What's this?

A little reflection daily about my language acquisition

236

I’ve created several short on-the-spot videos. It’s a good approach. I cannot over-think, and the end result is certainly natural. 

But there’s the rub: I can’t multi-task well. I mean that I cannot think at the same time I’m speaking. My eyes track all over the place, and my face contorts. My mind is literally a blank while I’m communicating orally, whereas thinking on the fly is no problem here-end-now as I type.


Perhaps it’s practice. Perhaps when I’ve clocked up 236 episodes in front of the camera I’ll be as good, or better, than I am behind the keyboard.
