"Vordering word nie deur geluk of ongeluk behaal nie, maar deur daagliks aan jouself te werk." - Epictetus (Greek Stoic philosopher)
Hi!
My naam is Andreas . Ek is die stigter van Yureeca . 'n Paar jaar gelede was ek net soos jy. Probeer om 'n nuwe taal aan te leer en misluk erg.
Sedert ek 'n jong seun was, was ek nog altyd verward oor die aanleer van tale. Hoekom is dit so moeilik ? Hoe sluit dit alles aan? Hoekom vergeet ek steeds woorde die volgende dag?
Elke dag het die onderwyser van my verwag om woorde te onthou om my oor te vra. Maar maak nie saak hoe hard ek probeer het nie, dit wou net nie vashou nie .
Voel jy bekend? Eindelose skrik om honderde woorde in 'n vreemde taal te probeer memoriseer.
Maar ek het altyd bly wag dat die onderwyser vir my sê HOE . Hoekom het die onderwyser nooit gesê hoe ek soveel woorde in so 'n kort tydjie kon memoriseer nie? Hoekom was dit altyd daarop gefokus om resultate te kry? En nooit die proses om dit te doen nie?
Ek het nooit die antwoord gekry nie. En daarom het ek dit opgegee.
Fast forward about 20 years. I met a wonderful person who is now my wife. The only challenge was the language barrier, as she is Korean.
But of course, I had no choice. I needed to learn the Korean language.
Maar as 'n Noord-Europese leer 'n Asiatiese taal. Dit was geen maklike prestasie nie . Ek het elke dag gesukkel om te leer. Ek het eers na taalskole gegaan. Toe het ek taalleertoepassings afgelaai. Ek het ook handboeke probeer lees.
Tyd en geld het uitgestort. Ek het aanhou om dieselfde ou patrone te herhaal. Eerstens het ek 'n paar basiese beginsels geleer. My vaardighede het 'n bietjie verbeter. Toe vergeet ek van die basiese beginsels. Dit was twee tree vorentoe, een tree terug soort ding.
Was it fast? No. Was it effective? Nope. Did I know what I was doing? No!
Die probleem wat ek gehad het, was dat ek nie geweet het hoe leer werk nie. Wat maak dat die brein wat ons leer stoor? Oral sê hulle wat om te leer, maar nie hoe en hoekom nie.
En dit was toe ek my groot eureka- oomblik gehad het. Daar moet 'n ander manier wees om tale te leer.
So ek het boeke begin lees. Baie boeke. Boeke oor neurowetenskap , taalleer en leer in die algemeen. Om uit te vind hoe die brein werk. Aangesien breinstudie nog in sy vroeë stadiums is, was dit alles vars uit die drukker.
Ek moes leer wat in ons brein gebeur wanneer ons iets nuuts leer . Ek moes die geheime bestanddeel van leer vind. Om te onthul wat ons keer om te leer.
Intussen het ek aanhou om verskillende nuwe maniere van leer te probeer. Het nuwe bekende programme vir taalleer gevind. Regte taalonderdompeling. Fisiese flitskaarte. Het voortgegaan om taalskool toe te gaan. Dit was 'n paar oukei maniere van leer. Dit "kan" vir jou werk.
Maar hulle was gewoonlik nie gebruikersvriendelik nie en het selde gefokus op wat belangrik was in die brein terwyl hulle leer.
Ek het voortgegaan om die woorde wat hulle vir my gekies het oor en oor te leer. Ek het bly belangstelling verloor .
Opgee was nie 'n moontlikheid nie . Ek moes vinniger, slimmer en beter leer.
Uiteindelik het die dag aangebreek waar ek genoeg gehad het. As dit gedoen gaan word, moes ek dit self skep.
Ek het in my grot ingegaan en wou nie uitkom voordat ek die DING gehad het nie.
Ek het neurowetenskap geneem en dit met programmering gemeng. As kersie op die koek het ek alles bygevoeg wat ek met betrekking tot taalleer kon kry. Dit alles het gelei tot 'n hulpmiddel vir die skep van taalmeesters .
Ek het uit my grot gekom met Yureeca in my hande.
Did it work? Yes!
En dit is toe dat ek besef het dat dit my honderde ure en duisende dollars kon bespaar het as dit net bestaan het toe ek begin het. Al die stadige maniere van leer het net my tyd en geld gemors.
Vir jare doen hulle dieselfde ou ding. "Lees 'n boek en herhaal na my." of "Jy moet dit leer, maar hoe om dit te doen, moet jy self uitvind." Uiteindelik kon ek uit hul kettings breek en die resultate kry wat ek verdien het. Blitsvinnig.
Die werklike probleem is dat die ou stelsels nie omgee oor hoe ons brein werk nie.
Sodra ek besef het om te leer, moet ons 'n paar stappe volg en met die brein werk, nie daarteen nie. Dis toe dat ek vinnig begin leer het!
Aanvanklik het ek dit nie besef nie. Maar dieselfde tegnieke werk vir omtrent enigiets wat jy in die lewe wil leer.
So nou weet jy hoekom ek besluit het om Yureeca te skep.
Dit het my baie lank geneem om uit te vind wat nodig is. Ek het baie frustrasie en pyn verduur. Maar dit was die moeite werd .
It makes me learn thousands of words super fast.
Wat my vroeër maande geneem het, kan ek binne dae klaarkry. En ek bly dit vir altyd onthou .
And now, we at Yureeca bring it to you.
Ons hoop jy vind dit net so kragtig soos ons.
