Fluent in 3 Months: How Anyone at Any Age Can Learn to Speak Any Language from Anywhere in the World

Attitude Versus Latitude
There are, however, many situations in which people successfully learn a
language abroad. In many cases, they have done some advance work, but
generally, when I hear about immersion courses, I find it’s not being in the
country that produces a successful language speaker, but that no one was
allowed to speak English.
Because of this, immersion courses have started springing up in the
wrong countries! There is an interesting concept in Spain: they create an
“English village,” they fly in English speakers, and Spaniards from nearby
towns or cities work on their English there—an English immersion
experience that doesn’t require a Spaniard to leave Spain. You can imagine

how easy it would be to reverse this and have a “Spanish village” in
English-speaking countries. Of course, we have these already in many
multicultural neighborhoods.
This really shows that where you are isn’t what decides whether or not
you’ll be successful. Attitude beats latitude (and longitude) every time. It’s
more about creating an immersion environment, exposing yourself to native
speakers, and doing everything you can in that language.
The Human Factor
Exposure to human beings who speak your target language is what it’s all
about. If you can surround yourself with English speakers and maintain an
English-speaking bubble when in a foreign country, then surely the reverse
is true, right? Why not surround yourself (physically or digitally) with
native speakers of the language you are learning right from home?
It’s time with real people and real exposure to the language through TV,
radio, and movies that pushes you forward. And you can do this from
anywhere.
I’ve been so adamant that time with human beings is the solution to any
language learning problem that I’ve gone so far as to make a sales pitch for
a Human Being product I call HB 2.0. Its features include:
