Waiting to Learn a Second Language

The Unspoken Cost + An Announcement

At the end of the day, learning just one other language can give you access to several more countries and several hundred millions of people. Between the amount of people who have spent years studying a second language in the public education system to those who spent thousands and thousands of dollars to get a piece of paper that says they speak a second language irrespective of their actual ability. It’s embarrassing. However, things do not need to remain as they are.

The group of people I spend the most time working with is working adults who have spent years working on a second language only to walk away from it completely. Every single one of them has expressed to me that they wish they would have either taken their language studies more seriously when they were happening or that they would have started sooner. Luckily for you, budding polyglot, we have a VERY exciting announcement.

Our new website is LIVE!!

AND

There is ANOTHER announcement…

Visit www.secondlanguagestrategies.com to see what we have available so far and be sure to bookmark and check back often for new resources as there will be constant updates.

For those interested in getting started, check here.

If you have an interest in where words come from, check out our etymology section!

Lastly, for an ongoing list of tools to use, check out our recommendations.

I will slowly, but surely, be migrating all of the content here to the website, but free and paid subs here will continue to receive articles 3-4 times/week, but archives and worksheets will be housed there.

Our goal is to bring bilingualism (or more) to your inbox, week in and week out. This website will act as a one stop shop for all of your language learning needs, but we are always improving and open to feedback. If there is something you think is missing or would like to see there for easy access, please leave a comment here or send an email to odin@secondlanguagestrategies.com.

This post was meant to go out yesterday evening, but we ran into some technical difficulties that have been resolved now.

I look forward to hearing/seeing some success stories in the coming weeks and months!

Becoming bilingual is difficult, but you can do difficult things and be great. So go do difficult things and become great. Here I’ve given you some of the tools, but in the end, there is no comprehensive guide, no tips or tricks to carry anyone across the finish line. Language acquisition requires time, effort, and consistency. That said, it is something that anyone of any age is more than capable of accomplishing. I’ll be rooting for you and keeping an eye on your progress.
