Customer Reviews
Excellent resource for learning how to learn a language
The methods I’ve learned from Olly have been invaluable for my language learning journey. I’ve also taken several of his online courses and they are excellent.
Always interesting
I am on episode 86, and I have learned something new from each episode. Great motivator for language learning!
Entertaining & Motivating!
This is one of my favorite podcasts! Any time I’m starting to lose language learning motivation, listening to a few of these episodes always brings it right back. There’s so many good learning tips and I love hearing from all the guest speakers!
