  • Really helpful study aid

    I’m trying to learn Catalan at the moment and this podcast really helps reinforce what I’m studying. Christina is a great teacher and the fact that Alex is learning at the same time is sort of reassuring when I make silly mistakes or forget things.

  • Effort appreciated, one small problem

    I really appreciate the effort in time that was taken by the host to put together this series. The one small problem is the “ student” has such a poor accent that It causes negative reinforcement of bad habits. It actually makes it difficult to know how it should be pronounced if one out of every two phrases is being pronounced incorrectly. It severely degrades the ability of one to actually learn.

    These guys are great, and very clever in the way they’ve constructed their language learning classes. Starting from scratch it’s really helped my Catala come along. I am a Patreon member and highly recommend this feature if you want to up your game, Moltes gràcies 🙏
