Customer Reviews
Awakens Pronunciation
Olly is inspiring me to take no prisoners when it comes to language learning. I’m through with my increasingly shrinking and pusillanimous approach. :))
Highly recommend Olly’s website and his guest blog post on pronunciation on Luca Lampariello’s website.
Great
I’m so glad I found this podcast. Some of the best advice on language learning. Started from episode 1 and working my way up, and have learnt so much already. Cheers Olly!
Excellent resource
As a passionate language learner I am always interested in what other language learners have to say. Olly is a wealth of information on countless language learning topics. I like that he talks about his successes and about what has not worked well. It is also refreshing that he discusses his own evolution in language learning; it is not static. I appreciate when he brings in others to have a discussion about language learning. I really liked his discussion with Lýdia Machová (a 5 part discussion). Keep them coming.
