Hey, I'm Ade.
I’m the guy who wasted 10,000 hours gaming, then spent 14,000 hours learning Korean through pure immersion. Now I help serious language learners do what most think is impossible—reach native-level fluency.
Five years ago, I thought language learning was impossible.
I’d tried everything: Duolingo, grammar courses, conversation apps. Nothing worked. I was that guy searching “how to learn Korean faster” on YouTube every morning, convinced there had to be a secret method I was missing.
Then I discovered immersion principles from Matt vs Japan and everything changed.
14,000+ documented hours later, I’ve studied at Yonsei University in Korean, worked in Korean politics, and shocked native speakers who ask what part of Korea I’m from. (I’m from DC, by the way.)
But here’s the thing—I’m not a polyglot making claims about seven languages. I’m just your friend who went deep on one language and figured out what actually works when apps and grammar books fail you.
Every week, I share the systems, stories, and breakthroughs from this journey with 120+ language learners who refuse to quit. Because if a gaming-addicted kid from Maryland can reach native-level Korean fluency, so can you.
The impossible becomes inevitable when you have the right method and enough time under tension.
