About this video
Hi everyone! In this video Iâll share my process of learning coding for computational linguistics. At the time, I was learning how to code with the purpose to become a developer. But many of the things that I learned turned out to be useful for the computational linguist job that I had for a year. This video is an attempt to summarize my learning experience relevant for the computational linguistics.
In my videos, I regularly share tips and tricks for learning foreign languages, especially English and French, as I am speaking and learning these languages. I also document my journey of transitioning from linguistics to software development and share the lessons I've learned while job searching and learning how to code.
