As Sue, Bernie and Aline say, video makes the lessons more personal and interactive, and I also I agree with the point that Alison makes that video / audio can provide authentic listening material and a range of accents and can support learning e.g. with the use of embedded questions.
I think I remember reading (in week 1?) that we engage more and retain more info if we hear it rather than read it? (I could be misremembering this though…)
I also agree with Sue about how stressful it is making videos – hats off to you for doing it anyway. It’s too late here for making videos!
