Will Liney recently graduated from the University of Exeter where he studied International Relations, Spanish and Portuguese. He spent a year working at an International Film Festival in Argentina where he gained fluency in Spanish. For the past year and a half Will, along with two other University of Exeter graduates, has been developing Immerse, a multimedia language immersion website and mobile application that aims to immerse its users in the language they are learning through fresh and authentic content.
I know what you are thinking, yet another “expert” is taking to the internet to talk about the latest method of language learning. In all honesty, for me, the only way to truly become fluent in the language you are learning is to immerse yourself in it, go to the country, speak to and befriend native speakers, learn about what they watch and read. This will do you more good than 10 years of classes at home. My personal experience with this was heading off to Argentina for a year, where I lived with native speakers and worked in Spanish, I returned home fluent and I have been looking for a reason to go back out there ever since!
