CONVERSATION COURSE The Complete Fluent in 3 Months Conversation Builder_5 MODULES

The Fluent in 3 Months Conversation Builder course takes a “speak it to learn it” approach. That means almost zero grammar. You’ll learn what you need to start speaking your new language with native speakers, right away.

Most language courses focus on words and phrases you’ll rarely use in real conversations, like “curtains” and “tall”. We’ll show you the power phrases you can start using right away in real conversations — and how to build a bank of your own power phrases that are relevant to you. These power phrases are the building blocks of almost every conversation you’ll have in your target language.

Over 5 in-depth modules, you’ll learn how to do the following in your target language:

• Say “hello” and introduce yourself.
• Talk about your work, your family, and where you’re from.
• Explain why you’re learning your target language. You’ll be able to tell others what you like about it, and your reasons for wanting to speak the language.
• Talk about the things that you enjoy doing in your free time.
• Share about your favorite apps and resources for learning your target language.
• Make sure your conversation partner speaks at a speed that’s right for you. You’ll also learn how to ask them to repeat things you don’t understand.
• Ask questions so you can learn more about your conversation partners.

We teach specific techniques you can use so you can start speaking your target language even before you’ve built up your vocabulary. It’s a potent and effective way to start doing what most language learners want, right from day one: have real conversations with native speakers.

Powerful Language Hacks You’ll Use Inside the Challenge

Here’s a glimpse into the new way of thinking about languages you’ll discover inside the Challenge. These hacks — and many others too — will become part of who you are and your mindset towards learning.

HACK 1 BREAK OUT OF “ONE-SIZE-FITS-ALL” LEARNING

Most language courses tell you what to learn and how to learn it. They take a one-size-fits-all approach. It’s little wonder that many people leave school feeling “languages aren’t for me!” If you feel like that, it simply means the method of language teaching used at your school didn’t fit your learning style.

The truth is, we all learn differently. Depending on your learning style, different tools will work for you.

My language hacking approach is an incredibly flexible system. It offers you the opportunity to try out different methods, tools, and techniques to see what works for you. And because you’ll be doing this in my private community, you’ll get to see how others learn, try out what they’re doing, and ask for suggestions that fit in with your lifestyle.

You can be as unconventional as you like. My philosophy is that if it works for you, then do it!

HACK 2 GIVE YOURSELF A TIME LIMIT

Research from MIT shows that you work smarter and harder (and get better results) if you have deadlines — especially if you have lots of small deadlines that build up to a bigger deadline.

That’s why the Challenge always lasts just 90 days — and you’ll be aiming for a 15-minute conversation in your new language at the end of 90 days.

That’s a pretty tight deadline, so it will keep you focused on learning.

At the same time, you only have to keep up your learning for 90 days. So when the going gets tough, you’ll know that it won’t always be that way. After day 90, you can slack off as much as you want!

But you can slack off with a satisfying 15 minute conversation in your pocket.

You can be as unconventional as you like. My philosophy is that if it works for you, then do it!

HACK 3 EMBRACE “OPTIMAL AROUSAL”

At times when you’re learning a new language you’ll feel uncomfortable. It’s perfectly normal to feel that way when you’re meeting new people to chat with in a language you’re still learning.

So, as you speak your new language, you’ll be stepping outside your comfort zone.

Stepping outside your comfort zone — and feeling a little anxious — is good for learning. A small amount of anxiety helps you feel more focused, and perform better as you learn.

If you’re too relaxed, you’ll struggle to learn because you won’t have enough focus. The same is true if you’re too anxious. You’re aiming for what’s called “optimal arousal”.

In other words, it’s a good thing to take small steps outside your comfort zone. When you push yourself to feel a little anxious, you move up the arousal curve, and your performance improves.

Inside the Challenge I guide you through this process of taking small steps beyond what feels comfortable, all the way to having real conversations with native speakers.

HACK 4 SPEAK!

We learn languages to connect with others, right? At least I do.

That’s why I always say the best way to learn a language is to speak from day one. The sooner you start speaking, the sooner you’ll start connecting with others.

Plus you’ll be practicing the skill you actually want to learn.

The Challenge is all about speaking a language. Sure, you can do listening, reading and writing as part of the challenge. But the goal is speaking.

I’ll show you what it takes to find the confidence to speak a new language — and have comfortable convesations with native speakers. You’ll unlock your love of languages and find the confidence to finally connect.

HACK 5 IT’S NOT ABOUT YOUR GRANDMA

You’ve got to be here because you want to be here. Not because your grandma wants you to, your mom wants you to, or because you vaguely believe it’s a good idea to speak another language. If that’s you, then step away. The Challenge is only for people who are hungry to learn a language.

When you’re learning because you want to learn, you’ll perform better.

Wanting to be there is also called intrinsic motivation. And research shows that if you have this, you’re better at learning.
