Key takeaways from the episode:
A coach is a vehicle that can take you fast from where you are to where you want to be. The idea behind coaching is that you take the person's goals, and you design the road from where they are to those goals.
The learning curriculum should be specifically designed since people have different personalities, and not everybody learns the same.
Students should have fun learning the language.
In learning a language, the goal is to use it as a tool for what you want to be doing rather than seeing it as the end goal.
The 4 steps of learning a language are Selection, Activation, Immersion, and Safe Practice.
Keep learning and make sure that you're really doing the things that you're interested in.
