如今他們被稱為多語達人，但他們也曾程度爛過、失敗過、壓力爆表過，但後來發現藉由興趣能學好語言。這次他們將透過故事、模仿、即興表演和遊戲等方式，呈現學語言能如何轉變你的生活、豐富你的身份認同，身處世界各地都感到自在。
They sucked. They stressed out. They failed. Then they conquered. Language learning gurus and polyglot lifestyle experts use storytelling, imitation, improvisation, and games to show how learning a new language -- or several -- can transform your life, expand your identity, and make you feel at home anywhere in the world.
Isaac Myers
Isaac 原以為自己夠認識世界，直到八年前開始學語言並到各地旅行，才明白自己的思考和眼界還只是根深蒂固的美國人。透過學語言，他意外發現通往世界和自己的途徑：不同文化讓他學會多種思考方式，胸懷更寬、應變能力更好；不同語言讓他發展出不同性格，他發掘自己還有很多面向和潛力；語言也幫助他克服了一些弱點，結交更多各地的好朋友。因此他相信學語言真的能轉變人生，也希望讓更多人有這樣豐富的體驗。
Isaac started to learn languages and travel eight years ago. It was then that he realized how his thoughts and perception were deeply rooted in his particular American cultural context. Language learning became an unexpected channel between him and the world. Interacting with other cultures taught him to think in different ways and be more adaptable; learning new languages nurtured different sides of his personality, uncovered parts of himself he hadn’t realized existed, and helped him overcome many of his weaknesses. Not least, he was able to make new friends from all over the world. Isaac believes in the power of language learning to transform someone’s life, and hopes that more and more people will be able to have this enriching kind of experience.
