00:05 11 dot com . Lots of people like to look
00:09 for advice about ways to learn languages , but they
00:11 don't actually implement any of it . While it's important
00:14 to consider how you should approach your studies , it's
00:16 essential . You put the advice you get into practice
00:19 in this video , we're going to cover eight pieces
00:22 of advice related to learning a language . Number one
00:26 . Language learning is a marathon , not a sprint
00:29 . Our first tip is to accept that language learning
00:32 is a long term project . It's tempting to start
00:34 off at full speed and tell yourself you're going to
00:37 study for two hours a day every day . But
00:39 in reality , this just isn't sustainable for most people
00:43 , It's okay to go at your own pace but
00:45 make sure to be consistent . Even if you're spending
00:47 just 5 to 10 minutes a day working towards your
00:50 language learning goals . Stick to your study schedule for
00:53 people with a busy schedule , it can be overwhelming
00:56 to think of spending an hour or two studying at
00:58 the end of every day . But if you can
01:00 at least begin by studying for short time periods consistently
01:04 , you'll be able to establish a schedule for yourself
01:06 and maintain motivation number to make use of your spare
01:10 time , Think about your typical daily schedule , How
01:14 long is your commute your lunch break ? When do
01:17 you usually do housework ? When do you usually relax
01:20 ? If you can find a few minutes in your
01:22 day every day , you can put that time to
01:24 good use and work towards your language learning goals are
01:27 lessons are 3 to 15 minutes long , so you
01:29 can fit lessons and comfortably whenever you have the time
01:32 . If you're having trouble getting started , try this
01:35 . Open the clock app on your phone and set
01:38 a timer for 10 minutes , five of your feeling
01:40 really demotivated , choose a lesson , a flashcard deck
01:43 , a notebook for writing practice , something you can
01:46 focus on completely for the amount of time you have
01:48 on your timer , Start the timer and begin your
01:51 studies . Once the time is up , walk away
01:54 , you might be surprised how much you can learn
01:56 or review in these short periods and with a consistent
01:59 study schedule , you can make quick progress number three
02:03 commit . When many people start learning a language ,
02:07 they do it just because they think it's interesting ,
02:09 it's something fun to try and there's nothing wrong with
02:11 that . But at some point you have to make
02:13 a decision . How much do you want to continue
02:16 studying ? What's your goal with your language learning ?
02:19 Do you want to learn a few phrases and words
02:21 for fun or do you want to make real progress
02:23 and be able to do something more advanced ? The
02:26 answer to this question is different for each person .
02:29 Some people might decide they want to learn enough of
02:31 a language to introduce themselves or order at a restaurant
02:34 . Others might want to learn enough to make friends
02:37 or give a presentation once you've decided on your goal
02:40 , how do you solidify your commitment ? Some learners
02:43 do this by investing in a textbook or a language
02:45 learning program . Some find a tutor or join a
02:48 study group . It's up to you to determine what
02:50 your goal is and to commit to it . Number
02:53 four , start speaking on day one by shadowing when
02:58 most people start learning a language they begin with reading
03:00 . But in most cases our end goal is to
03:03 speak fluently . So why delay practicing your speaking skills
03:07 the sooner you begin practicing the sooner you improve it
03:11 might seem hard to start speaking on day one when
03:13 you don't know more than a few vocabulary words so
03:16 you can begin your speaking practice by shadowing or repeating
03:19 what you here . For example if you listen to
03:22 our audio lessons you'll hear a basic conversation in the
03:25 first minute . Then our teachers will slow down and
03:28 translate every word once you've gotten familiar with the dialogue
03:31 you'll hear it again . So repeat what you hear
03:34 or use the dialogue section in the lesson to practice
03:37 each line one by one . Number five 50 input
03:41 , 50 output input refers to taking the language in
03:46 listening or reading . Output refers to creating with the
03:49 language speaking or writing . Try to spend equal amounts
03:53 of time with input and output . Many learners make
03:56 the mistake of focusing on input and they never get
03:58 any practice creating with the language , integrate output focused
04:02 practice into your studies . # six read along with
04:06 our audio and video lessons . There are a few
04:10 different ways you can read along with audio and video
04:12 lessons you can use a transcript , refer to translations
04:15 and or Czech subtitles on video lessons . Sometimes it's
04:19 hard to pick up everything that's said in another language
04:22 , especially in real life situations . If you have
04:25 something to read that shows you everything that's being said
04:28 though things get a little easier . You can do
04:30 this with each of our lessons , try listening to
04:33 an audio lesson or watching a video lesson while you
04:36 do read along with the lesson notes and the transcript
04:39 . Reading along can also help you with shadowing .
04:42 So you can practice speaking to number seven . Set
04:45 small measurable goals . While it's important to have a
04:49 final goal for your studies , it's also important to
04:52 give yourself small goals that you can work toward on
04:54 a weekly or monthly basis . For example , You
04:58 might set small goals like be able to have a
05:00 one minute conversation by the end of this month ,
05:02 or learn 100 words by the end of this month
05:05 , or learn the alphabet by the end of this
05:07 week . If your only goal is master the language
05:11 , you'll likely get overwhelmed , Give yourself small achievable
05:15 tasks to complete , it's difficult to gauge exactly how
05:18 much we're progressing as we study . But if we
05:20 can track completion of our goals , we know we're
05:23 making progress and moving in the right direction . #
05:26 eight , trust the process . Our last piece of
05:30 advice is to trust in what you're doing . A
05:32 lot of people start out strong when they begin learning
05:35 a language because they're enthusiastic about doing something new .
05:38 But many people lose motivation after that initial burst of
05:41 excitement fades . If you set proper goals , make
05:44 time for your studies and stick to your schedule ,
05:46 then you just need to trust your process , know
05:49 that as long as you continue along with your plan
05:51 , you'll get results . Yeah . Remember these eight
05:54 pieces of advice are only helpful for your language learning
