StoryLearning - Learn A Language Through Stories Bewertungen 

What a refreshing approach to learning German! The story is engaging and interesting, with audio and transcripts introduced in an ideal manner that allows absorption of the material without feeling overwhelmed. Exercises at the end of each chapter seem more like a challenging fun game instead of a chore. Corresponding lectures on vocabulary, grammar, and additional communication skills are relevant and useful. This course will greatly increase your ability to function at the conversational level in everyday life.

I have completed the two Beginner level modules for Latin American Spanish. This is my first attempt to learn Spanish. I am also enrolled in the VIP program and have an excellent patient tutor (Victor) who has made this entire experience enjoyable and productive. I believe I have attained “Upper Level Beginner” status and am eagerly trying to get to an Intermediate Level. I have learned that the more effort I devote to learning, the greater the return. My listening and speaking skills are developing slower than my reading and writing skills. I am optimistic that my ability to converse will come along as I go through the next two modules. It is frustrating at times to not have a vocabulary that I can bring forth during my speaking exercises, but I believe the words will come easier/ faster as I continue to read as much as I can, and practice speaking with my Spanish speaking friends.

Really great language courses! I've already finished Spanish and now learning Danish and I love the method and the pacing of the Storylearning programs. Really really recommended!

The StoryLearning Method by Olly Richards offers a refreshing approach to language learning. Immersing in compelling stories prioritizes comprehension and real-world language use over memorizing vocabulary lists and grammar rules. This method has helped me tremendously. Thanks Olly and your team for all you do to put fun into language learning.

I learned Italian from scratch and completed from beginner level to advanced. Am I at C1 level? No, but the question is tricky. I can understand conversations at native pace and can converse at reasonable level. I also completed French at advanced level. I had a head start, but all skills at C1 level takes time. I benefited greatly from my experience with these course. It is good to take input at a natural pace and not spoon-fed. These are for people who want a good challenge.

Always found the story interesting and the teaching (in the Spanish course at least) to be really good. You are naturally exposed to the language in context so it makes more sense than just a list of verbs etc in a text book.
I keep coming back to the stories just to brush up a little and get more time with the language. It’s a worthwhile investment of money and time. There is no magic pill of “15mins a day for a month and you’ll be fluent” - you need to get stuck in and spend the time with it - and that’s what this course provides.
Support is on hand if you get stuck with log-ins or something with the language.
It’s not cheap, but there is a lot of content that has had to be created and teachers to be involved so it won’t be - it’s a 10week course - it’s cheaper than 10 weeks with a teacher would cost - it is a good investment in yourself.
I was a total beginner and now I am B2 level in conversation, so for me, it works.

Chinese Uncovered from Story Learning is a great course and is definitely helping me become more fluent in Mandarin Chinese. As they say there are 4 markers for levels of fluency: 1) speaking, 2) listening and understanding, 3) reading and 4) writing. The Uncovered course helps with all of those. I recommend the Story Learning courses to anyone wanting to learn a new language.

StoryLearning by Olly Richards is a fun way to learn a language. This simple yet effective method helps language learners acquire a new language the same way they acquired their native language, through the power of stories. Learning felt more natural and effortless for me and I felt more confident speaking in my new language.

I am so impressed with the fact that the teachers still monitor and answer the community comments and questions four years after they made the teaching videos. You don't pay anything for this ongoing instruction. Your initial investment keeps paying off!

*UPDATE* I did sign up in the end but due to the initial issues I had lost interest by this point - however, i have revised up my rating from 1 to 3*

Signed up for the free trial and no login details received 24 hours later.

The website is full of heavy sales pitches on almost every page. You can clearly see the creator is more interested in making money than wanting to teach you any languages.

Given the extortionate prices things shouldn't be this difficult.

I'd try Pimsleur instead.

The Begginer Italian course is great but then there is a big dcecline in the teaching quality when you get to the intermediate level.
The method is good but its just a shame that the high standard of teaching is not consistent throughout the course.

Really good customer support. I only wanted to use the free trial, but I got the full experience with lots of supplementary emails and material. The owner is also on youtube.
