Mathias C.

Mathias founded 10 Min Languages while learning English himself. He is at B1: he understands most of what he reads and hears, but speaking was hard. In August 2026 he started private lessons on Preply with his tutor, Ken, aiming for B2+. Between lessons he talks out loud with ChatGPT in the morning, while stuck in traffic.

Everything on this site comes from that experience: choosing a tutor, booking the first lesson, finding the right rhythm, and the small phrases that keep a conversation going when you’re stuck. When something is based on research rather than his own lessons, the article says so.
