Just memorize vocab? What’s the most effective thing to focus on when you only have a very short amount of time before being thrown into the deep end?!"

Tue, 24 Aug 2021 - 13min - 427 - 415 - Can you get fluent just by reading?
If you've listened to this podcast or watched some of my videos, you may be thinking to yourself: "Wait a minute... Olly's method seems to be ALL ABOUT READING! What about listening and speaking? Does this guy think you can get fluent by reading alone?!" In this episode of the podcast (originally published on my YouTube channel), I answer this exact question.
Note: I refer to a simple graph in the episode that I drew out on a white board in the original video. It's a very basic graphic and you should be able to understand what I'm explaining from audio alone. However, if you want to see the graph for more context, go to 3:46 in the video here:

Tue, 17 Aug 2021 - 11min - 426 - 414 - How this Mormon Missionary Learned AMAZING Korean
Imagine that you got a letter in the post announcing that you will be put on a plane to Korea in just 9 weeks, where you will stand on a street corner and talk to strangers about your faith IN KOREAN. Add to this the fact that you don't yet speak a single word in the language!
That is precisely what Derek Driggs experienced when he trained to be a Mormon (LDS) missionary at the Missionary Training Center (MTC) in Provo, Utah, before being sent to live in Korea for 2 years back in 2012. In this episode of the podcast, my colleague John Fotheringham interviews Derek about his experience learning Korean and what lessons you can apply in your own language learning adventures.
Note: All commentary in the video is about language learning, NOT religion. Also, please note that though Derek was formerly an instructor at the Provo Missionary Training Center following his time in Korea, he is not an official representative or spokesperson for the MTC or LDS church.

Tue, 13 Jul 2021 - 15min - 421 - 409 - How To Learn a Language by Watching TV With Ethan Wanger
Ethan Wanger is an English teacher, world traveler, and the co-founder and Chief Marketing Officer of RealLife English, a popular site, YouTube channel, podcast, course, and app which helps people learn English through popular TV series. He has lived in Germany, Poland, Brazil, Thailand, and Chile, and is currently based in Barcelona. In his words, Ethan's mission in life is to "diminish cultural and language barriers that separate us by creating a world beyond borders through English."
As you know, I'm a big believer in learning languages through stories, and I think that TV shows—if done right—can be a fun way to do that. But just sitting back on the couch and watching Netflix is not going to get you very far. So I am excited to pick Ethan's brain on how you can get the most out of video-based learning and make more rapid progress toward your fluency goals.Free Download: StoryLearning Kit

Tue, 22 Jun 2021 - 12min - 418 - 407 - Two polyglots geek out on teaching methods (with Lukas Van Vyve)
Lukas van Vyve is the founder of Effortless Conversations and the co-founder of Spring Spanish, a new site and YouTube channel that uses the power of "Conversation Based Chunking" to help you get fluent faster.
In our conversation, we talk about:
What it's like to grow up in a country where 3 languages are spoken (Hint: it's notwhat you think!). Why Lukas can get in the car, drive 45 minutes in a certain direction, and not understand anything people say when he arrives. Why many polyglots learned languages oneway, but now teachthem in a completely different way. The benefits of using "chunking" to learn languages and how it can go hand in hand with story-based learning.Free Download: Rules of Language Learning

Tue, 15 Jun 2021 - 53min - 417 - 406 - How Aletta Mazlin built storytelling websites for language learners
Like me, Aletta Mazlin is a big believer in learning languages through stories. Her passion for story-telling has led to the creation of a number of fantastic language learning resources, including The French Experiment, The Italian Experiment, The Spanish Experiment, and The German Project.
Her latest project is called The Fable Cottage, a delightful site which shares bilingual tales for language learners in English, French, Italian, Spanish, and German.
In our conversation, we dive into why Aletta thinks stories are so effective for learning languages and how learners can get the most out of story-based learning.

Tue, 25 May 2021 - 30min - 413 - 403 - Is this the smartest way to learn German? With Michael Schmitz
In this episode, I speak with Michael Schmitz, the man behind the site Smarter German and the author of How to Learn German Faster. He holds a master's degree in German as a Foreign Language, and has been teaching the language all the way back to 1999. After teaching in traditional language schools for many years, Michael grew increasingly frustrated with the mainstream approach to teaching languages and decided to branch out on his own and begin teaching German in a more effective way.
In the conversation, we discuss:
The benefits of learning German through engaging stories (e.g. murder mysteries). Why learning German in Germanis so inefficient (and the approach Michael recommends instead). The most common struggles English-speakers have when learning German (and how to overcome them).Do You Have A Question?

Fri, 24 Apr 2020 - 21min - 366 - 359: Matt vs Japan talks hardcore language learning
In This Episode:
When I first discovered the world of online language learning, I spent hours watching videos from different polyglots online. It was amazing to finally find others who shared a passion for languages like me.
Over the years though, I watched less and less of this stuff. I guess there comes a point where you’ve heard it all before.
Recently, though, there’s a guy who I’ve been paying close attention to. He’s young, but very articulate, and has developed an impressively complete view of language learning:
Matt vs Japan is all about Japanese, but I wanted to talk to him about language learning in general, and so I sat him down and plied him with questions.
This is one of the best interviews I’ve done for a while, so I hope you enjoy. Follow Matt here:

Fri, 04 Oct 2019 - 10min - 346 - 341: My teachers just don't get it...
Phil asks a really tricky question: "I am feeling extremely frustrated with the Chinese teachers I've found on there. They don't seem to understand that I want to practice speaking. They all seem to insist on trying to go over grammar rules, shovel loads of new vocabulary on me, etc when all I want to do is practice some of the things I've already learned. When I try to tell the this, then they just randomly talk about whether I like spicy food or have kids. No structure. I've suggested a course book that we just use as a framework for speaking for each half hour based on the topic/vocab, but that hasn't worked either. I've literally tried 15 teachers. So my question is: what am I doing wrong? Do you understand what I want? If so, how could I go about getting that from a teacher. I am at an elementary/low intermediate level by the way."

Andrew asks: "I'm learning Lao. Is there a benefit to daily journaling?"
In This Episode:
Writing in your target language is a fantastic activity, especially if it appeals to you! Here are some of the benefits:
Review and consolidate what you've been learning Experiment with grammar and pose questions to yourself (which can get answered) Throws up new vocabulary that you'll have to look up Exposes your "interlanguage" Gives your teacher something to work with Provides evidence of progress Can match your learning style, thereby enhancing learningOne of the most important things about writing is, after you get feedback, to go and act on that feedback. It's too easy to not learn the lessons from teacher feedback.
