Our priority is the learner. Always.

Our mission is to provide comparisons and recommendations for foreign language learners, so they do not waste any unncessary time on poor learning products and overpriced solutions.

So, how do we make money? Our partners compensate us, at no additional cost to the learner. This can influence the positioning of certain elements on Actual Fluency, but it never influences our recommendations, and reviews which are based on years of experience in the field. We do not accept payment in exchange for favourable reviews, or paid link placements. Here is a list of our partners.

AFP 50 – Benny Lewis: Language Encouragement

(Last Updated On: April 27, 2020)

In the season finale of the Actual Fluency Podcast I'm joined by none other than Benny Lewis. Benny has been a huge inspiration for me and today we talk about language encouragement and how the polyglot community has evolved over the years.

Season Finale!

We made it! It's episode 50 and that means the end of season 1. I'm so happy and grateful that you joined me on this journey. When one journey ends, another must begin. So the show will be on a break, before season 2 starts March 20th! I hope you'll join me again then for more language learning episodes and content.
