    Emulating immersion is surely the best way to go, some people even claim listening to Chinese while they sleep makes them more efficient when it comes to long term word retention! Crazy!

    It worked for me when I had to learn medical terms (in 3 languages). It was just vocabulary though. But the main point is that YOU HAVE TO STUDY THE WORDS ACTIVELY first.

    @@elainer8288 A lot of the core themes of what he says such as "enjoy the process, the process IS the reward", the idea of"just do it" (make mistakes and dont be afraid to speak, just go for it as you need to failure is a vital part of the learning process) and inputting masses of data from different perspectives instead of "mastering" one perspective are all very important wider skills that can be transferred from language learning to general life. I can attest first-hand how these mindset shifts (partially encouraged by Steve's videos) have drastically improved my quality of life

    in brief: The video is a documentation of the narrator's experiment of following Steve Kaufmann’s daily routine to learn languages faster.

    In my opinion, having already learned english to fluency, traditional learning methods are very useful, but absolutely not necessary. I learnt most of the english language from the internet. I believe studying certain grammar points once in a while is really helpful.

    “I don’t know what’s up with Spanish people but they talk REALLY fast.” Truer words have never been uttered 😂 I highly recommend you give audiobooks in Spanish a try, they’re slower and clearer and a really great way to immerse (in any language really 😂)

    @@desativado-oficial But of course, my original point is that just because someone follows in the foot steps of a polyglots, this is not likely to turn this person into one, unless this person is a rare person. Possibly a lot less than 1% of people in the Western World can speak five or more languages. So ask yourself a common sense question. If it were easy to become one, we'd all be one.
