Synopsis

A faster way to speak any language fluently and naturally, without learning isolated words and grammar rules.

This book is for language learners who want to achieve effortless conversations in their language of choice.

Lukas Van Vyve learned to speak 5 languages fluently and discovered along the way that becoming fluent is not just about memorizing grammar rules and word lists. It’s not even about immersing yourself in the culture.

Speaking a language fluently and naturally stems from observing and deconstructing how native speakers speak— and then building a system to help you speak like them.

In “Effortless Conversations”, Lukas outlines the Effortless Conversations Method he has been using in his language courses and workshops with thousands of students.

After using this method, you will be able to understand native speakers and, just as importantly, you will be able to express yourself using fluent sentences that simply roll off the tongue—all without memorizing endless word lists and grammar rules.

The Effortless Conversations Method is your fast-track to fluency for language students at any level.

Some of the things you'll learn in this book:

✔ The difference between a construction mindset and an observation mindset--and how the latter can remove all clumsiness and guesswork while speaking a foreign language.

✔ Why you should learn word chunks instead of isolated words if you want to speak without worrying about grammar.

✔ The #1 tool (and the only one that really works) to practice your listening comprehension finally understand native speakers, even if they go off at blazing speed.

✔ The memory techniques used by top language learners and '"memory champions" that will allow you to imprint vocabulary on your brain, so you never draw a blank in conversations anymore.

✔ How to set up a simple, easy to follow language learning routine that doesn't overwhelm you and builds long-term study habits--so you can make more progress in the next 12 weeks than you did in the past 12 months!
