I’ve listened to over 25 of Season 1 Learncraft Spanish podcasts and find them intriguing and excellent. Timothy has a unique style to get your mind working to remember phrases in a much easier way. It just makes sense. I’ve used other methods and they just weren’t working. But now it’s all starting to come together. I’m hopeful to be fluent within one year. Thanks Timothy!

I’ve paid quite a lot of money on a few popular Spanish language apps and never felt like I was really learning the language on a basic level. By chance I came across the LearnCraft Spanish podcast and even though I’ve only listened to a few episodes so far, the Spanish language is starting to make sense like it never did before with the apps. Timothy’s approach of focusing on the core elements of the language first and explaining why things are the way they are fits well with my style of learning. This podcast is quickly becoming an essential resource on my road to mastering the Spanish language.

I've spent hundreds and hundreds of hours learning Spanish but it has always felt so rote. At times, that makes it easier to remember things, but it also makes them leave my brain in no time. LearnCraft Spanish doesn't feel rote at all. Instead, it forces listeners to reason, and even the shortest lessons stick with me long after I'm done listening. For example, just identifying "that" in English and thinking about "que" in Spanish has been top of mind since listening to the episode of LearnCraft Spanish that discusses que. I had spent so much time in my life memorizing verb phrases ending in que without really knowing why the sentence was structured that way. In just one short podcast, I not only know why, but I won't forget it.

Learn Craft Spanish has propelled my understanding and knowledge more than any other program. This podcast and online lessons are the perfect way for anyone to learn Spanish in the correct order and get memory tricks for learning all sorts of topics. It uses a distinct method that really solidifies the language in the brain. I have told everyone I know who wants to start learning Spanish to start with LCS because it was recommended to me by a friend and it has been the driving resource for my studying.

I don't recall how I was introduced to Learncraft Spanish but I've now listened to a few episodes of the podcast in which the system is explained and, I must say that it makes sense. Having struggled to learn a language through traditional classroom methods, I have longed to find a system that would speak to me—providing a structure and enough encouragement to see me through. While many promise fluency in a short amount of time, I am somewhat skeptical of shortcuts and would prefer a system that “trains me to think in Spanish”, which is something that will take time. Tim has a great voice, speaks clearly and explains things clearly too. I am looking forward to continuing down this path with Learncraft Spanish.

I really like the approach Timothy takes with teaching Spanish in this podcast and with Learncraft Spanish. You start with the most difficult stuff, which makes everything else after that easier. I took 3 years of Spanish in College and never understood how to structure sentences in Spanish on my own (it’s all copy and repeat or memorize verb conjugation). This blew my mind when it was the easiest I had ever heard for mastering lo and la as “it”. It truly has you thinking the way native speakers think to structure your conversation.

Everywhere else teaches by cramming you with vocab and phrases to memorize but don’t make sense, because you don’t understand the structure and the thinking of the language. This method works so well for me. It starts with how the language thinks: sentence structure and words that connect thoughts together. All the vocab will come, but it’s useless if you can’t put it together into sentences. This is the way to really learn a language.

I’ve been following this group since they were Accelerated then changed to LearnCraft Spanish and I’v gone through their intro course. This podcast is very helpful to reinforce their philosophy and they are upfront that you have to want to learn Spanish(or anything new really) for your own reasons that resonate with you and not your spouse or partner or family etc. It also requires a lot of practice and work and I appreciate their upfront approach that you won’t progress without real effort. The good thing is that you feel like you re learning core concepts that apply across the board rather than rote memorization which I am terrible at. Practice, rinse and repeat !

I’ve listened to a few episodes of the LearnCraft Spanish Podcast and have already noticed a significant difference in the teaching style from anything else I have experienced. Along with being clear and concise, Timothy creates a visual of the language with analogies and descriptions to help us remember the meaning and purpose of a word in a given context. He also provides so many examples, that even if you’re not confident at first, you start figuring it out. Because you are understanding rather than just memorizing, I truly believe that with the required effort I can become fluent in Spanish.

