Introducing The Superpolyglotbros


The Superpolyglotbros aka Matthew & Michael Youlden are ginger-bearded identical twins with a passion for all things language. With over 10 years of professional experience in the language industry, from translation to language teaching and accent coaching, if there’s something to do with ‘languages’, it’s safe to say they’ve done it. Having achieved worldwide recognition for both learning and teaching languages in a record amount of time, the twins feature extensively in international media and speak more than 20 languages, with the list ever growing. Combining their own methods with a wealth of teaching experience at all levels, they believe that anyone, with the right tools and lots of fun, can learn a new language.

Entertainment and enjoyment combined with an effective teaching method to retain the information. The brothers have a great voice and this enhances the audio experience. I listen to the Spanish lessons while cooking and baking. My boys teas me when I repeat the same chapter over and over again but this is a small price to pay for perfection.
Please can we have more audio books by The Superpolyglotbros.

Perfect!

I went through both books of Paul Noble and felt that there was something missing. So I got this one and it turned out to be the perfect compliment to the Paul Noble's books. The approach is a bit different. While Paul Noble makes one repeat the same concept many many times (which helps a lot for me to memorize the grammar, e.g. conjuctions of verbs), this one goes more fluently, moving from scenario to scenario, introducing new vacabulary, grammar concepts and phrases seemlessly. The "cheat sheets" at the end of each lesson is the high light for me, which helped me to expand my vacabulary significantly with almost no effort.

The only thing that disturbed a bit was the constant mix of English and Spanish in the same sentence. It would be better to always stick to one language in the same sentence, then repeat it in English if needed.

All in all I'm very glad that I took this book. I recommend both this one and the one of Paul Noble. Though some topics overlap, more often they complement each other. After going through both, one will certainly have a solid basis for further learning.

A big help for self-learning

I came into this after doing the first Paul Nobel audiobook as well as a bit of duo lingo, so I cannot speak for the complete beginner. However, this course is amazing, it is fantastic to hear real conversations from the get go and has really improved my comprehension, reading, etc.

I found it best to listen to a new chapter each day but also listen again to the chapter you heard the day before. I would also following along with the PDF for the second listen. I found this reinforced my learning and it took me just over a month to the finish the course like this with about 30 minutes a day. I returned to Spanish book I had bought to practice reading which I was finding impossible to read, and now I can actually read it without much issue!

My only complaint is as the brothers sound exactly the same, it can be challenging to work out who is saying what when listening to their conversations! However, I've just started listening to their next audio tape and they have fixed this using left and right channels to separate the voices

Excellent way to learn!

If you want to brush up Spanish this is fantastic. I did standard grade Spanish back in the day and this got me back up to that level by the end, without becoming too slow and boring. Now I am doing their Fundamental Spanish course and sometimes listen to the lessons a couple of times before moving on as it's new material for me. I really hope these guys make courses for some other languages, or a third Spanish course.

Fantastic pace for brushing up
