The Language Confidence Project
Your daily boost of language courage for those who love languages, and those who really don’t, but have to learn one anyway. No matter how much we like language learning, it’s hard to stay motivated for the long haul. We start comparing ourselves, the doubts crowd in, and we start wondering if we’re doing it all wrong. Join Emily Richardson, the super colourful writer, coach and self-taught polyglot for a weekday dose of tips, tricks, encouragement, and permission to learn your language your way. We can do this!
