Synopsis

Want to sound like a native in 6 different languages? Our guest today, Idahosa Ness, is exactly that.   Idahosa is an American who grew up speaking only English. But later on in life, while he was learning Spanish studying abroad in Mexico - he realised he was studying it different to everyone else. He just sounded better, more natural. He didn’t have an American accent and sounded much more like a local.   That realisation only became stronger when he moved to China - everyone was trying to mimic Chinese tones but were struggling. He wasn’t.    It was only when he was in Brazil, learning his third foreign language and teaching English that he had a Eureka moment while riding the bus after drumming practice.   Since then Idahosa learned to speak two more languages - French and German. He also broke down his own ability to mimic people’s accents, and started a business - the Mimic Method.   He now helps people learn to talk like a native in 6 languages by recording themselves singing foreign language songs onl
