Day one

This conference has gathered the best polyglots. they are all unique and very different from one another, but there is one thing they have in common - they love learning languages; they are talented and they travel a lot. Those people who speak 5, 10 or more language live in a totally different world! They know that only the sky's the limit.

So, you have a chance now to get into this world and to try how it feels :)

Today we will have a unique opportunity to see:

8.00 p.m. (Moscow time) - Richard DeLong “Language acquisition for rebels: the Frictionless Mastery method”. The presentation is in English.

9.00 p.m.(Moscow time) - Kris Broholm “You don't need to be Mezzofanti to enjoy learning languages”. The presentation is in English.

10.00 p.m. (Moscow time) - Idahosa Ness “How to Learn a Language Faster by Learning it Backwards”. The presentation is in English.

The time of presentations is given in Moscow time zone.

By the way, DeLong has also presented his ideas in a podcast somewhere (maybe Language Mastery?) ... and it was an excellent talk.
