Will have to see what we can do. I would like to do somehting like this for Chinese too – and then the other way round for the Chinese and Thai markets learning English.

Bryan, I agree. Either a DVD and/or an interactive community website would be fabulous. Not many would blink an eye at paying a fee.

Stu,

You have to put your courses onto DVD. I think you have great skills and knowledge that should be shared with the world–not just locally. Whether you see yourself as an exceptional person or not, you must agree that you have many valuable skills that could change the way people learn for the better.

A fantastic interview(s) with a man who has a unique learning technique. I viewed the video and was captivated by Stuart and his many animations and noises. His hand to word formation is something new to me and I can see how successful it would be.

A guy with a big talent for not only learning languages but also for teaching them in a refreshingly different manner too. I’m going to bookmark Stuart’s blog because his enthusiasm in the videos must be evident in his writing as well.

A polygot who has a yearly slot amongst the Miss Universe contestants…how does that song go….’Some guys have all the luck.’

Thanks guys. It was great doing the interview just to get some of my thoughts focused again. The dust is still settling over here. I really need to get more clips done and posted now :)

I find that once people can break past their inhibitions and start feeling ok with making crazy associations internally (though sometimes you get some external seepage!) you can memorize almost anything. Your creativity is the limit. Both a strength and a weakness of being human – our brains can find ways to link and make sense of anything if we give it the freedom to.

Thanks Tony (and Stu, of course :-) Stu’s method of memorizing is comfortable. Ok, I still blush at his wonderful ‘aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahs’, but they got me there.
