#243 Should You Learn from Non-Native Speakers?

The Level Up English Podcast - A podcast by Michael Lavers - Wednesdays

Categories:

I get comments occasionally from people who say “I want to be like a native speaker” and “I don’t want to learn from non-native speakers. In this episode, I'll argue the benefits of learning from non-native speakers as well as natives, and not closing yourself off from learning. The main thesis here is to stay open-minded in language learning and I explore some reasons why.I cover some ways in which non-native speakers might be preferable to native speakers, and even when they're not, the things you can learn from them.I hope you find this episode valuable.
