Interview with Steve Kaufmann, one of YouTube’s most famous polyglots and co-founder of LingQ, an online platform offering language-learning courses in 14 languages.

Steve has learnt around 20 (yes, 20!!!) languages in his life. Find out more about his background, how he came to learn French and, more importantly, about his method to learn a new language.

This interview is a must-listen for every language student. It was fascinating to discuss language learning with Steve and compare our approaches. I hope you’ll get great tips out of it as well as a motivation boost
