| DON'T BELIEVE THESE LANGUAGE 'MYTHS' |
1) "I'm not good with languages"
Yes you are! Have a positive attitude. There's no 'gene' for language learning.
2) "I'm too old to learn a language"
No you're not! That's a self-fulfilling prophecy. We've taught students from 3 to 84.
3) "I speak English. Why do I need other languages?"
As global demographics continue to shift, learning a language like Spanish or Mandarin is an investment in your future.
Open yourself to another language and a world will open in return…
