“How to Train for A Beautiful Brain” - Part 1

Do you remember the language requirement in school?  Were you excited by it, or did you dread having yet another thing to pack into your head?  What language did you learn?   Did you hold onto it, or were you able to just pass the course and leave it behind?

I believe that language is currency.  I was (and still am!) one of those people who wanted to travel and learn five languages.   I wasn’t able to learn them all while being a double major in English and Biology, pre-med and a French literature minor.  But the desire continued to live within me.  So, what I did was learn when I could as an adult.

 

 

My next guest has mastered six languages-- Spanish, German, French, Russian, Italian, Hungarian, and Japanese!

 

Gabriel Wyner was born in Los Angeles, and along his learning journey, he graduated summa cum laude in 2007 from the University of Southern California with dual degrees in Mechanical Engineering and Vocal Arts Performance. 

 

After he was awarded the Renaissance Scholar’s prize for excellence in unrelated disciplines, he moved to Vienna to pursue triple Master’s degrees in 2011. 

 

Searching for a way to bring the immersive language learning experience home with him, Gabe began to apply his analytical and engineering talents to developing a system that rapidly builds fluency with short, daily sessions – without the need for a tutor or immersion.

 

In 2010, his efforts paid off. Using his custom-designed system, he reached fluency in French in 5 months, followed by Russian in 10 months.

 

Gabe is the founder and CEO of Fluent Forever, is a best-selling author, opera singer and polyglot now based in Chicago, IL.  His book, “Fluent Forever: How to Learn Any Language Fast and Never Forget It,” became a national bestseller. 

 

The Fluent Forever app is built around his method, and is currently used by tens of thousands of people each month, having reached people in over 100 countries around the world by 2021.

 

Gabe joins me today via Streamyard on the Forever FAB Podcast to discuss language, goals, and the FAB Five words you need to know in every language.
