Hello and welcome to 3 Minute Languages

Learn to speak French, Spanish, German, Italian or Portuguese

Hello, bonjour, hola, hallo, ciao and olá!

I’m Kieran and I’m a language tutor based in the UK, and I also create online courses and write books to make language learning accessible to all.

My books and online courses are based on the method I developed for teaching languages, which I've been using in all my classes for many years. The method will get you speaking quickly, without the struggle normally associated with language learning.

I’ll not bore you with my life story or intricate details of the history of the method I know you probably just want to start learning now, so I’ll let you get on with it. (If you do want to learn more about the method, you can find it here)

I have created three series of language courses available in French, Spanish, German, Italian and Portuguese. They're called: '3 Minute Languages', 'Building Structures' and 'Quick Guides'. You can get any of my courses for the discounted price of $10 if you use the coupon code 3MINUTE on checkout!

3 Minute Languages

The 3 Minute Languages courses are perfect for the complete beginner. They will get you speaking a language from scratch, assuming you know absolutely nothing. You will be amazed at how quickly you’re able to put sentences together. And you will memorise new words and phrases easily without even trying.

Building Structures

The Building Structures courses are a revolutionary way to look at foreign language acquisition; you will learn how any language can be broken down into around fifteen structures. Each course focuses on a different structure, and you will learn how to form it, make it negative and turn it into a question. Each structure gives you a huge amount to say, and once you’ve learnt all fifteen structures, you will know everything about the language. All you have to do is fill in the gaps with words to form a sentence. These courses are for students who are slightly familiar with the language, and what to boost their progress.

Quick Guides

The Quick Guides are grammar guides. I recommend these for students who have already been learning the language, and would like to accelerate your learning. The Quick Guides are perfect for anybody who wants an in-depth look at a specific grammar point within the language.

French - Verbs 1

Spanish - Verbs 1

I've also created two extra courses focusing on English grammar for speakers of other languages:

Fly Through English - Verb Tenses

Learn English with sentences - If clauses

And you can now learn maths using the 3-minute method:

Percentages

Fractions

I hope you enjoy, and "Happy Learning" :-)
