All of this is despite being a weak student of languages in school, and actually studying electronic engineering and only being able to speak English in his early 20s. He makes it his mission to inspire as many people as he can that anyone can learn a language, at any age, from anywhere in the world. And yeah. He's an ADHD dream. Enjoy the episode!
