  • Wonderful

    I just discovered this wonderful podcast this morning and I cannot stop listening to it. I have been attempting to learn the Spanish language for so many years but it has been a struggle. There are little things, as I listen, I hear from the guests that give me hope and make me happy about my journey. I am grateful for this podcast to share and teach everyone who listens!

  • Leveen's Mission: prevent America from becoming Humanity's largest cluster of Monolinguals

    Thought-provoking stories of 'regular' Americans & 'immigrant' Americans and the (more than 1) languages they speak. Food for thought for those in The New World who think that because 'the whole world speaks English', no effort would be necessary to add an extra dimension to their lives, by venturing into a second language, a second culture ... abroad.

    Listened to all 8 (so far) and can't wait to hear what's next.

  • Much Needed

    Second language acquisition changed the course of my life. Even better than walking in another's shoes is speaking another's language. America the Bilingual is a wonderful contribution to the cause.