I came from the same path as most—few years of Spanish in high school and college, but nothing stuck. What the LCS podcast showed me was that most language education models teach things out of order. Instead of learning simply “What’s the Spanish word for [blank],” Timothy instead dives right into sentence structuring and forming coherent thoughts with the help of visualization models. It’s not as easy or “fun” right off the bat, but 5 weeks in I feel much more confident in my ability to comprehend and communicate in Spanish. Language is not just a series of words, it’s a form of expression, and kudos to LCS for understanding that in their teaching.

This new podcast is great. I have taken a couple of courses from Timothy over the years and I highly recommend everything from LearnCraft. Before I took the Spanish in One Month Challenge (definitely do it!), I knew a lot of words but couldn’t speak or understand a Spanish sentence. I sounded like a toddler, that is when I wasn’t too afraid to speak. Timothy taught me the grammar that was foundational to fluency. Don’t waste time like I did - listen to the podcast, practice, and learn the right way.

Learning a new language is no easy feat, but this podcast offers a refreshing and innovative way of thinking about it. The approach is completely different from traditional methods, which might not work for everyone, but it’s definitely worth a try if you're looking for something new. The content is thoughtfully designed, and the Timothy the host make it engaging and enjoyable. If you're open to exploring a unique way to learn Spanish, this podcast is an excellent resource!

I have listened to a few episodes of Learn Craft Spanish as part of my quest to learn the language. I appreciate the way this program is structured because it teaches the structure of the language rather than vocabulary words alone. I feel that this will help me actually learn and the language rather than just memorizing.

I’ve completed 50 lessons in this podcast so far. Timothy, the instructor, isn’t kidding about front-loading the difficult stuff! Por vs para, etc. I end up spending a good deal of time studying each episode, along with the flashcards for each lesson. But I feel like I’ve got a MUCH deeper understanding of the language than I was getting from Duolingo. It’s almost like that spanish class I should have taken in school but didn’t. I would recommend this podcast to someone who is serious about spending time studying to learn the language.

Like I imagine everyone else leaving a review here, I’ve tried multiple ways to learn languages, including (but not limited to!) live classes, apps, books, podcasts, websites, bribery, prayer, extortion, combinations of the above, etc. Nothing’s ever worked. This is looking like it does. I’m not talking, of course, about the podcast format. I’m talking about the method laid out, bit by bit. His approach really comes down to an extremely effective reimagining of how to explain, and thereby teach, how language is learned. For me, anyway, it just makes sense. In the first five episodes alone he clearly explains every single reason why my learning has always sputtered out in the past by contrasting it with another approach that does. He’s got me trusting him at this point, so I’m aiming for the long haul!

Timothy’s Spanish podcast is the only resource that has ever truly helped me master the language. His clear, engaging teaching style makes even the most complex concepts easy to understand. Each episode is filled with practical exercises that reinforce what you’ve learned, and his explanations make challenging topics approachable. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, this podcast has been a game-changer for me, and I can’t recommend it enough!

I really can’t overstate how much I appreciate the approach to language learning (and learning in general) taken by LearnCraft. It is absolutely the most effective method for learning Spanish I’ve ever come across. I’ve learned quite a bit of Spanish vocabulary over the years, but I’ve never felt confident attempting to converse with someone in Spanish until finding LearCraft. By teaching me the actual structure of how the language works, I’ve come away with actual usable chunks of conversational Spanish and an eagerness to learn more.

The greatest thing about this program is that you truly start to think in Spanish. Instead of learning random words that you can with no real structure, you learn the fundamental structure of the Spanish language. And once you learn that, the more you learn, the more complex you will be able to make those sentences. As well, having that foundation of Spanish syntax allows, as you learn new words, to basically plug them in where they might fit. It definitely is a better and more intuitive way to learn Spanish!

I studied 4 years of advanced level high school Spanish. I studied abroad in Spain in college. I couldn’t say or understand more than baño. This is different. Building a mind palace, developing mind Mechanisms to learn the syntax first seems to be really working and engaging my mind in a different way. I like my Spanish alter ego. I’m enjoying this a lot.

