If you're learning a language and feel frustrated about a grammar point, a letter that's hard to pronounce, or even just a general lack of progress, this video is for you.

In this video, I answer a question from a viewer. This individual wanted tips on what he could do to avoid getting stuck when he hears a native speaker use a word he doesn't know. As many of us can probably relate, it's so easy to get stuck on a word we don't know and then stop listening to what someone is saying altogether.

I hope this video helps you overcome this challenge. Contact me @polyglotazren or at https://azrenthelanguagenerd.com/contact if you have any comments or questions.

I'm back after a 5-week break! I was in Mexico for 2 weeks, Ottawa for 1 week, and I took 2 weeks to myself as a staycation. In this episode, I share my plans for Gujarati self-study resources and a piece of advice around immersion. Enjoy!

I believe that private language teachers can benefit from taking private lessons themselves. I recently took two Korean lessons and learned a useful way to improve fluency and make learning more immersive.

In this episode I also share a simple activity to your improve listening comprehension skills and one way traditional language classes fall short.
