Bring Back Your Inner Child!
Remember when you were a kid and you’d mimic your favorite TV characters?
Without realizing it…you were studying the language.
You didn’t learn your native language in a textbook…
You learned it by watching and mimicking real native content.
So if you’re learning a new language, why would you do anything different?
But Don’t Stop There…
By 1 years old, a child might speak their first word…
By 2 years old, they might speak in short broken 2-3 word sentences…
By 3 years old, they can finally have a basic conversation…
It takes a long time – but only because they’re learning it all for the first time.
You already have years of life experience!
Use your experience and use study tools to help you progress 10x faster!
Start With Video
A child listens to the world around them – they understand nothing – but they hear everything.
Don’t pressure yourself to understanding everything all at once.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy watching the world.
The easiest way is through video.
1st Watch – Sit back and enjoy (you could even have the subtitles in your native language if you want).
2nd Watch – Turn on captions (in your target language) and read along.
3rd Watch – Break down the language.
Break Down The Language
Sentences are the heart of language – and the core of learning.
There’s an estimated goal: If you can learn 10,000 sentences, then you can reach conversational fluency in your target language.
That might seem like a lot! But the sentences could add up easily:
- I like dogs.
- I like to go swimming.
- I like playing sports.
- I like my mom’s cooking.
- I like learning languages.
Imagine learning all of these phrases with native audio!
This is what language learning pros like to call: Sentence Mining
Pick Up The Pieces
If sentences are the heart of language – then words are the blood.
Take “Run” for example, you can say,
- I like to run.
And you can imagine a person in athletic gear running along the beach.
You can also say,
- I run my own store.
It has a whole new meaning! (Even though it’s the same word.)
Every word has a definition, but it takes Context to give that definition life.
