Hey!
I'm Benny Lewis


I'm the founder of Fluent in 3 Months, and I help people just like you learn a language the faster, smarter way.

You can find out my language learning method if you subscribe to my free Speak in a Week course.

SIGN-UP For Your FREE Speak in a Week Email Course

Take my Speak in a Week language course, and you'll start speaking your target language in just seven days - whatever your current skill level.

    We won't send you spam. Unsubscribe at any time.

    I’m also a fun-loving Irish guy, a vegetarian, a full-time globe trotter and international bestselling author.

    I've been featured in numerous national media outlets, including The New York Times, Business Insider, Forbes, lifehacker, National Geographic and the BBC.

    I've spoken at two TEDx conferences, and I’ve been named National Geographic's Traveler of the Year and my YouTube videos and TikToks have been viewed many millions of times.

    Thanks to my Language Hacking method, I've become a fluent (B2+) speaker of seven languages and I'm able to have confident conversations in many others.

    You can book a 1-1 consultation with me here.

    Why did I create Language Hacks? Because I struggled with languages for years. I'm not gifted with languages. I don't have the “language gene” (if such a thing exists).

    At school, I spent 11 years studying Irish (Gaeilge) and 5 years studying German. Even after all this study, I still couldn't speak either of them.

    By the time I reached my 20's I could still only speak English.

    After college (my degree was in Electronic Engineering), I moved to Spain. “If I'm living in another country, I'll be sure to pick up the language,” I reasoned. I spent six months in Spain. I took expensive language classes. I studied every day. I repeated the same words and phrases over and over.

    But I still couldn't actually speak Spanish.

    While in Spain, I met a guy who changed my life. He was at an international party, switching from one language to another as he moved between guests.

    “How do you do it?” I asked.

    He explained that to speak a language, you've just got to start speaking it.

    There's no magic, he said. You only need a willingness to make mistakes.

    I tried his advice, and I've never looked back since.

    Within six months, I was a confident Spanish speaker. I then moved to Italy, where I started speaking Italian.

    I've since lived (at least several months each) in the United States, Canada, France, Germany, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Belgium, Turkey, Hungary, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Colombia, Egypt, India, the Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, China and Taiwan. While living in these countries, I've used my techniques to become fluent in Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Esperanto. I also speak Mandarin Chinese, American Sign Language, Dutch and Irish to an intermediate conversational level, and I was able to have basic conversations in Czech, Turkish, Hungarian, Quechua, Arabic, Tagalog and Thai.

    Learning languages has given me confidence in conversations, new friends and insight into other cultures. It's opened up new worlds for me. I set up this community so others can have the same experience.

    If you want to be an active member of the Fluent in 3 Months Community, and meet other language learners just like you, the best way you can do that is with my 90-day Challenge.

    You’ll have a 15-minute conversation in your new language after 90 days (I guarantee it), and you’ll make amazing friends from all around the world. Find out more here.
