Ted Talks and other Video Lectures

Does anyone here on italki use Ted Talks for learning English? To learn Chinese I've been watching 《罗辑思维》and have found that it helps my listening comprehension a lot. Are there any other video lecture series that you have used for learning either English or Chinese?

I've watched TED for two month and found it very useful. I can pick up theme related for my interests. Clips are short like an optimal quant of information that your brain could easily digest.

我在中国的社交网站上看到有不少人指出《逻辑思维》这个节目在历史、技术、科学和逻辑方面犯的一些低级错误。这个节目在专业人士那里的得分是比较低的。如果想借由这个节目了解中国,那可能不是个好选择。想通过汉语节目学中文的话我推荐《非诚勿扰》。这个节目很生活化。不过我想你可能已经知道这个节目了吧。

Alt.Latino.
