If you’re new here, perhaps you haven’t heard of my “magic sentences”, which I give away for FREE and form the cornerstone of how I learn languages fast. These are the sentences that I always learn first when learning a new language. They are incredibly practical for your first conversations! We’ve included audio files as well so no need to guess how the sentences are pronounced.
New this week we released the toolkit for GERMAN, in addition to French, Chinese, Spanish and Japanese.

Remember that video in which I showed you an AI language tutor that I created with my team? Initially it was just a fun idea, but when I took a look at the comments, I knew we were onto something:
‘’This could legitimately be the future of tutoring in any subject.‘’
‘’I want this for Spanish so badly. I’m using ChatGPT to serve as a “Spanish tutor” and it’s been so genuinely nice. But what you’re creating takes this to a whole new level.‘’
‘’This seems perfect for me. Social anxiety for speaking in foreign languages is what holds me back tbh’’
‘’Omg please I need to sign onto this RIGHT NOW!!‘’
’’This is genius! An AI that teaches you languages without having social anxieties is just amazing.
But we also got lots of interest from investors. All very good signals! And so we went ahead and recruited a small team and are now working on a prototype that will be available for public use!
This AI language tutor will be able to talk about any topic in whatever language you like. It will have a long-term memory and know exactly what your level is. It will also keep track of how many words you can both understand and speak in your target language. And on top of that, it will be 100 times cheaper than a human language tutor.
We’ll still need human teachers, of course, but this could be the future of learning a foreign language without the anxiety, at a price that most people can actually afford. We need about a month to launch the first version. (That’s the plan at least!)
As soon as it’s ready we’ll invite a small group of email subscribers to work with us on improving the product before we launch it to the public. Want to become one of the first users? Sign up via this link and we’ll let you know when this thing goes live: streetsmartlanguages.com/ai

People ask me all the time how I learn languages. Part of the answer is that I have a few key phrases (which I call my “magic sentences”) that I learn each and every time I learn a new language. Learning these 38 sentences FIRST will teach you A LOT about how a language works, even if you know nothing about it beforehand. They’re also incredibly practical and in my experience are literally often all you need to have a simple conversation in any language.
My team and I have just put together, for the first time, these sentences & their translations in Spanish, Mandarin Chinese, French, and Japanese (INCLUDING AUDIO!) And we’re literally giving them away for FREE – just sign up at the link below and you’ll get an email with the PDF of these sentences translated into a language of your choosing and MP3 audio. Bon voyage!!! join.streetsmartlanguages.com/

My team and I have been hard at work recently on putting together a Mexican street interview channel where we get Mexicans’ opinions about interesting topics. Here’s the first video, personally I thought it was extremely interesting and I hope you enjoy as well! And remember to subscribe, more vids coming soon! 😁 And beyond just being fun to watch, the channel is also bilingually subtitled so watching it will help improve your Spanish. (You're welcome!)

Hey everyone, I want to acknowledge the valid criticism of my previous video from the aviation community. At the time this incident happened this is honestly how I felt, but I have since learned that this situation was not nearly as dangerous as I initially thought. In a subsequent video the pilot @74gear helps us take a more objective look at the situation and what actually happened, and more generally how safe planes are. You can watch that video here.

Wow! 5 million subscribers. I want to take a moment to let you guys in on a little bit of where I came from.
Four years ago I was a nerdy programmer. (I’m still nerdy, by the way.) It was decent money but I was…bored. Not bored in the sense of, “this job sucks, I wish I was playing video games right now,” but bored in the sense of, there’s something greater calling me. I felt this powerful, inexplicable sense that I had a mission in this world.
For some people this is a religious feeling, but for me it was weirdly…cultural. It’s hard to explain, but I guess I felt like I wanted to connect people from different countries to one another in a way that made people feel good. Like, to bring a little bit of my own joy and positivity into the world, from one culture to another.
And so four years ago I quit my job.
And yeah, maybe this all sounds stupid to you. “Get a real job, hippie!” And I get it, because sometimes I think this way when I hear this kind of stuff from other people. But that’s honestly how I felt. Like, how else does one get the motivation to leave a six-figure salary and a promising career as a software engineer to…become a full-time YouTuber? It literally doesn’t make sense. It’s not a rational decision unless you’re driven by something that’s frankly a little bit out there.
And I doubted myself constantly. For the first year or two of making videos I was earning below the federal poverty level, and by the second year I was ready to quit. It was so depressing making videos that no one watched. It just felt like no one cared. I remember dusting off my old coding interview books – my plan was to start studying for another software job.
And then something…just clicked, and my videos started going viral in a way that felt like, hey, maybe there’s something here after all. Ironically, the video that finally took off was something I almost didn’t post, until a friend encouraged me: “why not post it? Just one last time, and *then* go back to the software job.”
And fast forward to today, and this whole thing has succeeded beyond anything I could have ever imagined. Thanks for helping me on my mission to make the world a little smaller!

I'm Xiaoma, a polyglot who has studied dozens of languages. Until the age of 18 I grew up speaking exclusively English, and then I got the chance to learn Mandarin and live in Beijing for a year where I fell in love with Chinese food, language, and culture. This expanded my appetite to learn about cultures, foods, and languages from all around the world and now I share this passion with all of you!
