How can we learn a language quickly and efficiently, even if we don't have time to study? People used to say that it takes years to learn a language, and you need to invest a lot of money in courses, private classes and books. Are you also struggling with the same problems as other people who learn languages? Do you recognize any of these?
As a teenager, Konrad Jerzak vel Dobosz wanted to become a polyglot, but like most of us he needed to deal with the same challenges: lack of time, lack of an efficient method of learning, difficulties memorizing the vocabulary, lack of motivation and the fear of making mistakes. He decided to analyze the methods of well-known polyglots, including Heinrich Schliemann, Emil Krebs and Giuseppe Mezzofanti. He took a close look at the approaches proposed by modern language learning experts Richard Simcott, Luca Lampariello, Moses McCormick and Benny Lewis.
This book, The Secrets of Polyglots is the result of his analysis of the methods developed by the greatest polyglots. You can find here the description of the techniques used by the biggest experts, and also a step-by-step method, which Konrad Jerzak vel Dobosz used himself to learn more than ten languages.
The Secrets of Polyglots was written especially for people who:
- Need to learn a foreign language, but don't have much time to study
- Have registered for language courses, but aren't happy with the results
- Learn by themselves, but want more efficient techniques
- Want to learn several languages simultaneously, but don't know how to
- Desire to be able to master any foreign language in a couple of months
The first part is a description of 17 extremely efficient techniques and concepts that will improve your language learning process. The second part explains, step-by-step, the learning system used by the author, including a practical example of how to apply all the secrets described in the first part.
Testimonials:
I need to say that I skip all kind of self-help guide type of books. But 'The Secrets of Polyglots' grabbed immediately my attention and, after reading just a couple of pages, I knew that I needed to buy this book. And it was worth it, because it opened my eyes to many different aspects of language learning that I had ignored previously. The great advantage of this book is lack of catchy slogans promising us language fluency just after a month of study. Instead, the author delivers reliable and very useful knowledge on how to gradually learn vocabulary and grammar, and also how to find motivation and develop our linguistic skills. I myself used the advice from Konrad's book, and I can proudly say that after 1.5 years of studying Portuguese, I began communicating fluently in this language. The author's story itself is so inspiring and motivating that it can be used as a cure whenever we start having doubts or feeling lazy. I am the living example of how it works! I can honestly recommend The Secret of Polyglots to anyone who wants to approach language learning seriously, especially those people who claim, fully convinced, that they have no talent for it. Check it out and see what results it will b
