you ready ?

So today, I'm going to talk about language learning .

If you're listening this Podcast you're probably learning English, so I hope this is an interesting topic for you.

Language learning is hard and if you learn a language, you need to spend a lot of time studying

This is the most important part of learning a language - time.

If you don't spend a lot of time studying, you won't learn English.

Language learning takes time.

I am a beginner language learner.

I learn languages because it's fun for me and I love talking to people from other countries.

This is the best part about learning another language: you can talk to many people and make new friends.

I talked to people from many different countries.

This is the fun part of learning languages.

But language learning is not easy.

Sometimes, I get sad or frustrated when I can't understand somebody .

I also get nervous when I talk to people in other languages .

But that's okay; it's normal to get sad or frustrated or nervous when you learn another language.

This is normal.

Sometimes, I make big mistakes when I am speaking other languages .

I make mistakes with grammar, with vocabulary, and with pronunciation .

I am making mistakes now.

But, this is normal. Everybody makes mistakes when they speak other languages.

If you don't make mistakes, you won't improve.

To improve, to get better, you need to make mistakes.

You need to talk, you need to practice, you need to have fun.

So don't worry about your mistakes. Have fun with English.

If you don't have fun, it is harder to learn English.

so, here are some tips to have fun with English.

Number one : read books in English that are interesting for you.

Don't read boring books; find books that you like.

For example, if you like sports, read books in English about sports.

If you like animals, read books in English about animals.

And if you like technology, read books in English about technology.

I love fiction, so I read fiction books in other languages.

This helps me have fun and learn

Tip number two: Watch or listen to videos or podcasts in English that interest you.

If you love fashion and clothing, watch or listen to videos on YouTube or any podcast platform about fashion in English.

If you like cars, watch or listen to videos on YouTube or any podcast platform about cars in English.

It's important to read, watch and listen things that are interesting for you.

Okay, tip number three: make friends who speak English, and make friends who are learning English.

I know it's not easy to make friends, but it will help you learn and practice your English.

Find an English practice group in your city.

You can look for an English practice group on meetup.com, Telegramm and Facebook.

If you can practice your English with friends it will help you a lot.

Okay, we're finished for today.

Leave a comment and tell me why you are learning English.
