I've tried something different with this video, I usually make gaming/gaming-related videos but for the sake of my sanity I decided to try something different, I'm very biased with this video so I can't see my flaws.. so any feedback about the video would help a lot, is there something that puts you off? Is it understandable? Would you watch till the end?

just a little rant about language and fluency, i'm not a linguist so criticize if i'm wrong!

I think your intro/hook needs a lot of work. This is the general structure I, and a lot of creators use.

#

Context Lean (super clear what the video is about, topic clarity)

  • Establish Common Ground, or
  • Reference a benefit or pain point, or
  • Use a metaphor to simplify a complex idea, or
  • Share Something mind-blowingly interesting
    **Scroll Step Interjection **
  • Contrasting Word (but, however, yet, therefore, on the other hand, although)
    Contrarian Snapback (Uno Reverse Card)
  • Sentence that goes in the opposite direction of the initial context lean.
  • Bigger the shock/snap the better.

"Everyone dreams of being perfectly fluent in a second language - sounding just like a native speaker... But true native-level fluency is a myth - even after 20 years abroad, you'll still have an accent or a word you wont know."

#

something like that might help you out
