Customer Reviews
Good content
Great way of looking forward to learn and to share knowledge .
Walks the walk
The great thing about Steve is that has spent a lifetime learning what works. Everything he talks about he has actually tried or accomplished. Also his ideas are completely accessible regardless of where you are in your language journey.
Kaufmann is the BEST
Seriously, start here if you’re learning how to teach yourself to learn a language. This man walks the talk and has a way of breaking down the techniques he’s used (inspired by the other godfather of LL - Dr Krashen) in a way anyone can understand and then apply in their own life. I’ve been on my immersion journey in French since 2019 and Steve’s videos have always been by my side. Merci beaucoup, Steve!
