Is there really “one best way” to learn a language? Joeru shares his real journeys with English, French, Korean, and Japanese — from cram schools to strict speaking drills — and why the most effective method is the one you’ll actually do daily. Expect practical, repeatable tips you can use on your commute, on a walk, or even in the shower. In this episode, we cover: – Taiwan context: when English study starts, and how cram schools shape habits – Why adult learners need different strategies than kids (fluency vs. memorization) – Speaking-first methods: heavy repetition, teacher-led drills, and pronunciation focus – Simple routines that work: 重複同一句話 many times while waiting for the bus, walking, or showering – Personal language paths: trying French/Korean/Japanese for curiosity, travel, and work – Core principle: methods are personal — experiment, keep what sticks, repeat daily 🗣 Listener Challenge: Pick one sentence you want to own in your target language. Repeat it 30 times today in three moments (commute/walk/shower). Share your sentence and why you chose it on Instagram and tag @bitesize.chinese! ☕️ About Bitesize Talks: Welcome to ☕️ 𝗕𝗶𝘁𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸𝘀 ☕️ — a podcast series designed for A1–A2 level Mandarin learners who want a bit more challenge!
