Dr. Stephen Krashen is one of the most influential figures in the field of second-language acquisition (SLA), and has made a major contribution to the way we now think about language teaching and learning.

I was delighted to get the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Krashen in Montreal to discuss a range of topics, in particular the extent to which his theories of language acquisition can be observed in the learning techniques of polyglots - people who learn multiple language.

In this fascinating interview, you'll hear about:
• Krashen’s background with music, and the relationship between music and language learning
• Do language teachers have an obligation to learn languages themselves?
• The languages that Krashen speaks himself
• The role of “comprehensible input” in language learning
• What does he think of the polyglot community?
• What’s the one language mystery that Krashen would like to see solved?
