    Hi

    Has anyone ever tried intensive listening? It's a language learning tenique recommended by Steve Kaufman who claims to be able to speak 20 languages.

    He recommends choosing a short audio clip, between 3-5 minutes long and listening to it repeatedly for over a week. He believes this is the best way to learn a language. He also suggests reading the audios transcript at the same time. I've tried it for the last two weeks but i can't say I have noticed any improvements.

    What do you think?
