Hey guys ,

I'm currently in need of learning Russian because there are so many materials that I would like to research that aren't available in English , I've found many types of courses but I was wondering what would be the most efficient methods in terms of learning/understanding as well as THE fastest in learning a new language .

I've found many things that I wanted to experiment with and to see for myself if they would be of benefit .

Basically I know nothing about Russian yet .

I've found various accelerated learning techniques that sound incredible , Some I've tried before and worked and others are new and I'm willing to experiment with .

This thread will be basically my journal related to my own experimentation with this .

Here are the methods I'm going to experiment with :

Win Wenger's Borrowed Genius
Burt Goldman's Quantum Jump
Photoreading & Direct Learning
61 hour Language Immersion(Learning & speaking a language in 2.5 full days through Brainwashing)

I'll expand further on my plan with these methods in the coming posts .

If anybody is willing to join , PM me .

P.S If you don't think this "could" work , No need to add critical negative comments about it , Only healthy skepticism , This is an open-minded experiment after all ,Thanks

I for one am healthily skeptical.

Please keep us posted on how these miracle strategies work for you in your study of Russian.

I'm curious what type of material are you interested in?

You may want to first check out the Wikipedia Photoreading article.

Sounds interesting. How do you intend to do this?

Here's the 61-hour deal:

Couldn't find the actual experiment, though. Imagine that if this technique works, you'd have to place quite an
amount of trust in your instructors.

It'd be interesting to see some actual results from this - interviews from people that have gone through it. If this were indeed successful, I'm pretty sure we'd all be lining up around the planet to learn a language this way.

I'd never heard of this before your posting.

When the brain learns a new ability -- physical or mental -- it needs time to create physical connections. The more you practice, the more connections you create. There is no miracle.

I was trying to show healthy skepticism :-)

Again, we'd all be doing it if it worked.
