#26 Jonathan Huggins on the “One Method” Strategy

Jonathan Huggins first discovered his love for learning languages
when he started diving into his father’s language learning
library. That passion brought him to France to study music and
continues to be a part of his life as he teaches English online
while living abroad and raising his kids to speak multiple
languages.


In this episode, we chat with Jonathan about why classroom
learning worked for him, how to learn languages in the age of
distraction, and how to create sustainable language routines.
