On Wednesday 26 May from 6.45 to 8.15 pm, super polyglot bros Matthew and Michael Youlden will explain how they managed to learn 25 of the world's languages quickly and easily in an online lecture at Chemnitz Adult Education Centre. Participation is free of charge.

Anyone interested can register by midnight on 25 May at www.vhs-chemnitz.de, by email to fremdsprachen(at)vhs-chemnitz.de or by phone on 0371 488 4343 and will then receive an access link by email.

"Anyone can learn languages and it's even easier than you think," say Matthew and Michael Youlden. Even as young boys, the two Englishmen set themselves the lifelong goal of learning every language in the world. They have now mastered 25 of them. They explain how they achieved this in their presentation "Multilingualism? No problem! Multilingual language training for more effective learning".

The Youlden brothers have developed their own effective method for learning languages: They realised that the path to successful learning lies in the targeted integration and activation of existing knowledge from previously learned languages in the learning process. This applies to both vocabulary acquisition and mastery of grammar. "This allows you to learn foreign languages quickly, confidently and with a lot of fun," say the Superpolyglotbros.

With this in mind, the speakers present very practical ways in which a new language can be easily incorporated into everyday life in order to promote the learning process and motivation. Finally, all those interested will experience how an unknown language can be learnt in the shortest possible time.