I have studied many Spanish methods. All generally will get you to some level of proficiency. The key is consistency and daily practice. However, this approach is unique among the methods I’ve seen in that it abstracts the language to a grammatical structure and teaches you only the vocabulary you need to understand some key grammatical differences between English and Spanish. Once that foundation is solid, the course builds the vocabulary and usage. Moreover, the instruction is clear, well planned, and efficient. Overall an excellent course.

LearnCraft Spanish is one of the best language learning tools you can find. It’s short, vignette-type lessons really stick with you, especially if you practice all the skills you learn right after the podcast.

The LearnCraft Spanish Podcast is a unique way of teaching fluency in Spanish. I have tried numerous programs that all had me memorizing words and phrases, but I found myself frustrated and not able to follow native speakers in conversations. With the LearnCraft Spanish Podcast you learn the foundations of the language first, and then begin incorporating the most frequently used words into that foundation. I am excited about learning this new technique and improving my Spanish speaking ability. Rick B

The LearnCraft Spanish Podcast is a total gem. From the very first episode, you can tell this isn’t your average language learning resource. It’s a carefully designed system that really helps you build fluency step by step. What I love most is how structured it is. Each episode builds on the last, so you’re not just memorizing random words—you’re laying a strong foundation. The host is fantastic at breaking things down in a way that’s easy to follow. Even the tricky grammar concepts feel approachable, and he has a knack for helping you connect all the dots. If I had one small critique, it would be that I sometimes wish it moved faster with vocabulary. I tend to want instant results and all the tools right away! But I’ve come to realize that the real key to learning Spanish is focusing on grammar and structure first. Without that, all the vocabulary in the world won’t get you far. This method is teaching me the right way to learn, even if it takes a little more patience. This podcast is an awesome resource. It’s practical, engaging, and, most importantly, it really works. If you’re learning Spanish, I highly recommend giving it a listen. You won’t regret it!

Even from the first episode, I am hooked and I am confident these materials will help me reach fluency as long as I stick to doing the work everyday. Like it mentioned in the podcast , it’s all about mindset. Plus, I personally am a writer at heart, so being able to describe things in detail is what I want to be able to do in Spanish because I do that very well in English. I have a basic understanding of Spanish, but sometimes I get stuck when speaking because I don’t know all the words like I do in English, so I’m looking forward to not getting stuck anymore. Honestly, so far I am only 3 episodes in, and right now it seems to be slow moving for someone like me, but relearning the basics has no harm. I still plan to add this to my myriad of things I use to improve my Spanish daily and I look forward to when it picks up because I know it definitely will eventually. Give it a try, every little bit can help! I also noticed on here I can look at the transcript and read along which I enjoy because I am huge reader! Thought I would add that since I’ve been listening mostly through which doesn’t have that option as far as I know.

I love the thought process of this podcast on teaching and learning Spanish! Instead of teaching in a way that is broken up in non-connecting pieces, Timothy teaches in a way where you can learn the foundational pieces and build on your learning journey in a way that’s very applicable! I’m looking forward to fluency!!!

This podcast is AMAZING! I have tried to learn Spanish before and have struggled to make it stick. I really love the approach of this podcast by starting with the grammar to build a foundation before memorizing phrases. I also loved the approach of using mind palaces to remember appropriate ways of using the different tenses! It is truly a great podcast and I highly recommend!

Timothy and his team are absolutely amazing! They’re always on the lookout for ways to approve not only the podcast but also all the lessons they release each day. I’ve taken the 30-day challenge a couple of times and have been a huge fan of the podcast for three or four years now. I keep coming back to Timothy and his team to brush up on my Spanish.

I discovered this podcast a little over a year ago and since then have recommended it to everybody I know who has mentioned either learning or wanting to learn Spanish. I can’t believe someone can put this much time and effort into something and make it completely free as well as have all the episodes transcribed and available to read

You will learn to speak Spanish, not just learn words. I have begun my journey multiple times with other apps and resources, but nothing like this. I am actually learning the language.

