Language Learning on Steroids - Stefani Kostadinova | PGO 2022

“Do not learn multiple languages at the same time – especially of the same language family.” Haven’t we all heard this piece of advice multiple times? Most language experts and polyglots will tell you that learning multiple languages at once is doable, but generally not advisable, and downright out of the question, if you are a beginner or happen to be learning closely-related languages. However, there is no one size fits all in language learning – and even the longest established rules can be broken. In this talk, I would like to discuss how and why learning multiple languages at once has actually been one of the cornerstones of my becoming a polyglot and how you can use it to take your learning to the next level – and have much more fun along the way.
