#132 Emanuel on “Stage Fright” in Language Learning

How can tutors help their students avoid anxiety and the feeling
of “stage fright” when speaking a new language?


Emanuel Vasconcelos is one of the favorite Spanish teachers among
the Fluent in 3 Months Bootcamp community, and Elizabeth’s
primary Spanish tutor. In this interview, they discuss Emanuel’s
journey to becoming a Spanish language teacher and the methods he
uses to help his students improve their language learning
effectively.


Emanuel explains how his focus is working with students using
constructive techniques rather than the usual error-correction
dynamic that many teachers follow.


A lot of the Language Hacking Podcast guests are students from
the Fluent in 3 Months Bootcamp (formerly, the Challenge), so
Emanuel’s perspective is an eye-opener!


PS: Plenty of personal anecdotes from Elizabeth’s and Benny’s
learner experiences in this episode, so don’t miss out on them!
