enjoyed this video, give it a thumbs up, subscribe for more engaging content, and explore my other videos. Join our community and stay informed on the intricate connections between neuroscience, language, and more. Until next time, bye bye!
📌 Important Note: As we wrap up, keep in mind that these studies focus on lifelong bilingualism, but early research suggests similar effects in older individuals learning languages. Stay tuned for more updates on this evolving topic!

Thank youThe Method You SHOULD be Using to Learn a New Language in 2024 | Comprehensible InputKyle Brandon2023-12-27 | Learning a new language in the new year is a resolution of many, however so many people don't succeed. Why? Most people don't know how to learn a new language. Or rather acquire a new language. They might remember the methods they used in school but when has what you learned in school ever really applied to the real world?
Whether you're starting or advancing in a language, this video aims to shed light on Comprehensible Input's significance and how LingQ can be a valuable tool in your language-learning arsenal.
Comprehensible input is a game-changer, it turns language learning into an adventure and exploration rather than a chore. You start knowing the language without ever considering what you're doing.

Thank youLanguage App BUT it uses the Input MethodKyle Brandon2022-04-08 | It's hard to stand out with videos like these because everyone claims they know the best language learning app. However, this is not like the others.
LingQ allows you to engage in interesting and useful content from the very beginning. It's for language learners who want a challenge, who love to figure out the language and discover it on their own, using content they love. LingQ is the new era of language learning, it is not for those who want to sit back and match words to pictures but its for the determined language learners who love the process.
Although LingQ can cater for all level learners it would be best if you have some background in the language before you dive in :) Just a recommendation
If you're not finding progress with other apps because you're bored or find the level system restricting and annoying then maybe LingQ is the perfect match for you and your language learning needs. Because everyone is different I recommend you sign up to LingQ with my link so you can avail of the free account for longer and see if you enjoy the app as much as i do :)

Thank youLingQ Tutorial: Importing (Teaching you how to use my favourite language learning app)Kyle Brandon2022-01-28 | In this video I will be discussing how to use the import feature on LingQ. I will be explaining how to import news articles, blog posts, podcasts, transcripts, Netflix shows, YouTube videos and ebooks.
To learn a language you need to expose yourself to as much of that language as possible - by being able to choose this exposure to be exactly what you want is one of the main reasons why LingQ is my favourite app to learn languages.
There are many different resources that you can use to increase you language learning to a more enjoyable, repeatable and learning intensive level.
Important Notes for this Video
1) Importing from LingQ (Articles) - There are many articles to choose from straight off the lingQ platform, however using the same method of the ling importer extension, any article you are able to read on the internet is a potential lesson on lingQ
2) Importing Podcasts / Blogs - As said above anything you can find available on the internet is a possible lesson, therefore keep an eye out for podcast transcripts that you can use and blog posts you're interesting in studying from
3) Importing Netflix shows - This is a useful option when you are looking to learn the common words in a new show (for example the first 1-2 episodes) however, because the lesson is disjointed from the show and you need to treat them separately I would recommend only studying the pilot episode and learn the vocabulary that will allow you to watch the rest of the series passively
4) Importing from Youtube - This is Hands-down the most useful feature. YouTube is a well of language content at your fingertips. You just need to know how to find the best videos for your purpose. As I mentioned you can go off peoples recommendations of good YouTubers for this purpose (I will make videos on this topic for the languages im focusing on as this is a huge part of my study routine), but another really good way is to tailor your learning to specific topics. E.g search a key word in your target language for a topic you're interested in, filter for subtitles and test around for accurately subtitled videos = gold mine for learning
5) Importing eBooks - ucl.ac.uk/slade/know/2979 This link will explain how to convert kindle books into EPUB needed for lingQ and also how to remove encryptions of the books so you can read them (there are other options that remove this step as I mentioned in the video however, this is not a recommendation only an option for you to choose if you wish ;) )

They are not the same and I will be explaining why studying might not be as important as you thought and how you might want to stop learning languages and start acquiring them!
When discussing the differences between language learning and language acquisition I will talk about how adults have two methods of developing their language skills and performance. I will tell you how these methods are used, what you should consider when language learning and even how to learn a language more effectively if you want to learn how to speak fluently in your target language. #languagelearning #languageacquisition

I have split up the year into quarters because I believe that in order to stick to your language goals having shorter time frames and in comparison smaller goals to accomplish it becomes easier to continue with them, easier to track your progress and therefore is much more enjoyable. Overall I think its important to set goals because to learn a language faster because you have something to strive towards. I will be discussing the tasks i have set for myself to complete in each of the languages and how I have prioritised both my languages and my goals for each of them.

Thank you so much :)A Language App that more people should be using!Kyle Brandon2021-03-15 | In this video I will be talking about what I believe to be the best app to learn languages so you don’t have to waste your time and can speed up your language learning to the next level.
Have you tried other language learning apps and felt like you got bored really quickly? Then you have come to the right video. In this video I will be talking about Lingq.
Lingq is the best app to learn languages if you’re looking to be able to explore the language and discover the language by reading and listening to interesting content. Lingq is based on the concept of “comprehensible input” and exposure to the language you are trying to learn. You are able to learn languages by reading and listening to content that you find interesting. This helps you to learn a language because it decreases the chance you get bored during your learning and thus allows you to constantly learn and learn and learn.
In this video I talk about 4 main points: Lingq is not a typical language learning app. It teaches you by allowing you to learn from content tailored to you and your interests. This language app allows you to turn the internet into your own personal lesson library. This is done through a chrome extension so you can study news articles and any other content you wish. It focuses on learning words and picking up the grammar and language structures through consistent exposure. But there is access to grammar explanations. Thus, this app teaches you grammar and vocabulary in a unique way.
All of these points above and my discussion about them in the video is why I believe Lingq, in the best app to learn languages.
