I'm curious and delighted, that you would be willing to dive into this methodology! So far, I've been the only person I've known (lol) who would actively advocate for this style of language learning.
I'm German, too, so I can't help you there, but best of luck to you! For me it has always been incredibly difficult finding someone who would trust this method and be willing to try it out.
I've never heard of a language parent before! At first I thought you meant partner but you mentioned partner and parent later. Is that a thing? Can I finally have a father who says "I'm proud of you son ?" HAHAHA!
Nah kidding. I'd love to learn German and/or Finnish too and I'm like 3/4 of the way in HSK 1. Plus, you can never have too many language friends! :D
Edit: Aaaaaaaa it's from the TedTalk, cool! I love the idea!
Oh wow, you didn't have to copy all of that bro! Sorry about that, I did see it in the TedTalk haha. But thanks!
And yes language parents are basically like really good language partners. I've been finding language partners for almost 10 years. It's hard but worth it :)
Right now I'm improving my French and learning Russian, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean in-person, a ton of other languages on Duolingo, and I want more haha. You? You're welcome to PM me btw.
I just keep at it. I love the languages. I love learning. I hunger for it. Yeah it's mentally exhausting, but I live for it. Dunno if that's helpful but yeah.

The concept sounds really interesting. Do you think it is ok to “parent” somebody who cannot speak the language at all?
Btw, I’m a native speaker of mandarin. I want to learn German and I don’t know even one German word.
Hi, I’m 19m Chinese native and I’m interested in your exchange. The languages parent method is totally new for me but I’m willing to have a try.
Also, It’s a really impressive video :) Feel free to DM me if you’re interested.
