 1. Include learning language in your daily routine

Label your stuff! Write the names of things around your house in the new language. See it, say it! Read signs, menus, and anything else you see in your target language. Make lists that stick! Write your shopping list or to-do list in the new language.

 

 2. Try speaking to someone, even if it’s you

Practice every day, even if it's just talking to yourself! Find a friend to chat with in the new language, but if they're busy, don't wait - keep practicing on your own.

 

 3. Prepare a dish using the language

Find recipes in that language! Cooking from a recipe teaches you new words and how to follow directions, all while making yummy food.

 

 4. Connect your education to your interests

Make learning fun! Use the new language for things you already like. Love social media? Browse in that language. Love books? Read them in the new language. It's faster and keeps you happy!

 

 5. Utilize audio-learning resources to the fullest potential

Listen to podcasts, audiobooks every day! This helps you learn new words and get used to how English sounds. Bonus: you can listen anywhere, anytime - while driving, cooking, or even working out!

 

 6. Use the new language to write a journal

Write about your day:

- What happened?

- What was hard?

- What did you learn?

You can also write about anything that interests you, like:

- A childhood memory.

- A favourite movie or book.

- A hobby you enjoy.

- A trip you took.

- An important issue.

This will help you learn new words and express yourself clearly.

 

 7. Enrol in courses for professional learning

You can learn some things by yourself, but a teacher and a good plan are helpful in the long run. As you get better, you'll have more to learn from and get feedback faster.
