  • This was really helpful, I have been thinking of using xtranormal in my language learning but was unsure. Now I can place it as a tool within a larger context of language learning.

    Thanks

  • @maolaowai Thanky, that's really kind. I'm glad that even after two years this video proves to be helpful!

  • Would it not be much simpler and more effective if you just teach each other in person?

    Sounds like a technology desperate to invent a need, sorta the sociometric version of corn syrup

  • Of course teaching face to face is more effective. However, this video is about how students beginning to learn a new language can use xtranormal to practise dialogues. So your comment is not quite valid here. On the whole I agree with you though. Teaching is always best in a social environment. Sometimes this envrionment can be online.
