"I love this 30-day verb challenge. It is motivating to have a new recording/reading and lesson each day and the verb placement is making sense. I am also picking up vocabulary along the way because of repetition and the story."

"Highly recommend the 30DC: Spoken French. It is easy to commit to 30 days. The course is fun and keeps you focused. The lessons are bite-sized (great with morning coffee). The pronunciation explanations are great. New insights + repetition."

"Love the fact we are taught through story! It’s so true that children pick up languages because they are listening to it all the time, so I appreciate being able to hear French daily! The video lessons and worksheets are also super useful!"

"After just two weeks of working with the course I had progressed more than I had in the four months I'd studied. The method is remarkably effective, and the rapid progress is motivating. Skillful Japanese now feels much more attainable."

"I've been following Olly Richards for a while and really like his "story learning" approach. The 30 day challenge has just the right difficulty level and the bite-sized approach with 15 minutes a day is ideal for learning while having fun."

"I've done a few of Olly's courses and read some of his books. They're a real boon for intermediate learners. He understands what's needed and is committed to helping. 30 day challenge is great if you want to watch French films and tv."

"The On-line Teaching Accelerator program is very motivational. But, more than that, it provides practical information. Because of personal reasons, I haven't begun a teaching program, but I hope to soon. Thanks for the help."

"Conversations is excellent! It helps me believe that understanding the rapid speech of the native speakers is possible. My subconscious mind does the memorizing job for me, while my conscious is enjoying the story. Learning this way is really easy"

"I like how short and concise it is. Other lessons I’ve tried seem really daunting when I see the video is 27 minutes long. Each lesson takes about 15 minutes total and I feel like I’m understanding way more. I’d do another challenge again"

"My comments after completing the first conversation. At first the conversion was rather fast and could not decipher the spoken words. But after listening to the conversation 6 times I was able to pick up the words and making sense."
