About Baby-Steps to Fluency

The world is made up of thousands of languages.

Because of this, you’ll never be able to communicate verbally with everyone.

However, I can make your journey a hell of a lot easier.

I’ve found that many beginning language learners (and even ones that would consider themselves intermediate or advanced) are struggling with finding the best ways to learn their target language(s).

Take myself, for example.

Before I really started to research how to best learn a language, I found myself just spinning my wheels.

I took four years of Spanish in high school and college.

Guess what?

That’s right, at the end of my studies I didn’t remember anything more than a few scattered phrases.

Obviously, after years of studying, this can discourage anyone. So I changed my tactics so that I can actually learn, and remember, the languages that I love so much. And now I want to help you do the same thing.

There are so many programs and tools out there it’s hard to process it all by yourself.

I’m dedicated to helping you process this information and finding out what works the best for your style of language learning.

This blog exists to assist other language learners in learning their target language(s) more effectively and have more enjoyment doing so.

About Fiona


I am a language enthusiast, writer, and lifelong student.

Having had my first experiences with language learning in a classroom, I know how ineffective classroom methods can be. I also know how hard self-study can be if you don’t know how you best study.

My goal is to help you find your ideal language studying methods so that you can dominate in your target languages.

  • I speak Dutch and English, learning Spanish and Russian.
  • I’m a Communication Studies major at university, and I’m really enjoying learning this aspect of language.
  • I love the outdoors, martial arts, shooting, and anything that gets me moving.
  • I’m also very interested in blogging, marketing, and personal branding.

So, that’s me in a nutshell. Feel free to connect with me on Twitter or send me an email!
