401 - The 3 secrets of adult language learning with Elisa Polese


Listen Later

In this episode, I speak with Elisa Polese, a professional language teacher, coach, and author well-known for teaching multiple languages at once in the same classroom! To date, she has studied a staggering 25 languages, and teaches 13 of them, including Italian, German, English, Spanish, Russian, French, Dutch, Catalan, Portuguese, Greek, Hindi, Arabic, and Esperanto!

In our conversation, we discuss:

  • How she has managed to learn so many languages and how you can do the same!
  • Why she encourages language learners to speak from day one.
  • Elisa's 3 golden secrets to help adult language learners succeed.
  • We even get into an impromptu Russian lesson near the end, so stick around if you want to hear me try my hand at a new language!