There is no other language learning program like this! I feel like this is the missing component that I’ve been looking for after years of researching, watching YouTube, and trying various language learning methods.

I wish I had found this podcast sooner. I studied Spanish previously but was still confused on when to use ser/estar and por/para. The LearnCraft Spanish podcast does an amazing job of creating short but impactful lessons focusing on a few things at a time. This has helped me to understand and create sentences that make sense, rather than having stilted conversations made up of high school Spanish. I also appreciate that Timothy helps create memory palaces so that I have an easier time recalling different verb tenses and pronouns. If you’re interested in learning and retaining Spanish, this is the perfect podcast.

We tried some of the other language learning apps to no avail. You’re memorizing vocabulary words. LearnCraft teaches you how to speak Spanish and why you say words in the order they’re spoken. I look forward to listening to more episodes.

I love this podcast! I honestly can’t believe it’s free! I took a year of college Spanish (which set my up with a great foundation), and still, each episode, I have learned something new and extremely valuable. I seriously love the “backwards” approach to the LCS method - starting with the most common used words first. I felt a bit frustrated after college only having mastered present tense and not feeling like I could truly communicate with others as much as I wanted to, lacking past and future tenses. I feel like I am making genuine and meaningful progress in Spanish, which has been very rewarding. I tell everyone that I’m using the LCS podcast.

I have watched several videos on the Learn Craft Spanish podcast, they are great! In the past, I have learned a bunch of words and some conjugations, but I can’t have a decent conversation. The videos have a different approach to help you think in Spanish and to concentrate on the most used words, and how to use them so you can be fluent.

I’ve really enjoyed the LearnCraft Spanish Podcast because it’s so been helpful to me to learn Spanish in a really logical and systematic way. I’ve gained a lot of ground in a short amount of time, especially with speaking. It truly is different than any other method out there, but the way Timothy explains things makes confusing or troubling concepts make sense. It’s not easy, but if you put time and effort into practicing what you’re learning, you will see noticeable results fairly quickly. Something I really appreciate is the ability during the podcast try to come up with the Spanish sentence on my own after Timothy has taught something, and then hear the native speaker say it. This, combined with Timothy’s ability to break things down in such simple but extremely helpful ways has been a game changer for me. I have recommended the podcast and the One Month Challenge to several of my friends who are learning Spanish as well, and they have all benefitted immensely from it as well for the same reasons. I am so grateful that all of the content on the podcast is free; it’s such an incredible gift! So thank you to Timothy and his team for putting out such beneficial and useful content that is truly making a difference in people’s language learning journey. It has definitely changed the way I learn and speak Spanish as no other program or course ever have. Gracias por esto!

I have been listening to the Learncraft Spanish Podcast for about 6 months now and am really enjoying it. I was having trouble conjugating my verbs, and I find that I am much quicker with recall now. The focus on the most frequently used words makes sense to me. I would like to see more brief conversations as part of the podcast after each week to work on my listening comprehension in a conversational setting.

I am thoroughly enjoying the approach to Spanish learning taken by LearnCraft Spanish. Teaching sentence structure and the most commonly used words upfront is brilliant. It really appeals to my sense of logic! Thank you!

Learncraft Spanish is unlike anything I've ever experienced before. Here it is: Whenever you explore something, you start on the outside and work your way in, right? So, in language learning it's customary to start with the "basics." That's greetings family, occupations, and how to book a reservation (you KNOW I'm right!). From there, of course, you delve deeper. Then, it's time to get to the heart of things, the grammar. And that's when you decide you've had enough. What Timothy does is exactly the opposite. He starts INSIDE and then works outward. He starts at the center, the core, at the heart. He helps you understand what's going on in the heart, and from there, it all starts to fall together. Timothy turns your world upside down. He'll have you scratching your head, and then you realize that you've learned some things, and that you have learned how to learn! My Mexican friends like to tell me that some things are "vale la pena," or worth the pain. Learncraft is definitely vale la pena.

