Also I was six years old when I started learning English and along the way I also studied Latin and German - my mother tongue is Afrikaans - baby Dutch, as you know! My wife speaks Basque, Spanish, French and English ? I only mention this because when we met we had no language in common so I ended up teaching her all her basic English ? she was my first ever pupil."/>				<outline text=""/>				<outline text="So a few years ago I was really keen on doing an unconventional  audio-based Spanish course (in the sense of not blindly following standard pedagogic models and theories of language learning) for people thinking of living and/or working in Spain or other Spanish speaking countries. I wasn?t very hopeful that the established language learning publishers would be very interested so eventually I dropped the idea... until podcasting came along, of course!"/>				<outline text=""/>				<outline text="I have now finally managed to buy a mike, buy a mixer, discovered what a bloody difficult art voice recording is - hats off to the likes of you (the Elitist) and Dave Slusher (the Smoothie) - and recorded my first pod-lesson called, How to Really Learn Spanish - Podcast 1.

May I suggest a category ? ?Language Learning? (subdirectory: ?Spanish?) ? to distinguish it from ?Languages? which is currently used for non-English medium podcasts ? mine is in English. Also, it?s only 8:07 long so you might want to give it a listen. It is, as far as I can tell, a novel way of making use of this new medium (boing!) you might even want to consider mentioning it on the Daily Source Code."/>				<outline text=""/>				<outline text=""/>				<outline text="Hope the move goes well and welcome to England - another very weird country!"/>				<outline text=""/>				<outline text="Regards,"/>				<outline text=""/>				<outline text="Johan van Rooyen"/>				<outline text=""/>				<outline text="[1] http://public.xdi.org/=Johan"/>				<outline text="[2] http://www.ipodder.org/"/>				<outline text="[3] http://www.ipodder.org/"/>				<outline text=""/>				</outline>			<outline text="Really Learn Spanish" type="link" url="http://www.streamload.com/Johan0808/ReallyLearnSpanish/rss.xml"/>			<outline text="Johan van Rooyen" artist="Johan van Rooyen" type="artist">				<outline text="How to Really Learn Spanish" album="How to Really Learn Spanish" artist="Johan van Rooyen" type="album">					<outline text="How to Really Learn Spanish - Podcast 1" f="Macintosh HD:Users:adamcurry:Desktop:DSC-ShowPrep:How_to_Really_Learn_Spanish.mp3" sizeFile="3904402" type="song" whenFileCreated="11/16/04; 8:57:46 PM"/>					</outline>				</outline>			</outline>		<outline text="email about ipodder-ear">			<outline text="Adam"/>			<outline text=" "/>			<outline text="Had a similar problem... buds are still best where unobtrusiveness is important... even on a bus, it is nice if your neighbours can at least PRETEND you are not ignoring them.  (They fit inside a ski helmet better, too)"/>			<outline text=" "/>			<outline text="That said, headphones sound better... a very nice review site:"/>			<outline text="http://www.goodcans.com/"/>			<outline text=" "/>			<outline text="Of course big serious headphones look silly and some can't even be driven well by portables... not to mention hurting battery life.  However, there are headphones made just for portables:"/>			<outline text="http://www.goodcans.com/HeadphoneReviews/porta.htm"/>			<outline text=" "/>			<outline text="I own and use the Koss PortaPro.  It is wonderful.  Folds small enough to easily fit in a coat pocket.  Looks a bit dorky &amp; old fashioned.... but is robust  and sounds terrific.  (most of the Koss line-up is less impressive)"/>			<outline text=" "/>			<outline text="Sennheiser makes a PX100 at about the same price that sounds marginally better... it is sinificantly less robust."/>			<outline text=" "/>			<outline text="TIP OF THE DAY:"/>			<outline text="Whatever phones or buds you buy.... gold plated plugs are way better at resisting crackle."/>			<outline text=" "/>			<outline text="waiting for the snow at Whistler,"/>			<outline text="boB"/>			</outline>		</body>	</opml>
