We don’t need a degree to learn to speak a foreign language, I think we all agree here about this.
But Christophe Clugston criticizes all the time people without degrees, saying that they understand nothing about linguistics and, therefore, can not learn a foreign language correctly.
This is the kind of opinions that a real linguist (academic definition) can not have !
I think it would be funny to know that this “strange” man has no degree himself…
