Learning the basics of a language is one thing. That’s what I do for my YouTube videos most of the time. Becoming really good at a language is something else.
Kind of like how I spent years in a (figurative) monastery learning Spanish. But that’s a story for another time!
Anyway, it kind of requires a different approach!
An approach that requires you to spend more time with the language...
But let’s be honest, unless you’re a language geek like me, you don’t enjoy spending hours learning words and grammar rules from old-school textbooks, right?
No worries!
We’ve created a brand new program that will help you reach an intermediate level in Spanish the fun way.
The program comes in the form of a funny, gorgeously produced video series that takes place in Mexico. It’s based on a mind-blowing story full of surprises!
It’s almost as captivating as watching your favorite Netflix show! But this program will actually make you “Street-Smart” in Spanish!
Hear me out…
So maybe you’ve already learned some Spanish.
You’ve tried it out in the real world. You know how cool it is to break the ice with strangers from different backgrounds.
But as you know, talking to Spanishpeople in their language can get tricky fast.
‘’Wow, what did he just say? That went a little fast for me!’’
So you just smiled and pretended like you understood!
We’re all guilty of this, right? 🙂
No worries, you’re not the only one…
If you’ve been following my work on the XiaomaNYC YouTube channel, you probably know what my learning method is all about.
In case you don’t…
I always learn the most important words and phrases first. Then I start forming simple sentences that I make gradually more difficult over time.
I really focus on learning the opening moves first, just like in a chess game! And I always practice what I learn with native speakers, because that’s the only way to activate the language in your brain.
That’s how I manage to talk to people from different backgrounds in their own language after just a few days of study.
They say that ‘‘what gets you from zero to one is often not what takes you from one to ten.’’ In language learning it’s the same thing.
You see, if you want to hold a meaningful conversation in your target language, you also need to understand what the other person is saying.
And that can be a problem if you only know the most important words!
You need more input.
You need to read and listen more often in your target language. The world’s most accomplished language learners would agree with this.
One problem: reading and listening is boring.
Until now…
We’ve created a series of brand new Spanish courses for those who’ve studied some Spanish before and now want to reach an intermediate level.
This time it’s based on an exciting video series full of surprises and unexpected plot twists!
The story follows a young woman who travels to Mexico to visit her grandmother. Upon arrival, things don't go as planned, and she finds herself in serious trouble. Fortunately, a young local barista offers to help. She is delighted – until she finds out there’s something, well, wrong with him...
We recorded the videos in the beautiful city of Guadalajara, Mexico, working with a team of local filmmakers and actors. That means that you won’t just take your Spanish to the next level, you’ll also get to explore a new country, its people and its culture!
Yep!
That’s right, “input-based learning’’ (learning through reading and listening) just became fun!
And that’s important because the more fun you have when learning Spanish, the more time you’ll spend with the language and the more progress you’ll make!
Enjoying the learning progress is crucial when aiming for an intermediate level. We've designed Street Smart Spanish so you always want to know what will happen next!
Look, let me introduce you to...
Alright, so up till now, we’ve been talking about the methodology. But let’s do what I like to do, skip the boring stuff, and have a look at the main characters of the video series.
Sound more fun? 😉
