In this podcast episode, we discuss the challenges of learning a new language as we age. 


Drawing from a 2018 study, we detail the main points, including the ⁠ideal age⁠ to start learning a second language and the factors that make it more difficult to learn as we get older. We also explore what this means for ⁠language learners⁠ and provide practical steps to help you keep learning. 


The research suggests that immersion is the most effective way to become fluent in a language, but we also offer alternatives for those who cannot immerse themselves. From watching English-language TV shows to finding ⁠conversation partners⁠ online, we discuss several strategies to help you achieve your language learning goals. 


Remember, everyone learns differently, so it's important to find what works best for you and have fun along the way!
