0:00 We need to let kids choose the language they want to learn in schools.
3:22 Don't feel pressured to learn a heritage language.
4:18 The best language to learn is the language you are most motivated to learn.
6:43 Considering the writing system of a new language.
9:11 Usefulness + interest = the best chance of success at learning the language.
Factors that influence our choice in languages to learn include how easy it seems, how useful it seems and our interest in the language. It is the last one, interest, that I find the most motivating.
