I was able to learn more in 9 months with your techniques than I did in the 6+ years I studied a language in school.”

Courtney Baird

“Uncovered is the first language course I've ever actually enjoyed. It's helping me move from absolute beginner to confident speaker.”

“I've studied Spanish on and off for many years and the story method—by tying Language concepts to narrative—has made it much easier to remember tricky words and tenses while also learning about Spanish culture.”

Tim Maguire

Canada
“The course is exceeding all my expectations. You make the grammar section so clear and easy to assimilate. Moving on effortlessly in the stories is pleasurable and quite exhilarating as I understand what I am hearing much more easily. These courses are worth every penny”

David

“I've done a lot of self study of Spanish through various apps, and while I've gotten good value from that work, I really appreciate having this guided approach with clear explanations and fun exercises. I'm eager to hear more of the story!”

Marc Drummond

Twin Cities, MN, USA
“I had plateaued using my online language learning app and needed to try something difference. StoryLearning gave fresh impetus to my German learning and comprehension in what seemed a very natural way”

Howard Webb

United States
“I am in Germany every month for work. I started German lessons on a different app which gave a decent foundation but did not help in speaking or listening. I’m amazed how quickly this course has helped me understand German conversation.”

Steven

USA
“I’m only on Lesson 3, but I do like the structure of the course already. Really have high hopes for this one! Still, what comes out does depend on what you put in!”

Leo

United Kingdom
“Really enjoying the course and effortless flow of the course. It is amazing how far the various stories take you in the language in terms of grammar, pronunciation, vocabulary, etc. without you being conscious of the progression.”

Brendan Vermaak

Spain
“I am really enjoying this French course. I am almost halfway through it, and I have learned so much already. I think if I get a tutor, I can really deepen my knowledge of the language and put it into practice.”

Kipp Wilde

“Very impressed so far! Olly explains and breaks down the rules of Spanish so well, with lots to learn right from the start, and strikes a great balance between challenging and fun. I have learnt more in 1 module than in months of free apps!”
