How to Learn a Foreign Language Tips

By George Sandler

While you need not put in more than 45 minutes learning the language in one session, try to accommodate all the extra time you have in your hands.

Split your study up into several small sessions. Attend classes regularly, if you want to pass the course and you are serious about the language. Evaluate your past learning regularly for your own benefit, for example check out the vocabulary. Here are some ideas to make the learning of different sections of a foreign language course simpler.

Grasping the written words: Check out only those words where no conjecture can help or whose meanings can not be surmised. Glance through the text book chapters every day taking one small section at a time.

Communicating: Do not be afraid of making mistakes, listen carefully to your classmates and speak up! You can start practicing the foreign language by talking to your self, talking to others who are in the same class or even with your pet dog or cat.

Scribbling: Know how to pen down ideas everyday till it comes naturally to you. Follow a dictation of the language and check how much of it you have written correctly.

Some Assorted helps: Develop a Good Attitude, have reasons and goals for studying the foreign language. Make sure you are fully aware of what your goals are and how to reach there.

1. If you need help get it and do not be afraid to ask questions or ask for help for fear of sounding stupid, or being embarrassed. There is nothing to feel embarrassed when you need help or have questions in your mind.

2. Get audio tapes of the language and listen to them or make you own tapes and listened to yourself in order to perfect your pronunciation. The only way you can have correct pronunciation is to listen to audio tapes of the language or record something yourself and then listen to them.

3. For building your vocabulary, try using flash cards which are made of different colors denoting genders or nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc.

4. If you study in groups you can also access help from your classmates.
