About the Author
Olly Richards speaks eight languages and is the man behind the popular blog: I Will Teach You A Language. He started learning his first foreign language at age 19, when he bought a one-way ticket to Paris…
With no exposure to languages growing up, and no special talent to speak of, he had to figure out how to learn a foreign language from scratch. Fifteen years later, Olly has studied ten languages and has decided to reveal how he accomplished his goal of learning foreign languages quickly.
Although he started the I Will Teach You A Language blog in order to document his latest language learning experiments, his useful and actionable writing quickly transformed the blog into one of the most popular sources of language learning advice on the web. He now produces language books and courses across a variety of mediums with the goal of helping other people to successfully learn a new language.
Alex Rawlings was named Britain’s most multilingual student after being tested for fluency in 11 different languages. Now having studied more than 15 languages, Alex spends his time writing about language learning and the importance of multilingualism.

This book is super cool for beginners. There is a comprehension mini exercise at the end of each chapter. Reminded me of school days when we used to learn English Language. I am at A1 level and even I can read and understand most of it. The best past? The technique is explained – how to reach, how to re-read and how to assimilate. I want to get all the bpoks in this series. But yes, the others are pretty expensive. This was fairly reasonably priced! If you love reading, you will love this as well. It’s a collection of stories!

Buen libro para estudiar alemán
Nada más he leído una historia, pero me gustó mucho el formato en Kindle porque si es fácil remitirme al diccionario que viene incluido. No viene la traducción de todas las palabras, pero en general es un buen libro que mezcla una gramática clara con una lectura fluida. No tendría demasiado expectativa con respecto al contenido de las historias, pero si me parece bien con respecto a su precio y su utilidad.