I love the way Timothy explains everything for multiple learning styles. I feel like I’ve learned way more than I did in my high school Spanish classes. I look forward to every episode!

I LOVE this podcast! It’s the first podcast I recommend to my non-Spanish speaking friends and family. I’ve spent years studying Spanish, and with this podcast everything is clicking and I’m learning so quickly! LCS approaches learning Spanish different from any other way I have studied and IT WORKS! The layout of each episode is well structured and easy to follow. 10/10 recommend!

I started with LearnCraft by joining their one month challenge over the summer. My sister and I wanted to work on improving our speaking skills after years of letting our Spanish knowledge languish. We were really surprised by how challenging and insightful the lessons are. We both have studied Spanish a lot but have not achieved fluency. I really like how they put together different topics in a new way with the focus on speaking and high use words. Even some of the simplest lessons uncovered long standing mistakes I wasn’t aware of. I learned so much that month and am continuing to study by working through the podcasts. If you are looking for a Spanish program that actually helps you be able to put together everything you’ve learned and be able to speak then LearnCraft is the best!

I recently started this program and have found it to be very helpful. It starts off slow but that is by design so that you (the student) can have a solid foundation to start your learning journey from. I feel that even intermediate learners could find value in this program and review the basics. Thank you.

I’ve tried a couple Spanish apps (won’t name names) and learned things that were helpful for simple greetings, ordering food, and asking directions ect but I never felt that I was truly learning the language. I am 30 episodes into the LCS podcast and already feel that I have a much deeper understanding of the language and have learned twice as much as I had learned in the apps by this point. One of my favorite things about this course is the focus on the way native Spanish speakers say and phrase things. Stoked to keep up on my Spanish now, the way Timothy teaches makes it fun and not feel like the homework I used to procrastinate on!

Best podcast for trying to learn Spanish. I learned more in the first 5 episodes than anything else I’ve ever tried

I have listened to the podcast up to episode 70 and counting. Learncraft Spanish has greatly benefited my independent learning more than any other program I have used. The LCS approach to engaging words based on frequency is excellent, but even more important than that is the approach to tackle the subjunctive and other complex sentence structures early on so that the learner has a foundation upon which to build. In conversations with my girlfriend, a native speaker, the subjunctive, conditional, and other more complex sentence structures are needed all the time. For me, I do not use the memory palaces because I am more of a charts and memorization learner, so I cannot weigh in on that, but the verb conjugations that I have memorized have a "home" in the sentence templates I learn from LCS. I personally find that the podcast benefits me most when I use a notebook and write the translations first. Excellent free resource!!

This is an amazing resource to help you get started on your Spanish journey! No more talking about colors, you’ll be expressing ideas (in the subjunctive) in no time.

I’ve listened to about 20 episodes now, and I’ve learned more than I ever did taking Spanish classes in high school and college! I know a decent amount of vocab from over the years, but I now feel like I’m actually on track to being able to put sentences together and have a conversation in Spanish! Highly recommend!!

I’ve been trying to learn Spanish for years now. Once I paired this podcast with the virtual text book on the website it became so much easier. I made more progress in the last few weeks then I did in the last few years. Loved it so much I shared the podcast and online course with 4 other friends!

I love how LearnCraft Spanish uses patterns and phrases that are actually common in the Spanish language, rather than the typical, stale scripts you find elsewhere. My brain just digests it so much better while I’m listening throughout my workday. The speed and intonation are perfect for me, making it easy to follow along. I highly recommend it as a refreshing and effective new approach to learning Spanish! (I listen on Spotify usually but couldn’t find out how to leave review there)

I have tried to learn Spanish a few times, mostly through memorizing words on apps. It has always felt defeating, and I’ve had a hard time sticking with it because it felt so impossible to make any significant progress. I’ve only listened to 11 episode so far, but I feel much more empowered… And understand how “ learning to think like a Spanish speaker” can help me much more than memorization alone.
