Fastest Way To Learn A Foreign Language?

Last night I was trying to come up with a plan to learn Brazilian Portuguese as fast as possible and as easy as possible. (my wife is Brazilian)

Anyways, I was make a list of different ways to learn, and then I remembered modeling. Modeling just means find someone who has learned the language before and do what they do.

I called one of my wife's friends and asked them how they learned it. They suggested a great CD set that totally immerses you in a foreign culture, writing, speaking, writing, and listening.

I am going to order this tape course, and try to become fluent in Portuguese in less than 6 months.

If you have any other suggestions please let me know at lukeblaise1m@excite.com

Thanks,

Luke
