- That's the name of Benny Lewis's Website. It is also the name of a book he wrote. He is also the author of the "Language Hacking" books which are on the "Teach Yourself" website. The emphasis is on speaking, which is, after all, quite important! Why not do a few web searches, including YouTube, and have a quick look at his methodology for yourself?0 votedApril 10, 20230
- Is your arrangement with "Fluent in Three Months" for posing and reading Language Hacking Missions still in force? I found it very helpful and enjoyable a few years ago when I last used it ,but I can no longer find the part of your site on which we posted video links and watched our fellow students' efforts. Sad if it's gone, but nothing lasts forever! HenryApril 9, 202320
- Do you still have a dedicated section on your site for purchasers of the Benny Lewis Language Hacking books to post the links to the videos they make for each mission? I used to be a regular user of the facility but after a couple of years away I can't find it now. All best wishes! [email protected]February 16, 202200

Ending a Year, Starting another One
It is time to look back and assess <font color="#000000">whether or not</font> we have achieved our resolutions made at the end of last year. Unlike most people, I can say "Yes". There is a simple reason for that: I did not make any resolutions at all. In my opinion, only a small percentage of people succeed in keeping their resolutions. So why do we risk becoming frustrated as a result of making promises to ourselves which we know we shall not be able to keep? Perhaps we should try to be less ambitious in our resolutions, and perhaps we should make them at a less emotional time than Christmas. Then we might have a better chance of success.

Una cosa ècerto, non è la mia ultima. Da quando vivi in questa città? Tu sei nato qui! Sei fortunato! Ho stato qui due settimani soltanto, e già voglio restare e restare e restare. Che voglio fare? Be. Sono perito geometra e ho lavorato tutto il mondo, ma ora sono pensionato, perciò io non devo andare al ufficio di ogni giorno. Ma non voglio sedere in la mia poltrona aspettando Padre Tempo. Voglio ancora viaggiare per il mondo, voglio visitare i musei ovunque, e voglio imparare le lingue. Ho imparato un po di francese e un po di tedesco a scuola. Più tarde avevo le opportunità usare queste lingue affascinanti in Francia e Germania. Io non studiavo italiano a scuola, ma ho studiato latino. Perciò voglio studiare italiano adesso. Questo puó fare vivere le radice profonde del nostro mundo moderno. Per la stessa ragione, viaggio in Spagna e studio spagnolo. Da quando, tu domandi? Cominciavo studiando spagnolo fa quattro anno, ma italiano, sei settimane fa soltanto.May 13, 201830

Proposals for our Taxi Firm Requirement
Introduction
The aim of this proposal is to find a taxi firm to be used on a regular basis for our staff and clients by comparing advertising material from two car companies.
Factors
1. Telecars offers good references with many details but Streetlight Cabs cannot do so because it is a start up company.
2. Telecars offers a 24-hours service. That would be more convenient for those of our staff members who work shifts.
3. Streetlight Cabs cannot provide good long-distance travel. This would not satisfy the needs of our clients living in different cities.
4. Streetlight cabs cannot be booked online.
Conclusions
Taking those factors into account, I recommend that we choose Telecars as our regular taxi service firm.--------------------------------------------
<em>I thought your draft looked pretty good and my suggestions above are really quite minor. Most large companies have a "House Style" for items like this so you would naturally follow that.</em>
<em>All the best, Henry</em>
