Book NowYou dream of fluency in a foreign language
You can imagine your life in another language, with its vibrant culture and new experiences all around you.
You see yourself speaking like a local, sharing bad jokes with new friends, connecting with long-lost family.
But when you open your eyes, reality sets in, and fluency feels like an unattainable dream.
You've tried everything
Duolingo, Babbel, Rosetta Stone, Pimsleur. They all promise fluency, but they haven’t worked for you.
At first you made some progress, learning new things every day, but months later, you don’t feel any closer to your goal.
You've stopped making progress
You’ve put so much time and effort into making your dream a reality, but you feel like you’re on an endless treadmill, never getting any closer to fluency.
You bounce between different tools and methods, looking for the “perfect app” to break through your stagnation, but you’re disappointed every time.
Nothing has worked, and your dream feels further away than ever.
Maybe you’re just not cut out for language learning
If you’ve tried everything and nothing works, the problem must be you, right?
You’ve begun to think that your dream of fluency will remain just that — a dream.
Stop!
You’re not broken and you’re not alone
Here's the truth
There is no “Holy Grail”
Personalized learning solutions to meet your needs
Refold has helped hundreds of language learners just like you
“I was having a lot of trouble figuring out how to fit Korean into my specific lifestyle. After the coaching program, I know exactly where to spend my time to have the most impact and the most growth. The most surprising part of the program was just how quickly the changes had an impact. My Korean ability has improved SO much since coaching.“
“For more than a year, I have been lost when it comes to my Japanese. This program is a game changer. If it wasn’t for Refold, I would have given up on learning Japanese. Now I’m excited to keep moving forward!”
“Before starting Refold, I was barely getting 15-20 minutes a day. Japanese felt like a chore. Now it is something I look forward to every day and I’m putting in 45-50 hours of Japanese each week.”
“When I moved to Japan, I was hit with a reality check. I couldn’t use Japanese and retreated into an English-speaking bubble. Refold Coaching gave me the guidance and routine I needed to break through the intermediate plateau. Best of all, I’m so much more comfortable interacting with Japanese out in the wild— even Japanese train announcements!”
“I have tried learning Japanese so many times in the past, but I could never stick with it. With Refold coaching, I learned how to make Japanese part of my life, even if issues come up. The old me would have given up, but this experience has made me so much more resilient with Japanese — and my life too!”
“The structure and guidance I have gotten from this program have made it much easier to stick to my goals and stay motivated. Now that I’m not questioning my productivity, I can relax and focus on Japanese.”
“I wasn’t sure how to use content effectively to learn, and it felt easier to stick with Duolingo. After working with the Refold team, I understand enough Spanish to enjoy listening and reading, making me do more of it and keep improving.”
“I would definitely recommend Refold coaching to people who value their time. Refold coaching has been a huge time saver for me. They helped me overcome my analysis paralysis and got a plan in place, and gave me the accountability to follow through on that plan.”
“Before coaching, I was completely lost. I was able to sit down with my coach and figure out an exact plan that worked for my schedule. Refold helped give me the confidence to learn a new language.”
“It didn’t feel like I was getting anywhere. Coaching made Japanese study a lot more accessible for me. I thought it would be huge struggle to keep consistent, but once I got into the habit of it, staying consistent was really, really easy.”
“I had been working on Japanese off and on for 18 years. I didn’t have a clear idea of the exact steps I needed to push forward. After coaching, I feel absolutely confident in my ability to achieve my Japanese goals.”
“Learning a new language on your own is tough. That’s why it’s so nice having support from the Refold Coaching Team. Now, instead of going through app after app, I know what to focus on, and I’m doing a lot more listening than before.”
What can we help you with?
Stuck
“I’ve got the basics, but I can’t break through to real comfortable fluency.”
You started off strong, making steady progress, but now you feel like you’ve hit a wall. The tools you’re using don’t seem to be working, and you’re not getting any better at the language no matter how much time you spend.
With Refold coaching you’ll:
Evan Was Stuck
Evan hoped to use Japanese in his legal practice, but after 5 years of learning, he felt stuck.
He spent years with textbooks, apps, and tutors, without success. He even got an associate’s degree in Japanese, hoping that would help him break through his language-learning plateau.
Nothing worked.
With Refold’s help, he was able to push himself out of his comfort zone, break through the stagnation, and start making progress towards his goal of professional fluency.
Overwhelmed
“There’s too many apps and tools, and I can’t figure out which one to use.”
You see so much advice, so many tools, and so many paths that you feel overwhelmed by it all. You don’t know where to start, what to do, or who to ask. You doubt yourself and think: “am I doing the right thing?”
With Refold coaching you’ll:
Hannah was overwhelmed
Hannah had always wanted to learn Japanese, but with so many different opinions on the internet, she had no idea where to start. She would overthink everything and constantly doubt herself.
