MimicMethod
My name is Idahosa (pronounced ee-DOW-ssah) Ness and I am the founder of The Mimic Method.
Currently, I speak five languages fluently – Spanish, French, Portuguese, German and Mandarin Chinese. In each one, people have mistaken me before for a native speaker (but for Chinese it only works on the phone).
The secret to my language learning success is my focus on “Learning by Ear.” My primary focus is on the sounds. how to hear them, and how to pronounce them. Once I master the sounds, I pick up new words and phrases by mimicking people in conversation. The Mimic Method is my system for you to learn a language by ear.
On this channel you'll find lots of valuable language learning & pronunciation tips (by yours truly), language missions & case studies with our method, and interviews with popular channels in the language learning & travel space.
