August Focus: Language, Learning & the Limits of AI

This month, we dive deep into the evolving relationship between artificial intelligence and language learning, asking whether it’s a revolutionary ally—or a looming replacement. You’ll find a comprehensive guide to choosing the right language teacher and expert advice on what to expect during your first 90 days of language learning. To keep your progress alive, we’ll explore proven strategies to stay motivated, and challenge you to see how far you can really go in a one-month language sprint.
Beyond techniques, we reflect on the emotional intelligence of polyglots, and close the loop with a thoughtful look at what AI still can’t replace—the human core of language, empathy, and connection.
