“You need to live in a foreign country to learn the language.”

“ Immersion is the only way to learn.”

Do these phrases sound familiar ? Having to live in a country to learn its local language is, hands down, the biggest myth in language learning.

That’s why today we’ve invited Keith Brooks, the author of "Pardon My Norwegian", to share his story learning Norwegian and immersing himself in the language while living in Kentucky.

How do you learn a language in your home country? What does immersion really mean? What mindset is needed to succeed? Listen to keith's story and you'll learn how to succeed while making the process enjoyable.

In this episode of the podcast we discuss:

The beginner phase of the learning process and how to make the best of it
What immersion really means
The successful language learner mindset
How to stop using English as a crutch
How to start immersing yourself in a language
What you need to to guarantee success.
