https://bit.ly/freeslkit_inspiration Moses McCormick was a prolific language learner and YouTuber who passed away recently.
Incredibly, Moses spoke (to varying degrees) over 50 languages, and I wanted to pay tribute to him by making a video about how he learned languages - what drove him, and the techniques he used.
This wasn't an easy task, as Moses recorded 3,210 videos over his YouTube career. (This prolific activity gained him 1.2 million subscribers and over 180 million views.)
In other words, I had a lot of material to comb through! It would be impossible to sum up everything that Moses was about in just one video, but I tried my best, and I hope I did the task justice.
