Monolingual Stephen is the next exception. A researcher who is also an avid language learner, he believes that in order to become a better teacher or researcher it is important to understand the learning experience firsthand. I view my language experiences as part of my research. You have to always be in the mind of the acquirer. He also said that it is very helpful for researchers like him who are at different levels of learning. Currently his level of German, French and Spanish is C Level Contact List very high while his level of Chinese is lower because he recently I just started learning Chinese. He says learning a language is difficult. People always want to speak English to you. He enjoys attending story-themed classes to improve his Mandarin In his Advanced Languages he likes to spend time reading many polyglots who believe that immersive travel and learning can actually be counterproductive. Stephen agrees that this is the case with beginners as they can't understand enough to carry on a conversation. I'm much better off working on my own now in a Mandarin class than going to China. I'm not good enough yet. Stephen Krashen However he does feel that for advanced languages he can travel enough to be able to speak the language with the people he met Second Language Accent Language Acquisition Stephen thinks we may soon be able to master a good foreign language accent The perfect accent is within you Stephen Krashen, however, thinks we almost never use it because we're subconsciously afraid of sounding silly. It doesn't sound like me.
