Description

This is part one of a three-part series I'm calling "For the very reluctant learners". You need to learn a language. You don't want to learn a language. So the Inner Complainer has A LOT to complain about here. 

In this series, we are going to look at some of the Inner Complainer’s loudest mental protestations to learning a language and we’re going to try and reframe them for you. And today, we are diving into all the mental resistance that comes from the voice that tells you “I am not a language learner”.

Join your host, Emily Richardson, every weekday for a short and snappy dose of language courage to get you unstuck, whether you love languages or whether you really don't, but need to learn one anyway. Emily is the tiny and colourful creator of Tea with Me, a platform to help multi-passionate and unconventional language learners splash language into every part of their lives. She is also the author of the How to Be Me series of language journals to help you to tell the stories that really matter in your new language.
