Hi! I'm a native English speaker, so this post isn't for me to study, but instead to help anyone reading this who might be! I've linked some of my favorite YouTube channels that are focused on the topic of language learning. All of these channels are in English, so would be good listening practice, but also talk about language learning, so I find them motivating and inspiring!

My favorite is probably Ari no Yume, who is fluent in French and English, and is very advanced in Japanese, lower intermediate in Mandarin, and a beginner in Russian. She posts a variety of content, mostly weekly vlogs about language learning. She also has a very adorable cat, which is very important to me.

I also like Zoe.Languages, who is a polyglot who's native language is Mandarin. She also speaks English, French, German, Arabic, Turkish, and Persian. She posts a lot of videos about how to best learn a language, as well as overviews of languages she knows.

Tanya Benavente hasn't posted in awhile, but her videos are very useful as well. Her primary language focus is on Greek, Italian, and Spanish. I really like her video on her language planner, and it inspired me to make my own!

A very small channel, Potatoglot, is another one I recommend. They post a variety of videos, mostly on the shorter side, that are mostly Japanese and Korean, though they're learning several other languages.

Also, here are a few channels that don't talk about language learning, but I still really enjoy and think might be good listening practice.

Chinese Cooking Demystified is a cooking channel that is both beginner friendly and good for more advanced home cooks, that teaches you how to cook Chinese food. I recommend this channel no matter what your cooking skill level is.

Brandon Acker plays beautiful historical music on a variety of instruments. I'm putting his channel here because he also has a lot of videos about being a musician and historical music especially. This is one of my favorite songs, as well as this one. I also recommend this video he did with another person, so it's on a different channel-- it's about the history of the guitar.

8-bit Music Theory makes videos about music in video games, but goes into a lot of detail. I only recommend this channel if you already know at least some music theory vocabulary in English, because his videos can get complicated, but I really like the way he describes things.

I hope these YouTube channels help you study!
