Hi all.
I made a second attempt at speaking Dutch on Youtube. I'd be glad to read what people think :-D

I apologize for saying this, but I think your accent was better in the first one. :)
Kinda blown away by your continuous optimism and cheerfulness in your videos, though.

I won’t comment about your accent because it is quite good and I don’t have clue about what kind of advice might help you. I hope you find the following useful.
"Ik heb een paar woorden gezien van mensen op de how to learn any language forum die een beetje over m’n Nederlandse accent hebben gepraten."
It is ‘het forum’ and you should say ‘gepraat’ or ‘gesproken’
"Ik wil vanavond praten over de manier om je een taal kunt leren."
Waarop je een taal kunt leren.
"Ik wil zeggen dat ik heb Nederlands niet gedaan op school."
The word order is incorrect. Dutch has a SOV order in the relative clause thus the correct order is ‘dat ik Nederlands niet gedaan heb op school’. You may switch the order of ‘gedaan heb’ to ‘heb gedaan’.
"Ik hou helemaal van Jensen."
This is a strange use of ‘helemaal’. I only use it negatively: ‘ik hou helemaal niet van Jensen’. If you want to express that you like every part of him you can say ‘Ik vind alles van Jensen leuk’.
"Andere Nederlandse uitzendingen."
You like Programma’s . Uitzending is more like an episode.
"Ik heb mijn eigen filosofie over hoe je een taal mag leren."
You can’t use this modal verb in this way. You have to use ‘kan’ of 'kunt'.
Volgens mij moet je proberen te praten . Als je een kleine woordenschat hebt is dat geen probleem.
I think you were struggling here to link these two sentences togehter. I guess you wanted to say something like: you must try to talk even if you have a small vocabulary. If you wanted to say that you can use ‘zelfs als je een kleine woordenschat hebt’
"Als je dat met andere woorden zegt dan de natieven kunnen informatie geven over hoe je dat beter mag zeggen."
Natieven is not a Dutch word. I would say moedertaalspreker. You also didn’t use inversion ‘kunnen de moedertaalsprekers’ and I already talked about the verb ‘mogen’.
"Dat is waar met alle talen."
I would use voor or bij. You use met to give additional information. ‘dat is waar’ doesn’t make sense on its own ‘met’ is therefore inappropriate here.

Thanks nimchimpsky for taking the time to write such a detailed reply.
I shall certainly look at those errors. It is hard to get the word order right when speaking spontaneously!

woodenshoes, I might be mistaken, but I think it should be 'Ik ben Nederlands ook aan het leren' or 'Ik leer ook Nederlands'.
