Frequently Asked Questions
This program is designed for those who have hit a plateau after the beginner stages. It's perfect for you if you're at an "advanced beginner" or "intermediate" level, meaning you've used apps like Duolingo, memorized a good amount of vocabulary, and understand the basic grammar, but you still can't understand native speakers or express yourself with confidence. We'll build on that foundation to get you to a place of genuine comprehension and fluency.
No, not that. It’s not a language tutor to practice the language with. The main goal of this program is to teach you a system for effective, independent (self-directed, autodidact) learning. We focus on building your skills in sentence mining, managing your own SRS, and creating a sustainable immersion routine. Think of it as learning to fish, not just being given a fish; we are building the engine for your fluency.
Absolutely. Effective immersion isn't about studying for 8 hours a day; it's about smartly integrating the language into your existing daily life. We'll show you how to turn dead time into productive learning time, like listening to a podcast on your commute, watching one 30-minute TV show in your target language instead of your native one, or playing music while you cook. The goal is consistent, enjoyable contact with the language, not overwhelming, all-day study sessions.
That’s an excellent question, and it highlights what makes this program unique. Your tutor's primary role is not to teach you the specific grammar or vocabulary of a language, but to be an expert architect of your learning system. Think of it this way: a world-class personal trainer can design a championship-level training plan for a swimmer or a cyclist. Their expertise lies in the principles of fitness, recovery, physiology, biomechanics, and motivation, rather than in being the best swimmers themselves.
