061: Is it REALLY a bad idea to learn multiple languages?

Agnes asks: "I'm learning lots of languages, and it's going fine! Is it really a bad idea to learn more than one language at a time?"

In this episode:
  • Always follow your passions
  • If you love learning different languages... keep going!
  • High school and university is the ideal time to be learning languages
  • Ellen Jovin - http://ellenjovin.com/
  • Adults often have a hard time learning a foreign language because of busy lives, so for them the advice to stick with learning one language stands
