The individual skills taught include the importance of language learning, exploring various languages such as French, Latin, Hebrew, and Arabic, and overcoming obstacles in learning languages. The teaching method involves storytelling and personal experiences shared by the student. This course is intended for language enthusiasts, students interested in linguistics, and anyone curious about the cultural aspects of language learning.
