Alex asks: "How should one go about gathering together language learning materials when there are none?"
In this episode:
Here are my suggestions for finding materials for minority languages:
- Reach out to people who have learnt the language before - there will be more than you think. Use Google to search for people, groups and blogs
- Even if there is little material, use what you can find. You can get far with little.
- Go to the country. Not always practical, but the best thing you could possibly do.
- Create your own materials by contacting native speakers and/or travelling to the country. This is a fantastic project and a great service to the community.
