Summary

Do you want to develop the ultimate mindset to master a foreign language quickly, without memorizing lists of words and actually having fun while you do it?

Language learning is seen as something incredibly difficult, and most speakers of English are brought up with the idea that we English speakers just aren't good at learning languages. 

Many have tried and failed. We shudder when we think back to high school classes, textbooks full of verb tables, and long lists of words we were required to memorize.

But what if this isn't the true story?

What if you could easily learn a new language and have fun doing it?

What would you pay to be able to do that?

In this book, I pull back the curtain to reveal the mindset and methodology of a polyglot. This book will dispel the myths, lay the foundations of the correct mindset for success, and inspire you to commit to learning that language you've always wanted to master.

Here's what you will discover:

  • Why you think learning a language is difficult
  • How children learn languages so easily
  • How to go about learning a language
  • Five proven ways you can build your language knowledge
  • The best way to get vocab into your long-term memory
  • Why learning a language is actually fun. Sometimes rib-crackingly hysterical!
  • How to become aware of your language
  • How I learned Italian in one week!

In this book, Ryan will take you through his personal journey learning five different languages, reveal the methods and tricks he used, and set you firmly on a course to fluency.

If you want to shortcut the mental blocks, avoid rote learning altogether, and think like a polyglot from day one, then scroll up and click the "buy now" button right now!

I absolutely love this

I've always wished I'd been able to speak more languages. Growing up, it was simple to master the three most prevalent languages, but I was terrified of trying to learn new ones. This audiobook makes it much easier to comprehend what goes into learning a language. I'm glad there were examples in Spanish, and I hope to learn it soon. This audiobook will come in handy.

An approach to learning languages that must be heard!

Ryan really nails the language learning approach in this book. I can’t credit the knowledge the author proves enough!

He really goes into detail between the nuances of languages from a holistic perspective, of course once you learn the fundamentals of verbs, nouns, etc language learning can sometimes become very transferrable.

As a web developer, I found this book extremely easy to learn from as it applies emphasis to the transferrable foundation of language and enabling the learning process to go from there.

Very Informative

As a bilingual myself, learning a new language can still be tough, especially when you're old. There's a lot going on with your mind etc. But this book gave the best information that you can have when trying new things. Learning about this author's personal journey on hows and dos, it will be a easy. I like how Italian can be adapted easily and all that. Great content overall!

A way with more than just words!

I am very happy I stumbled across this book! I have been trying to learn Spanish for a while now and always come to the same crossroad and abandon learning. It was great to read Ryan's story and have a deeper understanding of utilizing my long-term memory. Learning a language isn't something that hard - if you persevere. I wish I had this book 15 years ago, I would be able to speak 3 languages by now!! Great listen.

Changed my mindset!

I listened to this audiobook as I am trying to learn Spanish. The book opened my mind and taught me how to think differently to comprehend another language as I am a native English speaker. Highly recommend!

Learn to Speak like a Native

Great discovery, I love the sound of other languages they seem exotic and mysterious sounds that you don’t hear in English-speaking countries. But now those myths and mysteries are dispelled by this book and learning other languages has become a joy. One I have wanted to master for some time now. The world is my oyster in terms of language I have learned in a very short time which is amazing because it has taken me years to get to grips with previously, But not anymore!

New ideas

I always wished I had learned more languages. It was easy to speak the 3 common ones while growing up, but I have been scared of trying to learn new ones. This audiobook makes understanding what’s involved in learning a language much simpler. Glad there were spanish examples and I hope to learn Spanish soon. I will keep this audiobook handy.
