In this episode, I talk about the 4 main types of learning styles and why it would be beneficial to reflect on what our learning styles might be, especially as we look towards setting goals to help us achieve them or the New Year's Resolutions we made!

In this episode of Michelle Learns Gaelic, I share some of my thoughts on Duolingo. We all know there are pros and cons, but sometimes articulating them out loud can help us make a more active decision about whether the app is really suiting our needs and helping us achieve our goals.

New Gàidhlig word for this episode: cailleach-oidhche (the common owl)....what kind of owl is Duo anyway??

Halò, a charaid! Are you learning Gàidhlig? Do you feel stuck in the beginning or intermediate stages of your learning journey and like you’ll just never be able to improve? Do you have questions about the language or the learning process that you seem to not be able to get answers to?

If so, you are not alone. My name is Michelle Hughes and on “Michelle Learns Gàidhlig”, I’ll be sharing with you my journey to fluency.

I’ll be exploring topics such as:

-Is immersion learning the best way to learn?

-Is Duolingo actually useful?

and more!
