Ira Riklis:
Today I’m speaking with Mike Jones, who completely confused me by greeting me
in Spanish. Now that we are perfectly clear that I am not bilingual, Mike, can I ask if
you were misinformed or were you being funny?
MIKE JONES:
(Laughter) You know, there is really no reason not to learn another language. I’ve
only recently begun learning the Spanish language and I was really surprised at how
easy it is.
Ira Riklis:
To my untrained ear, you certainly sound proficient in Spanish. How did you learn so
quickly?
MIKE JONES:
I know a couple of people who actually learned another language while they were
working out at the gym. Rosetta Stone lets you put everything you need to know
about learning the Spanish language right on your MP3 player. It’s not like the old
days when you got a bunch of CD’s and had to sit at the desk and study a new
language.
Ira Riklis:
So it’s something you can learn while driving or jogging? Doesn’t learning the
Spanish language get kind of boring that way?
MIKE JONES:
Not at all. You can use mobile apps to learn Spanish through Rosetta Stone. You
can access the material on your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad as well as through your
computer. And it’s not boring at all. Now you can even go online and talk with native
Spanish language speakers so that you can easily learn conversational Spanish.
You can even learn the Spanish language while you’re playing games.
Ira Riklis:
There you have it, straight from Mike Jones, who recently added to his many talents
by quickly learning the Spanish language with the help of Rosetta Stone.
Mike Jones:
I hope that the next time we do an interview, we can do it is Spanish. You really
should check out what Rosetta Stone has to offer
