Charles Yung on 13 May 20This article talks about how people will be affected by the Coronavirus linguistically. It reasons that now people are staying at home, their home languages can be better preserved. The article also mentions that online teaching is not as effective as interpersonal teaching because young students won't be learning kinesthetically and will only be learning passively through a screen. This holds true for me, as certain topics are better explained to me in a classroom setting.
