In their conversation, they delve into Sal's language learning history, his breakthrough in using immersion-based strategies, and the significance of community, accountability, and support for people on their learning journeys.

Today Clayton is joined by Bart! He and Clayton go way back, and they chat a lot about Bart's experiences as a high-level language learner living in Poland. Bart goes into the details of why he feels that he learned more playing video games and watching Cartoon Network than he did out of English class.

Bart's experiences highlight the importance of immersing in engaging content when language learning, proving that learning can happen outside the traditional classroom setting.

This week Clayton is chatting with Gabriele, an Italian polyglot who teaches ancient Egyptian and Sumerian here on YouTube! In addition to his YouTube channel, he's a passionate language learner and a very active member of the online language community.

Tune in as he chats with Clayton about his studies in university, translating, and more!

Ok, you caught us. You can't learn a language in 6 weeks, but there's a reason LDS Missionaries are well-known for their language abilities.

Today, Clayton is joined by McKAY, an LDS Missionary Training Center (MTC) graduate who learned Tagalog. At the MTC, he intensively studied Tagalog for 6 weeks and then continued to study it for 2+ hours a day once he moved to the country.

Tune in as they chat about what it was like going to the MTC, what makes Tagalog such an amazing language, and the role that language learning had in their lives!

This week on the Refold Podcast we're introducing you to one of our favorite Refold community members, Skypon! He's an Italian Refold Community admin, polyglot, and heritage speaker of both Spanish and Icelandic!

We really enjoyed chatting with Skypon this week and we hope you find the conversation as enlightening as we did!
