Very informative and useful. I have acquired much new knowledge pertinent to neurolinguistics
It led me to a whole new world to see bilingualism from different point of view. It explained ideas that I had before scientifically.
This course provide us with various aspects of how brain and mind works and how we can use these knowledge for studying different languages
Very interesting and informative. Many aspects make you think of language, the mind, and the brain in a different way. I enjoyed it quite a bit.
