]]>The first thing you can do to help improve your language learning is to watch TV shows in the desired language. Of course, at first, you’ll probably need the help of subtitles to understand what’s going on, but nonetheless, your familiarity with the language will increase and it will help you gain knowledge of natural expressions and accents.
Another excellent tip is to start listening to podcasts in your new language. There are a huge variety of foreign language or learning podcasts available, no matter what your current level. You can listen to them on your way to work, while cooking dinner, or getting dressed in the morning!
Our next tip is to keep your learning to the “little by little” approach. If you expect to learn the whole language in a week, you’ll of course be disappointed. Slow and steady wins the race, learning a new word or phrase every day.
And finally, our most important tip is: be bold. Confidence can make a huge difference to your learning progress. Don’t be afraid of people laughing at your accent—laugh along with them, and keep trying. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. That’s how you learn.

]]>Duolingo itself recommends writing new words and phrases down as you go through new lessons. You would have an easier time memorizing them this way, and you’ll be able to through them again once you’re done using the app.
Each lesson in Duolingo has five levels, not just one. If you feel you haven’t mastered them fully after passing the first level, you can always go back instead of trying to complete the entire checkpoint by quickly moving through separate lessons.
If you use Duolingo as your only language learning tool, don’t stop once you’re out of hearts. You can refill them by practicing, but short stories that will improve your reading and listening skills are also available.

]]>Duolingo needs no special introduction since it’s the most popular language-learning platform in the world. It definitely deserves this title, because it allows you to learn the basics of the language of your own choosing through a series of creative games and challenges.
Memrise is another website for language learners similar to Duolingo, which allows you to memorize words and phrases from a foreign language through a series of interesting games. It also features video clips of real native speakers to help you practice your skills.
Babbel only offers 14 new languages at this point, but it’s still worth a shot. You can tailor the lessons to your own needs and focus on each aspect of language-learning, including writing, speaking and reading.

]]>Learning new languages on your own can be tough, and picking one you’re truly interested in is a great motivational boost. It also comes in handy if you already have some basic knowledge, because it’s a great starting point.
Don’t expect to fluently speak a foreign language once you’re done with quarantine. Mastering a new language takes a lot of time, and there’s nothing wrong with taking things slow. Use this time to learn the basics, and build from there once the world is back to normal.
Different learning methods work better for different people, and it’s up to you to find your own. If using a dictionary and grammar book simply won’t cover it, consider signing up for Duolingo, watching YouTube tutorials, or having online classes with a native speaker.
