Confession 1: I’ve been watching a lot of the YouTube. Confession 2: It’s because I had no idea that you could learn basically everything on there. Like, I used to only go on YouTube to find videos for French class and it was a major ah-ha moment to realize that there’s all kinds of other …
Is this a post??? It is! I’ve set for myself a goal of posting once a week. #goals 2019 was hard. 2020 was harder. Lots of room for improvement here at the Language Makerspace Blog. On the day that everything started to get shut down in my county in California last March 12, I was …