She couldn’t find a clear path forward.
With Refold coaching, she has been able to cut through the noise and actually make progress toward her eventual goal of fluency.
Busy
“Between work and family, I can’t find time to study.”
You’re a busy adult with a lot on your plate, and language learning isn’t at the top of your priority list. You’d love to learn a second language, but you’re not sure how to fit it into your life.
With Refold coaching you’ll:
Gabi is busy
For Gabi, Korean is just a hobby. She tried to make time for the language, but with a demanding job, a family, and social obligations, Korean always fell to the bottom of her priority list.
Language learning didn’t fit her schedule.
But with our help, she was able to integrate Korean into her life in a way that wasn’t intrusive and still allowed her to make massive progress and impress herself.
Demotivated
“Learning feels like a chore. I know what I have to do, I just can’t get myself to do it.”
With Refold coaching you’ll:
Aron was burnt out
Aron wanted to learn Japanese, but day-to-day, it felt like a chore. It was something he had to force himself to do, instead of something he wanted to do. With a job and school on his plate, he wasn’t sure if Japanese was worth the effort.
He’d lost his passion for learning.
With Refold’s help, he now looks forward to Japanese practice as one of the highlights of his day. He loves it so much, he spends 40+ hours every week with the language, and he’s been shocked by his progress.
Who am I and why should you listen to me?
Because I used to be exactly where you are now.
My name is Clayton, and I’m the head language coach here at Refold.
Even though I’ve been a language enthusiast my entire life, I struggled to learn them. I was great at learning facts about languages, but I had no idea how to learn them. I couldn’t even have basic conversations.
I took both Spanish and Japanese in school for 2 years. I threw myself into these courses, but that effort was in vain. I still couldn’t even have a simple conversation in Spanish or Japanese.
After school, I decided to go all in on Spanish and do everything I could to become fluent. I took even more courses, read even more textbooks, and chatted with people on every language exchange app I could find. I even went so far as to move to Mexico City. Even after all that, I still wasn’t happy with my progress.
Only one thing worked.
Immersion. I discovered Matt vs Japan, a high-level Japanese speaker who learned almost entirely with immersion. Using his advice, I was able to quickly take my Spanish from halting, faltering conversations to workable fluency.
Today, 8 years later I have Spanish-speaking friends, I understand and enjoy Spanish media, and I use the language every day for work.
I struggled for years with my inability to learn a second language, but I overcame it. Now I’m not only fluent in Spanish, but Tagalog as well! When you book a session with me, I will share everything that I everything I know and everything Refold has learned about learning languages with you, so you don’t have to struggle like I did.

Are payment plans available?
Yes! You can split your payment into 3 parts for no additional charge. There is no contract and you are not obligated to continue the program if you don’t feel it’s providing you value.
However, if you do not finish the program, you will not be eligible for lifetime access to our alumni community and all future refold technology & content.
How does a coach differ from a teacher?
At Refold, we believe that to reach fluency, you HAVE to become a self-sufficient learner. There is no teacher on the planet that can walk you through every single step until you are fluent.
That’s why our coaches focus on teaching you how to learn the language on your own, instead of teaching you the language directly.
Does this work for x language?
Absolutely! We have an extensive library of resources built out for 35+ languages.
The workflows can be a bit different for each language, and some languages have better tools than others, but our team has successfully coached learners in Japanese, Spanish, Portuguese, Korean, Thai, Indonesian, and Vietnamese.
We’re certain we can help you no matter the language you’re learning.
I'm a beginner. Is this right for me?
Yes! You can split your payment into 3 parts for no additional charge. There is no contract and you are not obligated to continue the program if you don’t feel it’s providing you value.
However, if you do not finish the program, you will not be eligible for lifetime access to our alumni community and all future refold technology & content.
I have a lot of experience. Is this still helpful for me?
Absolutely! Everyone’s learning process can be optimized. Even if you’re a seasoned language learner, we can still help you streamline your approach.
One of our recent clients was already fluent in Japanese, but he wanted to improve even further. We helped him break through to the next level, approaching native-like fluency.
How does this differ from the Refold Roadmap?
The Refold Roadmap helps guide self-learners to fluency, but each learner needs to customize the guide to fit their target language, life, goals, and interests.
Refold coaching helps you integrate the language into your life by:
- Designing a daily learning schedule that fits into your busy life. We’ll help you find the hidden opportunities in your schedule.
- Make language learning relaxing and fun so it doesn’t feel like work.
- Building learning workflows customized to your preferred devices and media types.
- Hand-selecting level-appropriate content that matches your interests. We’ll also teach you how to convert your current hobbies from being in your native language to the language you’re learning instead.
- Holding you accountable to your goals until you are self-sufficient.
