This is the first part of a series of episodes in which I explore what the common assumptions are for language teaching. Today, I'm covering the first three questions in the survey I opened, which you can also answer here: https://forms.gle/qAnoxepR2Fdgpnbv6


The questions are:

Sounding like a native speaker should be the ultimate goal for any language learner.
To learn English, you must start thinking in English. Learners who constantly translate in their heads learn slower.
Children are better language learners than adults.

Thank you very much for sticking up with me. Next week, you'll get the last episode of the year.
