Sounds just like the Language Transfer system it's the best language learning method I've ever encountered, and I speak five languages.
It's a set of MP3s, using a kind of Socratic dialogue to teach language based on the language you already know. Completely free, but please donate if you find it useful.
Language transfer has courses in French, Italian, Greek, Turkish, Arabic, Spanish, English for Spanish speakers, German, Swahili, and even one for understanding music theory!
That sounds really interesting! Thanks for that link.
The more languages you know the better that system might work I guess, like if you know German then French will we (somewhat) easier because you have already bent your brain to accept the conjugation system. If you know Italian or maybe any other language you'd be used to build phrases in other ways (like backwards sort of).
That must be true, because all of the courses I mentioned are taught by the same person, who also developed them!
