This is the place where you get to see how learning a language can be fun.
Suffering does NOT make studying more effective; there is a lot of research and proof that, in fact, stress and anxiety block your learning abilities.
So relax.
Take it all in.
Use your interests to help you with a foreign language.
- If you are into sports, watch your favorite games in English.
- If you love music, find the lyrics to your favorite songs and follow them for a while, then sing along (in the car), and the expressions will start feeling natural.
- If you like to travel, watch tourist shows on TV, and visit web sites that have all the lingo.
- If you are a nature or science lover, tune in to PBS and watch magnificent high-definition programs, then pause them and watch again...
Learning is a process.
What we can do is make it really enjoyable.
Take a chance. Try it. All you have to lose is your pain.
