Interview with Daniela Maizner – Polyglot Talks
I’ve always found learning foreign languages a source of fascination. To even a bigger extent I’m amazed by people who reached fluency in 5 and more languages. Meeting and speaking to polyglots is really inspiring for me. I’m convinced we can learn a lot from them and improve the way we learn.
I’ve decided to hold a series of interviews with polyglots who blog about their language journey. My first guest is Daniela from “I simply love languages”. She’s from Austria, she speaks 9 languages. She’s a german teacher and a freelance translator.
In the interview we discuss
- motivation for studying languages
- useful online tools
- CPE preparation
- maintaining your languages level
- blogging
