Start memorizing real, useful sentences today with a method designed to make learning effortless and enjoyable.

How I Learned Languages

My immigrant classmates

When I was 11 or 12, I discovered something magical. My immigrant classmates would translate short texts for me - simple things like what I did over the weekend -into their native languages.

I couldn’t properly learn the grammar, but I became obsessed with these texts. I’d repeat them over and over, in loop, until they stuck. Years later, I still remember parts of them (clearly knowing what I’m saying), despite never studying the grammar formally.

That’s when I realized: having a basic toolkit of sentences - phrases you know by heart - gives you the perfect foundation to build your language skills on top of.

The disappearing words trick

The problem? Learning by heart is usually boring. It’s awful, actually.

But then I discovered a game-changing technique in my beginner Dutch class.

Our teacher made us repeat a short dialogue, but with a twist: we’d say it all together several times, then she’d remove one word.

We’d repeat it again. Then she’d remove another word.

By the end, there were no words left on the board - but we’d memorized the entire dialogue anyway. Our brains had retained it through pure repetition, almost without us noticing.

My solution

I’ve combined these two experiences into a language learning method that makes memorization as painless as possible.

You get 10 easy texts - but none of that outdated “booking a hotel by phone” or “sending a package at the post office” stuff from 1995. These are real scenarios from our era, situations you’d actually encounter today.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Matching Exercise: Link sentence fragments from your target language to English translations. No grammar drills, just understanding.

  2. Three Disappearing Versions: Repeat each version with progressively fewer words until the sentences are burned into memory.

  3. Audio Included: Listen and repeat until you can say each sentence confidently without guidance.

Why This Works

  • Memorization is painless and engaging

  • Real-life sentences you actually use today

  • Audio ensures listening + speaking practice

  • Build a foundation you can expand into full conversations
