Introduction to the Rules of Language Learning

My name is Olly Richards, and on this channel I document my experiments in foreign language acquisition:

• Rapid language learning
• Writing Chinese characters
• Languages and travel...on location!
• Daily study routines
• Advanced level tactics

I'm soon beginning an exciting new series called: The Rules of Language Learning. This video is an intro for the series!

To see some of my previous experiments, why not try...

• Learn Thai in 14 Days:

• Learn To Write Chinese (Traditional Characters)

• Daily Study Routines and Schedules

If you're interested in becoming a better language learner, and discovering the secrets to learning languages quickly, be sure to check out my podcast:

Dear Olly, there is no need to tell something to do for learning or improving..just SPEAK for us :) That's all !! Well as I am mastering my British accent at the momnet, I do need to listen and watch more Britains. but it is not just watching any person I see, of course, I choose people first as everyone does and those ones should be positive, and much more enthuastic for me! I have recently invented your channel and I am so happy to be here :) You became one of the accent motivators for me as I am not a monotonous person I need much more british channels and educated people to find and listen to ) So thank you for your speaking..!! there are so many interesting themes that you can talk about, I mean show us the real life in Britain. Let us be in those situations, so that we can express ourselves with the needed expressions, rather than the unused words that all learners are learning for show us the real life film that goes around yourself because YOU are the main actor in that film! Thanks again, and GOOD LUCK!!

I'm glad to see the channel refresh! I've always though you've shared some great and unique insights on language learning, so this should improve your ability to do that. Cheers Olly!

Bring on the TROLL, great new mise en scene and many Magnetic Vibes coming your way for 100k subscribers.

Ayrton mentioned "the Paradox of Choice" in his comment, which reminds me of a book I want to read called The Paradox of Intention.

Not sure if you have anything planned on it, but I'm certainly interested in the neuroscience work on free will and what it might tell us about language learning, TROLL and possibly even memory reserve in terms of changes language learning makes to the brain for the long term.

Consistency is number one for me. Then to keep challenging yourself, moving forward. And last, never give up!

[linguaEpassione]

Ciao Olly! Congrats on your new setting and best of luck for your new series, I'm sure it's going to be interesting and fun to follow! (see you in less than a week!)

[GypsieSeeker]

I hope you touch on the Paradox of Choice in this series. Procrastination from fear of choosing an “inefficient” method is an issue in itself.

Very pleasant to watch. Love the new set up. Good luck, Olly!

Why that lamp keep moving, that's awkward

[TomCopeland]

Really looking forward to this series! Totally agree about rules never really being "rules" but always being great to talk about. Love the new setup by the way 👌

[TheTreborMedia]

Is a great idea Olly. I have been a follower of your podcasts for over 10 months. No worries! I know you'll hit numerous followers your channel. I'm looking forward to this series.

[KevinAbroad]

What a tease! Will be looking forward to see what you have in store.

While learning Korean, your videos have been very helpful in the process of self-studying! Thanks Olly

[vanessavardell]

Yesss! Finally - looking forward to it! Hopefully you can make some more brasilian Portuguese videos :)

[FordyHunt]

Better quality video is a great idea Olly. I'm looking forward to this series.

[mislady]

Hey silly, I’m kinda new to your channel, but I’m in this thousand group. Can’t wait to get stsrted - Shalom !

[drmichaelelinski]

Wonderful setup for recording the videos. Congratulations on the upgrade.

[charlespowell]

I already have language learning foundations! So is T.R.O.L.L just for beginners?

[simoncanty]

I'm also looking forward to this new series Oily.
I wonder if you could include some advice on learning the language in a country where you are living and have lived long term ?
I'm still struggling and need a fresh approach to improve.
Good luck!😀

Re-subscribed. Good luck for the 100.000. I am in. 🤣

Olly, I'm really enjoying you "TROLL" series. I have subscribed and saved the playlist, but the playlist is in reverse chronological order, is that intentional? It seems weird to have the intro video last and rule 4 first.
