This week, I started taking Spanish classes, and as you can imagine, I have a LOT of thoughts. It’s been a while since I was a student, and being on the receiving end of a class has taught me so much about how important pronunciation, mindset, and strategy are when learning a second language.
Here’s the vocabulary method I developed and am now using to learn and remember new words and grammar structures: https://bit.ly/4ammPFf -

I always get inspired by Hadar. It’s like listening to a psychologist and take advice from her in advance, even before you ask your question. You definitely know what your listeners need. I enjoy absorbing the knowledge you provide. Idk how, but you find special materials and tips. I reckon that you are a well-qualified trainer and a great professional.
The best podcast about English learning ever!
Hi Hadar! I want to tell you thank you so so so much for this incredible podcast! I like the diversity that we have here, because as a result we have a holistic approach to language learning! I like that you are speaking about pronunciation of different words, intonation, learning strategies, but also about so many things that are extremely important, but barely discussed such as confidence, mindset, native speakerism, compound effect, soreness and pain that language learners may experience speaking a foreign language! Thank you so much for all your hard work! I like your voice! You are an outstanding English teacher!!!
