"I’ve only just started this course, after many other first starts which took me nowhere! Sure, I’ve learned vocabulary, grammar etc, like a jigsaw puzzle. This course feels different..well structured and attuned to my needs."

"I'm actively doing Turkish. It's enjoyable and challenging. Olly's method is not boring, but it requires persistence. The best part is to go back to earlier steps to see real progress: what was obscure is familiar, almost all understood."

"I can thoroughly recommend "French Uncovered". The method of combining story telling with good video grammar/vocabulary lessons is unbeatable. Other courses just have one or the other and fall short of what a student really needs."

"My French skills qualify as no more than a few words before taking this on. However, I've found even before half way that I can keep up with the spoken story when I listen and read now. I'm also able to understand more and more each chapter"

"I like the challenge. It draws my attention to small things. I don*t really understand why the explanations aren't in french, I think at that level of understanding you should be able to follow in the target language"

"Even though this course is called "Polyglot Playbook" 5 of the lessons were especially helpful to me as a beginner. I will be referring back to this course as I continue to progress in learning another language."

"I’ve only been learning Spanish for a few weeks but I can already see how this novel approach will help me immerse myself in the language quickly. I like that I can go at my own pace because some days I have more time or energy than others"

"I have really enjoyed the courses so far and found the method of learning suits me much better than the traditional course that I previously followed. Listening to natural French spoken at normal speed is a very satisfying way to learn."
